i've got a script that pulls the same data but haven't been bothered to make it easily readable.

Leilua is still in 140 of the top 1000 teams (i think thats as of round 8 completion though)

Cheers lads

Lucy & Mitchell to JFH and Niu gives me enough bank to turn Mann into Teddy next week

(can cover Mitchell with TT this week)

Mid week delusions or legitimate food for thought?

Wests Tigers have confirmed back-rower Luciano Leilua will be ready to face the Rabbitohs after being cleared of lasting damage from a head knock.

The Tigers also expect young prop Sam McIntyre to be fine for Friday's clash provided he passes concussion protocols.

Feel weird not making trades this week. Main reason is because I can't really afford to but second reason is because I have a healthy 21 and all my cows are making money and have a single digit BE (Except Crichton - 12ish).

Feel like going into next week with 13 trades will be a pretty big advantage that should help me down the track.

I’ll make no trades or bring in Norman. 

Not sure just yet. Will leave with 10, on the brink of no return haha

I am in between a rock and a hard place. I have 13 left, not looking at making any this week but I have 15K itb so I need my cows to either make a lot of cash or a cashout to become available as one of my cows peaks very soon to be able to start bringing in some more guns. Mid rangers on the trade out list are Young, Butcher, Lucy. The step to the guns shouldn't be to big if these guys can make a bit of coin over the next month or so.
Talau and Lomax can probably stay as my main CTR's all year (mainly Talaua, Lomax was never leaving).

I don’t have a lot of cash in the bank for this week. 

Cows making cash for me atm are Luai, HTF, Niu but in small amounts. Mann, Leilua, Butcher possibly need upgrading at some stage. So it’s all very tight. Will still end up missing on Lolo, Cleary, and a Cook/CM9 type so yeah kinda sucks

Got Drinky in the loop vs Roosters. What could possibly go wrong ?

Didn’t get any bites before but what do people think of Stefano? Should get a bench spot for a while with Kaufusi and Stone both suffering broken hands. Would be a bit of a cash grab for Clune who had stalled now in his price rises

I didnt see your post but saw the injury report about the broken hands, have brought him in this week. Should get what, 25-30 mins off the bench? Looks like he has huge wraps on him from what I can find

Ditch Sione or Latrell from my centres? I'm just leaving talau there and ditching one for RTS.

initial thought was sione but he will score much better and more consistently than latrell once he's back and I can cover him temporarily with niu

allows haas and RTS in

I was going to say hold but I love those ins. Do you have any coverage outside those 3?

Actually just answered my own question because you have Niu. A centre rotation of Sione, Talau, Niu is perfectly acceptable, although we don't have any news on Sione

You have to factor in Nathan Brown being back takes some of the mins that would otherwise be available with bench forwards injured

Against Roosters when Brown last played, INT minutes were 31 Kaufusi, 36 Niukore, 12 Terepo, 10 Stone

I imagine Gower would take Kaufusi mins which would mean Stefano would be left with lower mins (1 stint with RCG & Paulo playing 2 stints)

Team is

Cook
Fotu Carrigan
Lucy Lolo Young
DCE Pearce
Talau Sione
Ponga Papi Latrell

Friend Grant Api Mann

HTF Luai Niu Shiba (still been keeping for now for looping and hoping he comes in at some point)

450ish in the bank

Original plan was mann to tevaga and lucy to fifita in a week or two but tevaga on the bench means I can probably wait til I cash out luai to grab him?

See a better plan?

I'm coming to terms with never owning teddy and haas at 950 vs teddy at 905 is a winner for haas no doubt

another option is keep them both and do mann to tevaga and shiba to RTS and get haas after the luai cash out instead

Didn't factor in Brown, but Taka is on the bench this time, I know he can rotate in the pack on occasion, but hopefully is more for outside backs cover than anything else

You are looking in a decent position with only really 17th man and 2 second row spots needing to be upgraded. I see Latrell to RTS as a 5-10 point per week upgrade, while losing a little flexibility

Then being able to grab Haas, move Carrigan back to bench for coverage is fantastic. Can wait a little while on Tevaga and move young for him via Luai, plus having a little cash left over

Get Haas mate. He won't be any cheaper this year than what he is now.

Yeah you could be right,I could just be being optimistic as I see Gower playing no more than 30,Niukore will probably play around 40 if Brown plays around 60. I think a lot could come down to Takas minutes as he only played his 20 minutes last week as they were giving Jenko a rest. There has been another occasion this year where he sat on the bench the whole game so all in all(in my head anyway) I think Stone and Kaufusi being out will only help Stefano and his potential game time. I’d like to think he would get at least 30 minutes

Yeah mate at least 30 minutes I think he will get. Big wraps on the kid although it must be said I’ve only seen him play a few times. Signed with the Tigers for next season so I guess this gives them a preview into what they are getting(P.S you’re only playing cos we have injuries Stef,we didn’t want to give you FG experience before you left as you chose not to re-sign with us)
