    Luki to Galvin was my first move and it leaves me with 432k in the bank

    can go Wong to anyone 900k or under.

    Yeo is someone im looking. I know he has a bye and won't make cash but secures a gun and a guy to pump out 55-70 every week.

    Fogarty, Lussick my other options to get a bit more value.

    positions dont matter as i have cover everywhere

    Well, Wong dropped at least makes it easy to decide who to trade.

    Wong + Luki OUT.

    Most likely May and Finefuiaki in. Maybe Cotter instead of May. 5k short of getting May and Lussick which would have been nice.

    McInness, Sitili, Flanagan, Hutch should breathe a sigh of relief.

    Always thought whitehead would start when good to go. I thought id get three clear weeks at least though.

    Crossing fingers hes just named but no certainty, and the Hosk gets one more week

    Wongy def out for me.

    yeahhh, wasnt expecting to have to get rid of Wong. but Wong and Luki to Galvin and X frees up a lot of cash. Feels like a waste to get Lussick, but damn it looks like the most logical play

    Now to figure out how to prioritize May, Galvin and Finefeuiaki.

    Or if I can skip any of them. I don't think so. Probably that order.

    Something something reserve grade stats. Finefeuiaki is a 0.47ppm in 80. Not that much better in NRL with 40+ minutes. May + Galvin first.

    Thanks for reading my workings.

    Just on names, maybe I’ve somehow missed it the last couple weeks, but Mavrik Geyer is Mark Geyer’s kid right? because CTE is the only explanation I can come up with for why a) you would give your kid a douchey name like  ‘Maverick’ in the first place and then follow that up by b) spelling it like a preschooler in the ‘spelling it how it sounds’ stage of learning how to write.

    I don’t think MG was the sharpest tool in the shed before footy to be fair. It’s probably how he thought it was spelt.

    As a side note, small time golf club manufacturer Callaway followed his lead with a complete range of Mavrik golf clubs. Despite owning (and loving) several the spelling has always bugged the shit out of me.

    Can go Wong + Hosking to Galvin + Hynes.

    Doesn't do much for getting numpties out of my squad or cash gen but looks nice if I don't make eye contact with my bench

    Kinda tempted to zag and go for Lussick as a 80 minute hooker so I don't have to play Levi next week when Grant's out for Melbourne.

    Have FOMO over May though.

    Fucking lol it was always going to happen wasn't it.

    Extra annoying is I would have gotten Lussick last week if the news about Lolo's knee came out a bit earlier
    Now I have Api I'll have to pass on Lussick, unless I boot Cook...

    Hold one week bro, as long as Hosking is on the field he will make you money. I'm waiting a week to see how it works and if he only gets a short stint he becomes Hynes

    My preseason take on Lussick, "BA wants an 80 minute hooker, Joey Lussick looks to be that guy, I expect Hands to be in the side and play 15-20 to start the season but I think Joey will work his way up to playing close to 80. Avg 71 minutes as a starting hooker for a 45 avg. Should make decent money."
    And for whatever reason decided not to pick him when Hands was named on the bench.

    Wong and Luki to Galvin & Fine leaves me with $449k in the bank.

    Doesn’t feel right to leave that there.

    Maybe I should upgrade one instead of two cashdowns.

    🤔

    That TLT changes my trading plans a bit...
    Luki to Curran (extra cover in the forwards for when I trade Hosking to Turbo next week)
    Wong to Galvin (I would have rather traded Sitili)

    Will see how KKFF performs this week, and will do the same for Samuela

    One of my earliest set in stone personal rules is ‘no bench forwards’ after being burned more than my fair share by them starting out, May is probably going to be one of those players I miss the boat on because I can’t bring myself to break said rule.
