Happy Magic Round all.

Fitzy

Same to you mate. Love the banner!

Magpies4Eva007

Cruel …. just plain CRUEL!

Shlapper

I am of the opinion the weather will mean the turbo intake will fail this week, mainly due to weather and will be death riding him so I did sort of smirk and grin in a happy way at the Banner – thanks Wenin!

AJW

No – why’d ya do it??? Poor Tommy’s got to break through the Brisbane defence, the rain, AND the banner curse this week to score! Still sticking with him and getting Garrick next week! Let’s not be superstitious! 😉

Trade-a-holic

The Banner confirms my decision to wait a little longer to bring Turbo into my team. Not that I am superstitious (he said touching wood).

Bunnnys56

Magic round + lots of rain = points disappearing.
What are your thoughts?

AJW

And Turbo tons up! 🙂

Shlapper

An anagram (can’t say palindrome as that is incorrect, maybe make up a new term something like ‘palingram’?) of ‘tons’ is ‘snot’ – possibly indicative of the wet run for Turbo this week 🙂

BT

Noooooooooo! This hurts on 2 levels

Trav80

Banner confirms that going Olakau’atu over Turbo was the right choice this week… thanks Banner…

Bulldogs: Avarillo OUT (18), Naden (centre), Okunbur IN (wing)
Knights: 1-17, Sasagi (18)

Fitzy

Thanks!

Shlapper

Why the hell would you put big Ok’s on the wing? Possible genius move?

Shlapper

Nevermind looks like was simply a typo from the NRL setup. Oku is back in normal position.

Although (as an owner) I was actually thinking this could be genius in the wet HAHA.

Hoffa

Had a pretty shocking year but here is my team with 19 trades left(I know) and no boosts left(Iknow)

$297kitb

Grant, Cook
Haas, Ipap, Lolo, Ming
Yeo, Talakai, Cotter, Tago, Tulagi, HarrisNuff
Cleary, Taaffe
Munster, TMM
Garrick, May, Staggs, Tuip, Koula, Tass, Vailea
Hynes, Suaali

Will probably hold trades now until round 13 and target the likes of Tohu, Aitken, Pangai

tofu yarris

Duuuude give your trades to someone so you stop using them!

P.S great team

P.P.S we have 23 of the same players!

I’m with Tofu here, you’re done for the time being. Hold trades, sit back and relax 🙂

Love the team, I have 19 of the same players (and 21 trades and 1 boost left). Not my year.

P.S. I would love some of anyone’s trades and boosts. Every single year (for over 10 years) same thing I use up trades too quick.

Haha yeah. Might need an intervention

The Duke

I’ve got 22 trades and one boost left. As my original boost of Randall (to Grant) isn’t going to lose money and I have 700k in the bank, I’m waiting for a single trade next week.

Hoffa

I swear this it. I’m holding for a while. I mean, unless a good cheapy comes along.

kegs kings

Sounds like me when I say I’ll have 1 more

Sally M

Titans and Dragons squad reductions and changes

Titans: still 1-17, Thompson & Jolliffe in reserves
Dragons: McCullough OUT, Sullivan (hooker), Gosiewski IN (bench), Ramsey & Sloan in reserves

mattygee23

is Radley to Cotter a decent trade? Haven’t been happy with radley plus high BE.
TU: Yes
TD: No

tofu yarris

its not bad, both a slim chance at origin. not sure if either player will be in your team after round 18 though? can you get to a keeper?

Shlapper

Both around $500k as Tofu has said any chance you can stretch to get a keeper or someone like Lolo who looks much better and will play r13.

mattygee23

I do already have lolo. Any other suggestions?

mattygee23

Any suggestions?

tofu yarris

olakuato?

mattygee23

I can have a look, does he play 13?

Trade-a-holic

Yes

Shlapper

As above (and yes plays 13)

Phil

Thinking of reversing Cotter lol & bringing in Wishart for cash & reasoning he might end up scoring around the same with some potential upside at FB for the Storm. Thinking both aren’t season long keepers so may as well go for cash.

TU: Wishart at HOK (Tevaga 2RF) >700K ITB
TD: Cotter (in at 2RF) >350K ITB

Comment: probably will play whoever I bring in.

Hi Mods. Still an issue with the site being unable to view different threads UNLESS logged in. Without log-in there is no thread at all for R10 News and scores and nothing shows up on Trade Talk thread. Just for your information.

eldinko

I have just brought in Munster, but now I hear rumours of him maybe going to fullback, if he goes to fullback will that reduce his output?

should I reverse my trade and bring in Drinkwater instead? he does play 13

TU – Munster will be fine at FB
TD – welcome to the team Drinky

The Duke

He’ll probably be like Lockyer was before he converted full time to five-eighth, he’ll be fullback in the offensive line but one of the wingers will drop back for the kick returns.

weebs

Wishart has been moved to fullback in team lists

Sally M

Sea Eagles: 1-17, Harper (18)
Broncos: 1-17, Lee (18)

mystery_man

Who to trade to bring in turbo
TU penisi
TD staggs

Thanks guys

Y2Berts

This is my team any help would be great.

Grant Randall
Haas lolo mking momoisea
Tago aitken Talakai olak tuilagi jones
Cleary hynes
Walker ilias
Coates may hiku penesini tupou koula Tass
Papy taafe

Thinking papy to Garrick or turbo obviously
And hold my 2nd trade or do I go penesini to Burbo?

Trade-a-holic

I would be trading Jones or Tuilagi to Burbo (prob in that order) before Penisini to Burbo. You then need to bring either Tago or Burbo down from 2RF to CTW when the opportunity presents itself.

Y2Berts

Jones i can’t trade because Newcastle played so it’s tuilagi. I plan to trade penesini out anyway. To burbo creates decent cash?

Trade-a-holic

I think Penisini outscores Tuilagi this week but go with your gut.

Y2Berts

Can also do papy penesini taafe > burbo Garrick turbo?

Shlapper

Dang, we knew this game was going to be ugly and with the weather even uglier but seriously … Great crowd and watching this drop fest …

Evil_Team

Agree – as a Bulldogs fan this is just painful to watch. Their attack is so predictable.

Sally M

Storm & Panthers squad reductions and changes

Storm: Wishart (fullback), Meaney (wing), Ieremia OUT, J.Grant IN (bench), Johns & Kamikamika still reserves
Panthers: still 1-17, Jennings & Eisenhuth still reserves

Shlapper

Wishart into FB almost makes me want to trade him in at HOK but … I am not buying into his minutes security. He appears to be an emergency cover only but man the potential if he could hold onto FB at Storm for a few weeks. I am calling trap (watch him get 60+).

Evil_Team

Goodbye Ilias
Welcome Wishart

Hope you make the most of the next month

Tigerstyle

yo, VC Turbo and C Hynes or CTurbo??

Shlapper

Surely if you can loophole you have to VC Turbo and C Hynes. Given weather conditions though safer best is VC one of them and C iPaps. It looks like a forwards security score this week.

Walkers On

Is Ieremia injured or is Wishart in on merit?

Shlapper

Ieremia is not injured. Bellamy liked Wishart back up last week after Paps injury where rest of team played well together. So saying I can’t see Wishart playing big mins or retaining any value for more than this week. I was keen on him but looking at his games this year I am too nervous.
