Johnson, Munster, Elgey, Hampton
Luilua, Fuimaono, Hayne, Suli
Walker, RTS, Edwards, Radradra, Cotric

Suli to Scott for some coin and another player this week and 18?

Elgey to Feeny for cash hahaha?

Why do you have to do something other than get rid of Elgey. Why is that spud still in your team?

He's kinda just... there. Have barely played him all year and haven't been able to upgrade him yet. I could have traded him to Lolohea a couple of weeks ago but I didn't want a Tigers half.

I guess I could get away with not trading this week but my reserves aren't great (Bromwich, Elliot, Suli and Hampton). I have been really considering trading Smith. It would make me a lot of cash and he misses 3 of the next 4 games...

Scott is interesting but he will probably just get dropped next week.

So seems @Rabbit is defs gonna lose his wager regarding Kaysa Pritchard I suppose... Poor fella that Rabbit, having a bad run of loses, wouldn't go walking under any ladders or unnecessarily crossing streets mate.

So who was the guy that lived in South America?

That's a lot of depth. How many trades left?

I know it sounds stupid but I have the option of bringing in Cleary for Hampton for round 18 or after but I'm thinking of going Brown to JTurbo after round 18 as if I went Cleary I would have McInnes two 2RFs and Cleary as reserves with Brown just sitting there. I will also have Hayne as a reserve option as I'm bringing in Tedesco for Semi next week. What would people do in my situation?

Got a question for you all guys... My team is as follows, should I make any trades this week or hold and loophole?

Brailey Pritchard
Vaughan Fifita Graham Jensen
Gallen Taylor SMat Crichton Surgess Capewell
SJ Munster Walker Nuffie
Cotric Mitchell Fuimaono Nuffie
Hayne RTS Holmes Teddy Abbey

14 trades remaining 80k ITB

I bought Pritchard in for Smith as bye round cover but that has gone pear shaped obvs. I also had planned on offloading Brailey to McInnes. I have other trades planned with a final 17 in mind but I'm not sure whether to make any of those moves this week. Reason is that if I don't I can VC SJ, Vaughan, Graham, Latrell et al and C Fifi or Gal and use the loop hole via some DPP moves. 

The downside to this is that to make the moves I wanna make I need to make a few cashouts... Question is, do I do so this week and make Pritchard into McInnes and negate the loophole or leave it as is and go for gold, making the moves next week or the week after?

Hey Loomer. Is having 2 VC's some kind of new loophole in the system that you have discovered?

From Sportal? Used to talk about the piss and food over there a fair bit. Can't think but it's gonna shit me for the rest of the day now.

Typo Which one

Smith, McInnes
Fifi, Graham, Brown
JDB, Lolo, Surgess, Chrichton, Gallen, Elliot
SJ, Munster, NuBrown
Cotric, Suli, Scott, Fui
Slater, RTS, Edwards, Hayne

Was planning on doing the JDB>Kapow trade this week for numbers, but now considering Slater>TTurbo instead. I don't completely trust Kapow. After round 18, I'd downgrade Elliot to turn Suli into a good WFB and pop Tommy into the Centres. Anyone see anything else?

I don't remember anyone from South America SI. It must have been after I cut back my time on the forum.

If you can re-post it without the typo (so I know what you meant), I can probably give you an opinion.

Not sure if that's even what Pain's asking but there was an Aussie who posted for a bit, maybe 2013ish.

Smith Mcinnes
Brown Mcguire Graham Fai
Crichton Burgess De Belin Merrin Whitehead Brit
Johnson Walker Hampton Laybutt
Sione Croker Fui (138K)
Cotric Hayne RTS Suli Burns

10 trades 175k Atm thinking Suli-Edwards and Sione-Munster, then the following week cotric to Tommy Turbo. Any better ideas on what i should be doing?

There was Cuban (technically not South America I know)... But I have a feeling there was another bloke that was in Sao Paulo or somewhere in Brazil (possibly) around the same sort of time and earlier.

lucked out hard this round, could've been a disaster with all the pull-outs, but MWZ, Scott and now Fogarty has brought me back to the full 17

Hey what are the thoughts on C.Smith option for a trade out? B.Smith scores look a little inflated due to tries. What about Api Koroisau? Plays next 4 weeks to Cams 1. Mitch Rein would be ideal however he looks like he might be replaced come next week or the week after.
