Johnson, Pearce,
Cotric, Nuff
RTS, Munster, Edwards

Considering running with 1 centre and 2 extra forwards as 17th an 18th man for an AE.

Potential upside of more consistent scoring from the AE gun forward than TTurbo/JRoberts/Gagai etc..

Downside - a Cotric Injury/Suspension would leave me needing to made a trade
If any of my Nuffs turn into non Nuffs (Hawkins/Scott/Laybutt etc) I'd likely get their score as an AE rather than the gun forward...

He's in my 17

Smith McInnes
JBrom Brown Musgrove Tualau
Surgess Crichton JDB ET Gallen Elliott
SJ AREy Laybutt Brown
Hoppa SMat Fui Scott
Ted Munster RTS Hayne Abbey  251k 8trades

Smith JDB and Ted a real kick in the nuts but Scott and Laybutt helps and I still think Tualau will play which only gives me 14. I could suck it up but I would rather get two more bodies in but with trades running out I really don't want to be trading out keepers. So I'm thinking:

Musgrove -> JGraham
Abbey -> Dedwards

Then round 19 cash out Elliott and get Fifita back for JBrom (or Brown, whoever is worse/injured) would be pretty much my final team. It's more depth than I was going to go with especially in the backs but still a solid 17? Or should I try and strengthen the 17?

should go ok with many guns not playing and fantasy coaches relying on a few low scoring reserves in their team

That cracked me up. Sorry I hit the downvote button accidentally with my fat finger.

Not bad at all mate, kind of similar to what I'm running this week too.  Not expecting big things but fielding 17 is enough that I shouldn't drop at least.  My team;

McInnes Brailey
Fifita Kaufusi Yates
Elliot, Tolo, Smat
Munster SJ Lamb
Cotric Croker Kelly
RTS Edwards Lolohea

When you lose some of your main players...:

Not a bad team for this round Wolfking!

I'm hoping a few coaches got caught out by the carnage

... maybe I'll gain some spots again
