Means I have to trade Hynes instead of Fuller, to bring in Yeo.

Hynes > Yeo
Hughes > Twal
Mikaele > Latrell

Should all be upgrades for points this season.

In theory I will have a full team for every round until R20 when we get more trades.

I thought byes seemed okay? And like Dylbags, he can still be pretty worthwhile with Munster back. I do take your point about being full priced, but maybe still a tiny bit of value while Munster is out?

I just think he should be a good, reliable scorer for at least the next few rounds.

He is fit for RD15 if that helps your decision.

It totally depends on your team's bye schedules, granted.

But as for value... SWalker is cheaper by 100k and scoring very well, Moses is similarly priced with upside, Sexton is there for the gamblers, and CWalker/Wighton for the old school types.

There's too many things that have to go right and too many other options for me to be happy taking Jahrome.

That's Smithies you speak of? Did anyone mention what happened to him at the end of last week? Was it maybe just cramps?

Like I said, would be happy to hold him but unless I leave myself super short this week I need to punt someone I'd otherwise be happy to hold. Actually started looking at - I dread to say - Seyfarth (again, this season) too. Makes me some decent cash, could possibly score similar/same and gets me an extra number this week. Tempted.

80 minutes at least gives him the opportunity to do something?

But what are thoughts on Hughes, of the Jarome variety? Can't see him being anything but an A+ pick up right up until R20, and should still be a pretty decent hold beyond, but not seeing much chat about it. Is it recent injury issues being the concern?

I've been wondering the same thing about Twal. Are people not worried about his minutes at all? And why the love over Uto?

Teeth Eater wrote:

Yep, that put me off too, actually. Ideally he’s a wait and see, which still leaves me with Smithies as a question mark and a red dot this round, leaving me with 15 starters. I could/should go straight to Fifita (if QLD win), but then same old story next week, I’ll need a MID, again, like half the rounds this year.
