Brandon Smith > Grant

Grant straight swap with Smith, and need the HOK cover. If he gets 60+ minutes he should hit 55+ easily.
Tago I think still makes good money and could be this year Lomax. Bloke looked really strong and plays on probably the best attacking edge in the game. I reckon a solid 35-40 points each week in a position we all struggle in.

I just posted my planned trades into Team TRACKER below

I am not sure if this is useful for anyone but I divided my team up into

GUNS (6)

Soon UPGRADABLE TO Cleary, Haas, or McInnes (2)

CLEAN (not at all DIRTY) MID RANGERS (3)

SOLID CASH COWS (7)

QUESTIONABLE CHEAPIES (3)

The only question I have is... is Timoko at CTR a GUN yet? At 0.6% ownership, he is the pick I think I am most happy about this weekend. He is the only one that does not seem to fit neatly into one of these categories

What did you do to get 3 trades?

Unless Koula gets a run, going to need a centre if I've lost Smith and Vailea.

But the only way I can really see to do it is to ditch Uto and Smith (or Vailea) for Tago and Jing, and bank the extra cash.

Don't necessarily want to give up Uto straight away, but leaving 20k in the bank didn't leave me with many options in this scenario lol.

Did Arrow play all 72 minutes in the 2nd row? I can't even remember. But looking at bringing him in for Burton this week

You're going to get absolutely struck down by the fantasy gods for doing this

Hopefully not Wilton

Probably not, they don't hang out together much.

Big Call... I reckon the BULLDOGS will hit their straps this year and make the Top 8 once everyone becomes more familiar with each other. They have some good players. Do you have any other players you could consider upgrading than BURTON?

1 trade: Clark to Starling

17 changes:
OUT: Ilias, Tuilagi
IN: Starling, Tago
Red dot: Vailea

Leaving 1 trade for late notice Covid Shenanigans or other withdrawals.

The Bulldogs laat tackle option isn't going to be Burton standing around with nothing on then getting tackled all season.

Maybe...

I don't necessarily wanna get rid of Burton, but by getting Arrow for him it frees up enough cash for me to go Coates -> JKing who I really want now after the Welch injury

I assume this is tongue in cheek but if not, I benched grant and latrell in round 1

I don't know. I think the Fantasy GODS like a bit of help choosing the next GOAT. I reckon it would very hard to justify picking him up now if you did not already have him, but he has ginormous POD potential. Great scoring already and as a CTR has not yet scored a try in the 10-12 games sample he has already played. Surely I can tempt them just a little bit and get away with it. Just for shits and giggles

I meant splitting your squad into likely keepers/guns

I did it in 2020 after the COVID break and then went on to require like 20 forced trades due to injuries

What is eveyone doing with TLolo?

By the way, he reads the Forum, you just cost yourself a Christmas Card.

How many tabs do you want open?

Twas Sprinkles not me; and he 'vetted' them before I took the photo, so there were actually more prior.

Hold for now, caveat I have others I need to get rid off

Not inspired by his performance or the role, definitely on my list to get rid off

Think I'm going to try and get Haas in with a downgrade elsewhere

Watching for a couple of weeks. First game back without playing trials. Isn't losing money even at floor. Also watch Leniu for a couple of weeks as a potential trade down.
