If I owned DCE, I wouldn't be worried - not for this round at least.

DCE owner & I'm not worried. Manly are never going to suspend DCE.

I was going to keep him after hearing of no Levi on the bench, but a further look at his sores / mins and i think he has hit his ceiling (with no tries), the only upside i see with him is he plays round 13.

I won't be reversing my trade this week. Griffin > Su'a.

I reversed mine, because he has more potential than Godinet. So my plan is Griffin has potential upside, and wont lose that much cash most likely. Then I can trade Griffin & Lodge next week for 1 gun & 1 Cow

DCE won't get suspended at all.

That fuzzy warm feeling when you realise JMK comes in for Murray

What if Griffin plays big minutes & scores 50+. Will that alter your plan or will you sell someone else.

Choice.

Here are my options:

1) TPJ --> Rein. Bank a trade and the remaining cash but commit to keeping Sao in the emergencies for the forseeable future...
2) Sao --> Rein. Bank a trade but risk TPJ losing value and delaying trading him out for a week.
3) Sao --> Rein, TPJ --> Su'a. No banked trades (again) but solid cash out with two other money makers coming in.

Any ideas? I'm struggling to pick...

How many trades have you used up until now?

If he scores 50+ i would hold him until his score or mins drop then sell him.

The cold feeling when you realised Murray's playing and you don't get JMK's points = Priceless

Murray out.

Ok I.Papalii in for Murray. Nicholls will not get many points

Alright with Murray out who to play between NAS and Rochow?

Not a problem just yet as long as you have a clear plan of when you want to use your remaining trades.

ie; use 8 between now and round 13.
use 8 between round 13 and 18
use 6 to finalise team
keep 3 for injuries/suspensions once final team is achieved.

In saying that I reckon Sao to Rein is your best bet. TPJ may lose cash but at least he seems to be in the 17 permanently which means you could use him as back up if needed.
Sao may not lose cash but he's also not a positive sitting there doing nothing and not scoring you any points as a EMG if you need it.

Then I hold him longer. My downside is these are the guys I am looking at trading.

Isaako, JMK, Gosiewski, Havili, Su'a (Making cash)
V. Kikau, J. Fisher-Harris (Still got cash to make, and are potential keepers)
Thompson (Potential to have a big game and make more money, could also be capping out soon.)

Lodge, Griffin are planned trade outs next week. If either of them goes big, and has cash or becomes a potential keeper. Then I will probably be forced to trade out Thompson a little earlier than I would like. (I wont have the cash to just straight up, upgrade one of these guys.)

I am also looking at long term trade out options. So cheapest guys who will play out the year. I think I have enough trades for one or two more cash cows.

I vote Robbie

Alright, bugger it. Lodge and TPJ out for Tolo and Rein. Running 5 hookers, I like it. Playing Havilli over Rochow, but if TPJ for some reason starts, I'll trade Rochow instead and keep TPJ and poophole him.

Why are people saying DCE might be suspended? Because of the Hastings incident? Seriously can't be that. What else did he do?
