They play cricket in the Winter?

I’d rather the titans pass on him and spend the money else where and fix problems like our 9 and 7

Any merit in Papy and Leilua out for Talau and Crichton?

The Warriors can offer one Kodi Nikorima and one Wade Egan.

Looking at matchups hasn't always worked out well for me but Roosters have a draw including Cowboys, Titans, Warriors and Dragons coming up.

Crichton very tempting there.

Patrick Mahomes considers David Fifitas contract as tuck shop money

Proctor is one of the guys that looked good at Melbourne in their system and having star halves to run off, but looks average playing for the
Titans.

In a way trading out Papy makes my team look stronger anyway(Lomax is averaging higher than him) Do we think Talau stays in the team for good now?
This is my team after trades
Papy to Talau
Leilua to Angus

8 trades 48k

Cook
Haas Taupau
Yeo Crichton Matterson
Luai Cleary
Talau Niu
Ponga Teddy Lomax

Koro
Grant
Young
Carrigan

Sironen
HTF
Clune
Averillo

Any opinions?

Which one is 9 & which one is 7?

Anyone know what the magic number was in that high scoring round? Maybe 12,000ish?

I don’t have trades to waste on switching centres in and out. If others do have those trades to burn then they’ve obviously avoided the centre carnage this year.

If anyone does Latrell to Talau for example this week, who is to say Talau’s hammy doesn’t fuck up again this week?

Tiges gonna smash the Rabbits this week.
Since Benji was dropped, fourth best defence in the league, very very similar to the Storm & Roosters.

Between Angus and Flanno for my Mann trade. Can cover half with Luai/Fog

Proctor is class. Been quality for Titans just surrounded by shite

Yes

I kinda feel sorry for em. Brimson and ryan james arguably their two star players and both recovering from bad injuries, i hope they can come back at their best. Aside from that ash taylor is busted and you cant figure out who your 9 is going to be. Then youve got cartright, shannon boyd, peachey on silly deals.

Need to be smarter with recruitment.

Issue with Titans is they HAVE to overpay for lesser talent because they can’t get them any other way. Haven’t built decades of a winning mentality. Some of the deals are dumb but there’s a reason they have to overpay. Taylor looked a quality addition when he went there. I think Fifita is an absolute game changer but again they have to go 400k over to get him to look at them.

I'm a casual Titans fan, as in as long as they're not playing the Warriors, I usually support them and I watch 90% of their games.

Titans really don't need Fifita. If they had James right now, a solid 9, and a decent half, Titans would be likely top 7-8. As mentioned, a B Smith for $4-500k, and a Flano type half. Arrow, James, Fotu, Proctor, Carry, B Smith. That's a pack that could contest. Their descent finishers in Don, Sami, with a very safe and nuggety Thompson at FB. That team beats the bottom 8 teams 8/10 times I think

Yes, please, take them both, I'll throw Adam Blair in for free

Warriors have exactly the same issue, we've become a retirement home

The worst part is all of our talent is overseas at other clubs lol
