Yeah, I have 2 different players in my 17 and 2 more in my 18-21. A lot of teams are merging with the same trade-ins.

It has been like that all year. I am in about 5 leagues and just about all of my games so far have been against teams with maybe 3-4 different players at most.

I started with a pretty different team and even mine only has 2 different than mentioned earlier.
Basically instead of Tolman Fifita I have Smith Capewell

But that is on the site, in the wild it looks a little different

At last I get a decent score. Finished on 975 & up to overall rank of 506 from 2,548.
I'm getting a bit tired of L. Lewis even though I got him last week. He's gone from being the dominant half kicking over 400m per game to Cogger now looking like being the dominant half & doing more kicking therefore taking km's from Lewis. Lewis over the last 2 weeks is not scoring the extra 10-15 points I'm expecting from him. I will keep him but I'm hoping the situation changes. I need a decent 3rd wfb this week so I don't have to play 1 of Rava or Sivo (selling J. Bird) but I'm limited to these options. Which one do you like:
(a) J. Hughes or (b) C. Walker or (c) Gutherson

Thoughts & thanks.

Prob (a) - (c) - (b) in that order.

If there was an option d. Hold the trade. I’d go with that

Have gone Bird & Kahu > Haas & CHT. Originally wanted to go Haas & Ponga but think i'll go after the cash and grab Ponga next week.

$381k ITB

Round 6 team

Cook (c)
Haas | Twal
Arrow | Garner | Murray
Munster | DCE
Xerri | Nikora
Garrick | Sivo | CNK

Rein
Bateman
Burr
Fifi (loop)
------------
CHT
Okkie
Flegler
Brown

Aiming for 2 gun WFB next week to balance out the team.

BEs

Hey lads, ive cracked the top 10,000!! Celebrations are in order.

Thinking of going Edwards/Ravalawa to Haas/Wighton. I can afford Ponga but i think at this stage i need to prioritise Rd12 and Wightons looking good.

Can always get Ponga next week if need be.

Thoughts?

Also after those trades my team consists of:

3 Broncos
4 Sharks
3 Raiders
3 Titans
2 Eels

Over half my team is very concentrated

whats a solid amount of players to have play round 12?

Any word on Blake Green?

Consider how much more Ponga will score than Wighton for the rest of the season and then subtract whatever you expect Wighton to make for you in round 12, it'll be a positive number for sure.

Thinking about captaining Ponga.  Not sure but I think he normally likes to tear up the GC.

Hey mate, just been thinking this one over and you are 100%.
Just means Bird goes instead of Rava. Had a look at Ravas BE and he has a bit more left in him.

Anyone keeping an eye on Kapow? AFB and Sironen are looking at Suspensions this week. He could see some extra minutes over the next couple weeks and his price has dropped to 770k. Could be a good pick up if his price keeps dropping

Yeah nah ?

Dont trust him under Des?

Scored 77 at Cbus last year mate with a try.

Like every year there isn't any answer to this. It's much more important WHO you have for the bye rounds; round 12 players you can get into your team without breaking the team in the process. Bateman, Taupau and Surgess appear to be necessary for a strong round 12 at this stage. CNK, Murray and Tolman look like possible season keepers as well. Rein & Mahoney look like good round 12 options, supposing you already have them.

Welshy wrote:@archer what’s the avatar mate?

in news for you also, early trades looking like

McCullough-Twal
Edwards - Rapa/CNK

Tough choice but has to be the Clock i think this year i think if you are tossing up between the two. Rapa just looks like he might struggle to get the same amount of ball with Bateman, CNK and even sometimes Wighton getting their hands to the ball first.

@Welshy here you go then, this should suit you.

Since the big man got off the mark this week:

Really tricky to decide trades once again this week. Torn between bringing in POD's I'd planned to bring in vs shoring up my weaknesses with the RTS/Teddy/Ponga's of the world

I know Sirro gets off with an early guilty plea and I am sure AFB is the same.
