    Hey guys my initial trade thoughts are this: Elgey to Fogarty and Kelly to Smat. Leaves my team looking like this with 503k and 20 trades in the bank. Anyone have any other suggestions?

    Smith McInnes
    McGuire FKaufusi Ese ese Yates
    JDB Surgess Crichton Aubusson CHN Winterstein
    SJ Nikorima Hampton Fogarty
    Smat BJ Idris Fuimaono
    RTS Slater Cotric Suli Phythian

    Desperately in need of a gun half so I'll either bring in Munster or C.Walker next week for Cotric most likely. May ditch Aubusson for Gallen or Tolo too. Anyone else see anything I'm not seeing?

    If you want to bring in a gun half do it now via Elgey and save youself a trade, you have a heap of cash in the bank to do it with.

    If you want to bring in a gun half upgrade Elgey now instead of cashing him out, you'll save yourself a trade.

    915 after updates, ranked 5205. Goal is to be inside 5000 this year. Pretty happy with that considering its my first year playing seriously.

    Only the one trade this week, BJ in, Kelly out. Leaves me with 69k ITB and 21 trades remaining.

    (C)S9
    Mcguire, Graham, FKaufusi
    Whitehead, JDB, Surgess, Stone, CHN, Crichton
    Norman, KNiko
    BJ, Cotric
    Ponga, Slater, RTS

    Suddenly have options a plenty if CHN and Yates play as named in team lists, and Adam Reynolds indeed returns as expected.

    No urgent need to trade this week. There are some moves I could make but I think it might be a good week to hold.

    Didn't have a great week (scored 850) but the problems I had appear as though they are rectified this week - A Reynolds was out, missed the CHN news so he was in NPRs, SMAT played in halves, Brailey and Cotric didn't contribute as you would hope (but don't need to play them this week)..

    Dude with that much money bring some guns into your team. Elgey - Munster + Kelly - Gun CTR/WFB by shifting Cotric to CTR

    Anyone think Folau is worth a shout for a CTR cash out for Kelly? Named 18th man this week and might cover Jennings over origin

    I too think I am in the hold camp. I could bring in another gun (Probably Norman) but as it's rep round next week, just seems like a good time to hold while players get over their injuries etc etc.

    Trading out McInnes for Pritchard this week Shocked
    this is part of my Bye round prep.

    I was going to bring Kaysa in for the Byes closer to round 12, but with the way he's been scoring I rather take the cash now, and use him as a cow.

    McInnes has been scoring below expectation, he would have scored another below 50 score if it wasn't for the extra golden point mins

    Munster and CWalker both have high BEs this week so wouldn't it make more sense to wait a week? Otherwise I will burn through most of my cash and I still need to bring in Graham etc asap. Fogarty also has DPP so frees up cash from that waste of space Elgey so I can bring in both Walker and Munster or one of them and Norman in the next 2 weeks. I dunno,maybe that's just me

    need to cash out Elgey (don't have enough bank to upgrade him) - Field or Brown the better option?

    Wait a week if you want, but Munster is pretty consistent. With that much cash though, just focus on bringing in a few guns, especially those that play round 12 for the time being. Dont mess around with half assed trades like bringing in Smat. Great if you started the year with him, but there is no value in bringing him in now.

    Any ideas boys. I need to get rid of Jacks but there are no viable options. I could upgrade him to Josh Reynolds but not sure. 15k in the bank & 23 trades left. It feels like I should make no trades but worried Jacks will bleed cash. Hopefully he isn't in the 17.

    Smith, Cook
    Fifita, McGuire, Wallace, F. Kaufusi
    JDB, Surgess, Crichton, Hess, CHN, F. Winterstein
    SJ, Lamb, Jacks, Field
    Talakai, Idris, Cotric, B. Kelly
    RTS, Slater, Ponga, R. Jennings, Abbey

    Cheers.

    Can you wait a week? Pritchard might get called into the Rep team so might be worth waiting a week in case he gets squashed in a Surgess tackle or something lol

    I mean you don't make trades thinking about injuries obviously, but you would be kicking yourself if something happens. Flip side of that though is nothing happens and you have a R12 player + saved some cash Smile

    At this stage I'm hoping to hold him til after round 12, probably won't need to be in my 17 until then, so whether he scores well or not before then is a bit two fold - if he scores well I get his cash but not his points.

    Yeah.. Nah. Like you say it looks like you need to bring in another gun HLF, as do I. Don't bring in JRey IMO. Could also look at trading a CTR out and start building some cash.

    Im with Finch mate. Unless you have an absolute need to have that much cash on the bench then I would be spending it to upgrade as well. I kinda think of it in this way, for every $10k you have on the sidelines thats roughly 1 point. So $500k is the equivalent of 50 points sitting on the bench. Given the whole game as about maximising the number of points you score then you kinda wanna minimise the amount of unused cash. Obviously there are times when you need to build up a balance in order to do planned upgrades, but $500k given the trades you are suggesting sounds a little much.
