    I will have 20 going into next round if I make 2 this week, which I probably will.

    Thanks mate.

    It's worth a watch for anyone that's interested. Certainly puts a few things in perspective!

And yes I know that James doesn't play 12 but I'm thinking end game here and I think he's less likely for origin than Vaughan. That way next week I can go Kaufusi to Graham for roughly the same cash due to their expected price drops. Then Fai to replace CHN and Gallen to replace McGuire and it's looking pretty good. Please someone tell me I'm doing the right thing!?!?

    Can you not just go Kaufusi to James this week? I would hold ese ese for his round 12 points. Then CHN to Graham next week?

    I have 22 trades after making two this week.

    Will probably make 3 next week.

    I still have Trbo on the pine this week. Punted Norman for SJ and Idris for FUI.

    The Hunt news is interesting. I'm almost certain he could play if it was a must win situation. Would you play Niko over Frawley? Niko against the Tigers sounds quite juicy, there's bound to be some broken play TB's in there. Frawley against the Roosters, not sure what to expect, could be a disaster if Mbye keeps doing all the kicking?

    Can somebody please tell me what to do with my team? I know I need BYE players for R12, not sure sure who exactly to trade out.

    Smith - Brailey
    Graham, Vaughan, Kaufisi - Hoare
    Surgess, JDB, Crichton, Elliot , ET, CHN
    SJ, Niko - Frawley, Field
    SMats, Cotric - Idris, Olam (NPR)
    Tedesco, Slater, RTS - Hayne, Edwards

    CHN will be a trade for me next week I think. Idris - Fui this week, what other options could I do? FKaufusi - Brown?

    Please and thank you!!

    24 trades left, $345K ITB

    I'm probably not the right person to ask.....I've only saved 1 unfortunately and I think that was only because lockout caught me out whilst I was changing a nappy! I'll also be max trading to Rd 12 but then I will be pretty set with minimal trades planned through the byes, barring injury of course. Will be limping home but with a strong team and hopefully I can hang on to a half decent finish. It's been a rough year.

    Last year I saved a few trades and then traded hard through the byes but ended up with 23 or 24 mediocre bye friendly players coming out and then got swamped by the stronger teams on the run in.

    Good team with so many trades and cash, bloody hell! I definitely agree with Idris to Fui and Kaufusi to Brown, or maybe Gal?

    Are the Buy/Sell numbers correct on the fantasy site? It says 2500 people have bought Hayne this week. what?

    13 people have sold Fuimaiono ? ha ha ha (obviously not serious players)

    EDIT: maybe those numbers refer to pre rnd 10. I'm not sure.

    Yeah mate, your strategy this year is what I did last year and this year. Just trade. Finished 24th or something but had the usual forwards but had a gun back five to finish. Probably only had 4 trades left at round 19 but only needed 1 or 2 for injuries. Other trades used were purely for the eliminator to ensure wins by trading in the same player as opposition had left.

    However, I think this year this strategy will be screwed because I have a feeling there will be a lot more injuries this year and I can see myself limping home. Thinking I will just need to hold guys in my team through the byes. Picking up Mansour and Rapana soon may become the priority for me. Think with the way TB's are being given out and how eager Mansour will be I can see him gunning it.

    20 after 2 trades this week. I'm feeling pretty good. I have the bye trades in my head and at a rough guess will be close to final team with about 4 trades left

    Jesus Christ you are a serious contender with that sort of ammo.

    I have 25 but Surgess and Fui are coming in so there's 23 left.

    The best thing about Bunt not playing this week is if Niko only plays low minutes and scores single digits he will not lose much money and can be flicked Rd 13

    And with bronx missing origin players in rnd 12, it may see Niko play a few more mins anyway with Macca staying on the field at the same time.

    That's it, pretty much a free player for next week, and if he pulls a decent score off the bench, it's a bonus.
