    If you have Hynes and no Cleary, congrats on being a winner.

    If you have Cleary and no Hynes, I think pivoting to Hynes (either through cash reserves or a straight Cleary to Hynes trade) is a no brainer.

    If you have both, I think hold for more clarity next week (at least that's what I'm telling myself)

    If you have neither, I dunno, pray?

    I have both having held for 4 weeks and think I'm selling now. If they're resting him now chances are he likely doesn't play r14 etc so I'd be holding for 3 games before origin when he's a probable sell now anyway. Keeping Terrell and hoping JWH niggle persists.

    Means I have to play Kris in the centres but it might be worth it for a week just to get captain Hynes in.

    Seems like it probably is worth it.
    Hynes has played at halfback against the Dragons four times for: 94, 98, 89, 89

    A single try in each of the his 3 lowest scoring games, and a tryless 98...

    Maybe he's due for a quiet one, but if he scores another 89+ it seems he goes up $65k+

    You haven't factored in that I wlll be there, I might even boo Nicho to put him off and knock off 30 fantasy pts or so

    The only thing with Hynes is with Cleary being cautiously monitored, you'd think he's 100% a shoe in for NSW. Awkward timing on him now. But if he averages 90 over the next three weeks then I guess its worth it.

    Bye schedule is bearable but not great if in Origin. Would only miss 13 and 19 on top (so 13, 16, 19, 20 in total)

    I'd probably like selling now more if I'd held. But I actually sold then bought back for his 50 lol. So it'll be three trades on Cleary then. Shouldn't really impact the decision (sunk cost) but it does!

    My very rough sums suggests selling immediately is beneficial if he ends up missing more than 1 game, holding the winner if he's back R10. And it's all guesswork.

    I don't see a world where he averages 90 over the next three weeks, unless he scores 180 against the Dragons (Rob may be able to confirm if this is possible).

    After this week; Storm, Roosters, Panthers - perfect opportunity to remind NSW selectors that Hynes & the Sharks aren't big match players (or maybe this year they are???)

    At Henson Park my enthusiasm once lifted Daniel Mortimer to a two try, 2-3 assist MoTM performance. He looked like Jonathan Thurston that day.

    I also think they are being cautious with Cleary because it was his first game back from a hamstring injury with a short turnaround.

    The Panthers and NSW I'm sure are more interested in his long term availability then letting him have a field day against the wooden spooners

    I can't even get around the JWH update, think I still sell May.

    Are you suggesting you will elevate Hynes to a 2 try, multiple try assist 151 point new fantasy record?

    Is there a process anyone is going through to determine who is less likely to shit the bed between
    Weekes/Armstrong/Atkinson I'm thinking in the order written.

    Weekes - scored well in a side that probably won't get pounded like that again and points were base but history doesn't full with confidence

    Armstrong - looked good, ran hard but probably doesn't score tries and attacking stats every game

    Atkinson - plays in a good side and should get attacking stats but considering they pumped raiders didn't do heaps.

    Would like other opinions

    Trying to figure out whether it's worth going a week or two early on selling Finefeuiaki. Can squeeze some more cash out of him most likely, but he's made me 154k so job done, and gotta balance the potential further gains vs the lost cost opportunity of missing out on a Brailey/Garrick/Walker type this week.

    Not a Cowboys fan (Nothing against them btw)

    But I think it’s worth waiting one week for Fine, unless the trade you’re making is going to be super more expensive next week. Fine is a hypothetical R13(?) player.

    Plus we’ve already seen players come back and get injured the week after, unlikely it will happen to Luki, but he does have an injury history…

    basically this.

    weekes having a bye and being another raider means people are happy to wait.

    if weekes keeps the same role from last week he's a no brainer. it just depends whether anything changes at the raiders, but there arent many options except for just swapping strange into primary half.. but that probably doesnt achieve much.

    Weekes - Probably has the job until round 20 when Fogarty returns

    Armstrong - Probably has the job until Ponga returns which was confirmed as "months rather than weeks"

    Atkinson - Has the job until Trindall gets back. Could be next week or could be next year

    I think Atkinson is the worst choice of the bunch purely on job security
