    Who will be some cash cows to get in 2RF for round 12, i'm expecting George Fai with Thaiday, Gillett and McGuire all on Origin duty.

    Kind of need to trade out F Winterstein asap so might have to do a risky anticipatory trade 1 round earlier than I would like.

    Early disagosis is grate two medial ligament.  4 weeks BA guessed but will wait for scans obviously.

    for me thats enough to warrant a trade to probably c walker given i was going to rely on norman over those bye rounds and cant really cover him anyway.

    4 weeks is 11/12/13/14
    I can cover 11 and 14 with Frawley but it's disappointing to lose a top bye option this close. I'll probably still hold and look to strength the rest of my team as no one else is really standing out

    Looks like it. Eels not having their first bye until round 16 pretty much is the reason he probably has to go. If Eels had the 12 and 15 off like Manly, it's a definite hold but their bye schedule in this instance couldn't be worse.

    Hope the Eels give Fogetry a run, a 138k cash out would be nice. Probably going to be Robson though.

    After 2 weeks of Cook to McInnes, I reversed my trade just before the Dragons game and went Slater to Norman due to the bye cover. It shits me that I didn't go with my gut and took the advice of others.

    Not sure where to go now, it's hard to trade someone back out after owning them for 3 days.

    I'd imagine French is back next week & will slot into f/b so Gutherson will move to the halves & Will Smith will retain his place. Gutherson will be gold while Norman is out. That early round when Norman didn't play when he did his hammy, Gutherson went large.

    I'm glad this week I decided to ignore my crap backs & instead get in Gallen & Elliot because I was originally going to buy T-Trbo & Hayne.

    Ouch on both counts man.

    I'm worried if Norman is out for 4 weeks, their bye is round 16. I don't see him coming back until round 17. They won't play him 15 from a knee injury when the bye is the next week.

    I'm thinking about replacing Norman with Guth.

    Hopefully. He came off with a concussion with 15 to go and he looked pretty out of it but hey Sione always backs up so Guth should be good.

    trades are gunna be crap next week, Kaufusi needs to go but i don't have any DPPs so i'll prolly have to go to Graham a week early, and then from there i need to figure out if i trade CHN to Fui and be forced to start 2 of Niko, Frawley and LAmb, or trade Norman to some-one and miss out on the cash cow.

    Need to wait for what's the injury. Who knows yet. He may be back in two weeks (I cross fingers)

    If it wasn't for SMat and Cotric today I'd have been in a bit of strife, these guys pulled me through for a 907 pre updates.  

    As a result, I've managed to climb up the rankings by 24 spots to be currently ranked 10th and unbelievably happy to have finally made it inside the top 10.

    Onwards and upwards I say!

    Thats brilliant Mango. WD
