    Do we reckon Wade Graham gets back to starting soon? Will be a juicy price if so, one I've firmly got my eyes on, should dip under 400k.

    Unless you're trading to a different position, I don't think you're getting much of an upgrade. He has the 9th highest avg at CTR, but of those above him I'd only trade to Burton or Aitken (and even then). Graham, Mulitalo and Ramien are within 1 point of his avg. so much of a muchness, Gagai injured, and May and Talakai have peaked.

    He has tapered right off though.

    On the topic of trading Papy to a gun forward, I don't think I can do that because I already own Ipap, and the rest are all either injured, play Origin or both.

    Given that there are no major non-Origin options aside from if Tohu is back this week (and I don't trust him to start scoring well right off an ACL), I see no reason not to just get Turbo (as he covers the position I need the most), either by selling Papy (and going Tago to Burton) or by selling Schneider (and going Tago to Burbo/Warbrick/Howarth)

    Edwards is an okay option.  Feels yuck trading him in though.  Plays 13 though I spose.

    Nofo another option.

    I started the season with Latrell and when he went down I traded in Edwards, has been ok, held value, but nothing great.

    Doubt it. Sharks forward pack is second only to the cowboys.

    How do they fit them all in.

    Anyone looking at Garrick? Decent average and Turbo back plus plays 13.

    To be fair they played a very different game last year compared to this one

    I am considering him as I can go Tago/Schneider to Garrick/Elliott easily (and use Garrick to cover Papy), but if we get Burbo/Howarth/Warbrick starting, then I could just get one of those guys and go Turbo over Garrick

    if I'm fully fixated on round 13, then the only realistic options at WFB are Garrick, Manu and Edwards

    True but he still looked dangerous on the weekend. Got 50 pretty damn easily.

    I like those trades if you hold Pap and don't care about 13 losing Tago.

    I like Manu but a tough few games coming up.

    Yeah if I decide to keep Papy, that is the way I intend to do it.

    That said, if we do get one of the three cheapies, then I may just go Papy to Grant and Tago/Schneider to one of the three cheapies

    I'd have thought full strength is:

    Rudolf
    Brailey
    Finucane
    Nikora
    Graham
    McInness

    Williams/Trindall

    I made this arguement about 6 weeks ago when I traded Wilton out. I can see Wilton playing less minutes going forward and Graham picking up some minutes. Problem is I don't think Graham gets 80 anymore, under any of these scenarios. McInnes, Finucane, Wilton and Nikora are just playing too well to be displaced entirely in my opinion.

    Nikorima officially signed with Souths so that probably brings an end to Ilias's usefulness.

    I reckon he's there to play 14 and cover injuries. I can't imagine they abandon Ilias.

    Does allow Warriors to get Volkman now.

    The Dolphins continue signing low key players - Robert Jennings, and in a huge blast from the past, JJ Felise. Unless they pull a Munster out of the bag soon, I can't see how they aren't wooden spooners in their first year.

    If he replaces Ilias I'm losing all faith in Demetriou and becoming a dolphins member, he'll most likely be 14
