Looking at 2023 stats though, he can have some stinkers playing the halves, quite a few scores in that 20-35 point range

Here are my thoughts on the 4 popular tigers this week

Uto - Highest priced and most likely to be a keeper. A tiny bit of upside at his price but I expect you don't get much more than 50-55 range. Will retain his role after the big dogs return
Twal - Most likely to benefit from the injuries/suspension imo. Priced at 41 we should be seeing 60-65 minutes for 50+ points. Klemmer back in 18 might put a slight damper on his role but can be flicked with the round 20 trades for a proper keeper
Fainu - Priced at 34 I just don't think he is a fantasy relevant scorer at this point in his career. Averages less than 40 as a starting second rower with a decent sample size. Won't score enough points to be a keeper, won't make enough cash to be a cow. The only one of the four I'm not considering
Seyfarth - The worst footballer of the four with the least job security. Priced at 29 he should score 40+ as long as he has the job. If he lasts to round 20 can be moved to a proper gun for a decent profit


TL;DR Uto as a keeper, Seyfarth as a cow, Twal to hedge your bets both ways, don't buy Fainu

For those needing a rd16 hooker Verrills worth considering. Brimson might come back into the halves when he returns (listed as rd18) so not sure what will happen with Randall then.

Presumably Foran will kick the ball a lot also, for however many mins he lasts.

I’d expect Boyd comes in late and they reshuffle

Yeah mate, it was a knock to his ankle. He's had a jab and said he will be good to go after the bye. I'm trading him but he would have had a really big score had he stayed on the rest of the 80 and golden point.

Any thoughts?

Fermor.  Or Preston if you can fill 19.

Or obviously Aitken.

White Lightning wrote:

for me he's a cash cow...priced at 29 & averaging 43.7 in his last 3 games & he's cheap & starting whereas hughes with a b/e of 54 his price will plummet...i actually wanted k. haas who averages 52 when starting at lock but couldn't afford him

oh interesting, wasnt aware he got hurt, maybe i should punt Smithies then. was only really holding for rnd 16 ..

i really should look at some bye planning stuff.

ok i've looked for 3 seconds. can see why everyones buying koala. its because he just scored a tonne.

think my trade outs are hynes/smithies/matterson/mikaele (and 600k bank).. difita is coming in, and i need mids.. although Plath still kind of looks a good buy ..
