I jumped on Too in similar circumstances in round 2 last season, which worked out great.

I am happy to take a high reward risk to have a chance to leapfrog lots of teams.

The only reason he is priced at 42 is that after a week at CTR, then an injury it held back his pricing, then the only 3 weeks we have seen in his new role with Talakai he has been killing it. If Talakai is the enabler that I think he is, like Mitchell / Turbo last season, its going to be a fun ride.

If you want to win this comp you need to take some calculated risks with huge upside potential if they pay off. The very best ones are those where any non-owner says week after week, this just can't continue. When it happened last season with highly owned Turbo / Cleary lots of people were in with a chance.

If it happens with PODs this season, its going to be carnage for any non-owners that can't keep up each week, while a few race to the top to battle it out.

Oh well dumpster diving for me most of the year with my lack of cash

Shouldn't you worry about finishing in the top 10k for s change, before worrying about winning the comp ?

I stopped reading here but imagine there's no.mention of the  many others you've jumped on in "similar circumstances" that didn't "work out great".

If I'm tracking this right you're using two trades to sell Hynes and Papy this week? Good luck getting into the top 10k let alone "winning the comp".

Just signed in for a quick read and this is the first post I’ve read.

Surely no one could be trading those 2 players out this week? Do I do the Grandpa Simpson hat turn around and log straight back out

The Canberra Times sports reporter says it will be Young straight in to start, but agree with you, the toe injury seems like a cover. Was named again in NSW Cup for this week even after playing the full 80 there last week. Can't figure it out, don't think he was all that bad prior to missing games. Annoying the game is late Sunday.

Have a read of my team tracker for the rationale for getting Cleary and Mulitalo this week, at the expense of Papy and Hynes.

Genuinely looking forward to forum when he scores 70 tonight (and averages 38 for the year)

For me , two things have been the deciding factor so far this season
1) Not starting with Haas and/or captaining him
2) Staring with Burton & Aitkin as your set and forgot centre. It would have been a good strategy if, like every other years, the centres were scoring 20's & 30s but Tago, May, Mulitalo, Penisini are all doing well. So teams that invested in other areas while playing with cheap Tago/Penisini etc combination have flourished.

I had the worst start to the Fantasy ever but the goal is not do anything stupid and play the waiting game with the Trades.
