This explains Milford's scores.

Hmm Croker to SOS with trade 2 at basically no cost seems like an obvious one.

I've been considering it. But, I've got two Nuffies in simonsson and avo, I should probably punt first.

Thought I’d post my team in here for the week.

(VC)Brailey
Crichton, Watson, IPap
(C)Fifita, Riki
Cleary, Milf
Bird, Roberts
Teddy, Isaako, Laurie

Egan, Schuster, Liddle, Walker

Fui, Leniu, Niu, Jensen

$365K/28trades

Max traded up to this point, no urgent trade outs. The temptation to go Leniu>SOS is strong, but I’m thinking it’s best to slow burn him until another comes along, as is the urge to upgrade Fui(would have $789K). Then, there’s Jensen, and who knows wth Payten is doing with his team on a weekly basis.

Currently ranked 8251.

Yep. I think I will have to let SOS go.

U have him or looking at him ?

Probably make the same money, but one is playable in your 17

Im pretty interested as well, as an owner.

With Finucane out he might play around 55 mins and with 100+ run metres it may be better for his scoring if you throw in the odd TB/etc

If they are going to keep him long term then maybe he gets a big minute role in the forwards from here on anyway. Allows more rotation of the bigger fellas like NAS, shorter stints bigger impact etc.

Storm play rnd 13 so it would be great if hes actually a hold until then.

The alternative is he needs to be traded pretty soon.. which is why im hesitant to spend a second trade this week

I was leaning towards no trading but I might do this.

I don't think SOS is a 50 average player, but 45 would be great, and even 40 wouldn't be a disaster in terms of profit. And it's a HLF/HOK to HLF so doesn't mess up the bench balance

Would've been better to get him last week, and Walker this week, but that's hindsight for you.

Any chance SOS is this years Fogarty?

I'm happy with this team after trades this week. I have 150k itb to go Brooks to Moses next week.

Mahoney
Watson, LAM, Ipap
DFifita, Riki
Cleary, Brooks
Bird, Roberts
Teddy, Mitchell, Laurie

Brailey, Walker, Schuster, Milford
SOS, Fuimaono, Liddle, Niu

Not sure who is going to be in my 14-17 yet

Jensen being dropped is very annoying. Will hold him this week to see how things go! With cows playing late he can be a chance to loop Leniu and Stefano/Moylan.

bit surprised too that Burr held his spot above him, but the Cowboys have been pretty rank so I guess something had to change. I didn’t see the game on the weekend - interested in views on Jensen’s impact in real life and his chances of getting a recall?

Using a MN of 13,000, an average of 40 takes SOS to 520k or 585k if averaging 45. Though he could also average high 40s which takes his price further as well

Leniu could get there but needs a lot of minutes and probably a few tries to do so. And could take all season.

To me it’s a no brainer. Leniu out, SOS in. Quicker cash to flick at Round 13 and playable in 17

I started with him. Hoping to hold till round 13 or trade to a keeper like Haas.

I don't mind Leniu to SOS either truthfully. He may be my jump to Moses though, or will be able to turn him into Fog in a single trade next week if Fog bounces back this week.

Gah I just realised if I bring in SOS I have the same bench dilemma of which not to play that everyone else does.

I’m thinking Liddle, SOS, Walker on bench and Schuster EMG?

I'll look on in the next two weeks for all of the above as well.

This week could be a chance for me to bank 2 trades finally.

I’m trading Leniu out this week so you can take this with a grain of salt. I don’t consider him an urgent sell by any means but he is my first out because he isn’t scoring and he isn’t really earning. Leniu came in for a lot of folks because he passed the eye test and there wasn’t a lot of value at MID elsewhere outside of Alvaro and Stefano. Cheap props have historically been toxic in fantasy. The problem with Leniu is, outside of injuries, there isn’t really any pathway or opportunity for him to step into a bigger role, despite his ability. It’s also not like the panthers are going to start making big changes or reshuffling when they are so dominant either.

tldr: he will score 70 this week

It’s a good problem to have IMO. You’ll only miss out on a few points if you make the wrong decision but it’s swings and roundabouts - you’ll get it right the next week

And they’ll still make cash in your EMG

Personally I have to pick 4 out of Turpin Egan SOS Schuster Liddle Walker

Are DPP at the start of round 6 or after?
