Ezra Mam who moves into the No.6 jersey with Tyson Gamble sidelined after developing some lower leg soreness after training yesterday which requires further investigation.

I think Madge could be a better fit for the Warriors than Flanno, Justin Morgan or Paul Green. Would love to see him work alongside a Kiwi coach as assistant. He worked in Super League so does not have that "Australian only" mentality.

He already coaches the Kiwi national side. Have a feeling he might want a rest after the Tigers though. He might also be tired of working at places that can't get it right off the field - Tigers, NZRL.

Hastings to DBrown - Bags has averaged 60 this year when he hasn't been moved to centre

Ponga to Mulitalo - I've already waxed lyrical about why I want him, but TLDR: Sharks always go left

Billy Smith to Dockar-Clay - Need money and a HOK this week, ZDC does both those things for me and seems to have taken that Dogs bench spot in the wake of Barrett's sacking. I'm not expecting much here, just 20ish points and a warm body.


This would leave me 7+4 trades and 58k bank, so yes, I am cutting it close with trades and this is a risky play, but I was planning to trade all three of these guys anyway. Leaves me the following side - if I can end up keeping RFM, MKing and Elliott, then I'm only one spot short of my final 17 with 7+4 trades left.

Cook
Haas, Ipap, Matto
Angus, RFM
Munster, Cleary
Tago, Mulitalo
May, Hynes, Ramsey

Cotter, DBrown, MKing, Elliott

Kiraz, Koula, Dockar-Clay, Vailea

Sounds like Gamble hasn't been dropped. He's played well in Reynolds absence and they've combined for a few wins. I don't think Mam has surged ahead of him form wise, could be a potential trap.

I like the DBags trade only, the rest are sideways imho.

Mam probably holds spot so long as his form warrants tho

Any idea of severity of injury?

named at 1 coming off 2 80 minute games putting up 45 (2 tries) and a 36.

might look to clean up my 18-21
