Brett Morris to ????.

Why Saab?

Sonnysideup

He was being funny cause there is no way we can answer that without knowing, preferably your team, but your current CTW at least

Prefer Taukieaho, especially once his round 6 score of 23 rolls out of his breakeven next week.

tk

Lockouts over

Sally M

The magic number has moved from 8256 to 8276 this week.

To calculate a breakeven, use the following formula:

Breakeven = ( ( Current player salary ) / Magic number ) x 3 ) – last two scores

eg. Sam Walker = ( ( 494700 / 8276 ) x 3 ) – 125 – 163 = – 109

It blows my mind that people would sit there and do this equation every time they want a B.E when its less than $1 a week for supercoach plus

Or you could simply log onto nrlsupercoachstats.com and get all the info for free or a small donation. It has so many features it’s not funny.

Really want to hold trades this week but I don’t want to lose my semi high ranking currently ranked 1800 OA. Have 2 starters potentially out with Morris and Capewell. Only have 24 trades so not sure if I should keep trading or hold off for a week. If Capewell plays I only have to play one dud CTW for one week tops most likely Saab

SC_FINEST

Hey guys, who would you say is a great 4th CTW option to get after Too, fergo and laurie? Im not sure as i was aiming to get thompson in this week but he got injured

Bozzin8r

Best, Holmes are both good shouts

Gibbo

From nrl physio

“Corey Thompson was the most concerning syndesmosis injury by mechanism from the weekend, and scans have revealed a multi-ligament injury that will require surgery. Club expects an approx 8 week recovery, with most NRL players in recent years returning in 6-8 weeks”

Only just bought him in :/ Trade for peachy I think.

Bozzin8r

man such a shame he was on fire this season

gareth

Which pair make way so that I can bring in Haas?
TU Capewell & Staines
TD Lomax & Uto

Disco

Thinking James and Watson to Haas and Grant this week

Focus on byes from next week onwards starting with Simonson to Best

perrin_07

But Watson plays 13..

Disco

True but if Grant outscores Watson by 20 each week for next month thats 80 extra points compared to the 50-60 Watson nets me in 13

MyYfH8sSC

He will outscore him by more than that.

Backi

Just a thanks for everyone and their input on this site (beside random downvoters lol) moved into the top 30 this week so once again I will take a photo and assume it won’t get any better.

The Duke

The only way is up Backi. Build it (the team) and the green arrows will come.

perrin_07

That’s a great ranking and hopeing u can keep it up!
I’ve been getting alot of downvotes lately too. It makes my day horrible and I don’t know what to do!

Pablo Bill

Great work! Keep it up, I did that when I hit 100th (took a photo). Lucky cause i’ve had a 3 round slide to just outside 1,000th…

MyYfH8sSC

Don’t worry about the downvoters. FT and the boys will give up eventually!

The Duke

I know it was against the Dragons but what are the thoughts on the former BJ Leilua into the centres for Staines. It’ll be a straight swap for me.

perrin_07

He looked so uninterested for alot of it.
He was defending his line, and think he got a penalty against him but he looked absolutely irate.
He’s only a little issue from doing something silly again.

The Duke

One swallow does not make a…summer.

perrin_07

Personally, he’s probably a never again for me

The Duke

Much like a divorced man hooking up with a menace, I think it’s a desperation that made me think of it.

LoneWolf5498

Is Harry Grant a pickup now seeing as he is starting? He has a BE of 88, so maybe could hold out for a week but I wouldn’t be surprised to see a big game from him

perrin_07

Reckon cini will hold his spot? He looked very good for his debut.
They need his mates to travel with him in the stands! When ramsey had his crowd last year it was great to see

MyYfH8sSC

Cini is on a développement contract and had to get permission to play him. With Talau out this week he should get another run.

CBB

Is bringing in Ryan matterson too risky

Sally M

Any concussion makes him a trade out with his history. If you want him I’d wait at least a week as he should bottom out in price with his round 2 score of 35 to rollout of his breakeven.

Karma Keg

I’ll probably bring him in – but not this round. Still has good money to lose and is a proven keeper. As Sally says, one hit to the head and he’ll be out for multiple weeks though.

StormWarning

One hit to the head and he’s retiring imo.

That was a very promising return though. I’d bring him back in but not this week.

steamedham

TU: James Roberts + Ryan James >> Feagai + Pangai
TD: Capewell + Ryan James >> Feagai + Papalii

teza

Nofo worth keeping?

Pablo Bill

Think he’s a hold until first Bye. Will pump out 40-50 each week and hope for some attach, in saying that, Simpkin really can’t pass to the right too well and GO YOURSELF Douehi is not a half….

Like Teddy he’s not worth selling anymore. Nofo was one of my worst round 1 selections. Super disappointing. He should watch the tape of Curran to see how it’s done.

Wallah Hezbula

Well the Lomax trade did not pan out like I hoped it would so back to the drawing. Have held onto Tino so hoping he repays the faith before I punt him. Going early on one of the cheapies but who is more of a priority trade out

Remaining: 21K
Brailey, Watson
Welch, Tino, James, Leniu
DFifi, Gus, Tofu, Fui, Condon, Curran
Cleary, DCE
Munster, Schuster
Sivo, Capewell, Lomax, Laurie, Staines, Simo, Anderson
Turbo, KP

TU: James
TD: Fui

ALF

Missed the boat but Curran still a no brainer trade in??

TU Yes
TD No

Lolo's TauTau's

He could be a season keeper if he retains his spot.

StormWarning

Yes. He looked awesome.

weebs

If anyone still has Stains, what is the plan for him? Just lost everything that he has made. 65 be this week.

Disco

Thankfully I’ve plenty of cash on hand atm so him losing money doesnt freak me out. Also no playing him so thinking I may just hold in the hope he scores a few tries in 13.

But can see merit depending the situation with your squad

StormWarning

I hate being captain hindsight because I get plenty wrong but last week there were 13 TU for trading out Saab over Staines. I thought that was a very curious thing. Staines would lose money, Saab would make money. What’s the point of keeping a guy for round 13 if he’s probably going to pump out 20 points?

Sell him before he loses another 40K.
