Daifiti to Chee-Kam
Elgey to Gutherson
Other issues I need to sort out are Phythian (Guth can go there later, when a suitable opportunity presents) and potentially Nathan Brown, but prepared to let him play on for a bit. While the frf become clearer. Could be better to upgrade to a gun then cop a mid range cash cow.
Chee-Kam could slowly make 80k to 100k with an consistent average of 25+ and that is much better to Elgey will likely will do all season. The DPP with CTR-2RF is also super useful. Gutherson is a keeper with a DPP and a much better prospect than Daifiti.
To me the logic makes sense and these are value and not sideways trades. Am I wrong?
Not convinced about Wallace. It could be way simpler just to downgrade Daifiti to Wallace and make one trade and hold on to Phythian until I see a good option, but I leaning towards to above.
Another way of looking at this is
Dafiti to Gutherson (which is good makes sense)
and
Elgey to MCK (which is bad, very sideways if not backwards, Elgey should avg 25-35 and will back some cash. MCK will not play 80 at centre and could be benched next week out of the side a week after, no job security)
Whats your full team

Actually, Mole said Jennings would come in for Talakai
If he's wrong, they'll probably have to shut down the whole RLW operation
I used to love RLW in the mid 90s. Would buy it pretty much every week.
Its gone downhill a lot in the past decade or so, but still a bit sad to see it go.

Based on Moles ITK pronouncements I assume this was not a typo

Smith / Pritchard
N.Brown / Daifiti / Faufusi / Iapalli
Surgess / JDB / Moeroa / Mata'uita / Sironen / Yates
Norman / Moses / Elgey / Jacks
Walker / Talakai / Cotric / Kelly
Ruivasa-Sheck / Hayne / Holmes / Phythian / suli
if benched mck is a 2rf bench and would score around the same right. seems to have good backing by tigers faithful. I am not as positive about elgey. I reckon get rid off him now

Its a good side, With 2 top halves, Walker at centre, Holmes as 3rd WFB and a heap of Parra players already in your team i dont think you need Gutherson. I am guessing Suli is 5th WFB. Id just look at a DS trade this week maybe get a little cash ready in case you need to upgrade Brown. Ideally youd already have 1 keeper in that frontrow so because you dont id be working towards that early in the season, keep an eye out on some guns who will be underpriced soon.

That rumours being doing the rounds a few days. People saying it would be harsh on Talakai over one missed tackle. Moley probably just copying. Maybe it's true. We'll find out soon enough

Yeah same here. Being in Perth and back in the dark ages before this interwebby thing it was a beacon in the dark for League tragics over here.

Apparently it's for H. Hunt not Talakai as Hunt has failed the concussion protocals.

This team (short notice, just wanted to see what I could come up with):
McInnes (Brailey)
Wallace, Seumanufagai (Yates)
JBD, Thompson, Hoffman
Keary, Widdop (Jacks)
Mitchell, Moga (Talakai)
Tedesco, Gordon, Suli
17-25 all $138ks (Kelly, Cotric etc)
Would net you 1175 points or so in round 1 and you'd be about 350 points ahead of me with no reason to make any trades.

Moley surely wasn't wrong though. I mean. No. Never wrong. ALWAYS GOT THE GOOD NEWS FIRST. MOLEY. BELIEVE. IGNORE FAKE NEWS. SAD.

Jesse is going to a big trade in for a lot of people but he doesn't play that first big bye :-/
Whitehead on the other hand... gimme that sweet, sweet CTR/2RF for a SiMat switcheroo once Kelly matures!

Even if he doesn't get DPP - a few more scores of around 20 playing at centre and he'll be dirt cheap for when he goes back to the forwards. Will be very tempting

that's what I had my eye on, but if he gets cheap enough I'm sure everyone will be onto it

It will be when no one can trade him in because they are plugging the holes of their severely injury-depleted squads in the front row, halves and WFB and I am bringing in Whitehead first his first score of 85 back in 2RF and still have $500k left to play with and I also some rich guy on the street gives me a Ferrari for free and then I inherit a $20million from a long-lost rich relative that I never knew I had and also I become a wizard and I can fly.
