    Anyone jumping on Cody Walker this week? Could see him as an awesome buy for the next 10 weeks, though not many of us need yet another half (especially for those getting Weekes next week).

    Speaking of halves, was just reading the article on nrl.com and it sounded more like Luai might try to step into Cleary’s role? Not sure if that means he’ll actually play halfback and Cole five/eighth, but could be interesting at his price if he picks up a stack of kick metres.

    Joey Manu's put out a couple of YouTube VLOGs last couple of weeks. At the end of the most recent one Cheese was talking about how he traded out May to Angus last week Lol

    He also is aware of his own shitty fantasy scoring haha

    More than any other season, people seem to be trading based on whatever happened last week

    People knew (or should have known) Terrell May was capable of up and down, but still a lot of trade him on or our based on whatever he just scored.

    The one that gets me is Corey Waddell, scoring fine for a few weeks. One bad score and a bunch of people trade him out to miss his 51. I was genuinely surprised when he was mentioned as a tradeout option

    He scored 1 try in the rest of his career and miraculously scored a double the week everyone sold and also has a full strength pack where he’s probably capped at 40 mins max

    Was the right decision to sell

    He'll string together 2 weeks of 50+ at some point and there will be talk of trading him back in.

    I’d love to jump on him, this week or any week.
    It’s just unfortunate that there are laws against that kind of thing.

    Bought in Matto for Salmon instead of eisenhuth for Piakura. Excitement/funs not all it’s cracked up to be 😂. I’m an idiot. Another 50 for big boring Tom?

    Wiremu Trades Gone? wrote:Since Schieder was injured last night and is out for a few weeks it’s hard to look past Cole.

    Scored 24 in a half just tackling and kicking and is $230k

    Scored 50 odd next to Cleary in WCC.

    I am going to ditch Smithies this week, just need to work out who for.

    Can afford Jolliffe - could be overpaying but he probably still has a bit of money to make, the way he is playing. Of all the players I didn't trade in this season, he is my biggest regret.

    Its either that or bring in Moale/Fainu for cash and then get Payne Haas next week

    Any other MIDs worth getting? If Arrow was fully fit I'd like him given the Souths injury list but I think he's closer to reinjury than good scores.

    Prior to the injuries this week, it looked very likely that Waddell would be back to the bench next week with Haumole and Burbo the starting edge. It now looks likely that Burbo moves to centre and Waddell keeps the starting edge.
    Not necessarily a bad trade, just a bad result.

    Assuming you can't afford a big gun in Gagai or Manu?

    Out of the two, I'd probably pay up for Ramien.  Kelly and Sami also going okay.  Or take a punt on a cheap Wighton.

    Thanks for the feedback Wolfy

    I'm holding Terrell to ditch Smithies, does that make it better?

    Main reason to ditch Smithies, is don't think he's a keeper, and has 2 byes in 5 weeks, so may as well go now.
    Can cover this week, so holding for 13 a possibility and then ditch for R14. But if I can get someone in this week who is a keeper, and or well undervalued then beneficial to pull the trigger now
