    Oh well Fifita's bound to go gangbusters next week and score big to make up for it anyway............right?

    I had the same reaction when I brought Peats in instead of Smith.

    Then saw him downdate 16 points after initially thinking I'd made a genius move.

    I think they would be reluctant to move Hodgson. Baptise might be a chance to be named in halves.

    what i thought was weird was moving hodgson to 5/8 and putting baptiste at 9. if hodgson is your first choice 9, why would you move him to cover 6? even though baptiste is solid its theoretically weakening two positions.

    ..then he got burnt by Jnikorima and ricky swapped them back hahah

    Dunno, what to do about trades quite yet, I want Mann & LAM out, but I want to tinker with my FRF & its the only position where I've got no DPP, Which means I would be trading those two out for Norman & Surgess/Ma'u..... on the other hand i could leave Mann for 1 week & DPP's mean i could bring Norman in for LAM, then I can dump Evans for Graham or maybe JTurbo depending on tonight, but then I'm worried about Mann dropping coin if he has another shocker or gets moved away from fullback...

    Also Dragons are playing the Rabbits next week. So I'm sure his workload will increase, at least for next week anyway.

    So is it too early to be getting guns in? Is the idea to get in performing cows and midrangers, and get the guns in later?

    Though I guess if you burn your money on guns now, short term gain, however won't be able to trade the cashed up cows for guns later on.

    My trades will probably be:
    Macca out - Mbye in (via J-Nik) - uncertainty of minutes with Macca re K-Nik
    Grant out - J. Graham in - Grant is a plodder & I want a gun frf

    I will deal with my dud cows Leuluai & Feeney next week. Not too worried about Leuluai as I think he's injured but Feeney is a worry.

    Nothing specific, but have $265 in the kitty.

    I've already got Garvey in. I want Walker while he's make cash, however I have Hastings/Nikorima and Taylor who are making cash, be it at different rates. Have I missed the boat with Walker? Who gets traded? Or do I leave it as is and hope the Walker train derails?

    So I have some under performing forwards. I know it's early, and it's hard to base decisions on 2 games. So do I sit tight and save the trades? Or go helter skelter and trade like a mad barstard?

    So I've got Woods, Evans, Packer and Leuluai up front, and Rochow, Taumalolo, W.Graham, Moeroa, Carter and J.Saifiti in the 2nd row.

    Is there an element of chasing in picking up Mbye? Personally I want Norman, he seems more stable with the same potential to go big given some attacking stats.

    I've got the same cows and won't be trading for Carter, it's not Pokemon so you'll never catch them all. With that much cash I'd definitely be upgrading one of the underperformers though. Who I'm not really sure but probably Moeroa or Leuluai.

    Good point mate & he is a great pick & I could very well go with Norman. However there was a discussion on weapons re this new fantasy model re fanhub & I think fantasy is changing more to the supercoach model where attacking plays are greatly rewarded. Also there seem to be players that fanhub favours & I think Mbye is one of them. My strategy now is trying to work out who these favoured players are & selecting them.
