I realized this ages ago  Not ideal but his dpp might come in useful and still a small chance he ends up in the halves.

Nah mate my team is absolutely in the pits at the moment. In the middle of a constant slide haha.

NZ warriors set to have a red hot crack at signing Joey Manu according to Brent Read

Sad to see it finish this way.

With Walsh locked into fullback I don't think Manu is leaving the Roosters to play centre somewhere else

Read was reporting they will be offering him near a million dollars to play 5/8

Wowwwee

SJ and Manu would be interesting

Think I'll be getting rid of atleast 1 long term red dot with Simonsson>Ponga this week. Second trade might move AFB on but don't really love any MID options. SJ will be upgraded to Cleary when he returns leaving 1 trade for next long term injury

If Tauk plays I'm thinking AFB to Tauk. Tauk would be my 18th man moving forward assuming Fog/Moses/Koro all come back in. It frees up enough cash to then do SJ and Hynes to Cleary and <331k based on current prices. Roosters also look like they could desperately use his goal kicking.

If these assumptions are true: SJ and AFB done for fantasy season, and Hynes becomes a trade out and Cleary is back in rd21, all reasonable assumptions, then I don't see why I wouldn't get Cleary back in, even if it uses all my remaining trades. He's the single biggest upgrade you can make and if I'm not using my trades on SJ and AFB what am I saving them for? Would run in with:

Brailey
Haas Crichton Lolo
Fifita CHN
Cleary DCE
Burton Averillo
Teddy Turbo Walsh

Koro Fogarty Moses Matterson

Tauk Peachey Verills 330k-WFB

The plan allows (hopefully) for one trade this week and then hold the other two for a week or two. It leaves my options open for if say, Cleary had a setback.

Bloody hell, my first matchup is against Pacey coming off an absolute monster score.

That is a real shame he didn't get a proper send off.

Yep and with Walsh out the back. Good looking lineup

SST is so damn unreliable mate. So how many trades do you have going into this week? 5, is that right? Trying to follow what you've written here.

Nobody should buy SST

No, three. My last three trades would be AFB ->Tauk this week, and then SJ/Hynes to Cleary/330k in the next couple of weeks. It sucks to be out of trades, but the plan would be to have a full squad and white knuckle it to the end. I would have preferred AFB and SJ didn't get injured, but they did so I figure no point holding my trades and carrying red dots so I can use my trades later on different red dots.

Sucks to see RTS finish his career this way. Always liked watching him play.

On a selfish note, I guess this makes him a trade out.

Also it doesn't have to be SST, the price point is perfect though. I pretty much want a WFB and a MID for about 828k or less. Both would be outside my 17 in the unlikely event I have no more injuries, otherwise I'm playing them. So fair chance I have to play one or both for a couple of weeks.

Another example could be Brimson and Kobe.

Adam Doueihi and and the new roosters WFB that comes in for Iku / Smith? It's just over your budget, do you have any buffer in it?

I don't mind Brimson and Kobe.

Curran + Staines comes in at 824k. Curran playing 80 with Tohu out and cross your fingers for a few Staines tries maybe.

Yeah, I wouldn't use one of your last 3 trades on SST.

That combo of Brimson/Kobe looks good. What about;

Staines/Leota

Schoupp/Paulo or RCG

Radley/Allan

Ah Mau or Gilbert/Niu or Marzhew

Nah no buffer, and I wanted a MID anyway.

Might be better to forgo Cleary. Again assuming that SJ, AFB and Hynes will all be trades I'd have enough cash to turn those three into maybe something like Murray, Cook, Ponga.

Cook
Haas Lolo Murray
Fifita CHN
DCE Moses
Burton Averillo
Teddy Turbo Ponga

Crichton Fogarty Koro Brailey

Matterson Walsh Peachey Verills.

Stronger squad, but no Cleary.
