Elgey out. JWH to a big gun

First time I have posted my team up in a while.

Not sure what my next move should be, any ideas? Thinking of trading Yates/ET out, either for Graham or a 2RF gun.

Smith, Brailey
Vaughan, FKafusi - Yates, Hoare
JDB, Surgess, Crichton - ET, CHN, Sironen
SJ, Jacks - Frawley, Field
Sione M, Cotric - Idris, Kelly
Tedesco, RTS, Slater - Hayne,

$346K in the Kitty, 28 trades left.

Ranked around 620.

Have penciled in Kelly - BJ + ET - Graham. Not sure I want to sell ET though. This leaves me with $100K exactly.

Thanks!!!

Sironen out, bring in BJ maybe?

Or Elgey out, that's a good one.

Solid.  Happy to keep running with Lamb mate?  Thinking of leaving him for another week myself.

I was going to go Lamb to Frawley but still will if by some chance he goes straight into the starting 13. I'm not convinced with Hampton so there's really no one else that's viable so happy to hold Lamb. These trades actually leave me with enough cash to go Lamb to Milford next week.

Same, not sold on hampton either especially him moving positions after one week.  I'll probably play Jacks over Lamb if we find out that Munster is no chance before Friday arvo.  Lamb due a meatie though, hopefully. Same also though, if Frawley someone manages teh number 7 slot, that's a different story.

he is moving positions because JT is injured an they don't have any half options other than blooding a youngster, plus Hamptons main position is half

cheers mate, I'm inclined to keep JWH for R12, plus i'm expecting him to lift without Napa, loads of errors last week

As I posted just before though, my concern is JT will only be out a week or two IMO so what happens then?  Leary looked decent and better than Hampton at hooker so once JT is back I think Hampton will go straight back to the bench, and then Granville not far away anyway.

Possible trades for me.
Sironen and Guth to Crichton and Arey/DCE

If I want to upgrade Guth its either Sironen - Crichton or maybe Yates - Leary.
Leary is a pretty short term option though.

Reluctant to let him go with his recent form uptick mate, have looked at that mind

I can go Yates - Crichton LG - Hampton but eats my funds for Milf next week

Hey guys, thought id get some advice.

30 trades left and 56k

Smith, Brailey
Fifita, Vaughan, Kaufusi, Musgrove
McGuire, ET, KBrom, Siro, Yates, CHN
Norman, Lamb, Jacks, Elgey
SMat, Idris, Kelly, Suli
Turbo, RTS, Cotric, Hayne, Abbey

Thinking of building some cash so Leary is on my radar. Musgrove to Crichton is tempting aswell.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

You look to be a gun short in the 2RF, arguably the backs as well eg Tedesco/Walker.

So Brailey back to 80 is putting me in two minds about what trades to make. Upgrade him to a gun HOK or use his extended run to get a gun HLF in. Decisions, decisions

I can tell you where to go if you'd like, bloody showoff.

I think that chat about Milf is a great call. Broncs have had by far and away the toughest opening opposition in the comp in the first 6 rounds (5 of the 6 genuine premiership contenders). Thus his scores have not been great. Not to mention he shares the field with another highly rated half who demands to get his hands on the ball as much as him.

As we know he will be the dominant half for the next 6 rounds (at least) before Hunt's return and with now far easier games against the Titans, Rabbits, Panthers, Sea Eagles, Tigers, Warriors as his next six, he will surely have more explosive attacking scores.

Considering the majority of his stats come from attacking plays (tackle breaks, line breaks, line break assists) as opposed to defensive stats (tackles, kick metres) this upcoming opposition (most with some pretty flimsy defense) has him primed for a considerable increase in scores.

Hmm,
So... FR:
According to Page 1 Felise has a BE 26, standing to make ~10K at a score of around 40 (most likely) or ~20k this week, if he gets another big game and hits 50. Not a small amount, but not game breaking either if you miss out on it. I'm guessing you don't view him as a long term keeper and with some uncertainty around what his minutes might be in a full strength pack you could consider upgrading him so that you can hang on to JWH. The biggest issue is finding a decent upgrade in the FR. Would probably require you taking a punt on someone like Tolman or Brown who whilst nice on bye's are anything but a sure thing.

Halves:
Similar story here with Jacks, likely going to want to get rid of him sometime in the near future and you've got Lamb as well. With Walker it means you've got the potential to get rid of any WFB/CTR(using Cotric DPP) but the issue with that is shifting him down is that it still leaves you with running whoever you bring in + one of Lamb/Jacks/LG.  I dunno, I'm half tempted to suggest giving up on SMat, Moving Cotric up to Ctr to bring in your choice of WFB gambles (GGM? Full YOLO and Ponga? I dunno, it's a bit shit, pretty much all of the guys I'm looking at here are risky) and using all of the funds to Trade Lamb/Jacks to a keeper?

Fark, I've just spewed out the stuff above as i looked through prices and BE's and think i left feeling more confused for you than when i started.

Is anyone else trading gutho out?
