I guess i need to match with who's most urgent to trade out?

Mitchell
Croft
Mikaele
Lowe


Leaning towards Pangai just for the thrills

No offence but why on earth is Lowe in your team? Solid player but not Fantasy relevant

1. Guler and Young > Papalii and Fermor
2. Guler and Young > Taupau and Butcher
3. Guler > Taupau (1 trade)

Go option 3. Trades are at a premium where you are and you will run out soon if you keep max trading.

And now for a more helpful post,I would be shifting Latrell for Edwards or Tauk if you can manage it. TPJ could be a bold play though

I need to sell Averillo to raise money for Croft -> Hunt (3k short of doing it in one trade, which sucks), and since I'm quite short of forward depth but have plenty of backs, my thinking is to get Hetherington for that dual position cover and the fact that if the Panthers call him back, it's because they need him to play.

I wouldn't be playing him in my 17 unless I literally have nobody else but as a cashout, he doesn't seem half bad and seems good for at least something.

Getting decent minutes .... and crap scores. Must be better options out there. Sironen seems ok for 30+ minutes per game with high PPM, likely an injury away from getting a start and big minutes.

Sironen is the main other option, and I definitely like him better as a scorer. Only downer is that he's almost 50k more.

I've been looking at him for the same reasons, for that FRF/2RF bench cover and cashout, but I was going to pose the same question you have because I don't know a lot about how this loan deal works and what the rules are. And what the deal is with the Warriors troops coming back like Tevaga and Katoa, but also with these guys that are headed back to NZ.

Decent enough. Rapana can usually eke out a 30 on run metres and busts as an 80 minute winger.  

Thanks mate that’s what I was thinking too. Scared shitless that this would leave me with 6 trades but having Luai long term and/or having to play HTF scares me more I think.

Yeah, it's a bit of a mess.

I'm also having second thoughts about Bunt, not sure I want to trust Mary to keep playing him for 80 mins each week. If he does play 80 every week, then he's 100% a gun and must-have but idk. As it stands now, if he is named on the bench tomorrow, then I will stay away, hold my trades this week and then jump at Munster or Moses in a week or two.

I basically have to weigh up the risk of going for Bunt and having him not play 80 vs the risk of waiting an extra week or two for Munster/Moses

I know LOL. Needed a gap filler for a couple of rounds.

Luai is a hold at least for the next 2 weeks, they've got the Cowboys and Titans coming up. I would only sell him if you can't sell anyone else to avoid playing HTF

I got Hetherington 2 weeks ago. Don't bother. His 20 points may come in handy if I have a late out but that's it. Won't make money. He's been good on the field though and would have had a 29 if he got that try which would have looked more decent but there's not much upside.

Only other way would be to sell Taupau I guess.

48k bank

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

Koro
Grant
Young
Carrigan

Sironen
Clune
HTF
Averillo

The forward cover also is only handy if you don't have someone like Carrigan in your 14-17

I wasn't looking for money making, just someone who would get me a few FRF points in the unlikely event that one of Haas or Carrigan (my only props) was a late out. So it's more about whether he keeps a job for the season, even if it's only 20 points.

But then you have a week like about 3 weeks ago, where I had 5x2RFs and 3 were out on the same week.

Will see what TLT throws up. I think I'm leaning towards no trades.

Probably good for selection, but probably not for performance. I'd bet they get belted by the Dragons.

We owe them after that shocking performance earlier this season. Dragons by 36.

Actually with all this RTS and Dedwards talk, why is nobody getting on Duftman. Absolutely carving it up. 75 locked in against a coachless Dogs.

Fk it... just gonna go Latrell>RTS and Su’A>Hunt ... Ponga just gonna have to wait and maybe he will lose a bit more cash before I bring him in idk... this is my toughest choice this season.

Cheers for the birthday wishes lads. 28 this year, but sound like I am 12 though and a hairline of a 48 year old. Its a curse really.
