Dylan Walker to Sean O'Sullivan locked in for this week

Bastard! 983 for me

Up to 24.. thousandth.. Fuck I'm bad at this.

Latrell the prick.. Expecting about a 44 average from him now that I'm back on. Could've gone 50+ if they gave him the assist, but I guess they saw I picked him back up

Throw CNK onto the prick list too. At least a tonne of people sold him too I guess.


I've gone DWalker to SJ with 20k to spare

Probably go JFH to Twal, but might have to rethink things. Could go for like Tevaga or something. Spending the bank on SJ might make it hard to get Jake now, especially with Xerri bleeding cash.. but uhh, only 30k difference in price between Xerri and Jake Hopefully Xerri doesn't lose too much more this week.

Never thought I'd be hoping for Sims to escape a ban. Getting Klemmer for the bye would be awesome.. Could end up with 15 now if Klem, Matts, Latrell and Haas are all available.

Dylan Walker out. SOS in.

SST out and Mitchell/Matto in

Only locked in DWalker to SJ so far. $20,700 and 7 trades left.

Tossing up whether to trade SST or JFH now. Starting to lean SST out since JFH is at least fit.

Twal's been the target for some time, but Tevaga emerging as a possibility now. Won't be in the 17 after this week unless still LK and some players rested.

Tevaga adds an extra 84k to the bank and with Xerri's BE now 153, he's gonna lose anywhere from a fair bit to a metric fuckton.

So many C and VC options this week. Cam, Matterson, Latrell, RTS, Haas..

I've taken a punt on VC Latrell and C Haas. RTS as VC against a severely weakened Knights team is very tempting though. RTS and Haas have my highest averages with 72

Does anyone know how to work out price changes using BEs? EG, how much will Xerri lose if he scores 50, instead of his BE of 153? I need players this round, but he might be too expensive one to keep

I just make rough guesses.. 100 points below BE I'd expect a loss of 65-80k. I usually calculate based on the least favourable result for me.

It's a bit less than $1k per point above or below a player's BE, but SC has thrown up a couple of surprises and I'm still getting used to it. Bye rounds also seem somewhat volatile.

I'm hoping Xerri can go somewhere in the neighbourhood of 80-100 vs. Broncos rookie halves and backs, could be severely disappointed, but Sharks are only missing Fifita and Wade (been without him a lot anyway) while Broncs are Boyd, Coates, Staggs, Shibasaki, Herbie, Turpin and O'Sullivan.

Not a lot of games between those guys vs. Townsend and SJ running the show. A witch's hat would be more of a defensive threat than Boyd.

Thanks, for this info. I thought Xerri might go well too, but 153 is too much to expect, I guess. I'm trying to plan for the next few weeks.

I'm running out of trades, took a punt on pappy last week expecting him to start, which may or may not happen tonight.

I was thinking about trading in MciInnes this week as a POD, but it will mean I won't be able to trade in munster in 2 weeks.

So would i prefer McInnes with 1 extra week, ples potentially another start next week where Munster isn't playing, or take the higher ceeling of munster.

Have brittian in the other spot, and i suspect cook may get a rest after origin...


hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I'll be keeping Xerri, not worth burning the trade.

I decided to keep Xerri too. I'm trading Latrell into my team, but not sure what else to do.
I'm also hoping for a Pappy miracle! McInnes BE is 101, which I think might be difficult against the Storm, but I might be biased! If you're short on trades, think who you'd rather have in your team for the run home.

I've decided on Walker to SJ and SST to Twal.

Leaves 6 trades and $68,800 in the bank.

Goal is to turn Xerri into Jake Trb and Staggs back down to CTW. Only 30k difference in price this week, but Xerri's set to lose a bunch.

Can dump Aekins for another 80k in the bank next week, which leaves room for Xerri to lose up to 120k in some absolute disaster this week.

If that happens, then max cashout Xerri and upgrade Staggs to Jake.

Hopefully Xerri murders it though I can afford it in one trade still

Captain Latrell, SJ or someone else? I'm thinking Latrell, but not sure why
LOL, I chickened out and went for SJ! That will teach me to trust myself.

VC was on latrell. Definitely looping that score

Yeah I VC'd Latrell too, already threw the C on Klemmer before the game ended haha.

Wouldn't have risk captaining him straight up though Hannah. I didn't see your post until lockout already hit.

Well the DWalker to SJ trade a few hours ago was a waste.. a few people captained him though. Hope you got cold feet and changed Hannah?

12/769... Copped Manu, SOS and SJ.. rough.

13 for me.. fkn SST. Ended up with 881, so hopefully can climb some ranks.

Manu was an unlucky one for you. Hopefully right for next week.

Can't believe O'Sullivan didn't pull off a big play in the 1st, was probing every set it seemed. Gutted when he didn't return.

Thought Coates was gonna go well too with that 2nd try, but denied.. then went backwards.

SJ the real disappointment. Cost a trade and 114k for 17 points.. Will need him next week for Ponga, so hopefully outscores DWalker..

833 for me. Ramien, Manu, Watson, Johnson not good. Aitken, Staggs, Nikora not much better. Lot of scores from 17 to 44.

Walking a tight rope next round. SOS, Cleary, Ponga and SJ halves .. hoping SJ is named and Cleary is fit. Not expecting ponga to play

Oh shit. Cleary listed as returning Rd 17, so hopefully makes it back.

Hammie a bit of a worry for SOS, often ends up being 1-2 weeks.

SJ should be alright unless he fakes an injury sulking over being hooked haha. Might be able to get a decent 40 odd emergency from a To'o or Staggs if both HBs are out.

978/13 in the end.

Latrell, TPJ, Matterson, Haas and Maumalo leading the way. I was conservative and took Smith's VC score instead of risking Haas which obviously was the difference between my 978 and 1000+. This round i should have enough cash to get Burns (as backup) and Tommy Turbo. I think my ranking will go up from 995th but probably not by too much.

783. Moved up 300 odd spots. 3.4k rank. 10 trades left, time for a few pods to try crack into top 1k.
