    Clark probably has better scoring potential but lacks job security while Paix doesn’t seem to be able to score as well but has better job security. I’ve got no clue which way to go so can someone please convince me one way or the other.

    If I dump Taumalolo I’m looking at 2RF guns who have scored less than their usual seasonal average

    Guys who are averaging well above already will ultimately scores less over remaining season to maintain their usual seasonal average. Taumalolo for example averaging 71, highly unlikely he maintains that so remaining games he’s going unders rest of the way

    So I’m looking at guys like JTurbo/Murray. Both 55+ average players currently averaging under 50 after 3 rounds. To reach their usual seasonal average they are going to have to average over 55 from now until R20, I think that makes sense lol

    I think I will be working from home today with a sick child so will try watch the replay.

    I watched it yesterday. He looked alright, a willing defender. Hard to make much of 20 mins in first grade when the game is already over and the Cows were well on top. Service looked reasonable in the short time the Titans had the ball.

    Q CUP/NSW CUP stats are difficult whenever someone changes clubs. His NSWRL profile disappears when he left Warriors and joined the Titans. I haven't figured out yet if there is a trick to grabbing them (eg the stats still exist just not publicly viewable), although I probably don't care enough to bother investigating.

    Murray is straight into my team with that news. No question.

    Just makes me feel less apprehensive about ditching Lolo.

    Only real question for me now is Paix or Clark, will just wait on Broncos cutting their team to find that out. If there's no Dearden, then going with Paix.

    Paix because he is less likely to have significant competition and plays in a better team.

    I'm thinking that Clark could probably score really nicely. But the Titans are an absolute disaster zone. You have no idea what could happen by next week. It just seems so risky for a guy who will only make ~70k in the next few weeks.

    If you jump on Paix he will most likely get 4-6 weeks of really decent price rises. He might make slightly less cash, but you're not gonna be stuck worrying about him playing each week.

    Neither of these guys is going to be the next Grant, probably more likely to be what Brailey would have been if they didn't jack up his price before the season started.




    Can't wait to be reminded of this in 2 weeks when Clark is the Lawrie and Paix is the Host.

    The pack Paix plays behind, and feels like better job security, tips it in his favour for me.

    Easy enough to see the Titans have Peats come back in a week or two to see if he's had a bit of a rev up from being dropped.

    Ok douchey brag out of the way first, I’ve fluked my way to 9th overall so far

    This is my third year and normally I’ve prioritized my H2H league (Watson got -7 second half against the panthers last year playing hooker in the last game to lose me my GF by 6.. still salty!)

    I feel like the Taumalolo decision is a decent one for overall points vs ceiling come GF time. For the more experienced players on here have you ever prioritized H2H or do you just try and look after your overall rank with your fundamentals of making cash and jumping on landscape changes and let the H2H look after itself?

    For example this week if I don’t trade out lolo I’d have to lose Su’a who still has money to make to get a captaincy option in like cook or haas. Haas I’ve avoided based on playing H2H as I wanted a money maker potentially and expected haas to stay roughly where he was to grab later having missed out on his points but likely with a slightly higher bank than someone who started with him

    Very interested to hear some wisdom as I have a few trade scenarios lined up

    All you need from Paix or Clark is one lucky dart and cash will really flow. Paix for me due to apparent security.

    Just need to pick the right one, hopefully one can become the next Grant/Garvey

    I was taking the piss but appreciate the response and agree 100%. Neither are bad options but I like the security of 4-6 weeks and find it hard to see how someone who is a decent defender on paper and likes a run could score less than 25 regularly playing starting hooker

    Why the Mofo love? He averages around .88ppm which drops to .82ppm in games over 50mins.
    If he plays 55mins that’s 47-48ppg.
    Underpriced yes, but not a gun?

    Does one 75pt game tell us something has changed?

    Only interested overall. 96th atm was early adopter of sell Lolo but I can keep Lolo and still get Teddy and Yeo by selling Horse and Brailey who I think are only mid 40s scorers anyway.

    Surprisingly on FB many have adopted sell Lolo and I feel I've got more resistance to selling Horse just because Bateman news

    P.S. well done on early rank

    Do middle players traditionally struggle against the storm? Looking for a reason to keep horse and wisdom on waiting a week to see how the dust settles with Murray or not

    I need 2 cashies to keep Lolo and Paix will be one. Based on Paix vs Clark comment I think the second should be Clark. Really not fond of Fogarty or Clune

    I think you could make a play for Overall and you should, to be honest though with no byes there isn't much of a difference between H2H and Overall this year as you want the best team you can get as soon as possible. Well making as much cash as possible.

    Murray with 51 BE won’t rise too much likely

    At least I hope anyway as I’m looking to get him next week (need around 50-60k positive difference between Luai/Rudolf + Drinkwater/Mann to go to Murray & Paix)
