Rein and Maloney were calculated risks. Those that brought them in did the research, made the call on how the scores fared when they were in previous, similar situations (Maloney as main half doing majority of kicking, Peats playing 80 or close to). I kept my expectations pretty realistic and jumped off both at the right time (potentially could've kept Maloney longer). Was extremely happy with the output and cash from them.

Farah will be mass traded in this round. He is probably the best value trade in you can make at the moment.

If you already have Cook,  Smith and McInnes, then you may as well make it the full house.

Presumably you have 1 DPP 2RF/FRF to provide cover there. Maybe you'll be leaving yourself open to danger if 2 of your forwards go down in the same week - its the risk you have to consider.

You CTR/WFB cover won't be in your 17 so is pretty much irrelevant.

So it sort of depends on who your HLF cover is and how happy you are to run with your team that way.

If Perrett goes to Penrith, grab Fainu and have 5 hookers.

Apparently at the beginning of the year Souths said they wouldn't stand in his way if he could play first grade for another club. So we will find out how true this statement is. Will they be true to their word or turn out to be lying hypocrites.

What are Perrets prospects at Penrith?

I hope Fainu gets the run, I took a punt bringing him in regardless.

Shit @ 351k I didn't realise how cheap he was. I've never really considered him but at that price why not.

Never thought about him and at his price it's tempting. Need a back ctr just in case.
