Right time to trade out CHN? Want to turn him to Gallen

Regarding CHN, Cartwright failed to finish training today with his recurring ankle injury (though is meant to still play).
So there is always that chance CHN gets a starting spot again or get decent minutes should it continue to play up

Perret - Fai
Lamb - Munster

next week I will dump Idris for Frawley

Cartwright is in the halves though so even if that were the case nothing would change in the forwards

Who is this Fai I see keep popping up

Do I go Munster or turbo? Or even Hayne?

I just read a comment on a Cowboys forum. They reckon Green might be using a smokescreen & make a last minute change moving Coote into the halves & bringing in Ponga at f/b. Lucky that the Cowboys play the first game so we will know for sure.
If this doesn't eventuate I would get Munster out of those 3 based on better bye coverage.

Been on donkeys squads lists for a while, in the top 17 this week, McGuire bound for origin so could get game time, bottom dollar DPP

Which means we are likely to spend 60min behind, only to catch up right at the end and force it into extra time because god knows why but the Knights seem to give us a fright recently. 

You were 33% of our points last year.

Boogie team confirmed.

CHN will still make money, even off the bench. Low BE means hold it for a week.

Not sure if this has been done yet, but @Honeysett , you'll like the comment I saw on another forum today:
Regarding SKD, it seems like players are doing anything now to get out of their Knights contracts!

I notice Sironen named to start.

Was he any chance at being disciplined over his door-smash in the pub incident - or is that just going to go away quietly?

Disciplinary actions aside, he probably couldn't believe his luck when all of the drug stories broke, his story barely got a look in and become second rate news real quick.

This week I am doing the super-sideways trades of:

Wallace -> Brown
DCE -> Munster

So sideways. Deal with it

WON-DER-FUL!!

I think this was spoken about way back in rd 1, but why did Field go down to $128K after his woeful score?

Isn't $134K the base?

I may end up really needing that $6K

Looks good. Thats called going with your gut.

failhub error, that can't now be fixed

Ok, stupid question time. I feel like I should know this.

How do the bye rounds affect origin players? I'm assuming those selected skip round 12 because they'll be at origin camp. Some will backup round 13. Are they also definitely out for rounds 15 and 18?

I'm trying to scrap together a team for the byes. At the moment I have 9 playing round 12 and only 14k cash! I'm coming 141 overall so want to get a semi decent team together over the bye rounds.

Yep. Thats my understanding. Out R12, poss rested for R13. Repeat for R15/16 and 18/19.

As I posted last night, I'm in similar pain with numbers (just without the 141 ranking)

Thanks mate, but fuck that licks balls.

Oh well. 20mins this weekend and he'll score a double and skyrocket in price, thus earning him a start in place of Mann who will butcher another game. Its all good.

If Gray pushes Talakai out, is it worth holding him out for the bye rounds?
