I’d for sure bring in Xerri for Brown. He is a must have

Agree that Xerri is a must....but is Brown more valuable than Okonbor? Okonbor has a BE of 25 and completely stunk it up the past 2 rounds...

Last week and this week are presenting opportunities to catch up to the top.
People ranked high due to Farah and RTS will be slipping a bit. Just need DCE to pump out a low score and good rank movement can happen

Brown will be scoring 0 this week, and every week for the foreseeable future.

Okunbur has a chance to bang our another 50+

What are people's thoughts on the Rein Train. I got him because of his record with 80 minutes and was intent on keeping him for R12 but with his poor score last week his money making slows down. Now I'm thinking he should make way for Farah once he bottoms out, but is the R12 numbers more important

True, it's that vs. the potential points gain of having Brown as a loop. Ah, I'm sure I'll have plenty more injuries to come. Goodbye Drown.

Depends on when Farah bottoms out. If it's like 2-3 weeks before Round 12, might as well hold Rein. Farah probably won't outscore Rein so much in that time period as to make his contribution in Round 12 irrelevant.

Thanks for the advice guys, seems like I need to generate more cash.

I don't think I'll be trading Vaughan out though, I quite like him as a player and is averaging over 50. 

Will make 1 trade this week geared towards generating cash and bank the other trade I think. 

Bird/Hughes/Morgan are on the chopping block next week, although Morgan plays R12, so might like to keep him.

The way I look at it, he's the 2nd highest averaging hooker (behind Mahoney) who plays rd 12. If you can hold him until then, I would, but probably not at the cost of not getting a bottomed out Farah in a few weeks...

I'd be surprised if Morgan didn't make the QLD side somewhere...

So bloody torn on Whitbread, seems a good player but who knows if he keeps his spot

I'm an idiot.

Thanks

Thinking about putting Bird in as my replacement centre over Xerri, no idea why really. Just a gut feel.

Getting rid of rein after 1 lower score in a massive win would be reckless IMO

I think I'm going to miss the whitbread bandwagon sadly. hoping he's more host than lawrie/burr

I have both Keighran and Sele hanging around. One is becoming Xerri. Other can't become a gun, so it's either find a cow (best case Lomax does get a start, but not betting on that) or hold a trade.

Only real way to get Cleary in is Garner or Morgan out, but  might be better holding trade.

Im eyeing Garner to Cleary. Ive traded/reveresed heaps of times though. Not sure if it'll stick. It does mean I get Chanel out of my 13. Hmmmm

What do people think Farah will average long term?
Last year he averaged 57. This year before injury was almost 70.
He'll likely slip from the 70 average, but by how much?

Even with price drops will be a hefty step up from Rein

Lawrie v Garner for trade out ?

Gardner a better player for fantasy but Lawrie dpp and I get to watch him play today.

Pushing 60 and I'm not talking about his age. Plenty of tackles, a few kick metres, can rack up an assist or two and he loves going for a run.

Same dilemma for me. Don’t want to trade Garner but Cleary is a keeper which means I’m not playing CHT/Carty roulette each week. Think I’ll do it.

I wasnt planning on trading Garner but with RTS out, CNK in doubt and Carty supposedly leaving training early i need some backline cover. Best I can do is Wighton. He seems to be travelling ok but i haven't been watching him closely. Any Wighton owners out there? Seems to be doing alot of the kicking?
Also means i can go Rava to Ogden who seems to have better js that Whitbread.
These trades dont really make my team stronger in terms of points scoring but does give me two more rd 12 players
