Biographies,  yearbooks, histories. It's amazing.

There's a 1995 Super League PC game that looks great.

So my team is currently:

McInnes, Brailey
Brown, Wallace, VHorny, Hoare
Chrichy , Surgess , Kapow , JDB, Whitehead, Capewell
Norman, Munster, Brown, Laybutt
Croker, Cotric, Fuimaono, Scott
Edwards, RTS, Rapa , Hayne, Holmes

8 trades, 148K ITB. 

I'm thinking of making two cash out trades this week if i can, ideally for guys who play R18 since my other trades are a little dependent on origin and such.

I want cash for a Rd 20 Brailey - Smith, that's locked in as a trade to come, but then my other targets don't feel quite so obvious.

I wanted Billy back because i love him as a player but I also kind of expected him to have been let go by more teams who then couldn't afford to bring him back. However looking at it he still has ~25% ownership. The sauce is another player i wanted (~2.58%), so maybe i should just aim for him and forget all about Slater.

I wanted to bring SJ into the final team (through punting a WFB and shifting Munster down) because he's been far and away the best scoring half this season, but I'm wondering whether instead I'd be better off bringing in DCE if by some chance he isn't named for QLD, or Cleary. If I'm not doing the trade this week it means I'll be looking at DCE (9*45 = 405) or SJ (8*57 = 456) or Cleary (9*49 = 441). Actually looking at those numbers I probably should have gone through this earlier so that I could have shifted Munster this week and got more value out of the trade.... doh. 

Then i was contemplating Aitken to pair with Croker for the run in as maybe someone worth a gamble on for a CTR POD Keeper, who should be well underpriced come RD 19/20.  

So that's 4 Trades out of 8 if i went through with them all, though the cash would need to come from somewhere. 

Of those who I can consider expendable I guess I've got RTS, Holmes, Hayne (can't do it this week), Cotric (will hurt to do), Capewell (will also hurt and if i waited one more week I assume he should still make more cash). 

So... I guess, yeah i dunno, maybe i do the Sauce trade this week for RTS/Holmes and one cash out Cotric/Capewell. Damn once again If i'd done this process sooner i could have had the option to move Hayne up to Ctr whilst cashing out Cotric. Screw you real life stuff.

Alternatively, i'm sticking pins in a Braidon Burns doll for the rest of the weekend...and i'm clumsy...ouch.

P.S. Broncs wore St George Indigenous jersey for lead up to NAIDOC week. They also announced best 13 Indigenous players. The man Mundine 5/8
