Is Iro too risky this week if he is moved to the wing. I know, I should have got him last week.

Smithies it's clear he has stepped up to not just being the alpha in the Raiders pack but the Alpha of the entire comp

Don’t start with that shit

Locked one trade in - Levi to Willison. Basing this purely on eye test (and while Willison may lose minutes when Haas is back, he should get them back over Origin period).

Not sure if I should make a 2nd trade - Kris to Waddell. Don't really think Kris is it this year and Waddell actually looked decent as much as I've never really rated him. Also nice to reduce my number of Raiders.

TU: Kris to Waddell
TD: Hold it

Team pre-trades:

3k short of Angus + CNK in for Burbo and Levi.

Might just do Angus in for Burbo and leave it there.

I’m guessing you have very few Dogs, Eels, Raiders? Trading in a problem during those byes seems silly when there are other money makers to grab

913 for the week and rank of 5337.

Looking at making the two trades this week.

Burbo - Crichton
Cotric - Drinky

Leaves me a team of with 3 trades saved to date:

Grant
May (C)arrigan Hogod
Crichton KPP
Brown Galvin
RTS Kris
Chevy Drinky Papy

Koroisau Smithies Piakurua Salmon
Shoes Strange Iro Blaze

Looking at potentially trading Kris - Waddell but happy to wait a week.

Congrats to all with 900+ scores this week!

The charges continues!

Is not looking like the injuries are going to let up, so will just try to build a team of 21 with plenty of dpp's, then let it all fall into a deep pile of shit.

I think it might benefit his scoring.

Thinking of just making a single trade this week

Russell ==> Iro

It will depend on TLT. Russell has almost bottomed out, and you would hope that at some stage, he scores a try or two and starts to make money, but Iro, if he has indeed claimed the CTR position, might be too shiny and new to pass up.

I would also like to get rid of Sitili, but I don't have enough funds to upgrade him, and there are no downgrades that seem appropriate yet.

I might leave it a week and stick with what I have and make the one trade this week.

Team Tracker to be updated in about 5 minutes

I managed 926 with Burbo, Russell, Shoes and Levi. This week Burbo and Levi become Angus and Iro, then Galvin replaces Russell so I get 1000 this week then?

Arthur just said on 360 Blaize will be on the bench this week. Said he can cover a number of positions and even play in the middle if needed.

That’s this week, but what about the week after?

That’s a terrible idea for fantasy

Shiit, and we know how BA with using his bench.

The week after he will blitz it in NSW Cup.

Haha, you literally only asked about this week.

Don’t know about next week - it’s a risk obviously but I think he was the 18th man for the first few games, so even if Talaki goes back to the centres I figure Iro is only 1 injury or suspension away from coming back in.

Don’t listen to me though, I brought him in whilst he was on the bye . Needed to raise some cash and thankfully he got a game last week otherwise I would have looked sillier than usual.

Ugh yep worse than him being a red dot. Was hoping to just leave him sitting there and use him for looping if I ever get the delight of having more than 18 or more players again.

And also, play in the middle lol righto BA.

No chance he just sits there and doesn’t come on at all?

Maybe he will take Moretti's role - who is a little bit Hopgood-lite at the moment without the off-load

I also noticed that Matterson seems to get hooked last week? Any reason why he came off with so few minutes?

If I was 1 of the dolphin forwards hearing talagi will play some middle i'd be licking my lips knowing i would pulverise the skinny little ctr
