Depth will be tested with Api an out this round, Sharpe in the reserves, Pahulu on the bench and Ford currently listed on the bench. Hopefully Marzhew pulls up fine as well. Went aggressive in the byes to ideally have enough coverage in those rounds to compensate for a round like this, so hopefully it is not too bad. With the amount of trades left and Brailey starting on the bench, I feel it is best to trade him and hope that Koroisau returns soon as expected. Watson seems the best option as long as I can cover his bye. As for the Aitken replacement it is either A Johnston/ I Tago (with Cleary returning). Do not have the luxury anymore to select a loophole and have not looked to see if there are any playing basement priced options. Complicates the matter with Sharpe at FB2, so likely to move Garrick/Campbell down there next prior to the Tedesco bye.

Roosters bye in RD23, so hopefully three rounds is enough for Api to then cover the absence of Watson, if I opt for him over Grant this round.

That is what I have done based on the same logic. I have a trade or two up my sleeve but don't want to have to waste it in that circumstance. The fact Korosiau is named at 22 this week is a good sign he will be back in 4 rounds time, surely.

Sounds like Api (barring any setback) will be back next week, or at most the week after so you should be good.

Could trade out Sharpe, move Campbell down to FLB and grab Burton. You could even get rid off Brown and go early on Cleary. Thinking of doing Brown to Burton myself, Panthers, Roosters, Storm & Broncos in the next 5 🤮

Thanks!

I'm thinking it's either

1. Brown> Burton, sharpe > turbo
2. Sharpe>Burton and continue to reaccess fullback with Campbell as a place holder (pending his performances)

Sucks that nsw get suspensions and qld got fines...all from a melee that was created by lax refereeing and billy's instruction to qld to go out there and niggle 'billy style' . Well the niggle backfired and nsw beat the grubs at their home in front of thousands of rabid fans. Was soooo quiet during the presentations.

Looking at your team, I would say no. Getting rid of Sharpe for a better 2nd fullback has to be priority number one. Trade out Marzhew as well, and get Turbo. Then someone underpriced like Tago to bring into CTW.

I think I'm tempted to do sharpe > burton this week and move JC to fullback.

I'll see if there's anything else to do.

Thanks!
