My season is already broken. 

I've had great success with all of my Sharks, not so much Dragons so will side with my boys in blue.

So take a 4th option and pick Herbert lol

I'm thinking of just waiting a week on the cheapies to see who looks the best. Less cash made but less risk you pick the biggest dud.

I was looking at this but probably need a double trade next week

Is shitbread a trade?

He should. Wallace and Arrow are bound to play for QLD.

Arrow is a certainty.

Mole Warning

Apparently they might play Su'A at dummy half for some of the game so that's a warning for anybody still stuck with Macca. It could be a complete load of shit but maybe it might happen, Mole is going to do that stupid KABOOOM and whatnot.

Burning two trades on the wrong cow can be the difference between finishing top 100 and top 1000

The pressure is on 


I already burned trades on Burns and Bird... probably also on Whitbread (keeping him till after round 12 and hoping he gets some more playtime in the mean time)

but 3 bad trades out of 12 isn't too bad.
My good trade ins so far (in chronological order):
Lawrie
Bateman 
Rein
Teddy
Twal
CHT
Ponga
Haas
Xerri

Cleary and CHT with Ponga as my only back-up. :/

That's better than most. Only thing I'd consider is Morgan scores better against weaker teams (Titans) so probably has a trick left. Otherwise I'd pull the trigger

for those looking at Lomax, he played 3 games at centre (round 25 and 2 finals) last season for scores of 29, 39 & 37

i think a little too much is being read into in that article, everyone is saying Jimmy is out, so Staggs would go to centre and Su'A would come in, could simply be that they are giving him reps at dummy half to try to get him up to speed for a worst-case scenario type of situation.

Much appreciated mate, I was just about to go looking for his Finals stats but you saved me the time and effort

Am off the waddell boat and on to the Dearden train.

Morgan  > teddy
Cnk> Dearden

Leave me

Cook
Fifita, Vaughan
Murray, arrow, Garner
Cht, carty
Rts, teddy, ponga
Mahoney, rein, haas, Lawrie
Xerri, sivo, mikalele, Dearden.

Halves the only weakness, but I have ponga. And 270k to do an upgrade

Any major issues? Next week will be Two of lawrie, Garner, cht depending on role changes. Bring in Taupau.

You need a couple Centres

Thoughts on SBurgess? Is he playing injured which have led to his recent mediocre scores? Wondering if I should trade him but not sure if that's considered sideways?

good point, I changed post to swap Xerri for cnk. Prefer that option, coverage and leaves enough money in bank to do a straight swap to a gun next week whether that be in halves or foreards

Well that's more reassuring.

Cheers for that. My trade in for sleepy sele

He plays the bye, hold until then at least. People will be looking at trading him this week, next etc.
