In a dilemma. Either trading bsmith or Boyd for Mahoney , however have to use funds from trading frizell
If I trade bsmith I can get Elisea katoa if I trade Boyd I can’t get katoa and only have 405k for a 2rw ,frf, or 5/8 through duals
Going Hammer would definitely make my 2RF a bit light with Murray, Wilton and Hopgood the main 3 each week

Cheese and Luke are my hks. Cheese has to go and it’s either Mahoney or grant coming in. Obviously grant is the premium option, but Mahoney is looking good at a massive discount. Would you expect them to score reasonably close or can you justify the extra 242k for grant? One thing I’m wary of is the round 9 and 13/origin bye for grant. If I went for Mahoney I’d probably stick with him throughout the origin period
TU spend the cash on grant
TD save $ and get Mahoney

Second guessing my trades.again..
TU -Hammer and E katoa
TD -kiraz and Preston.
Sux as i have ponghia, doohickey and patty…. most likely all 3 out. My back up reserves all play before doohickey…. so we need to know early as… you reckon we’ll know before super Saturday starts??
Carrigan far from a sell. With the makeup of your 2rf you might have to skip on katoa. Other 2 trades are great. To free up crash and if you were feeling risky you could go ford-carty, Thompson-Chee kam or something fancy like teddy-Walsh. You definitely don’t have to boost this week.
Youre not wrong mate, he has some soft opposition next couple weeks but cant see him doing much besides tackling agaisnt decent defence.

Ponga and possibly Doueihi are out this week. Need a 5/8 or halfback.
TU: Trindall – am I correct that Hynes is expected back next week? He could make 100K with a score of 60ish.
TD: Schuster
Can afford Ezra Mam ($583K) but would prefer to save some cash to strengthen my CTW in future weeks.

Hey people – was gonna trade E Butcher to Ekat, Talau to Hammer + Doorey to Preston, but Kiraz has got me with severe FOMO. What do you think about Butcher > Preston, Talau > Hammer, I Thompson > Kiraz? Means I get the cash + the upside I suppose??? Have to forego Ekat for the moment, but gives me 150k ITB to deal with Cheese, and get in Nicho soon (Got S Walker holding his spot for the time being, not doing too badly! ): Thanks in anticipation guys and have a good one this weekend! Carn the Eagles!… Read more »
You could get Kiraz instead of Walsh if you have dual in CTW.

Trades as follows this week: E Butcher to E Katoa, I Thompson to Hammer, To’o to Kiraz. Leaves me with 200k ITB to upgrade elsewhere in the coming weeks. Didn’t LOVE selling To’o but I want to see more of how the Penrith backine works before bringing him back.

Who do you already have in these positions?
Dfif/hopgood/ebutcher/Preston/doorey
Tohu/Welch/pele/keppie
Douehi/schuster
Given his higher breakeven, injury risk and being able to get a gun with a good draw in E.Katoa I would go with selling Brandon Smith
Agree with H99… the pickings are pretty slim under $405k amongst those positions. Katoa the better option
How confident are we feeling the Schuster is the Man to have for this Rd?
TU: Great Move
TD: Stay off the Homebrew haha
Got 2 weeks to see how he goes, probably other priorities in those having their 3rd game this round
Schuster is a wait and see. Could be an ideal downgrade option in a few weeks.
TG, i am playing him tonight.
Douehi reserve.
Cunning Move and could be a PoD is my thought
Same!
TU – Kiraz for the $$
TD – straight to Garrick
Cheers
Play IKatoa or risk Doueihi?
TU: Play IKatoa, R on Doueihi, can change to Preston if not playing
TD: Play Doueihi, risk AKP as AE
Play Preston anyway, surely?
Trying to choose my last trade in, E Butcher for:
TU E Katoa + $67K itb
TD Hammer (via duals) + 148k itb
Katoa for mine. Hammer only an option if you want quick cash but don’t need him to play in your 17 each week.
Yeah, my concern is not making enough cash. Would only play Hammer on matchups where as Katoa would probably be in the 17 every week
Highly dependant on your team makeup, choose whichever position needs more strengthening. I definitely like katoa more as a buy
Going Hammer would definitely make my 2RF a bit light with Murray, Wilton and Hopgood the main 3 each week
Cheese and Luke are my hks. Cheese has to go and it’s either Mahoney or grant coming in. Obviously grant is the premium option, but Mahoney is looking good at a massive discount.

Thanks legends
Hey everyone, what’s the best final trade?
TU – B Smith to Egan
TD – E Butcher to E Katoa
Thanks everyone!
Is Too to Garrick worth finding the money for?
I’d only consider it if I had no other issues and didn’t have to make another trade just to fund it.
GL
Thats my plan next week mate
Sux as i have ponghia, doohickey and patty…. most likely all 3 out. My back up reserves all play before doohickey…. so we need to know early as… you reckon we’ll know before super Saturday starts??
We’ll probably know at 4pm on Saturday when the 24 hour squad cuts are made
Thanks Santa, early xmas gift , cheers
Talau > Hammer locked in. $35,200 left
Grant – Cheese
Cotter, Welch – Uto, Pele
Fifita, Carrigan, Hopgood – Loiero, Ford, Preston
Walker – Cleary
Katoa – Douiehi
Val, Thompson, Hammer, Warbrick – Turuva, Alamoti, AKP
Teddy – Turbo
Carrigan > Katoa?
Cheese > Reed?
Why Carrigan, very good chance he plays on Saturday night, and great Broncos draw starts then too.
Carrigan far from a sell. With the makeup of your 2rf you might have to skip on katoa. Other 2 trades are great. To free up crash and if you were feeling risky you could go ford-carty, Thompson-Chee kam or something fancy like teddy-Walsh. You definitely don’t have to boost this week.
Not wanting to sell Carrigan but it was just an idea to find funds to grab Reed for Cheese haha!
Taking a Bunt on my half choice.
Anyone else just can’t see Mahoney being a top 2 hooker? He just doesn’t run the ball enough for me
He burnt me last year
Yep me too just wondering if it’s my bias against him
Youre not wrong mate, he has some soft opposition next couple weeks but cant see him doing much besides tackling agaisnt decent defence.

Thanks Ghost! 😉
Man, watching Fox and all the talk about Turbo makes me want to sell Teddy and bring him in. Definition of FOMO trading.
Hey legends!
Thoughts on option A, B or C:
A) Stone, Tedesco, Ponga > Turbo, Walsh, Preston
B) NAS, Tedesco, Ponga > Turbo, Walsh, Harris
C) Stone, Tedesco, Ponga > Kiraz, Turbo, Preston.
Options A and C mean I need to play Keppie.
A!!!
NAS -> Tohu next week
Thanks Panther! Don’t feel Kiraz is a massive one to miss out on?
You could get Kiraz instead of Walsh if you have dual in CTW.
