Besides being benched today he’s not that consistent.
Although take his 2 x 11’s out and he averages 60. The mid 40’s are a bit annoying.

He’s about to lose a ton of cash so it’s now or never if trading him out.

Surely have to stick now. Unless your flush with trades.

Playing you in my filthy league and it could be very tight!

JTurbs + 117 + new WFB (maybe Tedesco?)

vs

Nathan Brown, Shaun Johnson and Damien Cook (my cap) (+ maybe Tedesco if that's not who you're bringing in)

Yeah it is Tedesco, finally got him in. I need to win because I am outside the 8. Easily the toughest league I am in. In all of my years of Fantasy I don’t think I have been in a league where I have missed the 8! I am in the big time now

It doesn't make any sense trading him now if you didn't trade him while he was suspended

In a way it's probably a good thing that he's coming off the bench because he should play out the game after coming on circa 25 mins

Also Sharks are renowned for late changes of their props on gameday recently so is it actually guaranteed he's bench prop

If Api makes the bench I'll trade Fainu to DCE. Was a trade I planned to make eventually to get some halves cover so no harm done

I could trade Fainu to Brown instead of SST this week. And take CNKs 45 for 17th man

I'd always planned to trade Fainu when Api returned but I'm going to hold him a few weeks I think and see how he goes. I still think he gets 50 minutes, scores well and doesn't spend 30 minutes gassed and shedding points for missed tackles.

DCE or Moses will outscore a 50 minute Fainu over the remaining rounds by enough that it is worth the trade imo

With a BE of 17 Fainu is a hold this week for me. Api or not.

Im pretty confident in a 55+ from Fifita. No real reason. Just think he will be in everything

At this stage of the year I would rather 20 points than 20k

The Storm have suffered a massive setback with Origin forward Christian Welch ruled out for the season with a ruptured ACL to his right knee.

Poor bugger.

They're also 100k and 200k more expensive, respectively. Trading up makes sense if you have that money lying around but I've already spent my savings elsewhere. I can afford to let Fainu float around 17/18/19th for the next few weeks though as I have decent depth

Agree with this. Think he’s a hold unless you have loads of cash and/or trades.

My plan is, if Api plays I can move Fainu to 18 pre-game. If he goes off anyway, cancel SST/Brown to get his score. Otherwise I think I need the cash generation for an upgrade in 2-3 weeks more than a 600k player to be 18th/19th man now.

For a lot of people, this would be their last trade, making BE irrelevant

Depends on your situation I guess.
I’m only interested in H2H so cash generation and late trades are key.

Have Brooks and CNK at 18/19 so can't even get a look at Fainu

Edit: Actually I lie, I can look at Fainu and if he scores well I can just hold trades this week.

Hovering over Brown as a trade in for Fainu.

He's also become a bit PODdish. I think MTB's site was saying last week that 4.5% traded him. I don't know how to objectively convert that to the current amount of people still playing, but it could be maybe 30%?

Off the bench he might play 40 or he might pay the game out. It doesn't matter for him. He could even up his attacking stats coming on after 20/25 minutes.

Yep slightly podish.

The dream with Fainu is that Manly release Api to the dogs and he doesn’t see another game.
