Good point, thanks for the heads up. Actually trade or no trade, I'm still going to have that same issue. Something to thing about. I guess worst case is I cop an AE.

If you keep slater and bring in vaughan for wallace instead then next round your halves would be johnson and munster (via walker dpp) and your back three RTS, slater, hayne - assuming those boys backup from origin!

15 pre trades. Will use all three.

15

Make sense to cash out Cotric and Slater for Laybutt and Scott if it means I have money for gun 17?

Understand the logic of Slater out, wrestling with it myself.  Who are your back 3 in the run home?

At this point I'll hold Cotric for the season.

11 trades, will use all 3.

Atm it would be Munster RTS next week Edwards. Could go Teddy Rapana etc probably for RTS

At the current moment I'm looking at 14 for the round ahead but only 15 for the next round. If you've got lots of bye friendly players you'd probably be in a similar situation right?

RTS probably worth keeping but I know you've been looking at moving him on.  Can't find it in me to sell Slater but I don't know why.  It's the sensible thing to do.

Great suggestion. I hadn't considered the Walker/Munster DPP advantage. The only thing is though it made lots of sense to bring in Norman.

I've tentatively locked in a Wallace - FKaufusi trade (cheaper and plays more byes than Vaughan) but apart from moving on Slater and/or Hayne, I'm having trouble seeing better options. With the Kaufusi trade I'll only have 12 playing.

Thanks heaps for the advice so far.

Team is
McCullough McInnes
Brown Wallace Graham Leota
JDB Gallen Surgess Crichton Lolo Elliot
Johnson C.Walker J.Field F.Brown
Cotric SMat Fuimaono J.Folau
Slater RTS Munster Hayne Burns

Need to figure out final CTR and WFB Only see 3 staying atm

Hayne 18th man (Suli Sione Fui)
Munster RTS (Cotric Semi Abbey)

what type of scores are people aiming for this round?
i've got a projected score of 539 from 11

Yes and no mate.  15 this round and 17 next round, I only have Semi from the Eels.  Will need to do some sideways trading to get 17 in 18/19 though.

Does anyone know much about Scott - Decent cashout for Slater? Will he likely score 10 points?

616 from 15, your average is better.  Laybutt or another cash out in there or pretty strong?  My 15 aren't the strongest.

If I cash out Graham then my 2 trades next week would be Hayne to Edwards and Kelly to Turbo. Or I could do Hayne to Edwards and Hampton to Norman or Cleary. I guess I would also need to factor in whether I want to keep CWalker after round 18. Am I on the right track people?

Umm he scored 56pts in the one game he played before getting injured

Fun fact.

Jamal Fogerty left the Eels this week. But it was Jamal Fogarty who joined the Titans.

Apparently over at the Gold Coast, they don't like the letter 'e'
