I actually would rather Pearce instead of Cleary (cheaper as well, look at his KMs!!!)
But origin is kind of a deal breaker

Rashes only ever go away when correctly treated. My last bout of crabs lasted exactly 72hrs. Then I did the right thing and passed them to someone else.

Now, not that I'm a professionally trained doctor but I lived with Jayant Patel so basically am the next best thing. I can tell you right now for a proper diagnosis the best thing is to take a picture, post it on the internet and ask for peoples responses. You will find that the 3rd (and pay attention, because this is very specific) response is the right one. 

When I last did this the expert told me that the best cure for my pink eyes was apple cider vinegar mixed with lighter fluid to treat my problem. Worked a treat.

Thorough and concise, I'll hold on the pic though!

Ok, tbf, I'll not look at foot fetishes or midget porn but pretty much anything else is fair game!

HIT ME UP!

Hey mate what are your opinions on these trades.
Elgey > fogerty  and Moga > Bodene
Would allow me to get smat into my centres which currentely stink. I'm 2k short of going moga > bodene straight swap and I can't see any other way to fund the bodene trade. Cheers.

Is buhrer to bodene side ways should score similar plus a Hess to whitehead could profit me enough to get a gun half which I'm lacking probably my weakest position

Buhrer looks a keeper to me mate

How good are you talking fishy? I think JBrom will easily get back to 55+avg and be the premier prop in the game but he needs a little time. He's a typical Kiwi, starts average, goes hard through the middle but then peaks too early! Lol.

Other options that are worth a look (but not on that level) include AFB, Glasby, Woods (depending on anything changing with the new coach, even then due to SOO I'd be a little hesitant) Taupau and Graham. Graham is going to bottom out nicely in a few weeks.

Would love some feedback on my team guys....

Smith, Brailey
JBromwich, McGuire, Wallace, Yates
Debelin, Gallen, Surgess, Hess, FKafusi, CHN (that panthers guy)
Norman, Jacks, Elgey, Field
Kelly, talakai, idris, moga
RTS, slater, French , cotric, ponga

Most STI's are.

For anyone that is playing overall. I'd love to have him (and do in ultimate) but he just ain't worth it considering he'll miss like 5 games in 6 weeks.

Think I'll stay with these trades until Mearcats tells me it's rash.
Pthing gone, Rennings to WFB, Aubs to CTR and Penrith cheap hardware guy into 2RF. (I make a cool thousand doing that)
Then Rennings to Slater.
Effectively Slater replaces a red dot. Possible future red dot in 2RF, but he has more prospects than Pthing.
And I was always aiming to get Aubs:love: into CTR. That's done now.

Hayne to CHN via Sione leaves me $10k short of Cleary. This game just keeps fucking with my emotions

So I'm pretty set on this first trade:
Lamb out - Slater in via Gutherson
My second trade is either:
(a) Abbey out - CHN in via Cotric via Sione (leaves 95k bank) or
(b) Winterstein out - CHN in (leaves 176k bank but Sione still in 2fr) or
(c) Sione out - CHN in (leaves 264k bank but Sione still in 2fr)

(a) allows me to shift Sione to ctr but hardly any cash for my Brailey upgrade
(b) & (c) my ctrs are still cheap & nasty but results in more cash for my Brailey upgrade

Which option do you like. Cheers.

Yes and yes mate. Like it. Elgey I covered in my response to Spectre and Moga to Dreamers. I like these trades. 

Statistically you'll lose nothing barring a few poetential price rises (assuming you're not playing Elgey in you 17). Moga 25avg p/w out for Bodene 35avg p/w in. That +10 points per week already. And we know that 35 isn't Bodene's TRUE average. Elgey would need to make another 100k on top of his price currently in 6 weeks to make that even. Not gonna happen.

Great trades.

What's will this leave you cash wise? Thinking ahead for your Brailey ext strategy...

Hang on to Buhrer for sure mate. Make Hess Bodene next week (if he ain't great off the bench) and then wait and see with Whitehead.

The only player I'd sell is Winterstein. But if his BE is anything below 20 I'd hold on him too

I'd ditch Hoare if it's possible

How good am I looking for? This stage better than Sue. Might just trade in Jbrom in a fortnight

Yeah, Buhrer's an 80 minute 2RF that pumped out a 66 the other week. I'm not trading him.

I am loathe to say this but I'm ok with it. Seriously, everytime I see the love emoji after Aubbs i wanna spew a little in my mouth but I think I'm coming around. Roosters seem to have found a replacement mister fixit meaning Aubbs can do what he does best which is crank out a middle of the road score consistently. Nothing more you can ask for.

I'm more concerned that SMat has become 2017's Black Widdow.

Pithing gone is easy obvs. Corey Warea Relatedtoya Harawira Naera Whateva could be a trap, sure, but who cares? Use him as a cashout, then he stays on your bench for the rest of the season. You need to save a trade or two throughout the season to make up for that but I think it's ok.
