I'd trade Macca if I had him.

Last trade of the year. The 'Topes have been clawing back some semblance of respectability inching towards the 5k mark. Matterson is on the block. Was considering the safe pick of Jackson, or even holding it in case something worse inevitably happens, but might as well see how high things can go and take a bit of a punt.

So who would your big cajones, trying-to-knock-the-leather-off-a-ball-on-middle-peg-over-cow-corner, standing-on-four-in-blackjack pick be? Can afford anyone bar Fifita and Cleary. Have recent flavours of the month like Curran, Doueihi, Murray. Cover is decent. Someone like Latrell or Cody Walker? Lucy? Grant seems appealing starting at 9 (whether that stays the case is unclear). Any real left-field options?

The Mayor.

Hi Mayor.

The left field option I really like based on the next 3 games is Pearce.

Always the risk he falls apart but unlike some of the other teams/options, he shouldn't be getting rested so that offsets the injury risk a bit.

Traded him in last week. He had a pretty bad game IRL but he still managed 46. If he picks up his game I think the attacking stats can still flow in.  

Shady2K wrote:Star fullback Tom Trbojevic looks set to play if he can get through training after copping a knock to an old facial injury. “It has come out that Tom has had an injury to his facial structures and I can report that he has had a knock to an old injury,” Sea Eagles Head Physiotherapist James Rahme said. “The only concern is a bit of swelling. There is not really too much pain so from a medical point of view we are not really concerned about the injury itself. We are just assessing the swelling and hopefully he is comfortable as the week progresses to join training and be fine to play.”

Jake Averillo has been cleared of a broken hand and is tipped to take his place beside Kyle Flanagan in the halves.

From the same article:

"The Cowboys are hoping representative stars Jason Taumalolo (hand) and Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow (appendicitis) will return from injury after they were named in the reserves, but they will need to pass fitness tests in order to come into the 17. "
