    I love Frawley as a player, but fantasy wise he's still a no go zone for me.

    Feel free to trade out Hess... I for one are keeping him in my team, he might have a few low scoring rounds, but we've all seen what he's capable of.

    I'm holding onto CHN as well, he can be my sleeper cash cow.

    Same here mate. Didn't get Frawley due to being a bench player. I'm keeping Hess as he's a monster bully & I love how he plays. He may cruize along but all he needs is a couple of big plays & the points come rolling in. CHN with a minus b/e can just sit in my npr's until he gets a playing opportunity. I will get K-Nik this week but my decision is whether to get rid of Lamb or Jacks. I might actually keep Lamb & hope he improves his defense because the only thing stopping him scoring in the 40's are his missed tackles.

    Mate, keep on posting.

    With round 12 so close you may as well keep Gutherson but it depends on who you are thinking of getting in. If selling Gutherson results in a great upgrade target like Cody Walker or Leilua then I would sell Gutherson.

    @Rippin and Tearin Don't stop posting your ideas, mate. Just because you're new to this doesn't mean you don't have a valid opinion. Sometimes it takes the fresh eyes and ideas to see the forest from the trees.

    I'd go Jacks mate. I'm deciding whether to get KNik for Elgey or Lamb, Elgey is the obvious choice cause I really like Lamb for some reason and yeah a 40 and 45 in his first two weeks so he's capable of solid scores. Elgey to Lamb requires an extra trade but Elgey not gonna do any favours anyway so, might as well keep Lamb and see what he can do.

    No Thursday night games sucks.

    Makes my Thursdays at work so uneventful.

    Just looked over my trades so far.

    Rd1.
    Jbrom to Wallace
    Ma'U to JDB

    Rd2
    Hayne to Abbey
    ET to McGuire

    Rd3
    Siro to Ponga

    Rd4
    Smat to CHN
    Lamb to Cwalker

    Rd5
    Kbrom to TMay
    Brailey to Mcinnes

    Rd6
    Elgy to Hampton
    Guth to Nofo

    Rd7
    Jacks to Field
    Yates to Whitehead

    Cant say im entirely unhappy with them. Just seems like poor planning from the start and players not performing as expected immediately after purchase (im looking at you Mcinnes).

    Sitting at 4000 odd at the moment.

    Thanks mate. Was think of going to Gutho to Kniko to bank some cash for next week, but not completely sold on that idea. Cant go to Cody Walker or BJ.

    I was going to keep R.Jennings for the byes but with Hunt and Gray back soon, he may be out of the side before that. He's been pretty ordinary to be honest.

    Reckon it's worth trading him to Hayne to avoid another red dot even though he's not bye friendly?

    I think see how Hayne goes first. I traded him out for Ponga but will have no hesitation if gets back to some form. Wouldn't jump on him without seeing a game or 2 though.

    no need to stop posting, input is appreciated when questions are asked, everyones got their own opinions and thoughts, no-one here truly knows what will happen moving forward, that's the nature of the game, it's just when people are asking for advice i think it's important to be sure to seperate opinion from fact and give them what they need to form their own opinion, for example -

    Your opinion is that Hess is more reliant on attacking stats than you're be comfortable with and you're concern with him is that they will dry up and his scores will drop, and that's certainly a valid opinion, and one worth voicing to some-one who's asking, but when you state that he's got '20 points in 80 minutes' in him, some-one might read that and go 'yuck, i don't want 20 points stinking up my 2RF' and put a red line straight through him, whereas that same person might read just your opinion, investigate further and go 'hmm, he hasn't gone scored below 40 points yet in 80 minutes yet and he's capable of some monster scores, i think i'll take that risk' or 'yeh you're right, that is a concern, i think i'll look elsewhere then'

    Guth scored 33 with no try. Add a LB TB try and it's near 50. I'm definitely holding

    We all give advice on here & sometimes after the fact the advice you have given turns out to be wrong. For example someone posted before round 7 they wanted to buy Hodgson & I said not to bring him in due to his injury. Hodgson then plays 80 mins, scores 72 against the Warriors with no signs that he was struggling with his injury. I hope the poster ignored my advice & went ahead with the Hodgson trade.

    Hope Graham sticks in the NRL, love watching him play.  Would be just what the Knights need.
    Totally agree! A strong forward with lots of running, leadership and hard work ethic is exactly what the Knights need.

    Is Milf a good enough option to consider as part of your final 17?
