Both still have some cash to make but you are getting one definite keeper and one possible keeper that will make a similar amount of cash. If you don't have another way to get JFH I would pull the trigger

Just saw that @NRLPhysio will be on Vossy's FoxFan show tonight. Pretty cool.

So, when are mods from this place getting together and having a chat with Vossy to talk about the fantasy footy community?

Milch had our 5 minutes of fame

I won the Sharks league when they won the comp here a couple years back, got a $200 voucher and it took about 2 months.
Double check your spam too as that's where i found this one

'Salmat Digital' were the ones handling it on behalf of NRL.com.au and Telstra Media. Not sure if they are doing it this year.

My trades this week Griffin>Koro and Douey>JFH

@Loomer if you can make the trade I would. Way I see it, you're missing out on about $120-150k ish rises in the two cows, but Fifita will shoot back up to his premium price, and JFH will pick up at least $200k if he maintains 50s... So not optimal trade out time, but I think the other two are only going up

Any point bringing in Kennar? His scores have been bumped by tries. I've got not Centre cover and I'm playing Isaako

Id prob wait as long as you can as a better option will hopefully pop up. The other option would be trade a forward to a gun centre and have Isaako as cover

Those who didnt start with Smith when are you planning to bring him in? After origin? I dont think he's gonna be any cheaper but will be a pain if he gets rested over origin

Thanks @Honey Badger I'll bank the trade

Don't quote me on this but I do vaguely recall Bellyache saying at the start of the year that with the new Origin layout he won't need to rest Smith. Plus with the way they're playing he will need to play 80 minutes all year, every week.

I've won stuff with VSDT, but nothing through Fanhub

Looking at trades this week, im in bit of a bind.

Currently have the following people lining up for the chopping block.

Isaako, (James Roberts is the big problem, that and the Gronkos not scoring trys)
Doughi, ( Game time and will bleed cash)
Griffen, (Game time, despite being told he would be an 80min player, might see for one more week)
RFM, (Bulldogs)
Maloney, (Allergic to defensive points)
Nichols, (was looking to trade last week, after this weeks score, has a bit more $ to make)
Godinet, (game time and overall mediocrity)
Havilli. (Finally played decent minutes, scored well, looks a hold but tempted to sell as he I stand to benefit most $$ from selling)

Four of which are in my 1-17.

Id like to try and trade two players out of my EMG, to get one decent player. At least Doughi and someone to hopefully Aitken.

Potential trades
Havili + Doughi = Aitken (To replace Isaako in starting 17) and a player @212k not sure who.

Any thoughts

Morning all, something to look at this morning. Bit quiet at work today haha

Croft has the fewest possessions per game (30.2) of any starting half this season who has started more than two games.
Compare that to the likes of Johnathan Thurston (60.6) and Mitchell Pearce (59.2) and it’s a massive difference.

Well it explains why Croft tanked to start the season, after a few mistakes early his confidence would be down and he has barely touched the ball. Saw it watching the games but the facts back this up with losses and stats.
Maybe Smith misses Cronk too much and like a boss with a new worker he is taking it out on the new guy and trying to do everything himself.
Wonder if Jacks will get a go soon?

If you could pick one, who would you go?

T. Trbojevic, P. Gallen, J. Arrow, J. Fisher Harris or C. Murray?

There's only 3 options mate.

Sorry, I added JFH in there too.
I want them all too but can only get one I think lol

In all seriousness, I have Murray and Arrow and assume they're still underpriced.

JFH is probably still possible next week at his price.

Tom Trb perhaps injury clouded?

Gallen.. He's getting old.. Where's Revs..
