Reversed Murray>Harris now going to sit tight with no trades.

How's this bench look lads?

Kikau, Murray, WGraham, Matterson

Cook, Martin, Fonua, Brimson.

Taking a punt on Tuala over Fonua in the 17.

Assuming you are using Matterson for the free look at Cook. Who comes in if he scores a 30 odd?

Yup that's probably what I'd do. Assuming you;ve got your starting 13 right!

Martin I would have thought.

I think Matterson is a trade in NRLF. He's young and this concussion is clearly pretty bad. Could be done for the season if they want to be really careful with him. Regardless, holding him for 3 weeks at his price when you can basically bring in anyone? Unless you are out of trades I don't see why you would hold him personally...

If Cook goes low I'll lock in Matterson > McInnes over playing Martin.

Matterson worries me now.

Holding Matterson lets me sell Gosi and retain a looper. I'm thinking of promoting Doueihi to interchange and put Cook first loop in EMG. Was never selling Murray this week. CT and Gosi>CS9 and Olive +299k itb same trades as planned since last week

I’ve sold him but the reason for the extended break is wrist surgery, not concussion, as I understand it.

Do these trades make sense?

Matterson > McInnes
Watson > Cleary??

Or hold onto Watson for a bit, but salty I've had to consider him a trade.

May well be. Hard to tell with different people saying different things. Hopefully you are right! Concussions are nasty.

Last week's trade out of Cook appears to be paying off so far, just hope I'll be able to get him back again. Murray starting means I'm reversing that trade. So just the one trade, Dugan -> Smith this week. Might captain him too, but also thinking Marty again.

Having both Crichton and Cook is doing my head in. I think Angus should play at least 50 but Cook might only play 30 thinking about it now. Its a shame Crichton isn't starting last year it was the Titans that he got his 121 or whatever it was.

I actually wouldnt be surprised to see farah get plenty of game time over the origin period and they manage Cook through his first origin series.

This keeps Cook fresh and keeps poor Farah happy that he is getting some last game time in 1st grade

Im thinking this too. Im tempted to trade him to McInnes.

The word is Cordner won't back up & either Radley or Aubs will start in the 2fr.

I think we might see David Fifita debut this weekend for the Broncos. Didn't get named in Q CUP, though Mago did.

Thoughts on best half to bring in for Matterson??

SJ and Cleary my main candidates.
