    I'd love to save my trades for later, but my H2H match up this weekend is a must win

    Using my last 2 trades this week.

    I've got a little bit of depth in my team to cover for most positions if injuries hit

    In same boat Chewie....I have had a lucky run the last few weeks injury/suspension wise. But must win in H2H and not confident my team can, so 2 trades coming up and hope it works. Worse case scenario I lose, but if I can crack the top 1000 at the end of the season I will be happy, 1490 was my previous best.

    james off! fuck yeah, teddy broken jaw. Damn almost everything that can go my way is atm.

    Captaining Sammy Burgess or fifi this week I think (not going to risk smith- i think with the last short turn around for the year and the way bellamy has been talking over the last month or so this is a rest risk round imo + i want to have a loophole option available could be the difference at the top(no hodgson this week takes out the option for smith))

    It would be interesting to see who still has some trades left of the top 10 teams

    Hopefully having Rapana, Mansour, Hodgson and Bodene will help you gain some spots

    And yeah Captaincy choice and loopholing will make or break your overall winner aspirations Trophy

    Good luck

    cheers

    yeah after watching closely the  last couple of weeks, its the POD's and the C choice that makes ground

    I don't think there's many tbh, think i've seen like 3 changes in the top 10 in the last 3 weeks, but they all have it covered with gurto/barba atm


    just trying to get close enough for a last round left feild C choice to bring me the biscuits

    though, i did see that belamay said he wont be resting smith

    I've got one trade left but I'm keeping that in my back pocket I think (dodged all of the big outs I believe so I'm fortunate there). I'm 598 at the moment and I think i'll be happy with top 500 as its getting harder and harder to make up places now.

    With Tedesco gone I can bring in Mitchell who was sitting in the NPRs and this would preserve my last trade. If I use the trade I couldn't cover an injured half for example as I have no 3rd half.

    On the other hand, Mitchells shithouse as winger, so I could use it to bring in Kenny-Dowell to give the backline a boost in Teddys absence and just hope like hell there are no more injuries.

    Last I saw was a clip on 360 last night with Bellamy saying he may or may not, depending on game situations. He referred to back in 2013 or whenever it was when they rested him and Cronk (I think) and they fell away after that. He doesn't get my C this week, which means bitch don't get da D either Very Happy
