My 3 halves are ARey, Cleary and Ponga

Going to have to bring one in this week. Probably Doueihi and hold Arey for a little while.

I am going to run out of trades as early as I ever have this year.

Doueihi scored pretty well in the halves if I remember rightly.  Could be a good option if he gets a few games.

See what bench bunnies have. Think ill go CS9

With no Walker/ARey and having Doueihi & Tracey in HLFs it might bump up Cook's KMs (don't know if it affects running game by possibly having to take bigger playmaking role) and with Mann and not Ponga at FB could lay on a few tries.

If no Brittain, I'm leaning towards Captain Cook

Without ARey (and partnering Walker) in Round 2-4 last year he got 43, 46, 32 with goalkicking and high KMs (340, 294, 241). Hmm so maybe that leaves Cook free to do running game

With news of ARey being out I will be playing Dearden but I’ve got no idea on my 2nd trade. First trade will be Tolman to RTS but the other could be Rein(unless Peats is out) to McInnes or Bateman. Who would you bring in first?

Team before trades

Cook
Fifita Tolman
Murray Taupau Taumalolo
Dearden Moses
Nikora Xerri
Tedesco CNK Ponga

Smith
Rein
Mahoney
Haas

ARey
Havili
Brittain
Young

Raiders Jordan Rapana takes part in Captain's run and is confirmed to return from knee injury tomorrow in #NRLTigersRaiders

What are you expecting from Watson mate?

Im in some big trouble, have ARey and Carty and that's it!

He is pretty darn expensive. BE of 85. Destined to dip below 800K sooner or later. Hoping around Origin he goes in a slump and dips around 750K.

Yeah mate, I realise I'm paying absolute top dollar for him but I need a half this week and don't want to by mucking around wasting trades on mid rangers. DCE has always been in my final 17 plans and being desperate for a 2nd half I figure I bite the bullet and grab him now. Also I think he will be a big POD over the next few rounds with everyone scrambling with origin outs and wanting round 16 players. Potentially he even ends up out of reach for a lot of coaches who are running out of trades and stays a bit of a POD for the reminder of the season.

Might be a crazy move but I need to do something to try and move further up the ranks.

With arey and ponga out, my halves will be carty and Dearden. Fucking yuck

Minutes wise I'm thinking 60 minimum. Points wise I'm still trying to figure out

Community team new trade poll with news on ARey and Ponga not playing

https://www.nrlfantasyfanatics.com/t1022-r13-trades-v2

Ok think I’ve convinced myself to go Tolman/Rein to RTS/McInnes. Then depending on ARey I can either cash out Young and turn CNK to Bateman or punt ARey if need be for another HLF and hope to bring in Bateman another way(obviously not the preferred option)

I'm hoping he's closer to a 50 average than a 30.
Really hoping he's not a Radley style hooker!

If both Tedesco and Cleary fail to back up, I am playing with 16 this week, regardless of trades.

Many people will be in a similar position, but I can see all my gains from last round are going to go slipping away.

Tep, if Teddy is out them I'm down to 16. Cant cover two WFBs being out

Holding Arey seems a bit shit. Fractured back is nothing small, that and his already bung knee and doesn’t play next bye. Think I’ll just move sideways to Pearce.

If I reverse Garrick out and remove Young instead for Dearden I'll be fine for WFB if Teddy out (Lomax and Garrick - fine being a massive overstatement). If Munster doesn't back up I'm on 16 but ST said earlier today that all storm players travelled to NZ so surely he's playing

Trying to find a solution to the arey situation atm...

Anyone looking at Doueihi while reynolds is out. Scores of 43, 46, 32 last year at HLF. Should be doing almost all of the kicking with tracey next to him too.

Handy backup for later rounds if ponga/teddy dont backup after origin

Thoughts?

Maybe Cook plays 7, and Brittain comes in at 9....









/wishful thinking.

Mbye has been demoted to the bench. Madge could look at moving him on as he is under a selection cloud and was due to be axed last week before an "injury" hit him.

Reports on twitter that Cleary will play
