    Yeah I saw that Fifita is getting massive minutes and what made me think of him in the first place but Lewis is due back soon and he’ll start pushing Buyuka back into the prop rotation I feel he’ll get more mins than Paulo is getting that’s why I was considering Alvaro

    Thompson Ponga Tedesco

    Cook Murray Kikau Cartwright

    Havili Isaako Croker TPJ

    Would you guys trade this week? Carty is a possible trade out target, but I'm happy to hold TPJ in the interim. I need to wait for some cows to mature so I can milk them. Any suggestions?

    If I put RTS in I’ll have Ponga, Dufty and him with Thompson on he bench as cover. I feel that’s pretty set for the rest of the year unless there are injuries. I think RTS is in the type of form he can score well in a beaten team

    Alvaro scores have been pretty much all base stats. With how badly the Eels are doing up front is there a chance he gets more time?

    With Tigers, Panthers, Raiders, Sea Eagles, Tigers coming up there could be a chance at some attacking stats hopefully?

    I'd like to do Merrin to Fifita but I can't find the extra 86k I'd need to do it. All of my trade out options have low BE's :/ Inglis to one of the cows doesn't provide enough funds. Cartwright in my EMG's to JMK would do it though.. is that too sideways?

    Once Reynolds is back I would need a playing hlf (Cartwright) or wfb, since Douehi won't be worth playing.

    I tend to agree with the first one. I'm still a bit skeptical on Alvaro maintaining big scores, but thats the type of person I am.

    Lichaa isn't an urgent trade out, but at the same time his scores don't appear to be going anywhere.

    I do like the safety of having Fifita but I feel that Alvaro and RTS will outscore Lichaa and Fifita

    Thinking my only trade this week will be Lichaa to JMK unless anyone see anything glaring? Carty will become either DCE or Taupau in the next week or two

    If you think RTS keeps scoring the way he has been then go for it. I got in Fifita this week because he's scoring well without having one of those big runs he's known for. If he busts out 1 or 2 of those all of a sudden he's scored 100 and I won't be happy if I don't have him when he does it.

    Not buying Hess mania. He played 80 min games last season and had some dud scores after 2 big scores in 3 early on

    Looking at brining Taupau in this week (maybe!)

    Of the ones I dont have - on the radar are CWalker, Surgess and Friend.

    Taupau will have 1 run that is worth over 30 points alone soon. He's a keeper despite the limited minutes he often gets.

    I thought you meant trading Taupau to Fifita.. I got Fifita this week, so that's where I'm at.

    He has the second highest average of all the FRFs doesn't he? Its pretty crazy what he has managed in terms of PPM.

    Are you thinking of going Taupau to Fifita? or tossing up which one to get?

    Plays Rd13, like Fifita can go big if he gets a couple good runs.
