Just getting it out their

Honeysett wins. Flawless victory.

My team now

Smith Brailey
Vaughan McGuire Wallace Yates
JDB Cordner Kaufusi Hess SMat Winterstien
Norman Jacks Elgey Hingano
Kelly RJennings Idris Moga
RTS Turbo Coctric Suli Hayne

Backs need work, hopefully just move Sione there soon for some consistency and maybe get BJ if his price keeps dropping

Thanks man.

I was trying to be sneaky and get some advice without having to post a pic again [as kermie said - it's not easy being green...]

Have at it!!

I'll take a stab at some analysis, working from the bottom up.

WFB: RTS, Rapana, Dugan. Sweet as, should all be keepers. Abbey is fine. Don I'd think about grabbing the cash from, isn't a lot, but it's something.

CTR: Croker and JRob. Again, should be keepers. Suli and Moga can also provide some much needed cash for the forwards.

HLF: JT and Austin. I'd stick with for now. JT is a gun that I usually target after origin, I wouldn't trade him out now though. LCroker is a dead spot, but not sure of any cows.. Jacks would cost 70k and I think your forwards need it more right now. Hampton is at least playing, just needs 1 decent score and could make some cash.

SR: Really need some work here. JDB is fine. Capewell and Hess temporarily doing the job. Arrow somewhat useful for support.. but would look at turning Stimson into someone.. Yates maybe? Is scoring consistently and reasonably priced. Elliot's on limited minutes, but maybe has some cash to make after his previous 44?

FR: Wallace is fine for now. So some massive Raiders bias here with Boyd, Lima and Priest to round it out. From my limited experience, I usually avoid Raiders forwards as I see their pack as being too stacked.. Minutes seem restricted or vary too much week-to-week I guess? Whitehead has proven himself though, so I will get him this year. Priest is making some cash though, so that's fine. Boyd I'd look to upgrade to a gun.. Raise the cash for JBrom next week? Lima also with some spare change if you can find a basement FR that's playing.

HK: Cam fine and Clydsdale probably has to sit until a cow comes up.

Not much in the way of players to recommend or such, but hopefully some food for thought.

Edit: For another possible player recommendation, Felise Kaufusi is also scoring consistently like Yates and still on the cheap side at 281k.

WOWSERS!

Mmm who to trade this week.... ?

Guerra and Austin massive headaches for me each week so far

Cleaner than a Paige/Xavier Woods/Brad Maddox threesome

What a shitty week
Dropped around 4K spots with Yates and Jacks on my bench. Capewell looking like a decent trade in
This week Munster>Mannering and have the cash to consider Sironen>Whitehead
Hopefully Norman ET Talakai come back and give my 17 a much need d boost

I had to strengthen my ctrs & wfb's so I'm looking at these trades:
Suli out - Capewell in (via Sione)
Phythian out - Ponga in

Smith, Brailey
Fifita, Wallace, F. Kaufusi (Musgrove)
JDB, Surgess, McGuire, Yates (Capewell, Winterstein)
SJ, Lamb, Jacks (Field)
Sione, Kelly (Talakai, Idris)
Gutherson, RTS, Ponga (Cotric, Abbey)

Thoughts & thanks.

MATE. Full credit, 110%!!!

This is some sterling advice!!!

You know there's an opening at the Tige's now then eh?

Thank you for your efforts, I'll get back to the drawing board now.

Keep up the bantz too - this site rocks!

Whats the likelihood of bodene getting back to an 80min player?

Score last week was inflated with try and ta and still only 40 in 67min

No worries mate, hope it helps Also, I noticed I wrote your CTRs as Croker and JRob. Meant Leulia and JRob, both are still keepers.

My advice to the Tiges is to sign Cleary and Cleary, lose Brooks :p

Think anyone could give me some advice with my team here? Trying to turn it around this year

Was planning on trading Moses for R.Jacks this week (He still has good money to make right?) and maybe getting in Bodene Thompson and/or Whitehead in the near future if they look like they will make a bit of money.
But mainly getting bad scores because of halfs (and didn't see the ET DNP).

If Holmes is named on the wing again is it a no-brainer to switch to slater?

@robloomes i would go moses to jacks, he still has plenty money to make until munster comes back week 9ish.

then i would proabbly move smats to your ctrs and treat yourself to a nice second rower in place of fusitua. this second decision is based more on secure points for that kind of money

Want to give ET another week to see if he gets the 80 back but I can go ET - Mannering and Moses- Ponga via CWalker? with enough $ left over to go Siro - Whitehead next week?
