Cotric to centre and oldfield wing.

Oh are you guys weighing up wether to downgrade your teams best half option?

That isn't meant to sound snarky

Yeah, that's the dilemma mate.

Could go;

Lichaa - TPJ
Croft - Cleary

If I wanted to punt Croft and upgrade as opposed to downgrade.

Rochow > Murray & Cotric > MBye? Smart trades? Cotric looks useless in that Raiders team and Rochow looks about done cash. Edit: But will Cotric play better in the centre?

Foxsports early mail suggests Reece Robinson likely to replace Daniel Tupou

I remember Robinson from the Eels, he's pretty good. Don't know how he'll go fanatasy wise in this Roosters team.

Was a fairly solid player at raiders. Good with out being great.

Look like two players I wouldn't mind owning!

He had a good season or 2 at the Raiders DT wise under the old system from memory. Pretty sure there was a year where he was on the wish list pre-season for most DT coaches.

Robinson started at the broncos in ‘08

If JMK is named again this week I could go
Lichaa - Griffin (looking more and more likely of becoming 70-80 minute hooker)
Katoa - Opacic (get the gig with kahu out) or Oldfield

Sideways or okay? Griffin still has money to make and improving week after week. Job Security is pretty much sealed. Opacic should get the gig for next 2 months?

Hmmm, likely no trades this week - doesn't feel right! haha

Unless I go Nicholls to TPJ. Not happy that I can cant go Nicholls to Murray in one trade

Reece Robinson

2013 - 8 games at wing averaged 21
       - 16 games at fullback, averaged 35
2014 - 18 games, avg 24 (1 game at fullback, rest on the wing)
2015 - 6 games at wing, averaged 32
        - 13 full games at fullback, averaged 33, (discounting a 5 minute appearance)

Is a part time goalkicker

Bit older now but used to be lightning fast!

Scott ---> TPJ
Croft ---> Doughy

Means I am in trouble and have to play Cartwright + Croker once ARey is back but hopefully Dboy can make $100k in a few weeks. :/

Courier mail reckons Bird is a chance of early return this week. I think realistically though he'll be round 4

Either way opa has probably a week or two at best.

Is Leilua and Fualalo to Kennar and Murray a good trade?

I forgot about Bird. Maybe if Boyd pulls out Isaako to FB then Bird and Opacic in the left edge.

Thinking Croft to Mbye

Is there any harm in leaving Katoa in my squad for a few more weeks. Just can't seem to find a way to get rid of him.

Boyd is still injured but they’re no doubt injecting him with cortisol or something to keep it going. Opaciac may grab a bench spot but that’s it when Bird returns, unless of course Boyd breaks down.
