R10 trade discussion

Papy- To'o
Taafe - Burbo

Many banks.

Without spending much time looking at options my initial thoughts are

Papy to Turbo/To'o
Critta to Elliot

or

Papy to To'o
Critta to McInnes

Time to finally ditch a centre

Pap to TTrbo was my first thought when Pap went down after scanning the other WFBs. Could just chuck Scritta at WFB and go Pap to a gun forward. Need to find about 100k for Papalii though.

I was sceptical of AElliot last week. CHN last year too.. Looks like Elliot will get 20 odd at HK and 30-40 in the MID. Might be worthwhile a week late still.

Crunching some numbers, guys I wouldn't miss much and prices

Pap 756
Taaffe 357
Schneider 470
AFifita 322
Penis 526 (if it allowed for Papalii)

Potential trade-ins

Papalii 896
AElliot 447
TTrbo 725
Harris 763

I'm thinking Pap and Schneider out for TTrbo and AElliot with 94k to spare. Would be more interested in Meaney if he wasn't almost 500k already.

*Forgot about McInnes too at 613k. Hamlin-Uele out and Talakai covering the backs. Tolman's minutes were sacrificed for Finucane's return. McInnes surely offers more than Tolman, so might continue to get 60ish. Worth considering.

Need to strengthen the pack, we have a lot of volatile forwards and even playing a centre at edge
A cheap DPP FRF/EDG is worth it, at worst Elliott is useful to round 14

The issue is we are kinda pidgeoned holed in here so only really 2 real options I can see
Tread water with all the bye players and fix with trades during and after the bye

Or stick to our current strength (lol back cover) and run all the panthers backs on the bench, grab a TTrbo and hope he can banner up
He looked dangerous on the weekend, was unlucky not to go huge so I think he is close
The latter sounds fun and at least we won't have to worry about origin cover with the back heavy 14-21

Round 13 with 4 trades we could maybe grab a Harris/Aitken/cow/cow or fix the team up further then perhaps?

IPap in for me for Papy and Schneider to anyone $370k or less. Could Havili or Moale benefit from Murray’s absence?

Schneider to Elliot
Pap to Turbo or Ted

I reckon Knight probably sees an uptick.....unfortunately.  havilli has been pretty good though.

Agree with this. Probably lean towards Turbo over Ted but happy with either.

Team has Teddy already, so it’s a pretty easy choice to get Turbo, in a straight positional swap. Although with the sucky team balance could invest in the forwards rather than Turbo. But aside from punting on Harris, nobody stands out.

If we want to double trade, Elliot provides that forward cover while enabling Turbo. Ideally for balance would sell a CTR - I’d suggest pulling out the Penis. But other players might be more urgent trades

Schneider + Papy out. Elliott + Turbo in

How observant am I.....
