1 week?

Yeah mate seems fair.

So.. Robinson has to score over 100 total points before he is replaced is that correct?

Croft to Doueihi Thompson or Murray. I think Doueihi allows me to look at Murray later and maybe FRF improvement. Thompson not final 17 material but solid and still has money to make

Team as it stands:

Smith (c)
Lodge, Aarow
NBrown, Murray, RFM
Croker, Doughy
Inglis, Kennar
Teddy, Dufty, Ponga

Cook, Griffin, Cartwright, Kikau

CThompson, Havili, Hayne, Nicholls

Tossing up whether to play Hayne or Kennar in my centres. Hayne has to go. Inglis... I'm holding out for that switch to fullback.

Anything I'm missing?

You don't need to look at Murray anymore.

Yeah, I'd piss Hayne off. I'm not liking what I'm seeing from Inglis though but it is Inglis. Not sure if a fullback switch will happen, but you never know. If Bunnies lose again, could be more of a shakeup. Thompson is worth playing somewhere, even over Kikau or Carty IMO.

I’m surprised Tolman didn’t start the year there to be honest. I think he gets 50mins at the very least I’m hoping he scores a 40 so I can pick him up in two weeks definitely one I have my eye on

Looking is wrong word. This week last chance to get Doueihi or Thompson

Hey Guys,

Need a little help. Which trade seems the better option?

A. Croft & SST for TPJ & Doueihi. Leaves me with roughly $400k ITB. Would have to play Williams & Doueihi/Carty in the halves.

B. Nicholls & SST for TPJ & Doueihi. Leave me with roughly $200k ITB.

Technically, over 99.

But yeah. that's a deal

what are SST owners thinking this week? hold or sell?
does the popular conversation around TPJ and Murray affect his place in your teams?

wolfking wrote:Can I have some opinions wise men?  What should I do;

Smith
Lodge Arrow
Murray Whitehead RFM
Croft Carty
Mitchell Kennar
Teddy Thompson Ponga

Cook Lichaa Griffin Kikau

Nicholls Havilli Croker Isaako

A) Lichaa - TPJ, Croft - Cleary (10K left over)
B) Lichaa - Macca, Croft - Doueihi (261K left over)
C) Lichaa - TPJ, Croft - Doueihi (615K left over for later upgrades)

I'm leaning towards C, then my team will be a a killer position to make money. Could also go Nicholls to TPJ and keep Lichaa I guess.

Like B Macca is a keeper and Doueihi will make cash plus you have some left for upgrades else where.

Cheers mate.

Fair enough, and yes, definitely last chance for both of those players. Murray won't go up that much this week.

Going to try the Katoa loophole this weekend. Just so I know so I don't look silly.

My EMG is
18. Havili
19. Thompson
20. Kennar
21. Croker

Thompson plays Friday Kenner plays Saturday. If Thompson scored a 15 I just swap havili and Kennar (hoping he does better than 15) and then I would get Kennar scores as my EMG would then be

18. Kennar - 100
19. Thompson - 15
20. Havili
21. Croker

Ok since I got no replies on API, I've moved on to these trades.

Croft to Cleary/SJ and Latrell to TPJ.

Thoughts on these and would you guys rather SJ or Cleary ROS?

I don't have Murray, TPJ, RFM or Thompson. Feel like I have the poor mans version of each. Arrow, Hiku, Kikau.

Not going to rush any of the above players in anymore. Murray will come in when I can afford him with out having to waste trades.

Unless you have some other massive issues in your team, those trades are no brainers.

Anyone who says they wouldn't do those trades is cray.

Personally id take SJ. But that's based on a hunch not logic

Hey mate, don't get discouraged if questions don't get answered. The thread moves so quickly it's near impossible for every single question and team to get opinions and answers on. Just post again and you'll get responses.

What was your Api trade? It's hard he's been killing it but with Hastings on the bench, it's hard to see him being a consistent scorer, but you never know. If I were to pick SJ or Cleary, SJ is the fav, but he and the Warriors can burn you, CLeary is just consistent and solid.

I'm not sold on trading Latrell though. I have him and expect him to put up some big games. He scored 37 without doing too much, so I'll take that.

Depends who is playing in place of Latrell though.

Thanks boys, I did post late last night but went cold on Api so switched it up.

I'd be playing hiku and kennar in my ctr. I feel like TPJ will be a force all year. Watching the games, I agree that SJ looks better but inconsistency at that pricepoint scares me.
