Have 18 green dots without trading, and am struggling with who to get rid of instead of those 2. Does that mean holding both of my 2 remaining trades? Got a few spuds in my 17... I should add that I'm playing for overall.

    Rumour of Haas being out for both weeks scares me...

    Team:

    The plan for those interested, will be to start Teddy and put HTF at 18. If HTF goes under 40 odd then I trade Young to Brimson and get his score instead.

    So many variables this week and next week with players out/being rested. I'm really tempted to just trade out my one red dot (Tommy Talau) for someone like Averillo and hope Pappy, Teddy, and Haas are all back next week.

    Team is this and I have 1 trade left $85k ITB:

    Cook
    Haas, Mofo
    Carrigan, CM9, Matterson
    DCE, Cleary
    Hoppa, Crichton
    Pappy, Brimson, Teddy

    Hunt, Starling, CS9, Twal
    Sirro, Randall, Talau, Hammer

    Tigers are the Storm's bogey team, aren't they? Haha probably not this time around.

    Raiders v Warriors should be good.
    Eels vs Broncos has potentially to be close at least.
    Knights v Dragons could be the game of the round.

    Hope the Warriors get up. Want the boys to finish the season real strong. Worried some of them will have one foot on the plane already. But Toddy seems to have been able to fire them up so fingers crossed they come out and put on a good show.

    We have a decent record against them at Leichhardt, but normally get flogged anywhere else (we beat them at AAMi in 2018, but that is a rare victory down theer)

    Put the C on Grant. He's going to play out of his skin and make CS9's decision to retire for him, unless CS9 wants to be captain coach of the ressies next year.

    NRL.com - Powerhouse forward Payne Haas is unlikely to play in the final two rounds after leaving the Broncos bubble this week to be with family following the passing of his brother, Chace.

    Well, tricky spot gets trickier. I still think Haas will play round 20.. but then.. maybe he won't..?

    If AFB is set to play this week then, really, I should probably trade Haas to Cook/DCE...

    AFB probably goes in the loop in that situation....

    Sounds like Broncos have been tipped that Haas is in the origin squad which enters a bubble on 19th of October. So by letting him leave now he gets 4 weeks with his family rather than 10 days once round 20 ends. Also sounds like he didn't leave the bubble for the funeral so this would be first time seeing his family since

    Matched up against the man himself in the mod's league prelim.
    Random - how many trades do you have left? Five red dots Sad

    We only have seven matching players which I swear is the least I have come up against all season.

    This makes not being able to trade Haas back in a little bit nicer.

    Only 1 trade left this week and haven't owned Haas since his suspension

    I'd probably move him "sideways" to someone like Cook, McInnes, DCE, Cleary

    I’m torn on what to do now. I was gonna do Pap to Edwards to give me 17 this week, but if Haas is out both weeks which looks likely do I just go Haas to Cook or DCE? Means I play with 16 this week with Teddy and Pap out and if Pap isn’t back next week then I have to play Hammer again. 

    Or should I just make no trades this week and play with 16, no Haas, no Teddy no Pap etc.....?

    So torn.....
