R11 Trade poll

Some big name, long term outs, so plenty of cash to get players in

3 outs seem settled, 3 ins all over the shop

Getting both Weekes and Koula doesn't seem right with team structure (also a problem for my own team), but I guess can wear it for a weak. I'ts a weak starting MID vs a weak #17

I went Jolliffe, Nikora, Weekes.

As I write this, we're trading in Koula + Nikora or Yeo

If we traded in both of Nikora + a MID then our last 2 spots would be between Strange, Salmon, KPP, Armstrong.

If we trade Koula in instead of a MID, then presumably he goes into team instead of Nikora/Yeo and we'd have to play Salmon
We'd be playing Salmon, Hughes Cotter this week, and then hoping Plath comes back next week so we could ditch Salmon (Hughes would have to stick around)

If we trade Koula over an EDG, then we at least get to choose which of KPP/Salmon we put in the team, but they'd have to start, so no looping available.

We already have cover at WFB/CTR and all seem playable, so really you're banking on Koula keeping the 70s coming in order to justify the hit to team balance.

Koula does average 73 at fullback

Small sample size though of course. I think Weekes is a must (we'll need him for a rd 13 wfb)

Walsh out so Koula maybe makes more sense now anyway

Should we pivot Waddell out to Salmon given news of his dropping?

Yes, I was just about to say if Hynes is a late out, the team is playing with 16.
