1387 last week and have finally cracked the goal of top 1000 (by 2 pts!), very happy with my trade ins of Jazz and To'o.

Smith Api
Papi Carro Taupau Kerr
Matto Bateman Mcinnes Jazz Fermor Nuff
Cleary Gwilliams
Munster SJ
Nofo Lomax Sauce To'o Yeo Williame Nuff
Teddy Ponga


First trade this week is Taupau to Haas, I have way overstocked on FRF but I just don't see that I can run without him, unfortunately means I need to do a second trade as I don't have any cash and very torn on it.

I think Yeo is a hold for this week at least as I have 4 playable CTW
Pretty much giving up on SJ, once he starts hammy issues hes a total gamble even if he was named next week, same sequence happened to him last year but not really sold on anyone to replace him, Brimson maybe but I'm $3k short, Moses without Brown?, DCE with easy run and goal kicking?

The other option is to just nuff Kerr and I am then only running Fermor and Gwilliams as an AE so have a good look at VC loop, VC cleary C Teddy which leaves me $113k ITB and 3 trades for injuries which is risky when it means I am already carrying 2 injuries with possible indefinite time-frames.

SJ out to DCE is probably where I am leaning.

I think you're a bit hard done by with Sivo. It's that same with Fergo, two of the best wingers in the NRL, and no ball. They'll be lucky if they beat the Warriors if the ball isn't passed out past the centre's.

I hope Sivo gets more ball. They do so well when he does.
with Brown out Moses takes a dominant half role like most of last year and gutho will get ball to Sivo, cant do it this round but Sivo still a consideration for me last 2 rounds v broncos and tigers

I think DCE is a top pick for the run home. Great job making top 1000. 👍

Good luck all for RD17

Cheers, I ended up going the DCE option, against my judgement I played Api last night which was super disappointing. If I want to play DCE someone out of CS9, Big Papi, Mcinnes and Ponga needs to sit out, as odd as it sounds McInnes maybe.

Only 3 trades left so thinking 2 of....

Ponga > Papy
Pearce > DCE
Papalii > Klemmer
Bsmith > THarris/Jurbo/Tino

I'm leaning towards Papy and DCE for their ceilings, but Tino has hit 100+ also

Any thoughts?

👍 You got your wish for this next round with Papi and Ponga out. What are your thoughts about captaining DCE?

Papa might be ok but dont think ill play him, both my duals are already in FRF so I cant do much with Papa for the moment though. I'm gonna stop messing around and leave the C on Teddy from here I think, but i am seriously considering the VC on DCE especially if Cust is still out and Schuster starts again, that the first time I've seen DCE play both sides so much, totally dominant especially in the first half, that said dogs have a habit of holding sides up a bit so i couldnt go the straight C I don't think, but that said i am defending my rank not attacking.

Holey moley some big scores this week!

1503 for me this week with C on cleary. Gets me up to rank 752 so I'm risks free to hold top 1000 I think.

CS9, Api
Haas, Carro, Papa, Kerr
Bateman, Matto, Mcinnes, Jazz, Fermor, Nuff
Cleary, DCE
Munster, Gwilliams
Nofo, Lomax, To'o, Sauce, Yeo, Williame, Nuff
Teddy, Ponga

Would still like Brimson for Gwilliams but that takes 2 trades and with only 3 left I think I want to bank at least one this week. Had planned to look at Nofo or Lomax to probably Staggs as their draws get tough but not sure I could bring myself to trade out either regardless of opposition.

Lesson learnt last week I have to have some piece of Teddy as either VC or C from here, not got the confidence to C CS9 or Munster so early VC of DCE or maybe Cleary and C teddy (especially if Ponga is rested)

Feeling ultra conservative at the moment, may start thinking a little more agressively once TLT comes out, no Players against the Broncos seems a but wrong.

I am really wary to use my last 3 trades, I see some significant resting players in these next 2 rounds. There are a few top 8 teams that are out of the race for minor premiership, top 4 etc that kind of fit the profile. Ponga, Teddy, Cook, Papa, SST, Sauce, Mann are all in that group. Ponga's it seems is doing it and I just have this feeling Teddy definately rests this week or next as they pretty much have top 4, I think I need my last 3 trades to negotiate that.

I'm considering Ponga to Brimson but only if I can move Brimson to 5/8 and get Ponga next week with Dragons & titans last 2 games he could go bang yet again, to do this means I am out of trades next week, I think I want 1 for rd 20. If you plan to ride Papi home thats a decent call as he's had a rest already.

Pearce looks done for mine, DCE was the goods last week but alot of that was due to a rookie 5/8, Turbo could be back next week which will effect him a lot and Garrick even could be back to take the kicking, it has its risks but hes a one man team at the moment with weakish opposition I certainly plan to play him in all 3 remaining games especially if no Turbo.

Yea Papa > Klemmer isn't on the cards for me Klem could even be rested during games if Dfaf back as expected, Papa just going to be cover for me at least for the moment as even if he plays I can see him been managed, FRF isn't worth a trade for me at the moment.

I think both Tohu and Jurbo's time has passed, Tino can find a try and he could hold the 13 by the looks, but BSmith probably the best trade out or is he due back before rd20?

Nice score👍
What's your thinking with the following trades.
Bsmith > Tino
SCrichton > Staggs

I would then leave Papa on the bench but put the Rs on Yeo and Funa

McInnes, CS9*
Haas, Carrigan (Papa, Musgrove)
Matto, Bateman, Tino (Yeo*, BSironen, nuff)
Cleary (Pearce)
A Brimson, Munster*
Nofo, Mansour, BMoz, Staggs (Funa*, Fidow, Williame)
Teddy (Ponga)

I know Scrichton has been off the boil but has Cows and Broncos to finish and probably wont rest, Mansour I can see having one of those weeks off but that's just a guess. I'm reluctanty passing on Staggs, I owned him earlier when he suspended then injured and its a luxury trade I think i can't afford to do that with a lot of resting coming up. Tino will be good this week but it's risky, Welch back next week and Finucane cant be too far off I'm guessing, perhaps you could get a piece of Staggs right side action by getting Dfifi for Bsmith? ideally in one trade? Or at worst you already have 5 top CTW if you can move Yeo down by cashing out Funa with Nuff 2RF/CTW?

Thanks. I like the options. And the info helps.

I don't mind Pearce to DCE even though you mentioned Cust coming back in. DCE Ave the next three games might hold 70+.
Also I can still do Bsmith to DFif, and the team looks better for having them both.

Papa stays out, and I'll put the R's on McInnes, Yeo, Cleary, Munster, with VC going on DCE (POD VC perhaps, as they are playing the Dogs) , and C on Teddy again.

We'll that's my thinking atm. I'm sure it'll change again 🤔😂

DCE is still a good grab, everything goes through him and if Cleary rests next week hes a very solid gap filler. I hope raiders rest Papa, forces some to sell him and freshens him up to become a playable option next week again, don't worry I am changing my mind every 5 mins too lol!
