Averillo looks lost most of the time. Not a fan.

However Ilias and Amone are making him look good.

You're supposed to be not selling him.

Final thoughts on getting in Tago. @ms I totally get what you're saying about him, I had the same thoughts as well. He's a centre. Centres have ceilings and low floors. He probably won't average 45+. With all that said though:

If I trade him in and he doesn't gun it I will feel 5/10 bad. No huge issue, he'll still be a decent pick (also a lot of others own him so no big deal)
If I don't trade him in and he continues to gun it I will feel 9/10 bad. I will hate myself for being too stubborn to get on what looks to be a good option, and fall further behind.

Essentially I think worst case buying is a better (mental) outcome than worst case not buying.

This is why I cut Averillo last year

Mate Tago has a BE of 4, plays in the (easily) best side in the comp, and will still make good cash, even if he isn't finally a keeper - no brainer for mine.

Haven't had a chance to tango this season but I'm most likely joining you with trading him

People are still debating whether or not to bring in Tago??
Astounding.
Or is that Outstanding.

I have Burton/Aitken/Bird and Tago is still my favourite CTR.

Owning a CTR for the second/third best team in the league didn’t work out.

Going Mahoney > Starling. Probably a stupid idea but I think I've seen all I have to from Reed to know that he won't improve his base. Starling may not score as well but he's not 740k. Also allows me to go Stefano to a gun.

If I am proved wrong so be it but Tago is this years To'o.

Leo Thompson gonna run riot now JFH and Martin have completely bottled it

I have never been keen on bringing in part-time middies, but MKing sold me quick, I also 'crazily' jumped on Leniu after he was named to start in place of Leota, I just couldn't pull the trigger on Leo, but I genuinely hope all you guys climbing into him get some MKing level returns.

Have a look at the team tracker.
Some last minute carnage going on in my head

Can I answer that with Leniu?

Glad I started with the big fella. Was purely an eye test pick but I hope he goes well especially for those trading him in.

Didn't see the Roosters-Manly game. Any reason for Collins' low minutes? Or was it just Robinson prepared to rest one of the Roosters middles - especially after their fast start?

I intentionally started with all 4. Horrible CTR problem most seasons not the case this time. First 3 were a gift

What about the other 65 mins of the game when the little man is finished with his stint

Haha great minds...

I was 'never again', I burned so many trades last year on CTR. This year for the first time ever I have locked up the back 5 spots with keeper/guns.

Probably prove fatal but I am doing OK so far.

I have Teddy/Hynes/Papy ...no SCrichton
