No interest in Peoples myself but is that right about Nicholls due back??

Yes he will be back next week 2 weeks ahead of schedule been ripping in at training this week.

I’m not so sure Beth Nicholls, Sele, Knight and Havili would all play before him.

We have enough middles back now that we can afford to play Arrow longer on the edge. JD will go with the established forwards I think not just what you want for your fantasy team!

Every trade is like pure gold so I’d hate to burn the trade then it doesn’t work out. Kiraz to me will be the more assured cow of those 2.

Just had a quick reconsider of grabbing Elliot this week but at lock only he probably gets 50ish minutes? Could see him averaging 40 if that's his role moving forward, doesn't make 150k from here if that's the case, more like 100k tops. I'm going to stick with Mcinnes in.

Host was getting 60-65 mins on the edge at the start of the year, when all of those guys were fit. Now he's injured and Peoples is the only genuine edge you've got left to cover

Do you think they'll play Arrow for 80 mins on an edge? Those bench guys are all middles, and Souths don't have anyone else.

Can go Talakai to Aitken hhhmmmmmmm.... worth it?

is a 45-55 a game centre worth paying 708k for? Your call

So much for a must trade week. Should've just trusted my gut and saved trades. Maybe the trades will work out, but at this stage I have regret

There's nothing saying Arrow won't stay on the edge now and with our pack back to full strength, Arrow and Koala stay on the edges while we can rotate our forwards more. Especially with Arrow going to Origin.

How many points are you expecting if he does play 60 minutes on the edge? History shows our edges aren't big fantasy scorers. Has an Ethan Lowe feel about it where he'll top out 30 points max a game.

Murray can play some edge too mate and we might if Arrow needs a spell.

Or Peoples get the last bench spot but won’t get more than around 25-30mins off the bench. I don’t think he gets the big mins you are saying.

Has Arrow played big edge minutes for souths without injury? I can’t recall that at all, feel like him starting edge is to just get the most value out of an 800k forward who doesn’t really fit into the pack

I wouldn’t be using him at centre would be second row. And an extra round 13 number

Arrow doesn't have the fitness or the lateral pace to play edge for 80 mins a game

He plays second row.

Yes he has on occasions before,

Your thoughts on Talakai to Aitken? Already got Butcher this week.

wolfking wrote:

I mean available at CTR. He gets mid 40s most weeks with the odd big score, which is good but not sure I would pay 700k for that when you can get a centre who's almost as good for 100-200k less

Still hoping against hope that's the case.
