Have you projected Merrin's price rises moving forward based on an assumed average scoring per week? I'd be interested to know how is value might track.
That will determine whether he is a buy now, or after 15 when he will have e finished his Bye's. I.e. does he become unaffordable over the next 2 rounds or not...
Haha I'm very conservative by nature, so unlikely to pull through. I think Munster will definitely come in for Niko. And I'm leaning more towards Nofo as a POD with a slightly more useful bye calendar.Rippin and Tearin wrote:
It's a sign - but in all seriousness those could be two pretty solid moves! POD in Rapana is extra nice!!

May bring him in for Hayne as he has no usefulness if missing bye weeks due to origin.

If he scores 55 he goes up near 30k with a BE of 16 and will trend upwards. It's now or never

You can have Fifita and Taumalolo while still having McInnes. Infact most people will do that. Replacing McInnes would give you a 6th 2rf or 3rd frf. You are using the number 1 frf and the number 1 2rf when working out averages as if thats what your choice is. ATM it would be McInnes or Taupau or JTurbo. All 3 have similar averages but running McInnes gives you insurance incase Smith cops a one week injury/suspension

Im really interested in some evidence based stuff on Merrin too. I recall he started the year crap last year too, then picked it up, did he close out well last year?
And this year, Minutes are down a bit, but have been higher in his last 3 games. Are they more of a reflection of what's to come? And with Cartwright gone? Wallace gone, CHN not looking like a solid 80minute guy, and JFH with his hamstring, could this mean bigger minutes for Merrin?
Finally, is his uptick in fantasy form got anything to do with Origin do you think? Will his motivation die off a bit now? or is he better than that?
A lot of things pointing to him being a great buy, but some question marks too!!
Would love to know what people think!

I'm keeping for the time being. Holding his value (just) without really doing anything at all. I'm hoping he can get some attacking plays when the Warriors make their run over the Origin period.

18 trades but only 18K. Got burnt last week and not real bye friendly plus a lot of conerns with depth with the likes of Graham Milf etc. Pretty gun team though. The kicker is, trading out Fifita isn't an option. Trying to upgrade Niko probably the best bet for this week. Thinking maybe cashout Kelly then Niko to Munster? Can anyone see anything else worthwhile? It's just not a bye friendly team even though a lot of it looks pretty set up.

Seriously considering turning him into Merrin while he's still affordable.

True that man. I may give him til round 15 perhaps, if he sits around 35-40 for another two weeks, I think it's time to punt him. Just not the gun he was last year.
