This is the second time I have seen this question. I too am waiting for a answer. I can either go Macca and Best or Teddy and Fogarty!

Always the option with the super gun for me. Fuck middies

Seems like yet another centre trade waiting to happen. Happy to be enlightened as I don’t know the tigers well

20mins max. And out of the side within 2 weeks is my prediction.
One to keep an eye on re tigers is Reece Hoffman.

Aubbs playing last week but back in the reserves I think is a sign mate he's going to be hard to rely on moving forward.

Thanks mate, think you said what I was thinking it'll be the ultimate black widow move for him to be named to start last minute after ive traded him though!

Who do you expect to score highest this week out of

A) Paix
B) Luai
C) Drinkwater

P.s this lingering Leilua news is such a headache

Always a possibility. Roosters rotate a lot and that makes Black Widow double deadly.

IF the Roosters are playing their strongest 17 Vs Patra then Aubs probably not in it. JWH back so Collins guaranteed one bench spot, Liu another. Toupouniua had been absolutely killing it off the bench and offers something different, so expect him to be in even though he's named at 18. Last spot between Butcher, Aubs and Verrills, probably in that order at the moment.

But now my 50k ITB still leaves me 1k short of making this trade. But who needs centres when you have a Fui and Crichton. Right?

I made that trade last week Drinkwater ($499k) to Latrell ($497k) cost = -2k, and the week before I did Walters ($360k) to Best (372k) cost = 12k.
Both centres fixed for 2 trades and 10k !
Still have Lomax as WFB & CTR cover.

While everyone else was creaming their jeans over S. Crichton, I got Best !!

Paix will score 40, the other 2 won't

@Rabbits21 for your health and the sanity of everyone else;

Please, for the love of god, sell Magoulis to anyone starting and making money. Then walk away and don't look back !!

Averillo scoring 18 on the wing in a win inspires so much confidence

Fuck it. I'm gonna do something dumb. While everyone else is trading drinkwater out I'm gonna start him in the halves.

Im confident he swaps with DWZ mate

I just feel like the cash benefits of being able go bring in Macca and Pearce outweigh everything else

Pearce is a dice roll, his tackles way up to start season and he loves missing. Bulk KM should keep him decent. I like the punt mate

Although a week is a long time in fantasy and anything could happen so definitely not a given.

Will have 190k to spend after flicking Saifiti to Macca. Might need another cow actually

Presumably he'll be kicking too if the Bulldogs score tries. Genuinely no idea whether to go for him or the Hammer. Whoever I don't pick will kill it.

Will Hopo kick mate? I would go HTF based on TS potential mate if I didn’t already have Averillo, his role worries me, really not sure what Pay is doing with rotations

My other option is to trade in Talau take the zero and hope he’s back next week

Oh what a mess

Hoppo doesn't have a goal in his entire career, so not sure about that. Think Reimis Smith can kick? Not sure. If Pay has any sense then Wakeham comes in for Lewis anyway... he deserves a chance to show what he can do alongside a good player in Foran.

Must of been dreaming about Hopo kicking then Yea I love Foran, been a fantastic player in his prime deserves better than playing alongside a car crash half in Lewis.

Trades done for the week.

Capewell to Robson
