I would take the safe option and go PODene. I won't be trading him in so he won't be struck down by the KFP curse so should score 55 consistently for the rest of the year.

Yep, not sure what I was thinking. Bye last weekend. Sorry lads, been a long morning after I missed my alarm and had to race to work!
Hopefully he gets dropped before this game, Takairangi moves back to the halves and Guth can go back to the centres which is really all I care about (plus other people having no Norman!)
Wrong again filth. It was three weeks ago in rd16

Problem with Norman is if they don't tell us what's going on before lockout. Do I just trade him out for a gun forward via Cartwright now assuming he'll be suspended? Or do I wait and see how things pan out? If he's not playing I'll need to trade him to field a team.

Are ET and CLaw keepers? Want to trade one of them out but wondering if there's any benefit to it.
CLaw stunk up the joint but outside of Aitken there's nobody really that consistent out there that would be worth the trade at this stage of the season. Dugan's tempting but the increase in points versus the cost of the trade seems quite low going by Last 3/5 round averages.
ET just had a great score but doesn't seem to score particularly well outside of bye rounds. Looking at Mannering, Gallen, James or maybe even CP13 as a replacement.

I wouldn't worry about it if I were you... you can still have a good score with 16 players on the field
and it increases my chances in our H2H

I am clearly losing the plot. I even watched the Roosters/Eels game. Wow.

The other issue is we don't know how Robson affects Norman's score with the De Gois injured last game. He's bound to get suspended for being a prat at some stage, think I might just get rid of him

Both could be upgraded if you have the trades. I'm keeping both for the time being, but Claw would go before ET I think.

Haha, Carter getting sacked.............again.
That's 1 reason its called the Carter Award and now the name will surely live forever (in our generation anyway).

I have barely watched NRL over the weekend. Sold Barba then he pumps out 70, dam.
What page can I find the week 1 Eliminator match ups on?

I am just so I can get 17 this week if Munster plays. I figure his 18 is better than 0 points and in the unlikely event he finds some form could be a decent backup for the run home

Origin/news pending, thinking of going:
Norman -> Fifita
Claw -> Tommy Turbo
4 trades left
Thoughts?

If anything he has to be better than copley, who a lot of people are carrying like a hangover.
having him in my team means i cant loophole which is a good tactic this weekend for some.

So with Macca and Hurrell in I will have 17 players but that does include Manu and Munster. So 15 worst case scenario. Leaves me 6 trades and 350k haha.
You get an upgrade, you get an upgrade, everyone gets an upgrade

Those trades look good to me. Did Norman receive a ban?
