One last trade left, Do I hold or use the change to upgrade S.Lane to J.Nanai. Sounds juicy but would be my last trade. I’m ranked in the 9k’s so was just throwing a hail mary to get a some level of respectability – may well be too late for that so just greedy for any increase.

I would hold. Lane is a decent scorer. Hold for as long as you can.

Wedge

Thanks – I know my mind says that but the heart says otherwise so I appreciate teh grounding

Sharky Pete

Hold. Lane is okay and you’ll almost certainly need that trade for an injury

which 2 miss out this week?

Talaki & Gus

Rare panther

Advice please
Frf ipap, lolo, hass.
2rf tapine, a crighton, dfifita and femor as reserve.
Both crighton and Fifita have been very average, want to rage trade however know the upside they can give.
Can only trade one due to Cleary trade.
Tu: they’ll come good
Td: crighton or Fifita to murray
Comment other suggestions. Sold nanai ages ago, I hate buying them back.
Thanks

SD23

Crichton to Murray is an upgrade but I’d only do it if you have 5+ trades. Fifita I think will come good, his last 3 are Dragons, Knights and Warriors.

Rare panther

Good advice about Fifita. got 7 trades,
Thanks

DNA

I Also have Fifita and am holding but if they keep not giving him the ball he will keep not scoring. I don’t know why they insist on losing but they are good at it.

KBB

Taaffe on the bench making me question myself having Latrell as captain. Bunnies up by plenty with 20mins to go early shower for Latrell?

hasbeens

Had not noticed that, will look at taking the C off Trell as well, if the score is high early that would make sense unless someone else carrying an injury

LB13

I doubt Trell gets rested, they have a tough run and would want to get him match hardened and fit and raring to go.. just my opinion

D8

They also wouldn’t risk another injury if they’re up by 30

uncledami

Not after his shocker last week. He will be keen to make a statement and build his fitness imo

CoG

Doesnt worry me much. Sths need big wins, but wins will do.
Imo blake is backline/halves cover. Only concern would be Trell into ctw /Blake FB for a ctw hia.

LB13

Hi All, hoping to win my H2H comp and have somehow snuck into the 1,000 but should I do the following trades:

TU-Ming, May/Talaki/Mulitalo & Cleary out for Tapine, Murray & Nuff
TD- na, save em

This would leave me with 1 trade, but with decent depth. Thanks in advance.

moon the loon

can you just do the 2 trades and keep Ming, not the worst NPR to keep

LB13

I can but i won’t be able to get Murray or Tapine

Last reserve?

Talaki way overdue

HynesBeanie

Looking for high score ceilings on the run home

M King to Nanai
T May to Doueihi

Thoughts?

Shlapper

Certainly fit the bill as high ceiling chances. Both are also def upgrades.

uncledami

Agree. Doubt your playing King so I’d keep May. A try and he clearly outscores king

uncledami

Not saying AD is better but I’d flick Ming

Afro Monkey

4 trades left and wondering if I should boost to get Tapine and Nanai, team looks so good with both just means 1 trade left for the run home. Have decent depth, team would look;

Grant/*McInnes
Tapine/Papali’i-*Haas/Ming
Ola/Lane/Nanai-Lolo/nuff/nuff
Hynes/Madden
Munster/*Brown
Garrick/Manu/Holmes/To’o-Tago/Anderson/Jojo
Latrell/*Teddy

Go for it or just trade Cleary and May to Dearden and Tapine?

Walkers On

Thoughts on this week:
Cleary -> Dearden (Decent play on matchups)
May -> Doueihi

Next week:
Tass -> Murray

Walkers On

Last Reserve
TU: To’o
TD: Tago

H2H player, 8 Trades and i’m boosting this week. These trades leaves me with $300 ITB so it kinda seems written in the stars. Grant – Garlick Tapine, Haas – Ming, Momo IPap, Ola, Angus – Lolo, Tago, Hosking Cleary – Hynes Burton – Mam Manu, Holmes, Garrick, Too – May, Anderson, Harris Teddy – Latrell Cleary > Munster via Mam Burton > Douiehi (Tigers fan, i just know he will be involved in anything good we do. Not confident in Burton going forward) Tago > Nanai Mam,Ming,May all stay despite them being on my trade out targets but should… Read more »

Well done on having 8 Trades Mate…. love 1 and 3…. Burton to Douehi… will or should pay off nicely this week anyway

Benchy Marshall

Not 100% ideal but needed to fund the Nanai trade somehow. Hoping it will give me the edge this week, have the week off and then have my 5 trades for the final two matchups if all goes to plan.

Temple Guard

Main thing is You feel Happy with the choices… can’t see much wrong with it…. now if you said DFif, Calker Latrell or Gutho… I would not feel comfortable with them in my Team… but they do shine sometimes

BxnB

I feel comfortable with Latrell in my team but agree with the others

boink

My team looks ok on paper but I’ve just snuck into top8 in my comp and I’m 8 overall on my comp

Hk: Grant, McInnes
Frf: tapine, haas, lolo, fpole
2rf: nanai, ipapi, Crichton, matterson,

Flb: lattrell, teddy

7 trades 300k

What’s wrong with my team? Where did it go wrong? What’s a priority for me?

Benchy Marshall

Main priority for me would be upgrading that CTW and especially in H2H finals, a ctw with a great matchup could go huge. Every other area is strong, the penrith boys now might score less without Cleary so potentially May is someone you could be looking to upgrade. Manu might be out of reach, Doueihi is a good pick, someone like Nofo i think is a good pod option as well.

boink

Thx! I think I may have been too tight with my trades and left the run too late. I faded manu and was worried about the difficult run til finals. Agree with may and tago with cleary gone now

Temple Guard

Looks great… I do understand your head scratching… Manu is probably the one that hurt you is my guess

Sharky Pete

Doueihi, Tedesco or Murray to replace Cleary. How good are DPPs?

D8

Doueihi – simple reason massive POD

Not liking Teddy’s run home Broncos, Cowboys, Tigers, Storm and Rabbitohs

Teddys 2022 AVGs vs top 8 and bottom 8 teams:

  • Top 8 – 71 points with 3 of 11 games over 80
  • Bottom 8 – 91 with 4 of 7 games over 80

DCE2011

Teddy is a proven performer though. Doueihi might be a POD, but he plays Sharks and Roosters (both strong defensively) after this round.

D8

In 2022 the only thing Teddy has proven is that he can beat up on weaker teams, with Rooster playing 4 of 5 rounds vs top 8 teams, Teddy is set to AVG in the 70s for the rest of the season!

Doueihi’s 3 round AVG vs Panthers, Cowboys (the 2 best defensive teams of 2022) and Broncos (the 6th best defensive record) is 86.7! The next 3 of 5 games is against bottom 8 teams with Dragons being on GF week who boast the 4th worst defensive record in 2022!

Teddy over Doueihi is a mistake

DCE2011

You might be right. Personally, I think both Roosters and Teddy are building towards the finals. Each to their own (I like consistent 70s). 😉

See I’m opposite, I don’t think Roosters make the finals, their 3 game winning streak is against a depleted Sea Eagles where they just won, Knights and Dragons. I think with their draw Roosters drop from the 8 and Raiders claim 8th spot! Raiders are only 2 points behind Roosters with Raiders only playing 1 of 5 games vs top 8 teams

Baz11

My team is currently

Grant/McInnes
Haas, Papalii, Pole, Molo
Matterson, Crichton, Talakai, Lolo, Koloamatangi, Rushton
Cleary, Hynes
Munster, Mam
Manu, Garrick, Too, Tago, Ronaldo, Anderson, Fifita
Tedesco, Holmes

Cleary Out Doueihi in is one trade.

Other trade
TU: Tago to Nanai
TD: Crichton to Olakuatu
Comment: Mam to Hughes

Temple Guard

How many trades left Baz?

Baz11

5

Temple Guard

TU than….TD seems way too sideways

eldinko

is it a waste of a trade to nuff Burbo?

I have five trades left and am hoping to win this week in my cash comp and then have a week off before the finals. That would give me the ability to make two trades on each of the last two weeks of the finals

BxnB

Not a waste if you have no one else of more value to nuff. You have 5 trades so that gives you some breathing room. Depends who you’re getting too.

muddy

Nuff him if you win this week

Evil_Team

Play your VC in the first 2 games. If you are going to loop nuff Burbo. If not save the trade for another day.
