Agree I’m keeping burton,

Guy scored 44 last week and bulldogs scored zero points,

Maybe Flanagan helps their attacking shape and he gets a few more attacking stats

Either way he’s sitting in my ctr position and will remain there a long time

Burton had a great running game at CTR, maybe they want him to run a bit more, worth a try

Early trades are back to my initial plan:

OUT:
Sexton
Clark

IN:
Cleary
Koula

Seems a bit of a no brainer really. Walters and Tuilagi were the other options on the table. Can't hurt to wait a week on either of them.

Not sure if this has been covered already but most of them are low ownership because they are crap.

Tell us what you really think!

Have a bank of $ 1

He's averaging 45 and yet to contribute a try or TA. Bit like Fifita, those will come.

If I'd started with Aitken/Burton, it would be as season-long keepers to avoid any centre roulette. I know they haven't quite put up the numbers some expected yet, but they're still centres averaging 45. Will be on my trade-in radar in the coming weeks, not trade out.

I can see it to facilitate getting Cleary in, but still think it's a bit of a waste given you'll probably want him back at some point.

Yeah, agree with all of that. Just thinking Burton is now in the conversation for Cleary. Along with Mann and Lolo. None of them are trades though really.

Berry would be their best centre, no?

Berry is the worst footballer in the world.

Indeed, indeed my good man. I brought Burton in at the start as a set and forget centre and yes 60's each week would be stellar, but nothing so far has left me displeased whatsoever with my decision. He's scoring very well for a centre, which is what he's there for.

That said, just from a footy perspective, I am puzzled with the Flanagan thing. I thought Burton/Averillo was a horrid combo because although they're at very different skill levels, they were similar players in what they want to bring to the team, just as I think Flanagan is similar to Burton, again, at a different level of skill.

Obviously last week didn't go well for Wakeham, but I actually think he and Burton is a potentially decent halves partnership.

I just see Flanagan and Burton getting in each other's way and it going as well as Burton/Averillo did.

He started LK in the last game and first game? Played more mins and scored better in the two off the bench.

$4k

I like it. Cleary and Koula no brainers. Clark no brainer. I think Sexton will come good, but hard to say when and Walters and Tuilagi are certainly holds. Worth it to get Cleary imo.

This is accurate, the guy should just stick to being an ice-cream sundae.

Wasn't really thinking about selling Burton but doubling up on Brown and Moses is tempting

Damn making me feel loaded with my $6k

Oh okay. Honestly didn't remember he started last game when they got smashed. Out he goes.

If that doesn't work, maybe a mid game shift to CTR

And yet still somehow their best centre? Granted I sometimes fall asleep during Warriors games, so I'm certainly no expert.

Yeah I wasn't sure, just going by what was listed on footystats. Hasn't been terrible, but that $632k can be put to better use I imagine.

Can't quite reach the Cleary + Koula dream team. 4k short of doing it with JoKing. Don't really want to sell anyone worth more.

So far doing Leniu -> Koula
I think that's a no brainer

2nd trade option: Clark -> Walters OR Tuilagi... worth it? And if so, which one?
If I do it, JoKing to Cleary is possible in a single move next week. If not, it's a fairly easy double trade to Cleary. But since it'd most iikely involve Clark anyway, thinking I should just pull the trigger now?

Who would you choose between Cotter and Fermor?

Fermor: 80min gig, good work ethic
Cotter: Psycho, loves an offload, good PPM, seems set for 40+ mins
