Ok here is my team before any trade

Smith McInnes
Fifita Brown Taupau Eisenhuth
Taumalolo Gallen Crichton JDB Surgess Fai
Pearce DCE NuBrown Hampton
BJ Scott Fuimaono Kelly
Munster Mansour Edwards Hayne Phythian

If those are the only options i'd probably save the trade.

Tempted to play Fui because a) its the Warriors and we suck and b) he plays first so less AE risk if both Dufty & BJ pull out.

EPL is more for shits and giggles though. Don't take it that seriously.
Am in an offline EPL auction comp I try to do well in, but I've stuffed my team there 2 years in a row.

Take my fantasy A-League a bit more seriously. Have come top 20 there twice in recent years.

Well done on the top 20 finishes, that's solid effort.

I kinda loosely follow the EPL and the A-League...not close enough to have a go at the fantasy side of things.

Can you turn Hayne into ted by cashing out someone? Even chn to Murray may be worthwhile

I can but I wasn't sure how well Ted would score against the Roosters this weekend. I need to win this round.

I don't know a great deal about SC however Dufty may not be long for this world.

Munster down there is a great start, Radradra isn't someone I'd be going for. He's been pretty average for awhile what makes you think he's going to turn it around now? What about someone like Teddy or Nofo?

I guess I thought radradra may score well against the Titans, who seem to be falling apart. I can afford Ted but I thought he may not score too well against the Roosters. Seems I'm judging teams rather than players, eh? I'll go back to the drawing board, thanks guys

Who to start?

Waqa Blake. Matthew Wright.

Leaning towards Wright.

@Honeysett
Thanks, I'll do it!

Didn't end up making moves on Sash's team last week as I didn't have the cash flow to make the moves for the advice given, and I worked Thursday which messed me asking again.

Now... what should we do?




Musgrove out to a DPP NPR makes the most sense for cash and then Sione/Fuimoana out for any WFB priced at or below $448k (Assuming Fuimoana out.)

Fui or Smat

Semi, Walker or Mansour ?

Read on twitter apparently there are 4 out for the Dragons tomorrow night. Two at training and another two due to illness

Dragons or Titans? I assume many players are sick of Haynes shit.

I thought there were several players backing Hayne for some stupid reason?

No you are right. I think it was Taylor and Elgey who have openly backed Hayne. I doubt any player would openly come out and slag Hayne though.

Apparently those 4 dragons players may be out... well I'm screwed if 3 of those 4 are the obvious fantasy relevant players.

Dragons in my squad are Dufty, JDB and Vaughan.

Dufty - I can switch in Fuimaono or BJ.
Vaughan/JDB - reverse Taupau ---> JT13, then trade whichever is out to JT13.
Vaughan & JDB - JDB traded to JT13 + trade Vaughan to someone like Fifita/Graham.

I have three trades before my Taupau to Taumalolo trade + I have a little bit of depth.
I am OK with these rumours.

Oh shit, I just realised McInnes as well.

Who to trade him to if you already have Smith? Friend?

So is there no news on who these Dragon players are? Difficult to plan around then.

Yeah lots of tweets flying around asking the same thing and lots of journos passing the "4 out" message on but not expanding on who.

Good chance we should know by tonight, surely.
