    Weekes, Plath, Pryce out. Pick up any of Haas, Barnett, Ponga, Crichton etc

    Thanks for the advice,sorry I should have pointed out that I only have the 4 trades remaining

    You need to get rid some of those though, I'd go 2 minimum. Get some guns in.

    I think this week its important to bring in as many top tier guns as you can as most people will be in a position to play their strongest team. But after this week if you can hold trades for 2-3 weeks then that will be a huge advantage as alot will probably use their final trades next week.
    Ive tried to make sure I dont have two guns from the same team who still have a bye, e.g. Teddy and Watson or Haas and Patty. Makes covering those weeks a bit easier.

    If you can bring in Haas (or Cleary, or Yeo, or Fifita or any of the guys in the upper tier of scoring) in a single trade. Then yes, you should make that trade this week. Its going to be a clear upgrade on points for whoever you trade out.

    I can do Cleary Haas Yeo for Hands Plath Sipley with 111k left over

    Main reason I’ve gone for JC over Turbo. Makes life easier next week with Garrick in the team

    Beautiful

    You could say Cleary (80) alone matches Plath (35), Sipley (25), Hands (20)

    Need to decide on a keeper WFB and can't quite afford Ponga

    Kini averaging 56 as a starter since getting back in the team?
    Turbo with a bye still to come?
    Kiraz in a Bulldogs team surely due a drop off with high floor?
    Drinky with a soft run home?

    ATM I've got Drinky but could easily serve up a few rubbish scores that makes him no better than Marzhew or AJ in the 17

    Drinks second worse score this season is pretty much AJs average. His 3rd worst is just above Marzhews season average

    Had the same decision last week and still need another WFB probably. I went Drinky last week, draw is good but I have now doubled up on rd25 bye with Cotter which isn't the most ideal.

    I've thought Kiraz is going to drop off for the last 10 weeks but it just doesn't happen. RM, TBs and Offloads super consistent and Bulldogs are in every game this year. Draw is pretty good too. Might be in for me this week if I trade Plath. I think he is actually the superior option to Drinkwater with no bye to come and should've just gone that way last week.

    If Brimson was out for the season then I'd happily get Kini, Turbo not an option with Garrick also in the team.

    I'm leaning towards just Hands and Sipley to Cleary and Curran as think trades are more valuable than anything and Haas misses at least 1 game left. Yeo I might still do

    Same, same....can afford Ponga if I hold off on a small upgrade from Fainu to Curran (I'm leaning this way)

    I'd probably go with Drinky out of that lot and still may do that (Edit: already have Kiraz and yes he has been super consistent so he's a worthy option)

    Also had a look at HTF now he's back at FB.....riskier but a ceiling play (Walsh lite?)

    A good option, just not sure I'm keen on relying on him continuing to average 1.5 tries per game. Am warming to the idea though.

    I like Kini, just a bit too risky with Brimson getting fit and taking his spot

    Who would you play as 3rd WFB out of Isaako, Talau and Gray?

    Is Harrison Graham back on bench in Q Cup a reason to hold Plath?

    Could be but I'm not hanging around for a couple of weeks of 30's to find out. If trades are tight he's probably a wait and see but anything over 6 and I think he's worth a trade (I've gone him to Brown for HLF cover)
