Rd 16 trades - no idea, really…

current team:

Brailey
Haas Harris Crichton
CHN Matterson
Moses Johnson
Peachey Bird
Tedesco Turbo Hynes

Watson Fogarty Verrills Jones
Cleary Walsh Schuster Suaalii

17 green dots atm. 11 trades left, $116k in the bank.

Lots of options canvassed in the discussion thread (https://www.nrlfantasyfanatics.com/t1695-rd-16-discussion-and-maybe-a-bit-of-final-team-planning) - note zero trades, Cleary out and Fifita in options are on the header lines to squeeze them all in.

ultimately the big question is whether to hold or sell Cleary.

I think with 11 trades left, we pull the trigger on Cleary to Burton

Haven't voted yet as still tossing up 2nd trade (hold schuster and hope for a R17 game before ditching? or get rid of Brailey/Watson)

Tempted to vote for Cleary out just so I can vote for the trade out option as a trade out

I agree. Burton a large upgrade this week over Verills/Jones. I'd consider a Brailey/Watson upgrade to Fifita, but it leaves Hooker a bit thin. Does the community have a plan to upgrade hooker at some stage?

I like the Burton in, not sure how much value upgrading Brailey would make longterm.

I voted Cleary to Burton. Maybe hold the second trade.

@Mulvy - a bit of chat here: https://www.nrlfantasyfanatics.com/t1695-rd-16-discussion-and-maybe-a-bit-of-final-team-planning. not much consensus…

I'm thinking now it may not be worth trading Burton in.  If he was on board since round 13 fair enough and I own him and happy to still ahve him, but not sure he'll be as dominant as everyone is expecting.  Can see Luai stepping up big time.  I think my vote just goes to Fifita now which would make it 11 Burton and 10 to Fifita.

did you vote one or two trades? at this stage they are both coming in anyway

feck, forgot to pull the trigger on the trades. Cleary and Burton locked out.

$116k in the bank, Watson and Schuster, Brailey and Fogarty still options to trade out.

If we still want Fifita at $865k for say Watson and Schuster, we’d need someone less than $417k, ideally who will play next week eg Simo, Talakai, Topine, Chambers, Doorey? Brailey or Fogarty would give us a bit more to play with.

Keeping Cleary for Burton worked out for the best. Good work Jele

If we trade out Brailey we need a hooker soon as Watson/Verrills won't cut it.

Almost tempted to just hold at this point and make a run after origin

personally i’m blaming the forum

@Jele

Brailey out could get you Dearden??

I like Doorey as a near cashout, planning to get him in my own team next week

Maybe hold now?

Maybe sit tight, use the extra cash from Cleary next week for definitive upgrade next week.

Honestly I think hold now.

You poor desperate bustard calling me the brains trust
Does sound like something I would do and have experience at. I'm with team hold tight

If we hold it looks like we have to play Jones as Suaali at 21.

I'd hold fire now. Reassess next week

Appreciate the brainstrust compliment too haha. I was confused by the notifications and kept clicking my inbox messages

I voted 1 trade Cleary to Burton. I didn't vote for Fifita incase he's rested Rd 18. That was a factor for me when trading him out originally.

I like holding trades now. Thanks for the lucky break fantasy gods
