Well Mahoney hadn't played 80 in a few games before the injury so Smith could easily chew into some of his mins

taaffethegoat wrote:Would love a bit of team advice if you legends don't mind Saved up all my cash and pulling the trigger big time. Flegler and Hynes to JT13 and Papalii. At full strength that gives me:

Cook
IPap Lolo Haas
Fifita Crichton
Cleary Moses
Averillo Burton
Teddy Turbo Walsh

Harris Brailey CHN Verrills
Roberts May Savage Taaffe

11 trades left which seems on the higher side (but I'm playing H2H mainly sooo)

My only real concern there is Verrills in the 17 and not a whole lot of moneymaking potential in the emergencies. Is the correct play to aggressively chase cows (using say 6-7 trades) and spare the other 4 for injury/sideways (ie upping Brailey/CHN) moves?

You need another playable Hooker - BHunt seems to be flavour of the month.
I picked up Egan as a Rd.17 trade in, he's got pretty good JS and is scoring well.
However, as he plays for the Warriors, anything could happen.

Seems like the nonsense has calmed down, I'd like to come back to the forum because I've been trading a bit blind this year, although ironically my team is the best it's ever been.

Also, the block function is your friend.

PS. Do you know anything about Samsung internet's font settings?

Basically, unless you have serious fires to put out or a cashcow that is losing $ fast, bank the trades for the inevitable injuries / suspensions that will wreck teams in the final couple of rounds.

This is the definition of sideways trading.
No. Just No.

I'd say backwards. You'd want to be doing something really special with that cash.

Block doesnt work, because everyone either responds to the attention seeker or talks about it.

No still can't work out how to get Samsung creating the wrong words for me.

I think I’ll make one. Toops to Fifita, give Peachey another chance.

Will Smith's minutes doesn't match with Mahoney's. Anyone remember what his role is when he comes on?

Been following a particular thumb up/down post and it seems Schoupp is the preference over Dom Young. I need to make this choice as well, now that Turbo will not be lining up this weekend. Either that or I wait and see if Ponga plays. But if Teddy is out too I'm going to need two WFB, so who knows, maybe a scenario where I end up with Schoupp and Young exists, if Turbo, Teddy and Ponga all rested.

Anyway, I was thinking Young will have a lot more try scoring opportunities in the Knights (maybe not so much this week, in particular) than Schoupp will have at the Dogs, which is why I was leaning towards Young. Is it just the extra $20K that has people leaning towards Schoupp?

Don't mind the look of Dunster, what do Eels fans think?

Will Smith might be there for Moses, not necessarily Mahoney.

Does Young keep his spot when Best is back? Does he knock Tuala or Hunt straight out. Don't see Mann losing a spot.

I have a pimple.

In a word,nope. Kids got a decent future you would think but he really needs to bulk up as he doesn’t really have that tackle busting big frame that you’d want in Fantasy and he gets manhandled too easily. Just my opinion though

a. does he really hold Fergo at bay for the rest of the season? Truly don't know the deal there, but to me it seems a risk.
b. with Bird and no CTR coverage I kind of need this week's WFB to be next week's CTR, so really keen on the DPP guys.

The fun is having trades later on when others are out. So have your fun later rather than now.

Lets see if you take your own advice.

Yeah, I remember Best being a concern I had. You would think he is third in line after Hunt and Tuala, hey? Yep, probably too risky. So the people like Schoupp for likely best JS?

What are the chances fantasy screw up the lockout times

That's gonna stuff up a few trades I reckon givin the new lockout times.

Wonder how Fan Hub handles this ?
