With this news I ~could hold Cleary for the moment..

Piakura and Levi
-to-
KPP and Galvin

It does mean I have to let Levi go when he finally gets a 45 for everyone that held.. and hold Chan (just don't quite have the cash).. hmmm

Trading a green dot at hooker is a huge flex. Love it

I’m 4K short of Luki to KPP so similar dilemma of not being able to get Galvin just in for a dud (ie Kini)

I don't think I can actually do it tbh. Having Cleary as a red dot next week will just leave me wanting to trade in a weeks time. I highly doubt he suits up when they have a bye the week after anyway.

Levi has been ass for scoring, but there's a world where he nabs a 40+... its incredibly unlikely.. but...

Yeah, I have two vacant WFB slots this week and no interest in filling them. Thankfully I have two other slots to fill too. I will need to do something about it asap, but too many other points of interest this week. Good excuse for Campbell audition.

As bad as he is just can’t bin him when sub 20 BE with a green dot. He can become Talagi next week if kid goes well in the halves

Missed a fair chunk of the footy on the weekend, does KPP have good job security? Isn't he only in the team because Lucas was out or do we reckon he's cemented the spot now?

Aren’t you also a Fog fader

So Galvin Hutch combo this week? Bruh

Idk about full security. Lucas is in reserves and he’s a new recruit. One loss and things could change idk

He did score 40 in his other 80 minute start. It’s a 2 full game sample size

I am new to this game, be nice. I heard Hutch was a gun.

Maybe i'll just get a half ffs.

I see value there given how long Moses is out for, and that 405k bank will be needed to get Ponga next week, so some fresh money coming in will be nice.

Yeah not sure if he’s another Galvin type or a Strange type. Maybe he is somewhere in between which is just fine at his price. If I see Galvin as a gun then I guess gun/cow is a sound strategy

Harden up and don't be a sook.

If you played golf, a double bogey will hurt you initially but you guts it out and try to get birdies. Or at least you try. You learn a lot about a bloke on a golf course.

Golf is like life.

Stop sooking.

Maybe you'd like to help me out, Rabbit. We can mend fences.

No matter what I do I slice my drive right, 100% of the time. I'm 6'2 and spent my juniors playing cricket and can't stop wanting to cover drive the ball. My chipping and putting is pretty good but I drive as well as Paul Walker.

Prior to this season Levi had cracked 40 in 5 of his last 6 starts at hooker (going back multiple years and different teams) but that's why I didn't trade him last week.

I would like to hold Piakura, because if he ever gets to play multiple games in a row in the forwards he is going to make cash - just might need to wait a while for that to happen

Idk I kinda want Fog but then could also wait and get Dylbags. Fog seems steady

Piakura was walking fine right after the injury in the training footage.

"up to four weeks rehab"... maybe its more like two. maybe head trainer was just having a sulk with all the other injuries.

levi and piakura can stay.

An interesting macro point I just thought as I was looking at DBrown and already having Fogarty. Both playing R13 but Hynes also playing R13 if not Origin meaning one is surplus (granted this could be useless with an injury in the next 20 mins)

Makes me think I should go a MID like Carrigan/Tohu who would probably be my best captain

Holding Cleary could well pay off. So if you can still field 17 definitely cut Lolo, bleeding too much cash

Piakura is an easy trade in later, when he eventually starts again. Very different to trading a Cleary, who will be really hard to get back in again.

Can't get to 17 even with double trading so doing the following

Wong>Hynes
Moses>Turbo

Need Cotric to sneak in to get 17 so shouldn't miss too much anyway

Cleary a hold until next week to see if we get any news

Can do Cleary and Kini to Koro and Teddy with my bank, and I think I just might. Halves look like dogshit now though

Just starting to accumulate to many shit edges. Piakura, Chan & Wong

Yeah, it’s super awkward but I agree that if it’s possible I’d prefer to hold Piakura. At one point he’ll be worth having in your team and it’d be sickening to use another trade on him to add to how unpleasant the ride has been so far.

What’s the story with Jaiyden Hunt? 250K, worth a punt? One issue I see is that you’d want to be on him this week to get the most out of his 4 weeks, and there’s too many better options, arguably. Issue two, I guess, is Willison? Is he likely to play a lot of Hunt’s possible minutes, or might he get a fair crack?
