The beiber for sure. Getting better and better and storm need to lose so the Raiders top the ladder.

Quick question (its my first season). Can I use one of both of my trades part way through a round? E.g. can I hold off until I find out if Surgess is gonna play and then trade based on that outcome? Or is it too late to trade once the round starts?

So long as the teams of all the players involved haven't played you can still trade.
Souths play Friday 4pm this week so you'll know straight away
ie, once Souths game starts, you can't trade any Souths players in or out, or move them around as DPP's

As long as the players you are trading from and to haven't played this round, for each trade, then yes you can make them both after rolling lockout starts. Be sure to double check your reserves after doing so though, I swear the thing robbed me round 2 when I did trades post lockout.
Edit: what Chucky said is actually more accurate, even if the player doesn't play he will be locked for trading as soon as his team does.

At what point do I trade out Rochow and Turner?
What price do we expect them to get up to before they start losing $?

The way storm play, slowing down the ruck etc, I cant see it being high scoring and barba going decent.....that being said he is probably the better option of the lot.

Cheers guys, thanks for that! I'll wait and see what happens with Surgess before I make my trades.

atm my trades will be:
Green out - Mataora in
Slater out - Gordon in

I considered Macca to Parcell but I'd much rather wait for Peats & go to him. I'm also a bit worried about W. Graham as the Sharks seem to be favouring the right edge with L. Lewis so I'll give him this week & if he fails will go to Ma'u.

So I am 1,119,000 short of my ideal team

I am thinking of going Grant - Mau/Fensom and Copley - RTS/Munster next week

What total value (Asset Value + Cash Value) are we aiming for to get our best 17/18? I think my goal last season was 8.5 mil?

My team is sitting on 7.482 mil as we speak.

I would really love it if someone just made my trades for me.

Im looking at:

JNik --> Parcell
Green --> Pat Mata'utia or Gutherson

I already have Aubs and CLaw as my CTRs with Avua'a and Green on the bench, with possibly three of them out this week, I feel like one has to go.

This does mean I have to hold on to the likes of Evans and JNik for another week.

Team below (pre-trades)

HOK: J. Nikorima, N. Peats
FRF: J. Graham, J. McGuire, K. Evans, B. Lawrence
2RF: E. Whitehead, R. Rochow, K. Turner, J. Saifiti, M. Taupau, S. Burgess
HLF: S. Johnson, C. Walker,J. Hastings, A. Taylor
CTR: M. Aubbuson, K. Avua'a, N. Green, C. Lawrence
WFB: J. Mansour, B. Barba, L. Mitchell, J. Feeney, C. Mata'utia

EDIT: Did mean JNik.

I had about 8.5 at the end of last season. That being said, I also wasn't fielding a 17 due to injuries.

Fuck you Tolman. Fuck you Johnson. Thanks for nothing.

Anyone watching the Footy Show? Am I tired or does it look like Molan has a small 5oclock shadow?

Unless you need the money, like I do, I'd be trading Niko before Hastings.

How many drinks have you had?

Small error, I do plan on removing Nikorima.

None. How many have you had to not be able to read my question properly?

Is it wise to trade in Blaw for gavet this week? I'm not sure on if I will be using two trades or not next week, but with the injuries so far this season I'm thinking it might be better to make the trade this week as it means I won't have to limit myself to just one other next week.

Or is it too risky given an injury to Blaw or one which helps Gavet happens in the next two weeks would make it a completely dud trade

Well I'm not from Queensland so reading usually isn't something I have trouble with.

Just started my 4th beer.

At current player values I would need 8.5 million so I guess by the time I get them it could be closer to 8.7 million.
