He's not small, almost 100kg!

Probably keeps the KM's beside Turner but he's not a 17 player and Moses is available and has a strong base also. Went MIA first half v the Dogs but still put a 43 on in the second after butchering a try.

Sexton is also likely 2 trades, Moses is 1. Trades are worth a fair bit more this time of the szn.

Over the last 5 Moses is averaging less plus he has a tendency to be a boom or bust scorer….I have held Moses before and he is a rung below the top 3. At the moment the only thing separating them is $70k and some fantasy legacy. Its a bet, but Im willing to make it.

Aitken is one of our best players and no doubt our youngsters will be learning off him.
They're not going to drop him at the end of the year just because he's departing.

Now if he walks past our owner in a hotel hallway he might get an immediate release but that's a different story.

Another thing that seperates them is Moses plays 17

Looking at Graham closer to R17 in case he somehow sneaks into Origin. Can see a world where QLD win 2-0 and Freddy bloods some rookies in game 3

Some talk on To’o, I’m also considering going Tago to him in one trade. Only have single trades left also but it’s a non keeper to a keeper imo

Still have Burton Aitken Koula Penisini May (who is also a candidate to be traded out in R17) as CTR options

If going Tago to To'o helps the balance of your team then it makes sense. Especially since you've got Burton, Aiken and Penisini

All rookie halves are suspect defenders, how's he go ?

Yeah I’m leaning towards it. My other WFB are Hynes Ted May Koula Kiraz at this stage but only Hynes and Ted true keepers out of those. Koula can probably stay as 19th man for the year as a back up

Haven't seen him play, but his reserve grade stats are alright. 135 tackles made, 16 missed across 9 games for the Bears. So about a 90% success rate.

Across those 9 games he's averaging 43 for fantasy. I assume he won't be have GK for the Warriors though, which brings his average back to 39.7.

That includes: 1 try, 17 goals, 185 average KM, 7 TAs, 4 offloads, and 45 run metres on average.

Take 10 off that 39.7 average with the jump to first grade and he seems solid enough to average 30 maybe? Base price I'm tempted to take a punt.

Hmm....Tago to To'o is solid actually.

Thanks

He hasn't exactly got a lot of competition for the job

Considered this myself, but have a niggling feeling of this being sideways?
Also does the duel position of Tago mean he's worth keeping over the trade?

I’d rather wait and get Trell personally I think I will.

Peoples & Tass ---> Barnett & Volkman.

Down to 5 (+4) trades. I am the slats of 2022.

Caveat here is that 40-45 average is split across last year and this year

2021 - 6 games for a 50 average
2022 - 3 games for a 30 average

Honestly don't think you can read too much into it other than he's played limited games in NSW cup.

Volkman looks like a decent cash-out option, problem is I've already got Cleary, Moses, Sexton, and Mam as my cash-out half. Those and Burton and Hynes who are also DPP halves.
Doesn't fit into my final 17 plan.

Hastings is so annoying. End rant

Delayed reply due to U9 training….anyway yes on the R17 thing but it’s a gamble for sure. I’m anticipating that the $70k saved allows me to upgrade someone to Papy or one of my coin goat forwards to Cook or Grant in a couple of weeks. It could all turn to shit but I’ve saved a few trades for that eventuality.

Any thoughts what to do here this week? Think I might hold trades

20k bank

Robson
Lolo Crichton Haas
RFM IPap
Cleary Burton
Penisini Tago
Hynes Manu Mulitalo

Elliott
Ming
Butcher
Vailea

Mam
Harris
Koula

Trade Ming to Hastings, Burton to Aitken, RFM to Mann. Great for cash and dpp.

Also, I am in no way invested in your success
