I wasn't looking at him but this is mighty tempting.  Any chance he would keep a spot?  How long is Mead and Oates out for?

Is this kid any good?

i don't know much about him but others have said he is in the running for q cup player of the year. Don't forgot Boyd will be back, most likely, next week. Oates only just got out of hospital

I dunno if this will work, nice highlights from q cup this year, kid can move - https://twitter.com/i/videos/tweet/884608076908601344

Needed a front row cashout this week if Fifi doesn't play like Taga or someone, but if he does, I might cashout Lolohea this week instead who I was going to cashout next week, but might just do it a week early. Against the Knights, he could still put on a decent score. Might even run one short in the front row, get him in for Lolohea and loophole.

Captains this week?

I can't loophole so I'm thinking perhaps Taumalolo this week

First Friend goes down and now McGuire is being rested. My team is fucked again.

RTS to DCE yes or no? Regardless of trades remaining

Why get rid of RTS?

Yes then

Just realised that I can do Fui to DCE instead,would that be a better trade? Would mean I have BJ Hayne Scott and Kelly in my CTRS and I could always trade out RTS for Turbo or Tedesco in a week or two. Better to hold RTS than Fui yeah?

I wouldnt get rid of RTS full stop.

I don't think Tedesco or turbo is an upgrade at all

If Vaughan plays I'll have 18.

With only $118k ITB I need some extra funds to upgrade B.Smith to C.Smith next week. Fuimaono, Cotric, Holmes, Hayne.

Who goes this week? and then next week?

Unfortunately I have Brown and Kelly outside of the 17 this week. Really hoping Fifita plays

Yeah most likely I wouldn't trade him to either of those guys as it's a bit sideways. What about the Fui to DCE trade?

I posted my team earlier in the week after my Fui to Teddy trade leaving me with 2 trades and $24k itb. Apologies for re posting but I have some other moves which I wouldn't mind getting some opinions on if it's ok.

My team as it stands now after the Teddy trade,

C.Smith C.McInnes
A.Fifita M.Taupau
P.Gallen S.Burgess JDB A.Crichton J.Taumalolo N.Brown
S.Johnson N.Cleary
T.Trbojevic C.Scott J.Hayne
J.Tedesco C.Munster J.Mansour D.Edwards RTS

I'm thinking reverse Teddy trade and do RTS to DCE as he has a lower BE. Ful should go up in price after this round and Teddy against Manly may have a quite one and drop some cash. If and only if this happens I'll then have the cash to do Fui to Teddy next week leaving me with 1 trade.

I should have enough cover in every position so that 1 trade may get me through. So what to do, dont trade at all this week? leave the team as it is above? or get DCE this week and Teddy next week having to rely on price changes going my way to be able to do it?

Thanks in advance lads.

The reality is that the Tigers are a dog $hit team now. So I wouldn't expect Teddy to outscore RTS by a meaningful amount. If you have the trades to burn go for it, but I wouldn't bank on an 8 point on average higher score.

RTS still has the single digit injury score affecting his average. Also his last 5 round average is 6 points higher than Teddy

McGuire being rested is good news, since I traded him out last week hehe
