That's quite the intro

I listened to it today after seeing the post, so as well as taking on board sound fantasy advice I pondered if indeed a ball shave was due.

Thoughts on team and trades for this week? Looking at Norman > Lolo but always open to options.

Robson
Haas, Mofo
Lolo, JTurbo, Murray
DCE, Hunt
Crichton, Talau
Teddy, Ponga, HTF

Carrigan, Butcher, Leilua, Sironen
Grant, Pappy, Randall, Niu

140k and 6 trades left, pretty keen to hold tight

I like it. How many trades do you have left. Do you have a Robson plan if he becomes a 50 minute HOK?

I like it, also leaves a bit of cash for if Robson becomes a problem

My Robson plan if he drops minutes again is to make a human sacrifice to the fantasy gods to send him back to 80 mins again

Do you even know where Granville lives or would the plan be to take him out after a team run?

7 before making any this week mate. Robson should go close to his BE even at 50 minutes as to not lose to much and will sort it next week.

Got the old pen and paper out trying to run through all the scenarios and maximising coverage if I was to trade Flanagan

Might end up at the Robelgordo CS9 route and just say fuck it, it's too much work and end up holding him

I'm gonna sell Robson next week post carnage hopefully. Will see who stands out to me this weekend as his replacement

I think the Cowboys team gets cut an hour before the Saturday games start. If Granville stays in the 19 I may have to think of a plan. But will have to be another HOK, and the only viable remaining option will be Koroisau haha

FTFY

In all seriousness it's a very cheap upgrade to McInness tier considering the difference in production

Not a bad spot to end up at, makes you look wise and patient, the long game etc.. sensei stuff.

Team is good, the risk is around no half coverage, and with Grant out - looking shaky at hooker.
Next trade should be to make sure you can handle absences there. HLF in allowing Hunt to bench would be ideal

Anyone else likely to challenge McIntyre for that edge spot besides Garner? MCK, Blore?

Only other is Lawrence. At worst Bob Jane will revert back to his previous role going forward imo.

I had planned to go Butcher > Moses this week as my second trade but feels pretty hasty getting rid of a 40+ point scorer this week. Can always move it to next week

I've been considering getting FRF for weeks. Only have Haas Carrigan and Hethrington backup. Had look at SST today and lure of GK is tempting me. Was very close to getting him when we had 4 trades

Team is looking like this at full strength bringing in Mcinnes this week but plan B is tempting to cover players being rested or 1 week injuries with someone decent

Cook
Haas Taupau
Taumalolo Tevaga Murray
Cleary Johnson
Crichton Averillo
Tedesco Ponga Papenhuyzen

Grant Carrigan Hunt Mcinnes

Talau HTF Niu Randall

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Plan B Go a weaker 17 but 18th man is basically Thompson or someone similar like Johnson/Moses/Taupau would sub out pending loop

Cook
Haas Taupau
Taumalolo Tevaga Murray
Cleary Johnson
Crichton Averillo
Tedesco Ponga Papenhuyzen

Grant Carrigan Hunt Moses

Thompson Talau HTF Niu

18th man is going to matter in the run home and there isn't that much difference between Moses and McInnes for mine. I'd go with Plan B

Man I've just realised people are talking about Luke Thompson to trade in, was wondering why people were mentioning about trading in Corey Thompson. Definitely not the first Thompson that comes to my mind

Good to see we both ignored our own advice and traded in Randall last week
