Haha I am not at all amused by this sick joke

Ricky doing Strange things with that Raiders teamlist

If I had a laptop I’d be making a Strange-r Things banner in anticipation of his 3 try 104

Bout to yeet the Panthers medical staff the non transparent dogs

No cowboys players so at full strength this week.
1143 last week and small rise to 302.

Not much else to report. Most teams very similar at this time of year. Waiting for a bit of carnage to spice things up a bit.

Just on this season I think we got plenty of trades but I still miss the bigger squads. I always thought a rule that if you traded someone out you were unable to trade them back in again. That would be an interesting twist.

Was looking at Randall but Leeming onto the bench squashes that.

RFM dropped, wasn't even worth a mention in the team lists
I had him as my EMG back-up... I guess now he will become used for other purposes

Yeah no trades.

Not even so much as a VC change to make

I'd switch Cleary and DCE's positions. Driving my OCD nuts the way you have it set up.

I moved Hynes to position #14 last week and it seemed to get his act into gear.

Perhaps DCE needs a benching this week.

Play loop de loop with centres, Ramien playing before the other two is handy.

Kiraz at #18, which feels annoying as he seems worthy of a spot in the WFB's, but can't justify actually playing him over Teddy/Latrell/Pongdong

Will gladly take boring at this stage of the year with only 2 trades in hand

Speaking of WFB, need Bula to jag a decent score this week. Not sure how many are in the same boat with Drinky out

About 851 of the top 1000 have Drinkwater out.

226 of the top 1000 are still holding Bula (they arent necessarily part of the 851 above though)

I need Cotric to jag a decent score...

I need to play two of Ramien, Bula and VTW. Have all 3 in the loop, but considering playing Ramien straight up and looping Garrick vs Panthers. FBs usually shitting the bed against them and experienced that first hand with TTrbo last time they played.

20 Green dots surprisingly, biggest decisions this week are

- Play Garrick against the Panthers or go with a Lemmy/Manu combo at CTR? (no loop available)
- Put Ipap and Russell in a loop and just play the Friz?

Might also try to get the most aesthetically pleasing team layout

Hands job was rough but effective, now he's finished. Hutchinson in as HOK cover, enabling JdB to...

HAAS
or
YEO
(or literally anyone else but cover would suffer a bit if not a MID)

18th man is Matto or iPap, which I think is enough to consider Haas the better option. Any advice appreciated.

Holding Kris for now, hopefully he's back R27 as thanks to Kiraz not getting DPP he's my Penis coverage that week. Would suck to use a last trade on a CTR

EDIT: actually, think I'm better doing Kris to Burbo/Kepoaoa etc for CTR coverage and keeping Hands to enable to Haas move?



tl;dr Kris or Hands needs to be someone cheap to make JdB into Haas/Yeo - worth 2 trades?

I'll take the rest of the week to think about making this move

Need someone for sub $600k for Robson. Leaning toward giving Egan a crack. Maybe the Warriors will rebound from a average performance against the Tigs.

Remind me how many trades you have left? If you have three or more, I'd definitely do it - with Haas. He has the potential to go larger than Yeo, and the potential for Yeo resting clashing with the Parra bye in the last round could be a problem. And I'd probably sell Hands over Kris.
