What trades are you making this week?

This question has nothing to do with our eliminator match

If you are ever keen, shoot me a PM and i'll set you up with a local driver/logistics guy who we worked with. He's excellent.

As for Fantasy related news, the Bludgers are going all in. 3 trades done, 1 left.
J.Brails / Weekes / Plath became Fog / Grant / Howarth [picked up Cleary last week].

Holding on for the run home.
Knowing how my Fantasy luck works, I'd recommend you check my team list and avoid the players I'm running as they will no doubt cop an injury of some type before Rd.26.

Best of luck for those up near the top - I ride with Chewie.

hey bro my trades will be sam walker & plath out - cleary & howarth in
the only change will be if munster starts then i might sell hughes instead of walker but not sure as the storm play the eels & hughes could go large even with munster there

 How many trades left? I have Walker and I think he scores enough to stay in my 17. Seems very luxury trade

Almost finished - a few eps left - still good but not season 1-2 levels. Almost nothing is happening! Too many standalone episodes.

Rwanda had a horrific genocide in 1994, since then there has been massive effort from multiple NGOs to help rebuild Rwanda.
It's pretty amazing to see the progress that has been made since then. Grateful for people like "the Bludger" who go out there and make a difference

Most info in the western world is only about the genocide of Tutsi people in 1994 (approx 1 million massacred in 100 days).
But, Rwanda is incredible. They have turned their nation around in less than 30 years. It is safe, and going ahead economically. The country is beautiful, the people are friendly and positive, the wild life is amazing. If you get the chance, do a tour.

I have to concur....whinging about non stats is pretty tiresome (but I'll let it slide in the immediate aftermath of a game or round) let alone going actually go to the effort of writing an outraged email, ffs

I would however like to be called 'righteously indignant' as it's one of my favourite phrases (maybe I was moonlighting at the NRL angry email answering department @robelgordo)

i have 4 trades left before trading. yes you are right but the only other player i can sell to get cleary is hughes & since hughes has finished his byes & plays the eels whereas walker has a bye in rd 23 so he has 1 less game plus i already had 3 roosters including walker it made more sense to sell him

If getting Cleary meant me having to navigate 7 rounds with 2 trades left I'd probably have to seriously consider going without
