Hi Oz Sport Mad, Stew is a lover not a fighter anyway. But yes, you've got to worry about blokes like SI.

CNK named again is not making me a happy filth.
He plays again and I am betting he loses some cash over in Perth before I trade him out next round. :-/

Milchy has gone to visit his relatives in the UK. Any BE's just ask mate as always.
Just on this, I am concerned that Milchy may not make it back into Australia for a while. The current BSE restrictions from England to Australia call for a few weeks of quarantine I believe.

Thanks, mate. That's passable.
I would've left him in there if I didn't have to find some cash to upgrade Vaughan or Graham :-/

Bumped cos I didn't get a response
Which of these is the better option bearing in mind I only have 4 trades left
Option A: Semi to Tedesco and have 150k cash left
Option B: Semi to Cleary via Munster and have 115k left
Option C: Blow all the cash and go Hampton to Hunt or ARey
Option D: Trade Fai for Finucane via Brown and have 38k left

Do you need to do any of these with only 4 trades left?
Definitely not D with 4 trades, that's for sure.

Having only four trades left, I would be looking at creating depth.
I'd avoid Hunt/ARey because we don't know what's going to happen with them for the rest of the year (Bennett/injury).
Fai to Finucane might sound like the most left-field option but if it builds depth, get it done.
3 trades for the rest of the season at this point is simply not enough.
Which positions do you have the least depth in?

Cameron Smith seems to be only member of 'Big 3' in doubt to face @brisbanebroncos - not training, Bellamy coy as to injury specifics. #NRL

I can understand why you would think D, but if I had 4 trades left I personally wouldn't be doing it.

Crichtonne out!
Netts 500k that could upgrade 3 of my mid rangers that are remnants of bye planning into guns for the run home. Crichton's base stats aren't better than any other guns unless we go down the slippery path of including tries as his base stats.
He may well average nearly 80 going forward, but he could also average 50 odd without tries.
The 3 mid rangers would probably be Lord Dale/Musgrove/Tolman to Taupau/Lolo/Fifita.
Thoughts?
I find this fascinating and not that bad of an idea IMO. If you had 4 trades to spare and some depth, this is not as crazy as it sounds. Let him get another price rise or two and bam, you've easily made 500K. May even think about something like this myself in a couple of weeks.
Crichton won't keep posting the scores worthy of that price tag IMO. That 59 against the Eels for expample included a length of the field try, Not bad SI, not bad.
I probably wouldn't have the balls to do it, but it's not crazy.
