I would go Loiero with the Storm bye around the corner

Ditto

Many of here have both Loiero and EKatoa, but in 2 weeks when Storm have the bye at least one of them will go.
Possibly both as Storm have 2 byes close together

Loiero maybe a bit of money to make over Katoa and none of them are keepers?

Katoa might be a season keeper, still averaging a smidge under 50? Wouldn't say he's a trade out just yet, especially as Storm are playing Warriors on ANZAC Day and we have a reasonable idea how that's gonna go

Recency bias theory?

I just traded Loiero since he was averaging 42, up to 44 now.. Would've been Carty if knowing he was benched though. Most of us knew it was coming too

EKatoa crossed my mind, but figured he's a good chance at attacking stats with Hughes back. Storm didn't attack Manly's left edge as much as hoped though. Maybe why they lost

Tempted to trade EKatoa to Bird now, but might be better to wait a week. Definite FKaufusi rookie season vibes setting in again..

Picking Pods while everyone else is grabbing the guys that you’re throwing away will historically just lead to you losing more ground. I just looked at GS team tracker and he’s traded in teddy and is planning on holding for the season.
I’m shit at this game and the way I look at my horrible start every year is just a challenge to trade my way out of. If it’s really that frustrating just switch it up to play for hth instead of overall and bash the poor suckers you call friends and family come hth finals.

This is just one of the many reasons why yourself and Revraiser are quite possibly 2 of the people on this forum I most want to have several beers with. Add Welshy to the list but he’s in another country.
Looking forward to when I get that opportunity.

I just went back and looked and had completely forgotten about those 3 good weeks early on.

Well yeah if he manages to keep that up then yeah keep him around.

Storm v Manly updates have been applied as well as today's.

Also some new ones I think. Teddy +1 to 37 and Hosking +6 to 57. Pretty sure he was 51?

Yep good pickup, also Turbo down to 34 from 36

839 seems like a decent week and up from 45th to 18th, though will probably drop a few after the Storm/Manly updates. (EDIT still 18th after updates)

Thoughts yesterday were to cash out EKatoa to Crossland, allowing Loiero to Tapine the week after, but not sure it's worth it now. Probably just hold all trades and work out what to do with the Storm boys next round. I do have BMM but he can be a loop for a week unless an irresistible cashie pops up.

711 for me this week. When Koloamatagi, Manu, Teddy and Robson all fail to hit 40 it's going to be a lean week. Traded in Matto and Crossland who were among my better players.

Cartwright to get his release this week.

Yeah the Storm v Manly game didn't have updates applied, but were visible on footystats. Grant -2, EKatoa -1, Turbo -2 and Warbrick +7 in my NPRs from that one.

Overall scores not updated though mine is on 808 just added it up should be 815.

I had another steady round rank in from 2728 pre updates to 2062 with an 808 pre updates looks like that’ll go up to 815.

Going to have to sell Carty I’m considering getting Host who should keep a 70mins role especially with Keaon out 8 weeks now. Host will be about 370k priced at 28 yes I’ve been burnt by him before but he avg 37.8 in games over 60mins and avg 44 in games over 70mins. An avg of around 38-39 would be enough for him to make 120-130k. Going Carty to Host also likely allows me to get Robson the week after. I’m looking at Teddy this coming week too. With Host he would mainly be my 17th man and I’d loop him where I can.

Anyone else looking at Host?

Nice work with your score/rank. Tapine's score today doesn't make him urgent. DeBelin interested me more from the game tbh.

More interested in Tatola when he's back. Talking of which, when is he back?

I’ve already been sucked in by Sele, I’m not letting another fucking numpty from your neck of the woods ruin my year

Host is not a bad shout I guess, a slow burn through the next 2 months (1 or 2 big bye rounds). 370k makes it a little less enticing though.

I think I'll go BSmith and Crossland for midrange cows. Host could be worth a punt with all the injuries, but hasn't had many consecutive starts in his past before being benched again. Has a price peak of 451k 4 years ago and 438k last year.
