    TLT should be interesting for a few reasons this week.
    SiMat out, Vaughan possibly back... CNK/Kata?

    Croker Cotric Kelly SMat
    Walker Edwards Lolohea Slater Semi

    Not sure what the go is with Kelly, but if Fifi backs up I have 9 trades so should be able to get 17 using 2.  Wanted to cash out Semi and upgrade Elliot but looks like SMat to someone and Elliot or Kaufusi to Taupau, Mannering if Fifi backs up and I'm guessing Yates gets his regular game time back next week.  Might see more with SMat out too.

    With this squad and my money this week, I could go;

    Kaufusi to Taupau
    Elliot to Turbo via SMat (maybe even trade Semi)

    I like these trades.  Not ideal to leave SMat there but whatever.  Then, to do a double trade in round 20 to get Smith back, I either have to cashout SMat and someone like Lolohea and wait til 21 on Smith, or I have to cashout someone that's 388K or higher to get Smith in 20 with my second trade.  Looking at Edwards.  Not sure with my backs if I really need Edwards especially if I'm getting Turbo in there also.  Hmm....what would you do?

    Or is it worth keeping Kaufusi, he might be good for the run home?  Not sure it's worht keeping him if I can get Turbo and Kapow, especially in this week where a lot of people will be short.

    OK. Guth to Ted, SMat to ARey (can't afford DCE or Hunt) gives me 17 for week.

    McCul
    Fifi, Taupau
    Mannering, Surgess, Gall, JDB, Crichton
    SJ, ARey, Lolohea
    TTrbo, Hayne, Fui
    Ted, Cody, Edwards

    With exception of Friend and Munster for Fui and Lolohea that's also my season-ending 17 with JBrom, Scott, Aubs also in reserve and a grand total of one trade.

    I'd be wary of Ted backing up.

    Me too, but since he's a straight swap with Guth who's not playing it's easy to reverse. Looking at it I could reverse the Ted trade and get DCE instead. Might actuslly do thst anyway.

    On subject of Guth, someone questioned selling him... think he's averaged 43 at FB, which is decent but expect Ted or DCE to average 50 so, if he does back up and play 19 it'll be worth 100 points over season at same price. All barring injury, of course.

    Guth's been great to own over the byes with his biggest scores of the season in 15 and 18, but time's up for me.

    Why did Tommy T have to go and get a 70 the week before I want him in?

    Need a big week from my mob.

    Team:
    McInnes, Koroisau (R)
    Fifita, Taupau
    Crichton, Surgess, Gallen, JDB (R), Taumalolo (R)
    Johnson, Reynolds
    Trbo, Hayne, Fui (R)
    Tedesco, RTS, Edwards.

    Lane 18th (and potentially a nothing score from Frown if he plays off bench). Expecting at least one of Tedesco, Hayne, or Fifita to fail to back up.

    Munster, Nathan Brown, and Curtis Scott on byes.

    Team now set for the run home with just Cam Smith in for Koro next week in one trade using cash. 4 trades will remain after that. Prepare for mass injuries this week!

    You're thinking on Guth is kind of my thinking on Felise. Seems like the right move, although both would be worthy to stay IMO.

    Thanks guys. I asked this before but didn't get a response. McCullough had zero kicking meters last game. Is this due to inclusion of Ben Hunt, KNiko and Benji?

    So many mid rangers and border line keepers. Time to make a list and cull them in order of urgency
    Isn't Smat a definite cashout with his compound fracture to his finger? Boyd had a finger injury that took him out for a fair while.
    I don't think Yates is worth keeping even with his regular minutes
    Kaufusi isn't an urgent cashout. With a full strength storm and the lines he runs, he could be worth keeping as an 18th or POD in certain games.
    I'm happy with keeping Edwards over TTurbo and definitely over lolohea.

    4 weeks out for one of your starters with only 8 weeks left in the season = trade.
    Someone who averages half of what SiMat does will outscore him.

    Even if he's only out for three weeks, That's 5x35=175 (SiMat) vs 8*25=200(a shit centre) still outscoring by 25 points let's be honest you'd probably find someone with a higher average than 25.

    Even if you can't afford an upgrade, with SIMat at 313k, cheaper options include Euan Aitken, Peachey, Curtis Scott, Hayne... no reason not to trade that I can see.

    You're basically right on all counts here, was just thinking of maximum points this week with Turbo and Taupau. I'm certainly not sold on selling Felise though. If I go through with out, I think I'll cash Yates and SMat next week and get Smith the round after. Could get Turbo this week for SMat, cash Yates out for maybe Twal and not worry about Taupau at this stage and keep Felise, not sure. I may need to gamble on Yates again if Fifi doesn't back up.

    I'm definitely trading him, no question just might have to wait until next week if I go Turbo and Taupau this week as his value is just short. He's definitely gone next week, just working on future trades and points this week.

    1 or 2 for sure. Probably Macca. Don't think Kodi is much threat taking minutes off him anymore.
