That's probably my thinking.  It fucks my team balance pretty hard though after already trading in Latrell and Doueihi this week.  I won't have time to think about it either with the games back to back.

Although, I may turn Moses into Haas next week which balances things out again.

Other option is just get Latrell and Doueihi for Pap and Manu and keep Barnett, but I'd only do that if he's back to the second row which doesn't look likely.

Since you're set on Latrell and Doueihi, I think your best option is Murray over Teddy.

Ignoring position, if you have Cook, Cleary, DCE, Hynes, Aitken, Burton  - Murray is probably the next best player you can add.

Other possible punts are Yeo, Fifita, Doueihi, Teddy
Even Hastings if you think he'll stay at lock for most of the run home.

if you specifically need a WFB then do you think 7xTeddy (or whoever) is better than 6xManu+1xKoula?

I'd probably trade Manu because if he's not at 1 or 6 he's probably not good value for his price

Great insight from the great cow here.

It all comes down to Koula really. he gets a 40, I'll probably hold.

The only thing to be revealed is how many weeks I have on the jury.

From a team balance point, definitely.

I have Ted, AD and Latrell at the back with Nicho at 14 covering HLF and WFB. Moses to Haas next week with DCE and Cleary halves. Not mainstream but is what it is.

And for those old farts amongst us without twitter, WT2K is our saviour.

Or are they the same person?

Not really a big loopholer but happy I can do it this week with Volkman. Looping Ponga and Booth so hopefully Ponga can go nuts tonight to make the choice easy.

Sorry, one more question while we wait for the games and I'm doing nothing in the office at work, but what do you all think Koula would have to score to take and not trade Manu to Ted (or someone else)?  Gotta be 40 hey or lower?  If he gets 35-40 that's going to be hard a bloody hard decision I think at 7:45pm tonight.

How many trades left Wolfy?

Will be the last one. (You know, before the 4 extra.)

I think I'd really really prefer Koula get nab 50 somehow.

Yeah, hopefully Koula puts a good one up. I’d probably play conservative and take a 40. Ted could put up a score but he can also go low.

I think an extra trade may pay off more at the back end. Still 7 games to go this round so could get an injury or suspension too.

Go with your gut mate, set a number now and stick to it tonight. Don’t want to be flapping out between games, especially when they overlap these days with the bunker intervention

Set a limit and gamble responsibly.

Haha, you misunderstood - or I wasn’t very clear. You SIr have the greatest memory on the internet!

I walk across the office at work and then forget why I was doing so.

Ahhh, haha! In fairness, I can remember what happened on Sportal 12 years ago, but can't remember what happened this morning in real life. In fact at work I am generally operating barely 1 rung above being instantly dismissed at all times.

It's been so long I forget where my actual office is..

I know where my office is - about 2m from my house. Annoyingly not under cover so when it rains like it has been recently I have to do a quick mini-sprint to get there without getting too wet.

The vast majority of pastures in Australia don't have shelter aside from a few trees.

That's what my gut tells me, keep an extra spare. That's why hoping he puts up a good one, or I keep Barnett instead. Cheers mate for the point of view. Good luck this week.
