Really want Ramien but don’t want to pay 600k again for a CTR

Yeah Ramien is expensive but you can't argue with his scoring this year, been a gun. I want him

How do we rank these hookers?

Hunt
Mahoney
Cook
Brailey
Koroisau

I think Schoupp will play the season unless they get a mid season transfer.  Cotric season and DWZ gone.  Cheap and dpp, could do worse as a cash out.

Okunbor supposed to be back rd 16 put me off Schoupp before but it's since been updated to rd 18. I have no idea if Okunbor comes straight back in and who for but I think that's the main thing turning me off from Schoupp as a cash out. Also doesn't have the best scores but I guess that doesn't matter if he's sitting in 20/21.

Confused by this.

As you should be, I fucked that up.  Should be;

Jones - Hethro (or similar cashout)
Matto/Burton - Fifita
Hynes - Turbo and basically another downgrade to fund it.

Basically 2 downgrades possibly to get Fifita and Turbo.

Trade him back in? That’s a weird use of a trade

With Harris out I need another mid and I have 10 trades left so can afford to trade in and out or if he's going particularly well keep him and find another way to Tohu back

Yeah, his scores are shit. Feel more comfortable with Laurie even though his scores are shit but that's cause his team are trash. I am considering him though now again as it banks 200K.

All inferior to McCullough (I hope).

Don't think AFB is playing 76 mins every week

Pretty sure this post was a joke guys Snrub said that about AFB yesterday, aswell as labelling him a groupthink trade.

@Mulvy

I like those trades mate. How many left? Might still be able to get Cleary down the line via an injured gun if you have a couple of spare trades still.

guys in regards to the comments i made about my captaincy choice over the weekend it was a joke... i posted a couple of weeks ago about how the forum collectively have made some poor choices and i clearly stated at the end of the day your choice is your own and you live and die by it, if i offended anyone im sorry but it was just a light hearted joke to stir some people up happy to speak in the dms if anyone truly is offended

Why did Schoupp not play last round? Would probably grab him if not for that. The other option is Chambers but the dual would be handy.

Harris will become Haas for me after SOO and TLT assuming Haas doesn't get rested. Otherwise, ill hold.

It was the COVID bubble breach.

Might stay clear of Schoupp.

Don't think he needs to though. Filtering out injury games, from 2019-2021 he's averaged between 53-56 minutes for an early 50s average. That will do nicely.

Also had
50mins for 27 and 57mins for 39 in the two rounds before his 76 mins last weekend. Could regret it but a pass for me.

I'm not a Bulldogs expert, but if he comes in I assume it would be on the wing for Katoa.

At the moment I'm looking at:

Jones -> Verrills
Simonsson -> AFB
Brailey -> Lolo
B Kelly -> Chambers/Schoupp/Suaalii (undecided on this one, but will probably do it for the cash).

That leaves 7 trades and this squad at full strength

McCullough
iPap Tohu Lolo
DiFi Crichton
SJ Moses
Avo Burton
Teddy Hynes Walsh

Fog Watson Matto Lucy

Schuster AFB Verrills Kelly

Fairly happy with that depth, will be a toss up between Watson/Matto/Lucy/Schuster/AFB for 2 spots. Obviously, AFB in for Tohu while he's out, don't think I'll be selling.

Plan for R18 is then:

Schuster/Matto/Lucy -> Murray
Hynes -> Ponga/Turbo

Would be pretty happy to run home with that, leaving decent cover everywhere except WFB (unless I get Schoupp/Suaalii) and 5 trades for injuries/getting Cleary back in.

But I am not sure if they changed or I did, but I find them a bit boring now.

Not sure who or what that is Fortitude.

Yeah it is the same formula here for Roy and HG, I just personally don't tire of it. U know there really dry pisstake on the events in the sporting world. Like seriously suggesting that each household in Australia needs to have a big sign out the front of their house stating NRL players not allowed inside, to avoid Fifita like incidents, the way they deliver just kills me

Ah right. I think the plan is fine. I can't really help, same problem as everyone else in terms of few rd17 cash out options. As you say Laurie is useful as decent cover with good JS. Ideally you'd cash him out but could be worth holding in the short term until something better comes along.
