    Deciding whether to loop in Fainu or Hands over Blore's 37 is about as stale of a fantasy decision I've had to make all year

    I am enjoying the challenge at this part of the season. Most of my players are playing, I can easily field 17 players, and the tough decisions are whether it is worth spending a trade to upgrade one of my worst players or hold the trade.

    What we had in the middle of the season - where just fielding 17 players was a challenge, and every week deciding whether to trade or trade or not wasn't really optional because you just didn't have enough players available. That is not fun. Nobody like looking at their team on a Tuesday evening to be greeted by a sea of red dots and unavailability. If they don't make changes to squad sizes or number of trades, I suspect they'll see a big hit on player numbers. Especially as Supercoach and Dream Team already give you 25 player squads and more trades

    Curran battling an AC joint injury. Its possible he'll just play on through injury, which makes trade decision tougher - do you hold trade and push through some lower scores hoping he comes good?

    Almost hope he just gets ruled our for a couple of weeks to justify pulling the trigger.

    thanks for the curran info. sounds like it might be worth a trade. tough call. can do anyone up to DCE (DCE would leave 0 bank lol) which is pretty tempting. DCE or Tapine. I like the DCE shout that a few have mentioned. Fog JC Ben Hunt Haumole could all be nice plays as well. Actually Haumole looks pretty good.

    Started the year with Hunt. Stressful viewing but doing well now the team is.

    Appreciate this might be a bit of a contrary opinion, but I enjoyed the mid-season carnage. Was definitely challenging and I played with 16 in Rd 15 and 11 in Rd 19. But maybe just like NRL coaches accept playing with less than 17 some weeks, we have to do the same.
