Volkman is out with a virus so he won't help you this week.
Booth seems like a huge trap.
Matamua seems the least risky if you need a score this week and an on-going green dot.

Thanks legend. I knew about volkman but not too desperate for his score this week.

On 6+4 trades this week and playing for H2H.

Already have trindall as my likely red dot going forward so ideally someone with decent JS

Have you guys settled on the best cash out this week? Booth vs matamua or maybe even volkman

Then if you were moving on one of mcinness or king to be a likely final squad player, I would normally think it’s a no brainer but not sure it’s that simple. Any advice there?

Looking at king and Penisini to doeuhi and aitken this week, maybe mam to a cheapie this week or next if I want a look at booth

AD is interesting but not this week for me. Still high BE and Hastings at lock could hamper his points as he will still ball hog. Not sure of getting Aitken this late

Holbrook said in a members interview that they're gearing Booth up for 80 mins, with Clark playing 13.

Booth just has to average in the low 30s to be worth having as a 19th/20th man, especially if you only have one hooker like I do (Cook)

Has he been training the house down though?

The house is gone, all that's left is the concrete slab.

In all seriousness I don't think he's that good a player, but compared to what else the Titans have, he'll do a job. I have no hooker cover and bringing him in fixes that, and also funds my other trade of Averillo to Olakau'atu

Holbrook might not be the one making decisions in a week or two.

So, he's working him up to 80 minutes just in time for finals?

Need some help.

Penisini + Matterson > two of Klemmer, Tapine, Olakau'atu, Carrigan, Murray

Who should I get?

No on aitken? I need a centre to replace Penisini this week as I only have Crichton as back up and he’s out

AD scoring 50s only drops 15k or so. Definitely a good chance I get him cheaper next week but most of my in targets have high BEs and I need warm bodies. Happy enough to pay that price for him. Would love a week to see how kicking and touches of the ball dynamic plays out but with a historical average of 61 at five eighth, I’ll take the risk I think

How much does Penis lose if he scores big? He's against the Warriors. I sold Scritt last week. I have May and Tago as it is. Are you keeping Scrit but selling Penis this week?

Cook + ~660k subgun (Fifita, Moses, Aitken main shortlist)

Grant + anyone but Cook (Murray/Tapine/Munster)

If you think Grant can match Cook on the run home then you second gun will comfortably out score a subgun

Was there any update on Grant and his hobble? I can do Molo, Cheese and Mam/Hastings to DCE, Grant/Teddy and Booth/similar but not Grant if he's beat up. Can't quite stretch it to Cook this week I don't think

That was the plan. Penisini to keeper centre and critta 18th man rotating with ponga for that 17th spot

Penisini has been poor of late and just got sub 20 against the cowboys. I could just leave critta as my number 2 centre and get gagai or a cheap back up but don’t think that plan yields as many points for my final 17 for H2H finals as bringing aitken in

Open to being convinced of anything. This is my team pre trades (not set up for looping etc) with 6+4

Mahoney
JT papalii mcinness
Crichton Elliot
Cleary hughes
Burton Crichton
Hynes ponga Papenhuyzen

Barnett Harris king trindall
Penisini mam savage Lee

I do not know tbh yet that’s why I was hoping for some thoughts from some of you guys......

Can do Penisini to Matamua, and potentially May to DCE but will DCE back up? Maybe there is another option some might suggest that I’m missing.

Also finding it hard to work out who to put the C on as I’m concerned Covid might have affected Hynes and that he will be a bit off his game tomorrow.

FWIW, my trades are Penis and Mam to Mata and DCE. I'm considering captaining DCE also.

Booth is fine as a cash out or an absolute emergency, but it doesn't really matter much if he averages 25 or 35 or 45. You're not likely to be playing him, and you can't realise his cash gains. There's no such thing as a cow at this stage of the season.

What if Grant is a subgun? I mean, he's been scoring like a subgun lately and keeps getting injured to boot.

An option for sure. Averages 5-6 less points if starting 2nd row but 90k cheaper. Wish I got on him a month ago! Would allow a slightly bigger upgrade elsewhere. Potentially Mahoney to grant
