Also, means he is more unlikely to force his way back into team with out injury?

Trying to find players I can bring in for Sorenson

I'm pretty sure I'm grabbing him. but its more because I need the cash than the need to have him in my team

won't be playing him (depending on fitness test for guys like RFM and whoever else is in doubt this week)

Why Watson over Lamb? Priced much cheaper and should make cash just as quickly until Pearce is back.

Soooo lettts goooooooo! (Also you are considering two upgrades this week and two again next week. How much cash do you have.

Here are your main trade out options:

So Maloney is a must trade imo. BE of 40 and highest score with Cleary being a 27. Unless you think Cleary is getting reinjured (Which you shouldn't rely on) He will lose cash this week. So you're right in trading him out. ARey fixes your halves, you could grab Cleary or Matterson. Matterson is probably the least injury concern wise. Unless you want that PoD in Arey.

Kikau/RFM/Murray/TPJ can all wait a week imo. They are heavily owned, not losing much cash, with great potential. Murray is probably worse off as he is less likely to have a massive game off the bench than say Kikau. Either way I would hold them both this week.

Isaako/JMK have capped out unless they have a big game, but aren't losing cash. So you could trade them this week, without too much of an issue.

Cogger/Sorenson aren't doing anything for your team. I would trade one of these guys out this week. If you can for the WFBs you mentioned or for a 2RF you mentioned. Fifita is the best option then probably Tedesco. I wouldn't go Trbojevic yet he is a wait and see with the recent slump.

I'm getting both atm. My trade scenario is at the top of the page if you wanted to critique??

Random wrote:

Yeah I like both trades to get the cash in the bank. Sitting on everyone for a week is fair enough option as most people have them. Your team is looking pretty stacked at the moment.

You'd think Cleary and Maloney would split everything a little more first week back.

Random wrote:

His BE is 41, in 3 of the 8 games without Cleary he didn't hit it. In his 3 games with Cleary his best was 27.

Meanwhile Kikau in his first 3 games averaged 40 minutes and scored above his BE in two of those games.
