Just take the 35 mate I'd say.

Cheers, Wolfie!

Yeah I have 5 players today and another 5 tomorrow. Anything can happen, some massive scores being posted already

Back on the dreaded centre debate.. i think ive got to use 1 of the last 2 trades on Scott to Hoppa or Mbye, yes?

Way i see it, scott is a 30pt scorer.
Scott = 3 x 30 = 90pts
Hoppa (40 avg) = 4 x 40 = 160pts.

70 pt better off?

Obviously over 4 weeks a long term average isnt terribly relevant, and anything can/could happen.

Main reason I went scott in the first place was to ensure bank to get haas back for pearce or fog/etc.. but yeo getting hurt meant i didnt need to use all the bank

Really need Nofo to turn up and get a decent score today and close some of that Ponga gap. Hopefully he gets a lot of junk points against Manly. Rookie winger hopefully means they mainly target his side.

Also, Hunt hasn't played yet but feeling like I should have gone through with a Hunt to Cook trade

No guarantee Scott is back next week so I think you have to do it

First game with Hoppa today. Was either going to be him in one trade or peachey which would have used up 2 trades. Excited to watch him.

Anyone else have him?

Was going to mention that, and yeah I agree. Could easily miss another week or more just because Ricky is happy with Timoko

I think your hands are tied with this mate. Go for Hoppa I'd say.

Damn, I can actually afford Manu which is pretty tempting..... he could get rested though

I would go him if you can afford him.

He's one of the few roosters to play every game this year so far.

if I could afford Manu I'd just about be tempted to just get Peachey instead.

Can also afford aitken.

Probably just draw a name from a hat

Only 3 weeks to go. On one hand trading out a guaranteed zero this week (and potential zero in future weeks)
On the other hand one of your other players *might* get injured for an indeterminate length of time over the next 3 weeks.

The guaranteed points boost of this week overrides any potential benefit of what may happen. Plus you'll still have 1 trade up your sleeve just in case anyway

Still think there is an outside chance Teddy drops out with Manu at fullback and Aubbo at centre, in which case I would have RTS as WFB replacement and Sironen's 35 into the 17

Doubt it Chooks are fighting to secure a top 4 spot against the team that is in direct competition with them for it, Friend is out and their 4th choice dummy half is starting.

No way they rest Teddy.

or he could end up playing fullback for a week. haven’t checked but my recollection is that he has hit some pretty good scores from the back.

Big regrets today after grabbing Lume last night. Seems like an absolute waste of a trade now

Dont stress man. Any centre on any given day can score a 20.

Might score a 60 next week with a couple of tries.

I think he raised the bat at fullback either last year or the year before.

I got him in as well mate. Needed the cash from trading out Latrell to turn Butcher into Haas whose score makes me feel better about things. I will just be happy if he stays in the team, if he doesn’t that Talua makes a return.

The advantage of most of my team playing early is that the potential for a last minute freak out trade is reduced significantly. If Ted is rested HTF comes in and that’s that. Bittersweet.

I knew watching last night that Sironenwas going to get 35, the most indecisive number in a loop. Luckily can only loop in HTF now so no way am going to roll that particular dice (he’ll get 50 for sure)
