Not annoying to me in the slightest keep it coming til your hearts content.

In tribute to the Magic Number, I'm making three trades this week:

Horsburgh > Butcher
Katoa > Hetherington
Drinkwater > Ponga

Drinkwater, Katoa, Paix -> DCE, Talau, Niu

Question is whether I trade Leilua to Young and bank 236K to target JTB -> Taupau next week with still ~100K to target Ponga later on. Can also go Leilua to Taupau this week and leave a fresh slate for next week, or just hold the trade.

Any advice?

First option for me if I'm reading this right. Young makes nigh on 50k this week all things being equal, Lucy doesn't make anything unless he scores you would think. Taupau should be a little cheaper next week and JTB may even earn a little more to help.

The older ones who are familiar with the hip hop community from the late 80s/early 90s already know what the magic number is because De La Soul told us in their hit tune, "The Magic Number". You don't have to go far because the song's lyrics begin:

"3, that's the magic number,
Yes it is
It's the magic number"

Not much doubt about it so no need for further debate. Happy to help.

Original song from 70's kids show in US and would be familiar to Kiwis as was theme tune for TV3 for ages

Hello advice please.

would you go McIntyre (261K avge 30 BE 4) or Sironen ( 240K avge 21 BE -1) OR neither.

Looking to cash out and get cash cow combined.
Will sironen's minutes increase?

Thanks for all your expert advice

My trades are done got 9k to spare now and 10 trades left but all set and just hoping a very cheap half comes up the next few weeks with good job security to add to my emergencies.

Trades are:

Moses to Pearce
Rudolf to Young
Paix to Sironen
JTB to Taupau

Not gonna wait on Marty as he could go large this week.

Team is

Koro
Haas MoFo
Lucy Murray Yeo
Cleary Pearce
Latrell Crichton
Teddy Ponga Pap

Grant Taupau Carrigan Young
Sironen Niu Hammer Magoulias


Thoughts?

3 locked in.

Twal > Teddy
Moses > DCE
Drinkfucker > Young

Potential 4th

Rudolf > SmackIntyre/Herbie/Niu/Siro

Anyone still have Paix?

If Friend needs a spell this game it will be a combo of Aubbs and Butcher. While neither would set the world on fire as fire time hookers, they both have good enough ball skills that it won't ruin the attack. Over the next 6 weeks I expect Lussick to debut and probably start a game

Good knowledge

Im considering bypassing Young and instead trading Drinkwater to Herbie, to put CITB and hope for some faster cash gains with Herbie.

Means Fogarty would be my 17th man (instead of Young), trying to figure out if I can trust the Fog to keep scoring reliably

I like Fogarty, I've been trying to force him into my 17 for weeks but always bigger problems. Seems to be a 35 floor 50 ceiling kind of guy with no tries, perfectly acceptable as 17th man

On the whispers front there are talks of Roberts fullback, Thompson wing, Sami out this week but as usual I don't trust the source

Yep, until an hour before kick off. If he's not a late in he morphs into McIntyre.

StormTrooper96 wrote:Anyone still have Paix?

I just pissed him off don’t wanna see his name in my team anymore.

StormTrooper96 wrote:Anyone still have Paix?

I've tentatively done Paix to Niu (the Cowboys one) for the 100k.

Just waiting for the late drama switcheroo Tapine back to his edge and Hudson back to the bench.

I'm not sure why people are so high on Young. Other than the fact hes waiting for a suspension, he scored 53 in 90 minutes last week. Understand he will get 80 minutes for now, but in 2019 he averaged 44.8 in games over 70 minutes.

If he averages 40 he makes 65k over 3 weeks, 91k at 45, and 117k at 50. I'd bet he averages between 40-45. 91k in 3 weeks is handy and he'll be a decent scorer but I dont see him as the must have everyone seems to think he is.

How many mins for Butcher? I feel you’ll know best being a diehard Easts fan.

I’m going Young but still interested to see how Butcher goes.
