Looking at something like a Lussick > Watson and a Papenhuyzen > Drinkwater.

Watson provides some much needed flexibility over the bye period and some immediate cash gen. Allows me to get Drinkwater in as a Papenhuyzem replacement.

Armstrong just a casualty of the Paps injury. Team value is at 14.4m anyways.

Guys what's the thoughts on EKat with Hughes out for a few weeks? Does he score better or worse with Wishart next to him?

New to this discussion page. But I can't remember a year with so many big name long term(4+weeks) injuries. True the HIA rule isn't helping either. All of us are Running out of trades and boosts so fast. 17 rounds and I bet most have under 30
Seen this tweet a while back on NRL Physios take on the injury carnage, it also doesn't help with all the grappling that occurs during the tackles & players coming back early from injuries that haven't fully healed.

Personally i think worse. Blore will get fed by Munster, BUT come SOO time, Blore will go hungry but Ekat will have Hughes back. Bloody conundrum as to which one to get

Out: Bostock and Strange
In: Nanai and Young
Need a piece of the Cowboys but do not want to trade Turbo nor Walsh (who I acquired a few rounds ago) for Drinkwater. Alternative is Holmes but have currently selected Nanai to pair with Young.

Had a good week, hope to keep it up. Was planning on doing Lussick > JMK & DWZ > Young earlier in the week but I think my CTW is stacked enough and it might be time to focus on 2RF. If I was to downgrade DWZ to Armstrong, I would be able to upgrade Fermor & Smithies to Fifita & EKat. Not really worried about R13 numbers as I have a decent amount already and can bring in others later on if need be. Fifita would be a 6 week play, targeting his good upcoming draw before selling in R16 where he plays 1 of the next 4 games. EKat the same with a good draw and only misses 1 game till R19. Would have to boost & have worries about EKat not having Hughes for the next few weeks and how Fifita will play if he signs a contract with a new team. No other 2RFs stand out to me that aren't playing origin. Thoughts lads?

If you can afford Fifita, and have the trades to move him back out during Origin (or happy to hold him through) then I'd do it. Katoa probably the best 2RF that won't be Origin affected. Nikora is the other one I have my eye on.

I like Nanai as well, but he'll be Origin impacted.

Smithies > Mikaele & Brooks > Cleary

$38,600 in the bank. Cant wait to get Olakau'atu back next round. Galvin > Weekes is on the cards next round

Nice trades, just a quick question. Would you consider trading Lucas instead of Smithies, would give you more cash ITB and would not have to worry about his playing mins coming off the bench? Just a thought.

Thinking about it. Will probably have a look at Lucas this week off the bench and maybe upgrade next round if he doesnt get the minutes
