Lamb's scores have been complete dog $hit though, other than last week. He has basically played 80 the last 4 games.

I would never start him, and his ability to make cash is a bit dubious, especially given he could be dropped any week.

I'm paying extra for Watson, at least he is a good player.

I was thinking the same as you, but you're missing the key here. Lamb played beside Pearce at the start of the year, second fiddle. Last game he did basically 100% of the kicking with no Pearce in the team. Take away kicking, the dude is a 20-30 point player. Add Goal kicking and general kicking, boom, 40+.

NRL.com late mail saying Buhrer could possibly be a late inclusion. Dunno if there is any merit to that.

Cmon man!

If people are gonna say a player is shit without looking at relevant stats then they deserve to miss out.

Stop being so helpful

Cowboys Jason Taumalolo picked up ankle injury last week in his 2nd or 3rd hit up after Russell Packer sat on ankle, played game out with it but has had same injury before so will just need to manage the injury

I'm down to 16 if RFM is out but I don't want to trade him or anyone else in my team. I'd rather bring in DCE (Maloney) and Lolo (Rein).

Anyone else in a simlar position?

One of my trades is locked in

The other... do I upgrade (round 13 gun) or do I jump on Lamb to make $150k.....

I've traded/reversed about 100 times

Kontoni Staggs looks set to make his debut for the broncos tomorrow night

Who should I be looking to trade in this week between Harris and R Martin? It’s for Sorenson

Harris for scores. He is possibly the cheapest keeper forward at the moment (Gallen in a week or 2 is the only other one who might compete)

Martin if you want cash.

Cheers cow. I think I’m wasting trades as it is I might just go straight to Harris

Harris will be a prime target in round 14.

I will have 17 if he is out with Griffin or Isaako to come in but I don't really want to trade him either. Went Maloney to Reynolds and Rein to Crichton personally.

Im thinking its time to get a 17 together personally. Feel like trades are getting burnt quickly too.

Hoping some of these debutants produce the goods this weekend. Need a few decent cash out options going forward. Plan for next two weeks, Milk cows upgrade mid rangers to keepers. Simples.

Trades done, I think..
BBQ and Rein out. Lamb and Lolo in.
Captain Cook for me this week

Martin or Lamb the better option for Sorensen (will have to play whichever choice with Smith out)

I'm 90% sure I'm going with captain Ponga. Could be stupid

I'm in the same position. I want the scores of 2 guns this week but I know I'll need the cash from Lamb later...
