Well priced at 24 avg around 30-31 in 6 games he played last year.

We aren’t scoring as many points this year though.

He may avg around 33 for a guess.

Low 30s seems about right i reckon. Probably scores in the 15 to 50 range. Up and down

Hes unlikely to be a high base player. Will need attacking points to get to 40+ any given week.

A quiet game and hes scoring low 20s

Goal kicking is a bonus though

100% agree, steering well clear of the toffee

I looked at Fifita/Leo out for Taaffe for the community team, but just feeling sceptical that he can average 35+ to be worth the trade. Averaging 30.5 from seven near-80 minute games so far, counting the three finals appearances.

When all the shit shakes down, Souths are probably a top 8 side still, but might feel better about Taaffe if they were a bit more convincing.

First option feels better long term for cash generation, second option feels better for points but I would have to play Koula in the 17 until May gets dpp and still have 2 spuds stinking up my emergencies (Coates and Leo)

Thoughts?

Sexton and Crichton to Cleary and Koula are my trades this week, don't mind playing Koula in the 17 this week. Also have Coates but should be some cow's maturing very soon that can become a WFB if needed.

I think Crichton has pretty much peaked, lost patience with Sexton, and I simply don't want to go another week without Cleary

I mean let's face it a team running Taaffe and Ilias is just not convincing currently. I am Capt Cook though because he will have to pick up the slack.

Absolutely nothing wrong with grabbing the GOAT.

100%. They need Latrell firing to be a convincingly top 8 side. Currently they look like a team who is 'in the mixer' logjam around 6th to 12th.

If you could get Cleary C by Wilton and Nanai to Cleary and Jones would you do it?

In a moment of madness, nearly tore my team apart to get Murray until sense prevailed.

I have decided to bring in Cotter, my Mids were light AF and I like his involvement even off the pine. And the Cows are really light in the Mids too.

Meant I could offload BSmith.

Id be thinking pretty closely about that one

I think I would do that, although a few niggles with Jones hammy apparently, also how locked is Jones future?

Jones would be in EMG loop with Tuilagi. I think spot is safe. If Randall out I have no HOK cover but still nothing concrete about it so might as well spin. Could do Granville 246k "cashout" instead for his 10-20pts if Randall out

in a fucking heartbeat

Need to start 2 of Nanai, Tuilagi, Walters, Jones, Koula and Thompson.

Its a question for the forum but I'll answer it myself as I'm sure a few have a similar dilemma

Nanai has the worst base
Tuilagi probably has a base of low 30s and can easily go 45+
Jones is similar to Tuilagi
Walters is versing the Panthers. He needs attacking stats to go decent and I don't see many of those going around for the broncos
Koula, don't know much about him but versing premiership heavyweights I don't know how he'll cope.
Thompson, not even in consideration

I think I'm going to start Tuilagi and Jones with Koula at 18th man

Looking forward to Part 29 - Taaffe's average.

(Have traded him in)

Rabbitohs aren't a top 8 side. Don't mind the trade but would probably wait a week myself

Rabbitohs could post a cricket score this week though

Agree with the 2 picks entirely.

Critta or Penis as my 17th man?

Don't know if I missed it but is there any source re Brodie Jones potential niggle? Was going to loop Nanai but maybe it should be Jones instead

Starling and Schneider tonight with Nanai in the loopty loop.

Would you play Tuilagi over Clark?

Nevermind. Miscalculated.
