Barnett -> Surgess will be an easy trade for me if he is injured.
Also thinking Sione -> Leilua might be on the cards, but happy to give SMat another chance if he makes it back to the second row.

You're not the only one. As long as he scores more than Sironen though it's a win in my books

Unfortunately it's not about where he starts it's where he's moved to mid match.

Last year they had Robbie Rochow to move to centre or prop or wing I think at one stage. Now this year it's Sione

Next week I can get Tolo for Smat then have enough to upgrade Talakai to BJ
Then the week after Kbrom to Jbrom and I'll have cash left over

This week was the first time Lamb scored below 40. When he starts getting more crap scores I can see myself shifting Guth to HLF's and bringing Hayne back to pocket some cash but for now he's got some money to make.
The Knights have a tough run coming up though. Sharks who humiliated them last year, Bulldogs who can be good or bad and the Chooks who are carving up now.

Cheers MF. Will keep an eye on BJ as well, dumped Sione last night for Vaughan with the intent to rely on Cotric until i find a solid centre to go with Tturbo whose already there.

First day with Norman and I would like to apologise in advance.

That moment when you've reserved Brailey and Seggy's on the 19-man bench.

To be honest I don't even know if BJ would be the best choice.

I just want to get gun backs because this year has been awful I want set and forget

At the moment I have Dwalker hen I pair him with either Cotric, Kelly or Talakai whoever is the flavour of the day. Then my wingers I have Slater, TomT and RTS.

I think BJ is a gun that is come down cheaply so I want to get him once he's in. To be honest I should look at moving Tommy and try to get Teddy.

Ahh it's all too much this early in the morning

When you see @Archer new avatar

Anyone know why James Tamou only played 45 minutes, was he injured?

Funny how your mind starts looking at potential trades... we're not even halfway the round, I'm sure there will be some more curveballs thrown our way this weekend.

I'll probably hang onto Hingano for a few weeks... Unless a good cheap half option comes along earlier.

Matt wright has slipped into the 19 man squad. Is he there as cover for an injury or is there a chance he takes Kellys spot?

I suppose given manly won last week its unlikely they will change the lineup other than the suspended players returning

Can only be good news for Johnson. Can't wait till all my cashies peak so I can finally trade in some GUNS. Have sacrificed the points early in chasing the cashies. Just have to think about the long game plan rather then early season scores.

Some penrith radio bloke on twitter reckons the hairline fracture reports are untrue and that cartright very nearly played last night. Take it for what you will

I heard he has been seen practicing his offloading skills.

Was a 50/50 call. If I didn't have other fires to put out I would have bought him in for the potential points this week verses the price difference next week.

You got a 40 out of it in a round where there are some dismal scores.

Someone mentioned Barnett's injury so Sione will definitely go back to the pack & Yates should get an extended run. The Knights will bounce back mind you they have the Sharks away next week.

That score is ahead of the majority. I am 134/5 and has seen a lot worse than me.

Excellent, assuming no Captain yet?
