    Heeey everyone,
    Finalised my trades with McGuire and Hampton out, A.Reynolds and Spina in.
    Does everyone think this is the right move? I need funding for a good half desperately and can't afford it any other way.
    My team for this round be

    C. Smith, (A. McCullough)
    A. Fifita, J. Graham
    E. Whitehead, P. Gallen, S. Mannering, (C. Harawira Naera) (S. Stone)
    S. Johnson, A. Reynolds
    J. Leilua, N. Cotric
    J. Tedesco, R. Tuivasa Sheck, K. Ponga, (J. Hayne)

    Sound ok?

    Reynolds is a gun, but the amount of injuries he gets worries me. If he stays fit, he's close to the best half in the game IMO.

    I agree, he is amazing when he gets going.
    I wanted to get pierce but not enough money and he might play origin, along with Reynolds I guess.
    I could get Norman or walker instead?

    The dragons are going to miss Widop the next little while, he's been outstanding.
    Their attacking game might suffer a bit

    Pearce will be playing origin. I'm looking at Walker or SJ myself. Already have Norman.

    CHN or Stone for last spot on bench.

    Feel like this is a flip of the coin situation. Going on Tuesdays form, either way ill lose.

    I'm trying to decide which one to bring in. Yep, still possibly going to trade CHN if he starts.

    Cheers, I already have SJ. I think I might stick with Reynolds, I like him better than walker.

    Is the though of bring in Stone for Whitehead a bit crazy. Solid cash grab, will give me the funds to upgrade Lamb to Reynolds next week. Seems like Stone has the inside running over Yates, could play 80min regularly until Buher returns.

    Does the combination of Stone and Reynolds give me more points and potential earnings with Stone, thatn the combo of Whitehead and Lamb.

    i'd bit the bullet and give up on Jbrom for JGraham using all that cash in the war chest. His form is terrible without signs of turning it around yet

    I would go CHN, I don't think stone will get another 50 (although I really hope he does as I have him). If CHN is starting, he is probably the safer option.

    as long as CHN is in the 17 then i'd put the R on him no matter what. Smashing through the holes of tired forwards is what he does best.

    I stopped trusting any knights players. Nothing but disappointment

    If you got Whitehead not long ago, it's a bit silly getting rid of him IMO. pm88 mentioned yesterday Pauli Pauli not far away, and what's the go with Wardle?

    If you have Stone or Yates still then cool, they are holds and should make another 40-60K, but not worth two trades if you don't have them.

    Also heard a commentator on the weekend say something about Gallen not playing Origin is not a sure thing (there are some "whispers doing the rounds" or something along those lines).

    Has anyone heard anything - To be fair I think Gallen's form has been outstanding and he would deserve being picked for NSW. I wonder if Daley can convince him to go round 1 more year?

    Anyway, my 13 for NSW would be Jake Trobjevic (think he is just ahead of JDB and in much better form than Merrin, but we will see).
