How likely is it for Lichaa to be a late inclusion?

Not likely at all

i might see if i can hold off on trading DCE this week (and potentially at all). stupidity?

I'm holding on to him

So this is my team heading into this week..



Looking at Aubbusson -> Milford/MBye/Austin/Norman and Carter -> Cashcow/Cheapie (Not sure who yet.) For next week if I make it through without injuries.

Does anyone want to wager a guess how much JDB will go up in price if he hits another 60's score again this week???

Right now my plan is to trade Carter out for B Law and swap DCE for Mbye leaving me 63k. If J Turbo's confirmed out for another few weeks than I'll swap with JDB but with a BE of 28 and the way he's scoring there is a slight chance he could go beyond the affordability range if he bangs out a high score and so I want to know just how risky I'll be playing it by holding J Turbo for the week and hope it's not too serious.

I hope J Trbo is good, not looking forward to starting another week with 2 players injured (Carty)

I am not convinced JTurbo's absence week have a massive impact on BLaw.

I'm also trying to think long term target than a 1 or 2 week hit.

Might preference BLaw anyway, just for cash reasons

Okay so I feeling like I'm in a bit of a dilemma. My team currently looks like, pre trades:

Smith/Parcell
JTrbo/Surgess/KEvans/Gavet
Parker/Turner/Merrin/JSaifiti/Rochow/Whitehead
DCE/CWalker/Taylor/Hastings
CLaw/Gutherson/PetMat/BHenry
Barba/Gordon/Mitchell/Feeney/CScott

I want PetMat out. With the potential to lose a further 20k this weekend I think he needs to go, so I've pretty much got pencilled in:

PetMat -> HHunt

With DCE and KEvans in there, and JTrbo looking like he's out, I have no idea what the next patch needs to be? Or do I suffer the hit with PetMat and fix both of them?

To simplify the question. Who are the two most important to fix: DCE, KEvans (To cover JTrbo), PetMat?

That is a very solid looking team, Random
Having Rochow outside your 17 says a lot.

He's probably next on my upgrade list along with Lafai downgrade but no hurry for either of them, might leave them til the byes.

Saving trades now (after this round of bringing in JDB and Dugan)

Yeah I am hoping after next week I can start to conserve trades and wait until a few more guys peak. I also brought in JDB and Dugan in this week as well for Grant and DCE.

He will probably go up around another $20 000 or so if he hits 60 again this week.

Also looking at JDB's scores, is there a reason why he scored below 40 the opening two rounds? Was he getting less minutes? No attacking stats? What has transitioned him into having two big weeks?

So what cows are close to full? And what ones still have a lot to give?

Like who needs to go soon?

Just saw Fox Sport news saying that Lichaa trained with main squad with a heavily strapped knee, whilst Garvey trained with the NSW Cup squad FML.

I need to know how solid the J Turbo outage info is .................

aaargh for Peats sake!

FUUUUU Lichaa

J Turbo out, Garvey training with the NSW Cup squad. Woods a plodder, Aubusson being Aubusson......... I have a bad headache right now and it is all Fantasy induced.

Easiest way to find out is to check their BE against their average. If the point difference is about 5 points in difference they have basically reached their peak. So for my own squad R. Rochow is close to peaking, which is good as T. Sims will be back soon and could impact on him. (I will probably hold R. Rochow for the first week Sims is back to see how it affects things.) 

Other than that I don't think there would be many cows that have peaked. Duds like T. Grant certainly have though.
