Why? Gordon goes missing when you need him most. Expect a score in the teens or twenties this week.

Who would start instead?

Is Jimmy James Graham?

Yes it is!

I was thinking of going Aitken and ET, but want JGraham also. Is 514K too much to pay for him? I feel it is, but his scores are obviously worth the asking price tag.

J. Graham is worth every dollar. He averages 59. With a b/e of 49 this week his price can only rise.

Just as I thought.  Looking at either;

Blaw - Felise or Kaufusi o Ese'ese
Lolohea or Lamb - ET via Claw
Mansour - Aitken

or

Lamb - Hughes
Mansour or Lolohea - Felise via Claw (Just for the DPP)
Blaw - JGraham

What do we think?

Thanks.

my tv broke wrote:^ sort of depends on the rest of your squad i think. in option one i dont particularly like downgrading blaw - ideally you turn him into a gun forward as per option 2. but in option 2 you're only getting one keeper out of the trades.

Smith (Parcell)
Fifita Surgess (Blaw, Leulani)
Fensom Lowe Carty (Claw Bhana Benry)
Milf SJ (Lamb Feeny)
BJ Holland (Lolohea Guth)
Barba Mitchell Munster (Mansour Radradra)

I'm thinking I need another forward, looking at Graham in the front and Surgess in the back with Claw back into the centres then I still have 4 decent 2FR. Aitken would be nice, but my backs are pretty stacked already especially if Claw moves down.

my tv broke wrote:yeah i think option 2 suits better.

Thanks mate, you're a champ.

You know thinking about this Hughes fellow, I know nothing of him, but it looks like he'll play at least two games, but Green has spoken of resting JT again and he did rest him in one game last year, so there is potential to snag another game in between the origin rounds if he does well this week.

my tv broke wrote:alright, so revised trades:

ash taylor-> ben hunt
brock lamb-> jayden su'A
aubbs -> aitken

leaves me with 16 trades and this for rnd 11

hodgson
graham (C)
fensom, whitehead, ET, kenny edwards
Bhunt (VC), Norman, Feeney
Aitken, Holland, Su'A
Gutherson

They are fucking solid trades.

hmm. yeah i know nothing of him either.

bit of googling. 172cm and 90kgs according to cows site. has played NRL once before for the titans in 2013. been playing FB for the blackhawks in q cup. not sure if he's a better option than su'A, as you say, will ~likely~ play two big byes (if he gets another go in rnd 18).

That's the only thing if this Su'a goes to the bench like you said, Hughes might be a potentially better option.

Hughes is a cash out that plays 2 difficult bye weeks and then disappears into obscurity. What more can you ask for?
