Rd 7 discussion

997 for the week, slipped slightly back to 5,119th.  26 trades remaining, $318k in the bank

I like Riki to Moses

Gives EDG cover if Schuster gets DPP

Probably just got to suck it up with Roberts and hope he does something

Main options I'm thinking are a) Bring in Turbo, b) upgrade Roberts at centre so we're not getting consistent <20 scores.

Moses a good option too.

Damn, tough crowd. I thought we had a pretty good week and would be moving on up.

Not high on M. Moses, but hard to ignore his price bottoming out and playing Rd 13.

Storm are fkn pricks when it comes to injury info, so Papenhuyzen might be a tricky one. Would prefer to avoid Tom Trb, but mightn't have much choice if we need a WFB.

Fingers crossed that JRob can get back to 30s. I was less concerned when Nofo was outside him, but the switching of sides on the weekend was a bit of a pain in the ass.

At least Storm were kind enough not to name Papenhuyzen and cut him later.

Ponga, Tom, RTS and Rd 13 unless origin To'o, Doueihi, Gutherson seem to be the standout options.

Ponga, RTS and Doueihi probably my order of preference.

Not really worth selling Pap though

Probably just Riki to WFB (vote)

Ah yeah, just short of Riki to Ponga in 1. What a bastard

Probably not worth scraping the pennies from Niu with a 2nd I guess.

So one trade would be Riki -> To'o/RTS/TTurbo/Doueihi

If we were to do a second trade eg Niu -> Verrills that would mean we could get Ponga

just had a look at To'o's stats. holy cow - averaging 61 points with only 3 tries. 8.5 tackle breaks and 232 metres per game.

I'm in favour of the one trade of Riki to wfb (poll)

Yeah I'm thinking 1 trade is probably the go.

Thought about Niu to Verrills or Hampton, but kinda feels like forcing another trade just to get Ponga at a pretty high price. Not confident in Verrills scoring unless playing 80 and Hampton's such a tempter for CTR, but job security is always up in the air.

The To'o, Tom, RTS and Doui options all have merit, would be an interesting poll

Riki to WFB shots be one.

I still like Trbo, but others worth a look too.

Niu to someone probably worth it. Lot of cash in hand, who are we going to spend it on?
Moses / Haas? Anyone else coming up in the short term

Riki to Moses. Locks in two of the top halves for the year.

Would also go Niu to Hampton. DPP cover (playing wing this week, centre for Roberts usually) plus cash generation. Other possibility is Niu to SCrichton - more expensive but with added borderline keeper possibility. Ending the season with SCrichton in 20/21 would be fine.

Riki to Trbo
Leniu to Moses

Is possible with 9k to spare if people are keen on that combination. Just short of Niu instead of Leniu unfortunately.

Riki to any WFB except Ponga
Pap to Haas

Another that crossed my mind Hoffman quoted as saying they don't expect Pap to be any more than 2 weeks.. but if he missed 3-4 it'd be gutting. Kinda seems an outside chance of it only being 1.

Was aiming to get Haas by other means though, so Tom Trbo is starting to sway me as the first trade.
