    Just to be clear , I am not advocating trading in  Faataape either.

    I think the sensible option is to hold trades

    Kelma is a definite trade out, the only question is who to.

    Hold the trade because in all likelihood in the next week or 2 you will have a high priced player get injured that you won't be able to trade for an equivalent.

    I've got 8 this week with 7 trades left and I'm not making any trades as a h2h player because it won't benefit my team long term. I'm just taking the L and chilling, you should do the same.

    Or ignore me and trade in some dud it will be more funny for me next week

    H2H is totally different.

    Yeah, if you have one trade left at this point, the only sensible way to spend it is to forget the byes and find someone underpriced who, if all stars align, is a potential keeper in their position. You can't really do an up-and-down trade when the "up" half is in four weeks time.

    If you're selling Kelma and have zero bank, then the list of possible keepers is Tago, Wighton and (here's the banter move) Talakai.
    Appreciate the suggestions thanks.

    Was there any actual word on the KPP injury? I'm probably trading Garrick but would likely shift if KPP wasn't back next week.

    Hands could average the same as these options for less.

    But more of a gamble on JS i suppose.. but it *seems* like hes rhe starting 9 for the rest of the year

    He should be. Lussick is catastrophic. It wasn't all him but his ten minute stint last week "coincided" with the Eels losing the lead and he was hooked shortly after, wasn't he?

    Thinking I will do Garrick to Campbell now. Garrick misses this week, next week and 22. I have enough centre cover with Aitken now and i have a H2H league I wanna win. Leaves me with 5 trades which is bloody good for me at this stage of the year.

    It was bizarre, Eels had all the momentum and then Lussick came on for Hands, gunked everything up and it all went to shit for them.

    Yeah, that's all I saw too. Toes can be tricky and problematic. Might need Kotoni on the case.

    You wouldn't think so hey. They'd arrive at best Thursday afternoon in NZ, maybe Friday morning. Knowing Kev he'll push them to play - Walsh, Carrigan and Haas.

    Its only a 3 hour flight, only an extra 2 hours than those playing in NSW and QLD.

    Definitely some risk with it. My options are kelma to porter or pole. Rewatched the tigers game focusing on porter, looked really good and got 70 minutes on the edge, so not low minutes at all. Looking for him to hold that spot until Bateman is back in r19 or 20. Plays both mid and edge, with a good chance he stays in the team until Ipap returns.

    If he fills a role the next few weeks with decent scoring, and frees up $200k for weekes to cleary in 1 trade, then becomes another cash out later, he has done his job.

    You rewatched the worst game of the year so you could manifest a 2 game bench forward becoming fantasy relevant. Never change
