Historical 20-25 guy joining one of the better attacking teams in the comp

Started at 300k and scored 8 points in round 1 which caused most to jump ship

Since then he has averaged 40 points and made over 200k with only 1 score under 20. "Only" 6 tries in that time as well

Hoping for 1 more decent score before round 13 so he can hold current price

Yeah - I'm hoping to keep all 5 origin players. As it stands on current prices I need to find ~$400k to be able to bring in my targeted players. That my reduce if Pappy and/or Fifita drop in value before I bring them in, or if Schuster/Laurie/Riki collectively gain value. After 2 trades this week I have 20 remaining - so I'm looking at a number of short-term trades for the buy rounds where (hopefully) I can pick up a decent score from a player with an increased role, and a bit of a cash bump. Ideally I'd be looking to max trade round 17 where 3 are cheap cash-outs named to play and 1 is Tohu.

Can't see Cordner coming back TBH. Will likely hold the grand angus - as Mulvy said there just aren't that many high scoring edges/mids around to make the trades worthwhile.

a) Stefano to Koro (potential trade 2: Schuster to Starling, but seems a bit sideways)

b) Simpkin to Starling + 100k (potential trade 2: Leniu to Hynes)

c) Pap + Stefano to To'o + Mahoney - go hard at R13

TU/TD thread is pretty unanimous on Simpkin to Starling, which makes sense given BEs, but gut still says Stefano to Koro is the play. Am I too blinded by R13?

Yeah, I don't fear Cordner posing any potential problems for Angus.  Surprised if he returns also.

Preferably R13 and cheap, bonus if they play WFB or EDG (mega bonus if they are DPP both those)

Pretty sure I saw Cordner aiming for R14 but I’d guess Tupouniua more expendable than Crichton

I don't see Koro as a great trade in. No score over 50 yet. If you don't already have him I'd be more inclined to get McCullough as a discount R13 gun.
