Pain wrote:If I trade Rowchow and Thompson out I think I have 3 options

1. Nbrown and Sorenson
2. Fifita/Tlolo and 212k/gelling
3. Norman/CWalker and Bird

Thoughts on best option?

No Norman he hasn't the same high floor with Moses as he use to have without

Brown can match Tlolo, not sure about matching Fifita though, but Sorenson could be a good cashie

Option 2 if you can luck out and grab a good cashie could be a go-er

Hmm if Brown is back I can hold. I'm also wondering if TPJ - Fifita is a go this week (financed with a Havili downgrade) or if I should just hold

Definite hold if Brown returns mate

Gosiewski - Slow burner but getting 80 minutes. Meaning he has potential for a big score.

Sorensen - Massive score, sketchy job security but even with scores around 25 should make steady cash.

Jack Cogger - Lamb was dropped in favour of Cogger. So assuming he doesn't get jumped by Lamb this week. Then he could be a steady earner and have more upside not playing along Pearce.

Other blokes to look at Kasiano (He could get good minutes with Brom out), Watson (Due back this week and no Pearce),

Speaking of Bromwich, my autofill team is going to look like a trainwreck this week lol

1 or 2 for mine.

Sorenson is the better cash cow over Gelling, but Fifita probably averages an extra 10 points on Brown a week. Brown could also be eased back into it. So it depends if you want to keep your cashflow potentially more steady, or roll with more guaranteed points.

Tough call to make, but Fifita looks to be the man of the hour so I lean to him.

Good points

I'm starting to.get worried that cash generation is going to be an issue this year.

Lack of good cashies seems to be the issue and we don't have space to carry duds or even slow burners

This also worries me, looking to get guns in but i look at my bench and think fuck I'm going to be a lot of cash short of future upgrades and being stuck with the likes of ARey over SJ in he long run

Might be better keeping the slow burners until some more solid base cashies emerge, they always do, still only 7 rounds in mate.

just got to pick the right ones then like Thomo over CCrichton lol

What the fucks wrong with ARey? Wash you moith out.

Hey guys, been lurking this year. Just wanted to add some comments...

Mitch Rein - didn't see the game but wanted to punt on him last week (brought in Lolo instead). At low 400's now, could make >200k in 5 weeks. Is there something I'm missing regarding him? Lodge to Rein is handy for me.

Perhaps I'm looking at these type of cows (stepping stone probs a better term) because (a) Sorenson aside, I don't like what cheapies are on offer; and (b) I've had some success picking up Maloney and Brooks, so bias on those 'results' is perhaps skewing my judgement.

Rochow vs Havilli - Both have made some cash for us, the question is who can make more now? The only one with potential upside is Havilli. Both have downside. One has Ricky as a coach, the other falls off tackles too much for this game for a fwd with below average attacking ability.

I traded Rochow last week and was thankful for his contribution to my team. Havili will go soon for me as well, but I'd prefer holding him.

Nothing at present, but would look to move to SJ if he doesn't start edgin closer to 50.

Still keeping strong because he has had zero attacking stats last 2 starts and been solid as fuck still

I rate Gelling over Kata and pretty much every centre at the Warriors. He's strong defensively; he matched Euan Aitken's attack all game last week. If he does well enough, I hope he nabs the starting spot. He also knows how to pass! (maybe not from dummy half lol)

What are the prospects of Sorensen? Thinking cash cow/stepping stone similar to Rein

Hoping TLT throws a big minute cash cow/middy  our way because I think we all need one. Possibilities - Brock Lamb, Jack Cogger, Payne Haas, Tui Kamikamika, Matty Wright (Parker out 4-6), Shaun Fensom, Greg Leleisiuao

Just realised I can go havili to Aitken and Kennar to Sorenson. Makes my centres Mitchell and Aitken with isaako for cover and leaves me with 253K itb to get Fifi in next week. Thoughts?

A) havili > Fifi and Kennar > Sorenson - 91K itb 
B) havili > Aitken and Kennar to anyone 547K and below

Problem is Peats could be back in two weeks. He may still make a little cash off the bench with a low BE, but the cash will dry up quickly. Meaning you are making two trades in very quick succession and he may not make the $200k you need. It is worth a risk if you don't like other options.

Rochow had a very bad game, but at least he gets minutes where that isn't exactly the case with Havili.

I would compare him more to Su'a. He had a massive game. He could return to the bench, and have low 20s. But with the one big game means he will make cash the next three or four weeks. With the sharks injuries he may get one or possibly two more starts. (If he is lucky) and make some decent cash. He should keep a bench spot and is far cheaper than Rein. So I would rate him a little higher. Even if his job security is more at risk.

There is like twelve people online. Throw up some questions.

Could you order these fine gentlemen in order to play this week then please Random

TPJ
Havili
Gos

TPJ
Havili
Gos
Su'a
Rochow
Kennar

TPJ (If starting)
Gosiewski
Rochow (Expecting him to bounce back with a solid score around the 35 mark at least.)
Havili (Sticky is too inconsistent with his minutes. If he could get 80 he would be top of the list.)
Su'a (Looks to be boom or bust.)
Kennar (He could top score, but is still a winger.)
