Has Scott Morrison orchestrated the hiring of Nathan Brown to ship off Aussie trouble makers to NZ?!

I thought Papy was on everyone's trade list a little while a go. Maybe most ended up holding

Papenhuyzen and Luciano were two players I was definitely going to trade earlier in the season. Perhaps the one silver lining to constant chaos at CTR is I never could and they've delivered since then.

A good portion of my season so far has come down to fluking it on who I have or have not traded.

Law of averages.... Bound to happen… 106, 59, 105, 78, 1xx

DONE!

Surely this year has had the most 100+ scores? Tedesco, Cook, Leilua, Cleary twice, Ponga… anyone I am missing?

If I trade out CS9(really don’t want to but my hand might be forced as I’ll be running HTF,Clune and Sironen this week) CS9 to Brimson allows me to trade Clune/HTF to Murray/Tevaga. Would only be left with 1 trade but what do you guys think?

If you run out of trades will you keep posting your team

But seriously hold those trades.

Gutherson got 102

Not a bad option to go against the Haas’ers. Cleary’s base is well enough you know you are pretty much locked in for 55+ then his upcoming games gives you confidence with some attacking stats he can go big.

Is he a threat of being rested?

I try and not think about captain/VC beyond Haas/Cleary as it's one less decision to make in the week

Realistically they're going to score within 10-15 points of each other most weeks so advantage is miniscule

Former Test prop Shannon Boyd has been granted a release from his contract with the Gold Coast Titans and will retire to the family farm in Cowra.

Wow, find this type of news fascinating. All the best

Tempted to trade in Aubbs for Young and Ponga for Pappy so I don't have to bloody think about trades after 7:50pm tomorrow night!!

Lol trust me I have toned it down a lot this year,I copped it deluxe last year. So you would seriously be happy playing HTF,Clune and Sironen this week? Just got a feeling that it would end badly(not like I’m winning the thing anyway)

I think leaving 1 trade mate is playing with fire. You may not like the look of playing those guys, but a few weeks it will be worse playing red dots instead when you don't have trades.

You guys still think Teddy is a must have ?

He was one of their overpriced guys on big money from memory. Would be great for Titans to be able to go shopping.

Just checked, apparently on $600k/year. Wallace on $700k would be great to dump too

Yeah. Absolute dud buy. As dud as Carty.

Boyd called it quits due to injury, it had been in the works for a while. Agree he was never a good buy on that sort of money, but a shame he was never able to be at full fitness in the last year or so or either

Yeah thats right hey, the injury history. Certainly going to carve up on the farm, a beast of a man.

Only 3 scores below 50 all year. He's got more cash to drop so his bottom price is going to make him close to a must have.

Lodge out for the year
