Given they just got a win, same as last week (+ Taumalolo when he's fit)

Are you making this trade on the assumption he won't be back next week?

I'm having a hard time imagining a world in which the Broncos lose to the Panthers by 50 pts and Croft retains the starting spot a week later

I guess Kev may keep him in reserve grade for two weeks to show the squad he is ~really serious~

I just think surely it looks like the writing is on the wall for him.

I like him if he gets the minutes. With AFB gone for practically the year that should open up a big minute role. If he is named at lock again I might jump on. Probably decent value in a woeful MID position at 50 minutes. Probably an under valued keeper if he gets 60 minutes long term

Damn i'm slowly being convinced he's the play this week with all these comments!!

I'm interested in Tevaga but for me it would probably be at the expense of bringing Haas in within the next few weeks so that's my hesitation. Could always go him instead of Fog though.. Hmm

Gotta wait and see how team lists shake out as usual

Getting Harris and Tevaga/Fogarty this week still leaves me plenty of fodder to get Haas in the next couple of weeks along with a Simpkins/Blore/Verills cash out when they arrive.

So hopefully that helps me make the decision haha

If you don't get Haas this week, there's every chance to get him in for someone like Turpin/SOS/Egan in a few weeks once they're closer to maxxing out.

I don't think Haas is going to jump massively in price so no rush for affordability, its just getting his points in sooner.

Tlt pending.. trades are looking like: cheese and niu out. Bird and Tohu in.

I am willing to avatar bet that Haas goes under 60 this week

If Jazz gets 60 mins he's great value and given that there is a new coach this year that's altogether possible but.....the Warriors have a few middles to spread the mins around and if he plays 45-50 mins he scores 45-50 and is priced accordingly.

Guaranteed he shores up a MID spot for you but that's about it at this stage.

As I said he could be the beneficiary of some extra mins with AFB out but I'd want to see that before I went diving in with my $600k

Yeah I agree with this. That's why I think I will take a discounted Mitchell Moses instead with potentially no Dylan Brown this week and then Broncos and Bulldogs to follow. Hopefully hit some 70+ scores in the next 3 weeks.

Can go Liddle to Tevaga next week for circa $50k if Tevaga gets the role.

I've got the following players who look like they'll be getting traded out soon

Riki, Fuimaono, Milford - so will look at moving them on, TLT dependant

Liddle and Croker also aroun but think I can ride them a couple more weeks

Also have James Roberts but he's in NPRs so no urgent rush to do anything unless he gets dropped.

McGuire joins Dragons effective immediately

Is anyone looking at Bird as a buy? Only $30k more than start of season and could possibly match someone like Momo for $100k less

Riki to Wilton not a bad trade if you need edge cover.

Also JTB is potentially back soon someone mentioned to me. Could see Tohu shift back to lock? Jazz is hard to ignore though if getting 60.

Well I need to trade for 2 centres to field a team this week

You know what would really float everyone's boat - Tigers naming Blore as a starting Edge.
Riki > Blore = $250K (ish) bank.


SWEET!!

JTB and Afoa are both available this week.

Murchie played 80 on an edge last week - does he keep that spot? That probably means JTB + Afoa start prop, Harris 13, Tevaga bench ? Of course Harris could stay prop and JTB or AFOA come off the bench.
