    Have gone Rein and Sorensen > DCE and Martin at this stage with 19 trades and 107k left.

    Cook
    JFH, Fifita
    Taumalolo, Trbojevic, RFM
    DCE, Matterson
    Aitken, Hiku
    Teddy, Ponga, Thompson

    Kikau, Murray, Martin, JT
    Griffin, JMK, Isaako, Cogger

    Still unsure on the DCE trade with everything that's gone on today with Smith. There is still a chance he plays Origin it seems :/

    Serious thoughts on Brimson? Looking to bring in a cow now that Fonua screwed my plans up. He is not going to be a repeat of Cogger is he? Cannot afford to waste another trade like that. Someone who's followed him chip in?

    I'm intrigued by the range of trade options being thrown out this week.

    I'll chuck out a pre trade team and see if I've missed something.

    Cook
    Fifita, Arrow
    Taumalolo, RFM, Kikau
    DCE, Matterson
    Aitken, Hiku
    Teddy, Ponga, Walker

    Murray, Havili, JFH, Martin
    JMK, Brimson, Sorenson, Smith

    Havili/JMK > Lamb/Fitzgibbon are the planned trades, will leave me with 17 trades and 20k.

    Anything else anyone can spot?

    Not for me personally. I fell for the Cogger trap thinking he had good JS for the short term and it burnt me. Elgey and Carty can come in at any time to replace Brimson.

    Agreed. He looked solid but who knows what happens if titans lose a couple more

    I like Brimson. Shows some guts in defence and has a nice scoot. I love scoots though. Im a sucker for them. If only JMK would scoot... mmmmmm

    They can't bloody tackle. Or is it, they refuse to tackle?

    I don't rate either of them personally but also don't know much about Brimson. He's apparently a better defender than both of them but I don't think he exactly secured his spot in the side last week. If he's solid this week then his JS will only get better. I can't see him scoring too highly with Ash Taylor leading the team though. Elgey has always struggled to score points alongside Taylor.

    I think so, would love hingano going into 6 meaning Havili would be another good interchange pick, but I think you are right

    Don't Elgeys negatives (missed tackles) ruin any good score he might get week to week.

    I'm no expert but I think less missed tackles and the odd attacking scoot should mean he averages around 30 which is fine for a base pricer

    Williams played mounties last week irrc. Would just slot in I'd imagine. Although we're useless anyway and since he was the one to produce our only decent kick in the weekend I'm lobbying for whitehead to go there. Would be entertaining if nothing else and we know he can tackle Razz

    If they did that though I'm almost certain you'd get someone like garvey on the bench.

    Haven’t read any of the last 20 pages, but here’s my viewpoint.

    Cameron Smith - greatest hooker and captain in the history of the game. Will be an immortal.

    Just proved himself a Prima Donna. Lip pout .....”you can’t bin me, then suspend me. Fuck you. Get your own origin.”

    QLD’s hooker will be Macca. He has earned it.

    Hunt half.

    Morgan 5/8.

    Munster FB.

    NSW - 3 blot. Let the 10 year dynasty begin.

    Fuck QLD cheer rabbit Laughing Laughing
