Got nearly $400,000 after dumping Lichaa for Doughickey last week, could go Croft to Murray and Nicholls to Reece Robinson because he has the potential to make cash like Kennar/Isaako on that Rostwrs wing

Croft to Murray and sit on the other trade for a week?

It's been said that Croft will likely make back that cash at some point when things click for the Storm. I just don't want to be shunning points and money for that scenario

Yep. Better to burn trades like crazy instead chasing cash.

After all, if fanhub don't show us number of trades remaining on the site, it means we have unlimited trades, right?

This is what I have atm

Griffin Cook Lichaa Kikau

Havili Croker Nicholls Doeueihi


300k in the bank, Wanna go Croft-Dce and Lichaa- Muarry leaving 55k.
I'm still leaving myself no wfb/centre spare (fingers crossed) and not sure what to do with Nicholls so that's future mes problem.

Reckon those trades are any good?

We're all dumping Croft for him to score a 50+ this coming weekend...

Fingers is in great form I cant see them going away from his side of the field too much. Tupous main asset was his height.

Who is fingers?

I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic or not?

Nah if he was punted he wouldn't be welcome back. I know ultimately its silly talk, its not a gud move. Might just go Croft to Murray.

Maybe Nicholls -> Murray and give Croft a chance to get some cash back.
Will give you a stronger bench too.

On Aubs, was it the case that when he and Matterson were on the field at the same time last week, Aubs played C and Matterson 2nd row? if that was the case is there a reason that would necessarily change should both be fit?

Any suggestion on improving my team? Thanks

It would be a bonus Finchy. But 80 is the main hope.

Not much use playing 80 if you are going to be behind your goal posts for half the game watching the opposition converting tries

Doing the maths on the first 2 games should have him averaging around 50 if he gets the 80 so here's hoping.

Thought about giving Croft a chance?
He has to come good eventually.

Trade Nicholls for Doh!

Really think Dufty can fire this season, but 250-300k odd cash could fund a few upgrades in the coming weeks (Rochow....)

I bought him as a keeper and not worried about him, and as you say, could really fire. If it gives you a couple of solid Forward upgrades then it's probably worth it.

After seeing this pic Croft is definitely out of my team

How was McKendry ever going to carry your weight  

I blame Griffen(and the NRL, when will they crack down on clubs not naming the team they intend all week to play) the late change benching Kikau meant a late trade to McKendry(and then using my 1st season trade to bring in Kikau)

Yeah, nearly did it myself, there weren't many options left by that stage.

Croft for me is done. Can only see him as Cronk 2.0 good on the field, not in fantasy. I think his main job this season will be to direct traffic and let munster be the show boat.

Blake Fergusson. I'm sure it was him that put his fingers down a womans pants/up her skirt?

I'm considering Maubbs to Robinson and playing him and Croft to Thurston +230k. Alternatively, rather than Thurston I could get anyone not named Smith or Lolo, I'm thinking maybe Crichton. Would mean playing Cartwight and Douehi in the halves though (with Croker as cover) Thoughts?

Rev I'm going towards a single trade of Croft - Murray and saving a trade currently, or Nicholls - Murray and keep faith with Croft. I'm going with the herd this year instead of shunning them expecting the opposite, but always end up looking like a moron in that scenario!!

Mulv, I can also go Croft - Anyone but Murray has so much money making potential and a high point ceiling, money making doesn't matter too much if he becomes a keeper but if he gets injured towards the seasons end I can make the jump easily to another gun
