    My bench halves are Hampton and Elgey.

    Fuck me let's go Kane Elgey!

    Two trades left and Munster possibly back next week... hold?

    Can you hold Munster and use one trade to upgrade Elgey to anyone better?

    It's not the end of the world having to play Elgey I probably lose 20-25 points but if Munster is out for 2 weeks I want to trade. Got 112k ITB so no one really worth trading Elgey to.

    I personally think you lose more than 25 points but if it's only one week I think you can cop it

    No problems this week, hopefully for my sake Slater is ruled out and maybe Burgess can have a rest.

    Nothin much to see here. Munster out, RTS in. Lets hope my starting halves outscore Nu Brown in my NPRs this week. And Tommy T isnt hte lowest scoring of my four centre options....
    Whilst Turbo's score was shit, it was a decent fullback's game.  He was an inch away on a couple of occasions of making a 20 odd point play, similar to early year form when 20/30 point games could have been 60's.  Here's hoping he makes those breaks this week  Very Happy

    I mean Munster averages around 50 and Elgey is good for 25 points I reckon.

    If he's only out for a week it's not worth trading so hopefully there's more info on his injury by Friday.

    king, gurgess, ipapali, smats, or hayne for final reserve?

    leaning towards king. he may play 80 again with that bench. i think he is most likely to reach 40 out of these mid rangers

    Understand the thinking pm, but Hayne is back at Fullback and has the higher ceiling.  No guarantees King plays 80, allthough probably will.

    Its out of Hayne and King mate. King is a safe 35 but Hayne can go bigger.

    Was literally about to post the same thing. For me add Walker in there too.

    Leaning towards Dufty. Solid score for his game and if they can get him more involved he could have a big score again. TB machine. Just have to make sure he doesnt drop out and Dugan goes back to FB.

    Must be the only player in the top 500 that doesn't have Surgess or Munster. Should hopefully see me climb a few ranks

    Losing Munster has forced my hand, I need to use my last trade to turn Gutherson into a keeper WFB.
    I am 2k short of Slater, 1k short of TTrbo. Can afford anybody else.

    It has to be Rapana, right?

    Why not give it a go, major POD and he's got a 50 AVG for a reason. At this point you might as well take that risk, not a whole lot of other tempting options.

    note i have munster and burgess - stumped what to do, if anything.

    edit: have mcinnes as my primary hooker and 230k in the bank, tempted to trade friend back in i spose as well,

    I have him in the halves but thankfully I have King Guth at WFB so I have that important versatility to move all my injured players around. One of you bitches can be my trade manager next year and lock me out for a few weeks mid season.

    I think at this stage it's better to use trades to get players out who are out of commission rather than underperformers.
