The broncos said you didnt require surgery

Totally forgot about Josh McGuire being out of action also. Thanks for the well wishes lads. Much appreciated.


DCE a trade in this week or wait until Maloney has maxed out then make the switch? Missed the Taumalolo train or ripe to trade in?

MWZ has been injured.

I can't find that anywhere How long?

@Moose Taumalolo still $82k cheaper than starting so not a bad time to buy

Any help lads? I've got six red dots and despite rumours/benching of JMK and Soro I will be playing both of them.

Brown has to go now mate surely, should of done one of him/Surgess last week

You have no CTR cover so use cash to upgrade Dugan and will have plenty of bank for next week to fix the rest

Yikes, that's horrible luck. Priority trade is obviously a centre then Croker as it's a season-ender. How about eg. Dugan to DWalker and Croker to Cogger. Next week you have 300k and could cash out Kennar to other WFB/CTR cover and turn Gosi or Soro to any gun. You'll actually be in quite a nice position when Brown and Surgess are back and other players are figuring how to bring them in.

Channel nine just announced the earlier rumour. Lichaa although named has been dropped and stayed in sydney to play reserve grade. JMK hooker and Frawley to halves. Also stated that Carney has left the cowboys to return to sydney

BUMP

How does this team look post trades?
Gosiewski to Haas
Thompson to Norman

Cook
Fifita TPJ
Matterson Arrow RFM
DCE Norman
Mitchell Isaako
Tedesco Ponga Mbye

Smith
Murray
Kikau
JFH

Sua
JMK
Haas
Fine

Hopefully wouldn't need to trade for a few weeks after this as my bank is almost empty, thoughts?

Should have -in retrospect - done Brown already, but as he hasn't it's sunk costs and it's a hold. If it's a four week injury you trade him, but if it's two week injury (from now) you hold him. The fact he's been out two weeks already is irrelevant to current calculation.

Well yes I should have and it would have been perfect but hindsight is 20/20. I was really proud of myself with being really patient with the injuries/suspensions despite the urge to rage trade. With the available information we had on Brown and and not being able to predict four of my players getting injured in one week, if I had my time again, I would still do the same thing. Anyhow, I'm not against the idea of D.Walker. Free's up some cash and he averaged 34.5 at 5/8 in 2016 (removing his gk points which he won't get). Priced at 27. Available at centre. Plays Round 13. Thoughts?

Playing around with some trades and can go Maloney/Gosi for Fifita/Taumalolo with 0 cash left over
Not sure if that is a sign haha

Will probably do something else completely but it felt good, even if only for a short time

What's the go with young Haas.

Was hoping to get Fifita in this week but the only way to do that is to get Haas

Gossy > Haas
Dugan > Fifita and play Hiku

Thoughts guys. Doesn't feel like I'll be improving my ranking this week.

How many keepers should we have now? After trades I still see 10 in my team plus JFH a possible out... Should I reverse my trades and make sure one of them is a keeper? Damn Dugan... funked me reeeal good

Gos > Lane
Dugan > DWalker

Too risky??

Trades this week. Not sure if they should happen. No CTR cover

Kenner > Watson
Mbye > Katoa

Cook
Arrow Fifita
RFM Murray Kikau
Johnson Matterson
Hiku Isaako
Ponga RTS Thompson

Maloney Havili Su'a Watson
Katoa Nicholls JMK Croker

Channel 9 reporting that Dylan Edwards is out for the season as he needs surgery.

Duges ---> Mitchell
NBrown ---> Fifita

Gos and Kennar my red dots.

Should still score well but slatsing through my trades.

Thanks mate, you don't think I should ditch Brown? Could be three more weeks.

Keeping Dugan because I'll only be tempted to trade him back in after he returns 

Croker - Cogger

holding Gos and Dugan
