    For me it's more that he's the best target for upgrade outside of JFH or Havili. If I want to get someone like Taupau/Taumalolo this week then one of those 3 has to go. Ideally he would stay another week so I can do something else with the trade

    How come the Rogues Facebook page advertises a breakevens page called 'Rogue Stats' but when you click on 'Rogue Stats' you just get redirected to MTBs site? At least the Renegades credited MTB.

    If I decide to keep arrow, I can turn Thompson and JFH into capewell/Fonua and fifita

    Probably Brown to Walker. Allows me to shift Latrell to CTR and shift Isaako to EMG with Walker in my back three.

    Ah, that makes perfect sense then StuDogg. In that instance, if you had to make a move this week then he would seem the best target to move to bring one of those guns in.

    I can do Sorenson and Thompson for the Trbo borthers. Or could instead bring in Taumalolo and RTS

    Other option is to try and ditch Hiku for a centre

    $5k off bringing in Latrell and Taumalolo.

    Quoite a few options this week. Some of my trade-in targets have high BEs and might drop cash, but so do my trade out targets/ So thinking of making the switch for points (and also insurance about them busting out a 90 like Fifita did)

    Not looking to ditch Rein or Maloney like some, but Thompson, Hiku and RFM all might have peaked in cash.
    If Arrow doesn't get good news can trade him out, but will keep if I can.

    Wow @ those shipping RFM.

    I have no fewer than 6 guys that need to go. 7 if Arrow is ruled out for extended period and that includes having Rein and Havili in my 17!!

    Very jealous and likely I’ll be slipping out of the top 1k soon if that’s how people are traveling

    Brooks to DCE for me. Hesitant because of 'Manly issues'. My other trade will likely be Soro down to Martin.

    Not trading RFM yet. I can see the reason to do so based on his BE/price, but the guy is travelling at 50ppg. Upgrading him doesn't improve my team as much, it's kind of a luxury while I have other leaks.

    Upgrades in my 17 I need to make (deficit relative to ideal premo scores)
    Inglis (-15)
    Maubusson (-15)
    Maloney (-10)
    BJ (-7)
    JFH (-7)

    Rein (-5)
    RFM (-5)
    Kikau (-5)


    The ones in Italics are borderline keepers. I'm inclined to hold them longer, see how many trades I burn on injuries and cash flow etc.

    Would you consider ARey as a keeper or stepping stone??

    Hi guys,

    Would anyone like to look after my team while I am away overseas? It would be for rounds 11 through 13 (inclusive). Team currently in 75th place (I think) and to be honest Im not that fussed what you do with the team while Im away.

    Main motivation at this stage is to finish higher than Rabbit's best ever position as per his challenge to me a while back Smile

    If you care keen let me know.

    Cheers

    I'm thinking Fifi is a must have, with round 13 and no origin. It hurts, but the most logical move ATM is by jumping from Arrow, which I will do if he's got a 2-4 week injury on him. Points over the next 4 rounds are key, and he may even play origin screwing him over more. Will probably want him again after origin. The BE difference is also a nice side factor.

    My other trade would be Thompson to Capewell, moving Mitchell down for a week. Backs look flakey as (Ponga, Holmes & Mitchell, Hiku at centre), but have $300k ITB to upgrade Nicholls into a RTS/Rapana next week, moving Holmes back to EMG. I think Hiku is a hold, will probably run him in the centres until I have a spare trade.

    I was going to do Tohu>CS9 last week but thankfully everyone talked me out of it. If he misses a week that's 2 in next 4 so there's argument for getting Fifi or similar 13 gun

    What's the situation with the Panthers back 5? Is Tyrone Phillips there medium-long term?
