Mann, Nanai, Clark?

Likely bringing in Tevaga and Hastings

I was contemplating Mann to Tevega but the longer the week goes on the less likely I am to pull the trigger.

Nanai is sort of fun to have around (if you can get a look at him each week) in that he looks like he could have a stormer or a shocker at any point

Clark is Clark

Mann seems like a popular out this week but I don't really see him as needing to go. I haven't seen much of the Knights lately but from what I understand he's been mr fix it which has hurt his scores (plus Knights bad?). They must be due a bit of injury luck, surely can't keep happening every week. Me, I'd rather trade the other two.

Averaging 44 which is about what he is priced at. Take away his 73 and he is overpriced. Guess it depend on how likely you think it is that he will get into a groove. He has suffered from playing multiple positions a lot recently due to injury which hasn't helped

Just like the Tigers, Knights will eventually get their shit together and win a couple of games. How long are people willing to wait for that to happen.

I'd happily hold Mann, but used my bank to get Cleary last week, so can't actually afford Nani - Hastings in one trade, so have to lose someone else (Randall or Mann) to make way

Depends on whether you are more worried about points or cash this week?

If worried about points then I would say:

In order of more urgent Nanai, Clark, Mann

Mann has the highest potential to go large, but as we've seen can dud it hard so that's a risk reward one for me.

If worried about cash then:

Nanai, Mann, Clark

Clark has a lower and more likely to hit BE so wont bleed cash, Mann will though if he has another off game/gets moved around due to injury again.

I considered IPap over Fifita for the next gun but the couple things that swayed me were DFifita has been very ordinary and still holding value
So we know his potential and shown glimpses, I feel he goes boom soon
I will still probably get Ipap before the second bye but 100k saved can be used elsewhere for now

Looking at it as a trio of trades over the next 2 weeks
so Mann,Wilton,Randall out for DFifita,TPJ,Tuilagi 138k

If I was just looking at this week only it would be IPap,Tuilagi and 50k
It would leave me with less options for the third mid/edg utility I want for next week
You don’t have to plan but keeping some bank gives you options
Especially as some mid/cows need replacing and with some bottom price options not here at the moment

With one extra trade after next week

Grant
Taumalolo TPJ Cotter
DFifita Fermor
Cleary Schneider
Talakai Tago
Papenhuyzen Hynes May

Mahoney
Starling
MKing
Tuilagi

Penisini
Ilias
Lee
Koula

Tago/MKing/May/Cotter/Fermor/Penisni could easily be swapped now with Tedesco/ACrichton so it’s just a timing game with the byes, not urgent

And then the get out of jail trade of Talakai to a gun if needed down the track

44 is better than the way Nanai and Clark are scoring though (slightly)

I dont think you can just disregard the 73. Hes shown he is capable of putting up big scores on the semi regular

He needs stability and knights to be half decent tho. Guess im happy to keep the faith.. for now. Ill prob be wrong

Nanai probably more likely for a 60+ atm but also more likely for a sub 30.

Its a tight decision but thats just the two id trade of the three

Hope you enjoy the game mate. I am thinking about tipping Manly though

I've taken Manly, but was the one I had to think the longest for. No Morgan Harper swayed me.

I'd trade Clark over Mann too. For me its Randall or Mann and I think Randall will be the more useful (next minute he gets hooked again for a score of 20)

Looking forward to it, I reckon both teams are fairly even with some key players missing
You should win by a bees dick

I can't see any reason for myself not to turn Mann into Starling. I'd probably go Randall but I'm a few K short.

Randall may get a reprieve and I may now just do one trade as I don't have Haas. There's no reason Randall can't get a 40. I mean he got hooked but it's not like Crossland was any better.

Spoiler:

My usual game day preview!

TU: Randall to Jazz
TD: Hold the 2nd trade

I have no MID cover for if Haas is out next week, but if I hold I could do 2 trades next week to a better MID, also going Randall to Jazz means I have no HOK cover, but at least I can wait until Cook plays this week before trading.

I think I'll be holding Mann, at least until Crichton/CM13/B Smith look like viable trade in options.

There's an argument to hold all, but if you need to sell I think the key question is: Do you own Haas and what's you MID cover like?

I would probably say Nanai #1 anyway, but I think it's a much clearer choice if Haas is a factor. Makes it harder to sell Mann.

Clark I'm holding for a couple more weeks, and possibly to R13.

Non Haas owner here haha. If I trade Mann then it’s definitely a MID that needs to come in so I avoid playing Leo, so obviously Tevaga stands out there.

Clark not an urgent sell with a lowish BE this week. Nanai I’m neither for or against keeping him, just a bit meh haha

Nanai to Hastings feels like a pretty straight forward trade

Right, need to make a few decisions.

a) Randall to Starling, or just hold trades. Gives an extra R13 number and leaves 0k ITB which always feels like a sign.

b) Who in the world to play at 17. Between Taaffe, Ilias, Coates, Koula and Thompson. Don't particularly trust any of them. At the moment, my theory is pick the guy with the highest average (Coates) and hope he scores a few more tries against the Knights.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Again, I like the trade, something tells me to grab Starling and probably Coates for me.

The whole point of owning Coates is playing the average with him, you cop the low scores and the high scores instead of trying to play roulette.

The only exception to this is when you can loop him

I thought the point of owning him was to bury him in the 18-21, make cash and hopefully be able to loop him when he scores a hattrick.

Hynes, Pap, Teddy, Crichton and May for the few that have him means you shouldn't be willingly playing Coates.
