    Option 1
    - Upgrade Fermor to anyone under 679k. Options as keepers would be Munster/Moses/Paulo/Fotuaika/Taupau... or anyone else really but those stood out.
    - Would get me 17 playing this week and run the year with 2 red dots (Wiliame/Niu)

    Option 2
    - Don't upgrade Fermor and hold the trade. Using trade leaves me with 2, holding leaves me with 3 trades
    - My bank would let me upgrade Rudolf next week to someone from 830k ish or lower. So someone like a Bateman if he drops in price/Twal/Matterson if fit/Fifita
    - Would run with 16 this week and cop it (act as if I had 17 but some backs had an off week)
    - Would run the year with 3 red dots (Fermor/Wiliame/Niu) and leaving 2 trades for injury after the Rudolf upgrade

    Having 3 trades left means its risky using them

    But if you won't pull the trigger on Fermor (0 points a week) to Moses (50 points a week) what would you use your last trades for?

    The only reason I would hold the trade is if you think Fermor might get back in the team

    Moses + Rudolf is better than Bateman + Fermor, so I think you are better off upgrading Fermor than trading someone who is playing every week and giving OK scores.

    For this week, team is:

    McInnes
    Haas Taukeiaho
    Lolo Yeo Young
    SJ Munster
    Crichton Aubbo
    Teddy Ponga Talau

    Grant Carrigan Hunt Rudolf
    Pappy Fermor Wiliame Niu

    3 trades left, 333k. Already made 1 trade of Luai to Munster. Not sure of which option to take under 679k but leaning towards Moses

    Why not just trade Fermor to Munster and keep Luai, at least for another week? That gives you 17 for the week and Luai has been going alright.

    With only 3 trades left and 3 red dots you absolutely cannot afford to trade out Rudolf while he is fit

    If you can wait until Sunday to see if Fermor plays. If he does you can bank both trades, if he doesn't you can trade to Moses

    Yeah am leaning towards option 1 for that reason - trading out fit players is a bad idea. Just the option of getting a bigger gun in made me think about it

    Will probably stick with Fermor > Moses

    From next week, team then ends up as:

    Grant
    Haas Taukeiaho
    McInnes Lolo Yeo
    SJ Munster
    Crichton Aubo
    Teddy Ponga Pappy

    Carrigan Hunt Moses Young
    Rudolf Talau Wiliame Niu

    Can loop the 17th man

    I could do that as well. Then re assess which one to upgrade out of Luai/Rudolf/Young because I'll need to keep 2 of them. Just thought the points would be beneficial of both a Moses/Munster trade in

    Agree with this. Only having 3 trades left with 8 games to go and plenty of resting to come will not end well. I'm sure you much rather be getting Luai's 30-35 points in round 17 then having Haas(or any gun) getting 0 for the rest of the year after a season ender

    Best boom/bust options under 470k?

    At the moment looking at Sivo, Ferguson, JAC, Brimson, Sami, Cotric, or Hopoate when he returns.

    Cotric with the Raiders home run might be tasty. Or surely Ferguson goes on a run of attacking stats soon?

    Not sure it has been mentioned, but Hetherington won't play against the Panthers next week.

    So having second thoughts about trading Matto out for CM9, mainly cause it feels sideways

    Post trade gives me this with $315k ITB & 6 left (about 1 less than I'm comfortable with at this stage)

    Mann
    Haas, Carrigan
    Lolo, Jazz, Sironen
    Cleary, Pearce
    Cricthon, Aubbs
    Lomax, Ponga, HTF

    Mcinnes, Hunt, JFH, Young
    Grant, Papy, Randall, Wiliame

    Not sure I want to run with 16 this week so committed to using 1 trade

    Teddy comes in soon for whoever gets most disadvantaged by the Knights & Dragons shenanigans.

    Hate having two red dots but fucked that up last week with Niu to Randall so gun shy

    Anyone spot anything?

    If Moses scores 50 and Luai scores 40, would you be too disappointed?

    I mean, you could even come out in front with Luai

    If there was two or three weeks left I'd pull the trigger, but not yet.

    Wade Graham or Brimson my favourite options. Both have solid floor and monster ceiling

    I would probably go with Fergo & pocket the $70k

    Thanks mate appreciate the thought. Will go with Fermor > Munster and re assess next week

    So is Harry Grant injured or is their a loan clause that says he sits out if CS9 has broken down?

    Blake Ferguson has gone 8 consecutive seasons scoring at least 10 tries.

    His tally so far this year is 0. I can see the temptation
    It wasn't that long ago he was one of the top averaging wingers.
