Sam Walker if Manu goes back to centre I'll wish I sold him last week

Probably just a general status on injured players in general, doesn't mean he's playing first grade next week.  I doubt NRLphysio would have any inside information considering they don't even play this week.

Oh yeah I didn't mean it that way, just that I was working on the basis that Manu was definitely safe in halves until like rd17 due to his injury (I'm pretty sure that's what I saw the initial estimate for Walker was)

Not quite sure I understand this strategy.  Key bye round only to hold a 900K player until next week to trade?

Reasoning is that if I only want to sell one Origin player (since I have so few trades left), I would rather wait and see if any of my Origin players get injured in game one so that they can be sold instead of Haas.

Also, waiting until next week means it's easier to get someone who plays both of the remaining big byes (Bateman, Ipap, D Edwards etc.), while I already have plenty of firepower this week (Tohu, Hopgood, SJ etc.)

Hmm I didn't need this but I like it all the same. Potentially need to make room for him in my squad

I will look to pick Haas up again post origin (hopefully at adecent discount) however think there are other mids that do the job of Carrigan. As others have pointed out, Carrigan needs big mins for the uuuge scores, and chances are his minutes are managed heading into finals.
