I think Twal will be good for the run home so I'm not talking you out of it.
Plenty of tackles to be made in the last 5 games for the Tigers (Penrith, Manly, Rabbits, Storm, Eels)

Why would you want someone to talk you out of a decent trade on paper?

I'm not considering him simply because Madge has historically screwed my fantasy team more than any other coach. Dropping players on a whim, messing with minutes.

Yeah Madge is a good argument against picking Twal

While Madge loves to chop and change, I think a fit Twal is pretty safe.  He has talkled him up on numerous occasions.  Will be surprised if he's not named number 13 today.

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

hovering around the top 100 since Rd 10. Got 4 trades left (after getting rid of Lolo) so hoping that I might make some ground if others have run out.

How many trades have you got left?

Smith or Cook? Leaning towards CS9 - probably less chance of being rested after this injury, and more of a POD among the top 1,000.

Repeats are that Seibold has coached his last game for the Broncos. Just waiting for the paperwork to be signed.

So where does Siebold sit on the ladder of Broncos coaches? Above or below Henjack?

2 trades left, but will use one for Lolo to CS9/Cook this week. Planning to use the other on Siro to Twal in a few rounds.
I'll have 1 red dot after the Lolo trade so I have a bit of depth. Hopefully enough to last the distance.
My 2nd CTR spot is a bit weak with the choice between Herbie & Averillo each week, but I'm happy with the rest of the team

I don't particularly know what actually went wrong at Red Hill. As a employer I'd find it difficult to hire seibold as a head coach.

Bit annoying as my last trade is going to leave money leftover no matter what

Will have to trade Lolo and looking at DCE or CS9 if named. If CS9 named, I'll probably go for him and captain him

I think you'll probably overtake my dad's team in 1st for Eels official

Was 1k away from Koro & Moses last week so was looking at Matterson + Moses with no FRF cover. Ended up picking Koro + Paulo

Ouch, at least Koro should be out short term.

Hunt
Carrigan, Fotuaika
Tevaga, Sironen, RFM
Cleary, Moses
Peachey, Crichton
Tedesco, Ponga, RTS

Luai, Grant, Friend, Randall

HTF, Averillo, Haas, Taumalolo

$17k bank. 3 trades.

What would you do? (Pretty set on trade(s) but curious on opinions.

I reckon that if he had held out to try and get the full contract paid out he'd have been effectively blacklisted by all teams here (and probably overseas). This deal will probably mean he picks up an assistant coaching job somewhere.

I agree. Other than through injury, Twal has been pretty reliable this year.

I guess see where he gets named come TLT. With only 5 weeks left, just spending 1 more game off the bench can make a noticeable difference to his total output

I'd probably go Lolo to McGuire (so you have 17 this week), then shift him to 2rf next week so you can get sironen out of your 17. See what injuries this week throws up, and if you don't have other fires to put out use the extra cash from the McGuire trade to upgrade your 17th man.
