2 Wongs (EDG and bench) don’t make a right. Assuming the second wong (Piakura)is a solid scorer though then the trades seem good. Both should make some cash even if their roles regress closer to 40/60 mins from their good start.so worst case is you make 100k total for 2 trades - not great but hardly season defining.

If the bank stretched I’d maybe suggest Koro over Liddle (I think Koro has more upside for a similar price) or even just Fog/Duncan instead (could go worse but also Fog could be a cut price keeper and Duncan while he’ll make less cash than both Liddle and Bodyslam works with the cash amount and probably has a similar risk profile to both) .

The problem with Lolo is that it is hard to play him in your 17, knowing that he could get a low minute game at any time at the whim of Payten. Could be 18th man at best?

There’s no one at that price point I’d be more confident in playing in my 17. And before you suggest a cheap Wests Tiger, I’d like to get a look at them first.

Is there a limit on downvotes? I have given at least a couple of those

I don’t contribute a lot but I’m grateful for the wisdom of the group!

Koro I like too but his price won’t get away as fast as Liddle’s. Might have both in coming weeks. Want to watch Koro and see how Tigers actually go, as Sezer could just start and Sullivan bench, then Koro isn’t even 80, for example

I'm going May first given that Horsburgh is back next week and we can thus get a look at what he does to Smithies.

There are a bunch of people who will be playing Jaeman Salmon in their 17 this week, despite him scoring just a few extra points in 4 times the minutes last week (half of them out at CTR, but his role his no more secure than Lolo's)

Just via the imaginary numbers and then combining them with real numbers, which up until this moment I thought was standard.

What’s complex numbers got to do with loci? (To the extent of you being shocked we can teach complex numbers without that concept)

Agree on the Tigers

As you have pointed out both Smithies and TM8 have minutes questions moving forward but tbh both are probably still going to decent enough minutes to at least maintain their current pricing with potential for upside.

Honestly I'd probably go for flexibility if I had to choose between the two this round but ideally you probably want both if the cards play out the way we hope. I'm waiting another week on TM8 just to see what happens with Cotter & Tups this week.
