Yeah, I don't have a tracker but do talk through my trade ideas on here.

Think I'm gonna max trade this week, including Haas. Hard to keep four Origin players through the bye. Was going to flip Ted before last week, but now doing Haas makes more sense.

Cheese/iKatoa/Miller/Haas to Ponga/Drinkwater/Tatola/Ford

Would have 610k(!) in the bank and ten trades to go Burbo to Cook next week, then run Cook/Robson through the byes/season. Technically, set up to get through the bye period fielding 12 in the big byes and 18 in the small byes using only four trades with six spares, but that's not going to happen... gives a bit of a cushion for injuries though.

R13

Robson
JDB Hors Tatola
Hopgood Ford
SJ DBrown
Bird Lemu
Ponga Drinkwater x

R14 (probable)

Cook
JDB Hors Tatola
Difita iPap
Cleary SJ
Bird Lemu
Ted Drinkwater Bula

Robson Preston Ford Manu
Oloapu (Hopgood DBrown Ponga)

Means I don't play Keppie this week, which is kind of a bummer considering he finally got himself the lock role. May be a decent hold anyway. Or not. Doesn't impact too much either way.

Looking at Bateman next round. Maybe DEdwards.

10 this week:

Robson
Harris JDB Horse
Host
iKat Moses
Bird Null
CNK

On the pine: Keppie, Granville, Cleary, DFifi, Young, Preston, Manu, Twal, Hammer, Bula, Billy Smith

I'm not sure that's worth it to not play him.  Might as well trade him as you won't play him this week and on a bye next week.  I'd easily take Hopgood over Harris to play him this week.  I know this would potentially make it tricky next week.

Revs and I have discussed it and we’re happy to moderate footystats. It’s not really being the PoPo

Looking really strong mate, plan to hold off on Hynes until after Origin?

rhinoceroo wrote:

Yeah, think so. If he's not playing Origin 2 would have to rethink.

Welshy wrote:

NSW win they stick with current set up minus injury, they lose, then Hynes starts Origin 2

Think that's how it likely goes

Pookus McFly wrote:Any Hosking owners selling this week? His PPM is so ridiculous that he puts up gun scores even when he only gets 60 minutes, but i’m not sure how sustainable that is for the season as his reduced minute games are a small sample size. If there was ever a time to decide he isnt a keeper, its a straight trade to Tohu this week.

Weiland wrote:

I thought about it but I am selling Wilton instead of him this week. I will wait until I see a real indication that his scores will drop before selling I think.

Sage advice, and from the man ive held all year in L6 of Fantasy Fantasy no less. That’s a 2-fa!

Weiland wrote:

Hahaha I appreciate that. I know I am not exactly setting L6 alight but hopefully I have been at least solid. You haven't traded me yet obviously which is a good sign I guess

I'm still holdig Ford + Loiero

Expecting good things from them over the next couple of weeks
(actually one might become Bateman/iPap/Nikora as soon as next week)
