    I think I'll do Cook > Lomax

    Surely some positive regression for his try scoring, *should* be *fairly* consistent with the goalkicking.

    Have Robson, Simpkin, Hands to cover HOK for now, likely will do Simpkin > Grant anyway so Cook might be superfluous down the line.

    Anyone care to weigh in?

    Munro (complete cash out for maximum cash for future rounds) 240k

    Montoya (dial, g good job security, can score well, like nz fixtures) 380k

    Sione katoa (sharks winger, capable of big scores and bad scores) 381k

    I see advantages in Montoya and he would be useful further down track if needed

    Munro allows best use of money to upgrade in rd 20

    I’m leaning Montoya as I won’t have enough trades later if have injury catastrophe in centre and wfb

    Anyone feel strongly one way or the other

    How many Warriors do you have? Sharks done with byes but if you have Tohu or CNK and SJ then you'd have three out rd22 which I'm not sure I'd love.

    You know that Simonsson's last 5 average is actually over 50 and better than Penisini? (I'm actually eyeing them both up this week)

    If I was in your spot I'd probs just get someone like VTW with DPP and roll with that

    Nofoaluma dropped, but Kepaoa could end up EDG and be great, or bench and be bad

    Kepaoa plays pretty much every week, so you can at least avoid a red dot by bringing him in.

    But if you ignore the first few weeks of the comp (ie before Bateman got himself up to speed) his average this year isn't great, and most of his scores are 15 or less. You;d probably be better saving $50k and getting a real shitto in instead

    Not an immediate concern, but with the R27 bye, keep N eye on how many parra players youve got. Same goes for others players in the lead up to end of season. Some may be caught short.

    Having 4 playable CTRs is probably overkill, especially for the money you'll be spending. If you brought Penisini in, what would your full strength team look post byes?

    You have plenty of trades left right (relatively speaking)? Bring in Penisini, and then after origin you can trades your superfluous CTR out for a better HLF or forward
    You can actually downgrade Joey Manu to Cam Murray if you wanted to. (or one of the others to Murray for a nominal fee)

    In case anyone wants to watch Australia dominate at another international sport for the next 90mins, the under-24 women's ultimate team (Stingrays) are vsing China shortly:

    You're right.. Timoko might be the better play. 4 points less in average but priced well

    Hard to tell in that team but in footy terms I think Averillo is better.

    Getting DeBelin and Penis in the same week - there’s jokes there.

    WFB to round out the 13 - not yet sure whether to go large on Isaako or punt on Ronaldo

    Actually thinking of avoiding cashout this week and going for mid range CTR, and grabbing Piakura next week

    Rough plan is Bird to Ramien/VTW (I only have Bula, Edwards, Ponga and Manu in CTR as WFB so might need VTW) this week

    Then Liddle, Turpin, Bula/NAS to Fifita, DCE, Piakura next week

    Props to Beth for getting the Russel FB pick right. Wonder if he's a better option than Avo. Gut saying Avo though I think.
