He has signed to UK Superleague for next year. Sharpe might have nabbed his spot

Would wait and see how bad the injury is. You have 2 weeks to watch before the money change comes in.

Then i read this fron Lakey,

Nothing else of note here except that Sam Hughes was reportedly rested during the round 15 game because of a heavy recent workload for the rookie and the Dogs substantial lead.

He’d been playing 38.4 minutes per game since round 5 and should return to that usage.

Maybe I hold Hughes and save the trade. Was going to nuff.

TU Nuff out Hughes

Do you need the money?
I was going to move him on but was advised against and took the advice. He is a number over origin. If you are ok with losing money on him sell, if not keep.

Can I just say F Joseph Suali’i. If he hadn’t got himself suspended then Latrell would be in my team. Didn’t trade him in due to the threat of Origin.

That Origin threat has grown after today unless madge has him blacklisted.
Fifita on the other hand is no chance of forcing Billy’s hand on todays form.

Didn’t help that Campbell came back inside almost every time and never gave him decent ball and in space. When he did, Fifita was only able to make a hitup.

Campbell should be 14 or out of the team. Kini or Brimson are better fullbacks so he shouldn’t take that spot.

Bradman Best returns next week. The spot is his to loose imo.

There’s so many good fullback options this year. Unfortunately it’s also the position I’ve chopped and changed the most due to injuries and origin. Who do we think from post origin we are gonna run home with?

It’s a lottery, post SOO we will see Turbo return, is Edwards still nursing an injury, Teddy and the chooks backline look scary, Latrell is playing with a point to prove atm but who knows post SOO plus he has just played Cows, Titans and Eels easy match ups..Drinky on his day is as good as any.

Another tough week end for me. 1030 C Drinks.

Switched out Hands for a non player B Smith and to the 82 from Henry (NPR).

Not terribly Happy about Smith but he may work and realistically only need a few rounds from him and he gets enough to not be an AE nightmare.

Did you have a full team this week? How’s your rd16/17 numbers looking? I think these mini bye weeks are an opportunity to make up rankings, or unfortunately loose them.

Round 15
 
The Magic Number for Round 15 is 9075, down significantly from 9518 for Round 14 making Break Evens much harder to attain.
 
To calculate a player’s Break Even (BE) use the following formula:-
 
BE = ((Player’s current salary ÷ magic number) x 3) – sum (last score + 2nd last score)
 
e.g. Hynes = ((984,100 ÷ 9518) x 3) – sum (3 + 114) = 208

Does anyone know how to contact the guy from the Supercoach Stat’s site. His latest Prices & Breakevens page seems to have updated BE’s but not price. I don’t use Facebook or Twitter. Cheers!

It’s a risky spot to have a nuff. I would TU that trade if your nuff or 5/8 is dual and can be covered if you needed.

Hear me out fellow coaches. To’o plays his next 2 post SOO games on a Sunday arvo at BBS (vs Cows and Phins juicy!!). He is averaging 107 ppg this year at BBS. Does he back up from SOO is the obvious question but I have Drinky at FB like lots of us do and he is not in my final 17 so i am thinking of pulling the trigger. Both Cows and Panther players don’t play rd16 or 19. To’o has a BE2 vs Drinky BE109 this week, plus Cows have an extra bye in rd25. Panthers play 6… Read more »

You are killing it this year so I think following your gut is the way to go. All I will say in regards to Too is that I like him way more without Edwards in the team as he only sticks to the right side in attack. It’s no coincidence Turuva was averaging the same as Too was until last week.

Don’t waste a trade yet. What if Too gets injured? or you have some other damage you need to fix in a week or 3. Trades are like gold now. Thats why I’m holding off on trades until I actually DO NEED them..mY 2 cents

You must be confident re r16 & r19. That is a lot of money not doing much in bye weeks where ladder moves can be made faster. If you are low on trades i’d be holding given you have 5 guns there already. Teams have a solid 20 odd players now so how much will he help in you in r15, r18 and r19? Those dollars spent elsewhere will get you extra points in the 2 major byes. And you can still get him in r20 Also, given your rank i don’t know if i’d be listening to me. good… Read more »
