Yes and I don't know why

The first round where isaako isn't in my 17. I feel dirty and he'll probably score a 50

My halves are trash (Maloney and Croker)

Do I bring in;

1- Fifita and JMK and worry about halves later

2 - JT and JFH to keep the cash building

3 - Pearce and Gosie and bank $140k

4 - SJ/DCE and a nuffie and kill off that spot

Help pls!!

Hard to call. I'd recommend not killing off a spot yet, although if you do trade to Kotoa you may have a starting player in the next few weeks.
I'd also avoid JT, I don't think he's worth it.
Any combination of your other options if fine. Nothing wrong with doing something like JMK and JFH this week if it leaves you the cash to upgrade in a single trade next week.

Random unconfirmed rumours I am seeing in various groups to watch out for in case later confirmed....

Kennar may still be injured
Gillett may be out for 2 months

Who are you trading out ? I would be inclined without knowing the rest of your team to go James Fisher Harris and Jeremy Marshall King

More importantly, how is your hammy? Will you be good to play next week?

I'll be cashing in on Lodge and Griffin.

Yeah, something telling me to do the same, but Im probably wrong.

Ferguson 1st try. Roosters 13+

Cook, Kennar, Teddy + Latrell playing.

There will be a late change to this Rabbit's bench right? No way they have Deouihi and Hunt on the bench. Kyle Turner probably getting a spot.

It’s Gillett is it? I saw that but had no clue who it was

We should know about Kennar any second.

Or do you mean he will be playing injured?

Yeah, Turner should come in.

"Hymel Hunt and Campbell Graham were the two players dropped from the squad an hour out from kick-off. Jason Clark will start at lock after Cameron Murray was ruled out with a hamstring injury. The Rabbitohs welcome back winger Richie Kennar after a two-week absence due to a hamstring injury, pushing Dane Gagai back to centre and Hymel Hunt to the reserves. Murray and Robbie Farah were the two players dropped from the bench 24 hours before the start of the match."

Roosters 1-17

14. Doueihi
15. Nicholls
16. Tatola
17. Turner

@filthridden

Of the teams you listed below only the Dragons & Warriors have winning records...The Warriors can deploy Gelling as a second rower, Dragons can deploy Mann as a ball-playing utility - both acceptable bench options IMO. The others are wasting the opportunity to have another fresh set of legs in ky positions.

"THis week we have Hymel Hunt, Kerrod Holland, Kurt Mann, Gelling and others named on the bench. You'd probably say majority of these players main position would be centre but can play fullback/wing as well (Not sure about Hunt)."

The ony excuse might be if they have a crippled starter where there is a risk of an early shower.

Just my thoughts but then again I'm no NRL coach

If its gillett then i wonder if Sua can make any money..

Anyone tempted by Tapine. He seems to be an 80 minute 2fr now & only 554k. Up against the weakened Eels at home he should score pretty well.
