    Looking at predicted teams, McInnes gets a lot of talk . Whether he gets in or not is anyone's guess

    I assume 2 of Koroisau/McInnes/Robson will be there. Personally I think NSW are stronger without McInnes but who knows what Madge thinks.


    I'm running JMK at the moment, will try and add Cook to that - he's currently sub $700k, and ideally stays there for R14
    Then upgrade JMK once origin is done

    Just had a quick look at bye planning with Rd 13 and 14 sneaking up on us.

    Don't lose sight of Round 16 folks. What a cluster fk.
    Looks like I'll be max trading the two weeks leading up to it just to field double digit green dots!

    If Maguire is picking a hooker from his Souths days, then McInnes is probably 3rd on the list

    R14 tougher than R16 IMO

    If Tedesco avoids origin I can potentially field 13 with my current team, so don't think it will be that tough to get something together

    I have plenty of Roosters/Raiders + a Dolphin making r14 look tough, and that is before you consider potential no-shows backing up from origin.

    I’m not too worried about round 16 trades will be at a premium be very hard to get 12-13 out round 16 along with getting 16-17 out round 14

    yeah the post origin no-shows is a tricky one. The Panthers were playing late after each bye, so chances of Cleary getting a run were relatively high.
    Fifita might need to back-up rd 14 due to the injury crisis at the Titans, they have the bye in 17 so he automatically gets a rest after SOO game 2.
    Haas and Carrigan will probably back-up, but are likely to have reduced minutes, Haas will probably still score well

    Ha I briefly forgot I still need to get a hooker to cover Brailey rd12, guess I'll hope a magical solution pops up next week, the options seem non existent.

    Chester went for Atkinson. Would you suggest Weekes instead? Flip a coin? Is both an absolute must?

    Ah righto. Thought surely I couldn't have confused your team, but didn't look close enough at your posted team and FOG team.

    Yeah I think Weekes over Atkinson for job/role security.

    I grabbed Atko last week just hoping he could sit in the NPRs hitting 30 to make some cash and play Rd 13. Definitely would've grabbed Weekes ahead of him if not on the bye. Hynes out just boosted Atko and made it look a better pick than it initially was. Could make decent cash if holding the spot through to the bye if hitting 30s alongside Hynes though. If Hynes is out this round and 13, he's probably worth it still.

    I'd probably dump Chester and BSmith/Kris for Weekes and Atko, but maybe saving a trade is better. I can't seem to lately. Hopefully I can get away with just 1 this week.

    Though if Batman's long term, him instead.

    Yeah good thing I put it on Cleary

    The idea for me behind early round lock out was to have a player early that you would be happy to take their score if your captain was ruled out.

    This week it would be someone like Haas or Carrigan.

    I've never done it purely for the sake of locking in VC early with someone like Garrick

    Last year i planned for byes and it didn't play out how I wanted. Might just roll with the punches this year and navigate out of it from there.

    Putting the VC on a guy who plays first just because he plays first is pretty stupid.. eg Garrick who is a centre that plays centre.

    Unless your plan is to rage trade a VC because he's a late withdrawal it makes little sense.

    *considering Weekes, but messes with round 14 too much

    Not playing 13

    Hynes, Gus, Jolliffe, Galvin, Garrick, Walsh, Harris, Bateman

    I throw the term around a lot less than most but I think Weekes is a must have. Even a 40 average sees him make 140k in the next 3 weeks

    If he gets anywhere close to Fogarty's average you are leaving a lot of cash on the table

    I think long term it will be far better playing a MID short in R13 than trading in someone who isn't a keeper just to get 1 week worth of scores.

    Maybe a great cash cow will turn up, but I will not be forcing a player into my team if there isn't a long term use for them.
    Odds are I'll get far better use out of my trade replacing an injured player late in the season.

    This was the approach I used last year to avoid trading in guys like Drinkwater.

    Sometimes you get lucky with a hot streak but I will certainly not be paying a 45 point price for a guy I think will average 45

    Weekes way more important than Atkinson imo

    Weekes guaranteed role as dominant half next to a non kicking partner

    Atkinson in a role where guys tend to average about 30 (next to Hynes)

    The thing that kept me away from Atkinson was this whole Trindall situation, which one might describe as “tricky” Badum1 but he definitely announced himself as the one to run the team w/o Hynes, so I’ll find a way to get him, too. If it’s for Bateman, then that’s what it is, if it’s for Kris, I’m sure I’ll figure out my 13th and final spot for round 13 then. Although, it’s good chances I’ll just play with twelve that week.
