So now the guesswork is - will Armstrong come back?

Was going to ditch Ethan Strange, but if Armstrong is out for the short/medium term I'll ditch him instead

If he does get back on the field soon, there is money to be made there though

Feels like I should just wear it this week.

I'm interested in Jayden Campbell who might get a couple of games in before he finds a new and traumatic way to injure himself but it definitely feels like Armstrong deserves a hold for a week or two.

lining myself up for an impulsive 5 mins before kick off trade tomorrow......

hmmmmmm... with his next three now OUT PANTHERS BYE, i reckon he's a pretty easy trade.

another couple of 30's and his money making pretty much stops..

but i say this from a point of view of playing short if i dont trade.

Didn't check the draw.....Shoes is going to be in my team forever isn't he

So Armstrong a gonner. If I bring in Fifi it means 5 on the bye for round 17.

Maybe skip Keon mhmm…

Yeah have to keep him now as well to lose another 30k 🥲

Are we sure that Toilet Paper (TP) wasn’t the death of Mikaele?

Baz confirmed all this I suppose

We're basing this off EASBay17's mate from the Knights forum

If Armstrong is out I guess I'd pivot to either Wighton or Campbell? Koula?

Either way, be good to know asap.

Koula's value was if he was covering trbo at fullback

If Manly are going to play Lehi Hopoate there instead I wouldn't bother trading Koula in

Wighton is the popular trade in here

Campbell was pre-season hype, now that he always seems to be injured I don't know if many people want to take a risk

Randall back to HOK?

It’ll be confirmed before tomorrow night you think

Mrs May should really lock the boys phones up at night.....it'll help their RL careers.

All I know is that I’ve got my captain and VC set.

Tradeded in Fainu because I have no idea what else to do, DPP is handy. Hopefully keeps scoring His average.

Will worry about the rest of the team tomorrow

Think I will just play 16 if Armstrong is out. I don't quite have the cash for Latrell (I am not convinced he will not be picked for Origin) and no one else stands out. If I am desperate, I might just go Wishart.

Should get plenty of KM's when Foran goes off injured.

What if they pull a swifty and we get JC @ FB Boyd @ HLF; and Randall @ HOK

with Kini to one to miss out...

I think I would trade in Boyd instead of Cook in that case

Player loans go the other way

Once we are mathematically done for the season, we send our best players to the title contenders so they have a chance of actually picking up a medal somewhere

I'm thinking more of a repeat of Harry Grant trade
Quality future player, but stick behind others, opportunity for first grade experience at a team lacking edges - what do you think Robbo? I've seen your bench rotations so I know you read the forum

Rating Aitken more important next week, than many of this week's options.

I'd suggest Mikaele is the death of Mikaele.
I swear he was out on his feet after 7 minutes last week, TP was generous keeping him on the field for 15.

Dude spent a chunk of his time getting offside at the ruck so he wouldn't have to be involved in the play.

I thought it could be sickness, but seems like he's been shot after 10 minutes every week

Des keeps trying to drop Boyd. If not staying out of the team this week, as named, Brimsons return in a couple of weeks will give him the opportunity to drop Boyd again.
