    Going Murray C, Terrell May VC

    Murray fairly safe chance of 50 with some upside of attacking stats if Souths actually do something. Had what I’m coining the Tatola offload last week (-6 where he offloaded to opposition)

    I know everyone is really keen on Turbo and im sure he will destory the dragons. But that extra 200k lets me start upgrading the shitters next week and grab someone like KPP easier. Appreciate any thoughts

    EDIT: I wonder if Kiraz is an option for Kini which leaves 180k but just feels like chasing points...

    my shit team pre trades:

    I think Teddy + Papy is sufficient for WFB guns right now. Getting Turbo as well will likely create a team balance issue down the line.

    Trades for me at the moment are Cleary and Kini to Finefuiaki and Campbell.
    Other options I'm tossing up;

    Cleary > Koro
    Kini > JC

    Cleary > KPP
    Kini > JC

    Cleary > Lussick
    Kini > JC

    Which one makes most sense and why?

    I wouldn't go near JC without seeing what he does behind that pack. I wish I could go back a week and not get Lussick

    Would rather keep Cleary than those combos

    That is sort of were I have ended up. I already have Hynes in the squad and I don't necessarily see the value in Brown. That and my neighbours are hard Eels fans so it makes it difficult seeing them do well.

    Next week I will have ideally Hynes, Cleary, and Wong out with other trade out options being Sitili, Hughes, Levi, Bostock, Hutchinson and Taaffe.

    Prior to whatever carnage eventuates this week to force my hand. Most likely bring in Fog next week as HLF cover or Blaize and play Strange at HLF for a week. The other likely trade being KPP as I have Lussick, Grant and Levi Sad to cover HOK.

    Then hopefully... I can not double trade for one week

    Oh the naive dreams of youth.
    Beating Heart

    I get the feeling this year we will be double trading for a few weeks yet due to HIA / concussion protocols and more injury carnage.
    Then, DoorDash will toss everyone a bonus 4 trades to keep the casuals interested.

    In a insanely small sample size of 4, Campbell actually averages even more as a starter into low 50s without Tino

    Titans were shit the last 2 years where Campbell averaged mid 40s

    If you need the Cleary cash, go for it.
    While I've gone with Turbo, Campbell's game is one that racks up Fantasy points, the kid loves to play slapsies, stepping back into the middle and shutting down the Titans attack while big Dave (or Fermor) waves his arms around with a clear opening or 3 on 2 overlap.
    Campbell will score well even when the Titans suck. As you have suggested the extra $200k will do wonders for future fix-ups.

    Love your faith in Souths.
    I'm worried that Murray is about to breakdown anytime soon. Carrying an injury (and the entire Souths pack on his back).
    He'll score well, but surely there's more points on the table in your team.

    I love this take. Campbell scoring well and him helping his team win aren't necessarily correlated.
    As a Fifita owner watching him butcher lots of try scoring opportunities by running into the defence with Fifita one on one with a small defender outside him.

    All this talk of playing shittoes leads me to accept the truth that some of my cows picks were spuds.
    Currently playing all of Salmon, Strange, Hutcho, Shoes, Duncan in my 17.
    Carrying Piakura, Cleary, Pappy & Chan.

    Trades were going to be Kini + Tuaupiki > Turbo + Talagi
    Even though I'd love to pick up KPP this week, I need WFB cover.

    But, I'm thinking of following Booze's lead and go with the player I most enjoy following.
    Thoughts on Roger instead of Turbo?
    DPP gives me more options down the track and no chance of Origin.
    First bye isn't until Rd.13.

    I think it was the 2022 season Matt.
    I picked up Fifita as my "uber-gun Edge" and watched Titans games more than usual.
    The number of times I'd be yelling at the TV while watching Campbell completely butcher the Titans attack (and Fifita's scoring) was vomit-inducing.
    It's why I never bought Fifita last year and missed all his scores.

    Mcinnes went from the trade block to Captain.

    All of Campbells scores above 40 are in games the Titans either won or were close/competitive.

    I'm sure the Titans will pick things up (campbell + fifita helps), but so far this year they've been absolutely woeful.

    Week is a long time in rugby league though, only have to look at Tigers last week. I kinda like the Titans so i hope they fire up this week.

    And now we wait

    Just noticed getting Blaize this week gives me the option of not having to play Strange or Burbo at CTR ever again*

    I’m probably going Api instead as he’s C candidate and underpriced gun assuming mid 50s to low 60 average

    You wouldn’t C KPP and need 1 more game to judge I think

    Centre roulette chat never ceases every year, everyone expects a 50+ centre for sub 300k.
