R5 trades Poll

If Taumalolo is out again - do we keep him another week?
McInnes in would be the only one I'd consider.

Cash out would be for Wiliame

If we want Isaako - Trbo then, Hammer or Averillo are the only affordable cashies (or I guess Tesi Niu if you want a big gamble)

I could see a case for Wiliame+Isaako to Trbo + Hammer

If we want Papenhuyzen to Trbo, then we can afford $263k for a cashout. I think its a bit sideways, but some people are talking of ditching Papy in the main thread.

Ditching Friend gives us a lot more flexibility around a gun coming in - but we'd be giving up a 50 point average to do it, so we'd want to be sure of the new target.

Otherwise just Wiliame to the most promising cashie.

The poll is all cheapies in, and either expensive (Lolo) or mid rangers coming out. Where are all the popular trade in options? Best, Mitchell etc, do also think Robson is worth serious consideration

I have both Papy and Friend and neither are close to being on my trade out list. I dont mind punting Isaako though- especially if Turbo is the upgrade target.

In the initial trade discussion nobody suggested bringing Best or Latrell in, or crucially, who we would trade out to get him in

In the interests of space and time I can not include votes on every single possible player, so I try to limit it to what people suggest in the initial discussion.

Although I did just realise that I forgot about Kurt Mann as a trade out - which changes our options a bit, if he is out for a while and we want to ditch him

Mann + Isaako, keeping Wiliame as temporary loop opens up options a bit

Mann + Isaako gives us $1,134 to spend on upgrades

I am happy to ditch Mann if he is out. Ignore the big score from the GP game where Pearce and Watson got injured early - and he is close to being priced at his average.
If he plays this week we should grab another price rise out of him, but I think he is an out in the near term.

That's what I was suggesting pre TLT

Mann + Isaako out, Teddy/Ponga + cashout in

I guess you could get away with Isaako out, cashout in and then if Mann plays, keep him & re-evaluate next week and if not named, trade to Teddy/Ponga during round - wouldn't have same luxury if you want Turbo though as Sea Eagles/Broncos first game

Edit: Actually wouldn't have enough WFB to leave Mann, would need to make move this week if removing Isaako , unless HTF wins poll

I'll start the main poll tonight.

What are people's thought on Mann?

Trade him only if he is out, or trade him anyway

Most of the targets play before him so may have to make a judgement call

No big push for Best, and Taumalolo definitely staying

Looks like everyone wants Isaako out,
Paix and Clark are popular cashouts but we have no playing WFB cover so I sort of assume that means Camo's Mann - Teddy/Ponga trade plan is a goer, which I should have made sure to include on the poll.

Hey Milchy, is there a way to make MS's votes count as double?
