    Teddy Papy Ponga

    Tevaga Hunt Carrigan RTS
    Sironen Host Mitchell Turner

    With Haas, Teddy, Papy, Koro and even Host out, i’ve only got 14 green dots.

    Am thinking of trading two of Haas, Koro, Papy and Mitchell out for a combo of McInnes, Matterson, McIntyre or Averillo.

    The question is which ones.  Is it better to go hard this round and assume no Haas in round 20? or hold him (and Teddy) in reserve so they can come back next week (when no doubt someone else will be rested, suspended, injured).

    Either way its only 16 players for me this week...

    Yeah, seems like we are weighing up the same thing mate as you said. I can hold 2 trades but that means running Hammer which I don't like.

    Anyway enough about me, I think Pappy is a trade for sure. I'd look at him and Koro out. Koro could rest again next week against the Dogs. What options can you get for those 2?

    Papy + Koro gives me $1.436m to play with. Problem is i really want McInnes with Haas out so that leaves $541k. Not sure there’s much value at that price (which is why i was thinking McIntyre or Averillo as a temporary fix this week...).

    Not many options by the looks mate. McIntyre would be fine if he does indeed start. Gutho could post a large score this week.

    Or as you said trade Haas and accept you won't have him the last round.

    If I make that last trade and go Edwards to Pap it leaves me 168k spare which seems like a waste but it is what it is lol.....

    Would leave me with this:

    McInnes
    Taupau MoFo
    Lucy Matterson Murray
    Cleary Pearce
    Peachey Crichton
    Ponga Edwards Hammer

    Hunt Carrigan Sironen Niu
    Koloamatangi Randall Haas Teddy

    Thoughts?

    Budget of 1.15m to spend on a CTR and WFB, keeping Teddy and Haas

    Atm I’m on Manu and To’o for something different. Any thoughts appreciated

    Putting up some pretty impressive numbers since his return. Averaging 6TBs and 215ms in his 3 games back. There’s 40 points without much hassle. Cowboys and Bulldogs to round out the season

    I plugged him as a POD option last week and would still go with him if you can't afford any of the big WFBs - Teddy, Ponga, Papy, RTS, Tommy, Nofo, Edwards

    Incredible base for a winger and plays in the team at the top of the ladder which normally means plenty of points on offer

    I've had a look through most of the top teams in my serious leagues. If you are able to get 17 on the park you will fly up the rankings this week. Seeing some bye week numbers with most anywhere between 13-15 players

    Didn't realise it was that bad for some. You'd think most those teams would be out of trades too.

    I could go for a higher tier WFB if I skimp at CTR again. I just don’t like any of the options below Manu playing FB to be honest

    Another option could be Harper and a RTS/Edwards but something about that moustache yells trap. Plus it leaves me 100k bank with no trades and I don’t like that haha

    So am I to assume in my L6 h2h this week with 'Doueihi or don't we' is a bottom 8 preliminary final ? As it doesn't say that anywhere.

    Does anyone have the stats on what Manu averages at Fullback? I need a Center thinking he might be a good shout

    Tedesco Haas Papy all heavily owned, plenty of teams would have all three, so if they were already riding with two red dots then they will be in trouble.

    Averillo seems to have come to the rescue for a few, but others will have Talau, Niu, Wiliame still sitting there.

    I briefly lurked the top 10 or so overall and I think all were good for 17 (or pretty much all) affraid scratch some aren't exactly reliable players though

    If you go to www.footystatistics.com and view Manu's profile, you can filter by position. Has played there four times, high of 98, low of 32 or something (and one injury affected game). Probably a fair representation of his ceiling and floor imo, even though its a very small sample size.

    What's Manu's long term goal? Does he want to play fullback? I'm surprised there is never a mention of that in the media.

    If the Roosters win this week is there a chance Teddy gets another rest?

    Nah, personally I reckon there is zero chance. One week break is great to freshen up the body, but he'll be back fine tuning for the finals next week.

    All good. Even Manu back at CTR is better than what Talau is offering
