Mate, I personally would be a bit scared with only 3 trades but Fui to Turbo sounds mighty tempting.  Maybe hope Maloney doesn't back up and NuBrown gets a run?  If you can field 17 then I'd probably play it safe.  Looking at your team though, a third half wouldn't hurt.  probably take the gamble and hope you can get Pearce.  If not Cleary looking great for the run home too.

EDIT:  Jsut saw it looks like you'll only be able to run with the two halves moving Munster down.  That's not the end of the world if Cleary or Pearce is your second half.

Where are you ranked bro? I have the same team except Reynolds and Fui instead of Cleary and Mansour

215th mate, last week killed me but hope to make up some ground in the home stretch.

Option B: Trade RTS to DCE and hope Fui can make up the difference (roughly 25k) to trade to Turbo

Option C: Trade Munster for Pearce and RTS to Turbo or Tedesco (don't really like this one)

Opinions please?

Since you have 3 trades I think C is out.  I think you have more chance of A than B, but not sure what their BE's are.

wolfking wrote:So Fifita playing Origin and has a baby due any day.  I don't like the chances of him backing up.  I'm preparing not to have him in my team this week I think.  Happy to be wrong of course.

haha, yeah given our similarity in squads it makes sense that last week was also a bit painful for myself too.

I'm sitting at 102.

Really need to make the right captain call this week. Still hurting after Edwards last week.

Current ~300th and just keen to get as high as possible so up for a high risk player if it means more potential reward!

I like JTrbo as he is an 80 minute player. Those low minutes that Fifita plays makes him so unstable.

It's his third child. Who cares about that?

Having a POD or high risk player is the most obvious way of making up ground on the leaders but...............

Not having someone like Fifita who will have an even higher ownership after Origin could set you back even further expecially if he goes really big.

My vote is for Fifita, he has the ability to score very quickly and doesn't need 80mins to post a big score. In beast mode he is unstoppable and a must have.
