I'd say Mclean or McGuire are the ones that really step up as senior players more than anyone else.  

I forgot about Mclean. Molo could start lock though, unless Asiata gets that spot.

I like Mcguire.
Klemmer is currently my favoured trade in for Lolo, but McGuire is also in strong consideration

I have 4 left and still I don’t think it’s enough with more carnage to come.

I'm sure things will ramp up this afternoon.
I've got 2 trades left:

Upvote: Taumalolo & Siro => CS9 & Twal
Downvote: Taumalolo & Siro => Cook & Twal

I keep switching up my Lolo trade between (Bateman, Matterson and Tohu) to see how i feel about each buy and I was slowly being swayed by Tohu and then realsied I'd own the whole Warriors back row, that cant be good right, even if Katoa is a 17/18 man loop? Might go Matterson just to avoid something that doesnt even matter. Fantasy superstition :/

I hate the fact that I might have two players named Eisenhuth in my team once trades are done. Nothing against the name, just two players with the same same is going to drive me a touch insane

Matterson was incredible the other night. Like Rabbit mentioned, I too get a bit concerned with his HIA history and even after one tackle the other night he looked a little dusty. He's a garunteed 60 points though really and his ceiling is massive. I think I'm talking myself into him. Not sure I like owning both him and Brown though.

I don't think you can just call it superstition, if Warriors completely shit the bed one match your team could be in a bit of trouble

Usually would've made a couple of posts about my team by now, but waiting for TLT for a change before I start fretting haha.

Could be worse with 2 Sione Katoas

I here you, but I was going over all the top 2RFs and everyone has spent time on the sideline this season. I Understand the reoccurrence of a concussion might have more of a chance of happening though.

Go Tohu mate that’s what I think I’m leaning towards, jump on the Tohu POD train.

You can still post mate re what you’re thinking then just do it all again later

Yeah he's beasting it but don't find him that exciting to watch.  Plus if I don't get a front rower I'll need to use 2 trades.  Will see what team lists throw up.

Just completed laborious task of 1st place trades in my Cash league. He is 183pts ahead with 2 trades left. Sold Haas last week and has Lolo. Can make 17 with HTF but emergency 4 are low value junk. Now need to do same again for 2nd place

Just had a look at how far behind first place I am in the open leagues I'm in. Will be interesting to see if I can make inroads by the end of the season.

Overall: current rank 87, 354 points behind
Titans: current rank 8, 311 points behind
FOG: current rank 13, 255 points behind
Robdog Memorial: current rank 2, 211 points behind.

Can anyone please talk me out of Lolo to Twal?? i see no love for twal but his DPP turns me on. Can someone talk me out of it?

This is my dilemma also. Would love to trade in a 2RF, but need a FRF. Considering punting on Twal to get back to his pre-injury form - even with the Panthers this week

Quite a few Titans players near the top this season.
Have you been gaining ranks the last few rounds?

Am I being dumb by asking what FOG is?
