Linnett's only meant to be gone for 3-5 rounds. I don't know if it's worth using up a trade for a few prices rises. It's too hard to tell if he'd even get a run over the origin period.

Coote will be in the halves over Origin so there'll be a spare spot in the Cowboys backline, but yeah no guarantee Bowen will get it.

Garvey - KNik
Woods - Graham - JTurbo - Lawrence
Tapau - Fensom - Merrin - Rochow - Carter - Safiti
Johnson - Hastings - Taylor JNik
Aubs - BJ - Auvaa - Bhenry
Barba - Hymel - Tedesco - Feeney - Mitchell

Anybody see any trades I should make that Im too blind to see? Whose the hooker to target when Garvey gets dropped for Lichaa?

When will Carter peak in price?

Id be finding 117k and getting Parcel for KNik. You could be very stuck next week in hooker no-mans land

Is Sezer a decent replacement for DCE over the others?

Would it be worth keeping Garvey after next week? I was planning on a straight trade for him after this round.

I'm passing on Bowen this week (he'll go up about 16k if he scores 35) and will probably bring him in next week

instead I'll bring in Barba for Jnik in the halves to provide a bridge for a gun half.

Jnik is close to peaking after his 13 last week (he'll make another 10k if he scores 30)

Barba on the other hand has the potential to go up 30k or more this week after last week's score of 55

Garvey has to go most likely next week but there are rumours Lichha will be back monday night, that would leave you in a big mess.

Maybe look at JNik to Parcel via KNik, that way you need less cash for the trade. If Garvey keeps playing you keep making cash have 2 top hookers, if he stops playing you have a top hooker in Parcell and will only be a short jump from Garvey to gun.

I think you need to look at how do i get 2 gun hookers in the least amount of trades. Or run with the risky 1 hooker only option all year and if thats the case it needs to be Smith

i'm definitely considering it. i feel like going a little less with the crowd and sezer could be a good option. now that everyones teams are taking shape it will be more difficult to make up ground until origin.

DCE said two days ago he will do everything he can to get back within 3 weeks, but its likely going to be four. is he a definite trade out?

Hey Shanbon,

What are your thoughts around holding Peats?

You're in a similar situation as me having a number of NPR's. The Gavet to BLaw trade looks good.

Hodgson Peats

30 trades and 89k left

any ideas? Evans to Dugan? Gavet to Lawrence? Copely to Bowen? No trades?

Apparently few Eagles in doubt for tonight. Matai and Dylan Walker mentioned. Keep an eye on late team lists

Yeah true. I want to wait a week to see how he goes before committing.

carty news:

Martin Gabor ‏@MartinJGabor 1h1 hour ago
Bryce Cartwright is training with the main group despite dislocating his thumb on the weekend

Tommy T owners what are your plans. I fear Manly may struggle with no DCE. May result in some low scores for Tom. A straight swap to mansour could be tempting

Ok at the moment I'm:
Peats - Parcell
Green - Hunt

If Garvey gets replaced on monday... shit happens. Ill cop it.

2 gun hookers is the plan eventually - just waiting for the cash cows to get nice and fat before putting a bullet in them. Cheers Shan.

Peats is a hold, he is set and forget all year and has awesome by coverage. I love my pairing with Hodgson as they give me a hooker every bye round and 2 hookers in 2 of the 3 big byes

Dogs play Monday night next round as well so the whole Garvey/Lichaa issue may become a bit of a problem for alot of coaches.

Im super torn with the DCE injury, coupled with uncertainty of both carter and cartwright.

Ive culled some f my options which as left me with two/three.

DCE>JDB via many many swaps
Leaves me with halves of Barba, JNik, Hastings, ATaylor

or

DCE>Milf
Carter> JSaifiti

Or

DCE>TMM
Pauli >JDB


Both leave me with next to no money in the bank.

Fair enough. Hodgson is a pretty sweet POD for you. Elbow injury and extended time on the sideline didn't cause concern?

Do I need to make any changes ??

Smith - Parcell
Graham Surgess Packer Woods
Whitehead Santi Cartwright Carter LeuLuai Moerea
Walker Hastings Maloney Taylor
Gutherson P.Matautai Aubbs Auva
Tedesco, Barba, Mansour, Trobj Mitchell

Cant remember who mentioned it, but they said Mann is back in round 6. The Dragons injury update link I posted last night (As well as the $23K JT Grand Final Headgear) says he will be back this round.
