Hey guys

Leagues were all going great til fyfe, wines, Murphy, delidio, and then Naitanui hit, season just went out the door

Have two trades to use,
need a premium forward aswell which was going to be my last two trades

Do I go giles or kruzer and then premium forward

or say Martin and hold the trade and hope lambert scorers me good in the forward line to get a win

Thanks

Perhaps keep NicNat and bring in Gawn as fwd/ruck cover (if you have Read etc as R3)

Not as if he's injured, he's grieving but expected to play next week, so I personally am keeping him (brought in Gawn last week)

Yeah fair enough, gotta try and work out how to get gawn into my forward line now,

I got Martin last week for Nic Nat hoping the Lions won't risk Luey this late in the season

You did better than me. I burnt 1 of my last three trades bringing in Sinclair. Now i gotta hope he comes up for the weekend or ill have to trade him out again. Cost 2 trades. return, zero points. not what you want at this end of the season  >:(

My league that I focus on the most I have the bye worth using my last trade to trade out Nic or just cop the donut

Blicavs is a solid option at 512k. Just some food for thought. Although I like the idea of keeping Nic Nat and bringing Gawn into the forward line.

Think I'll go Martin, closest to the best option

They say he should be back.

Go with Gawn, I'd rather Martin stay relatively unknown to everyone.

Stef Martin is certainly showing himself to be a much cheaper alternative to Goldy, either for now or next year.
Looking to next year in particular, If Leuy leaves, as they say he will, Stef will be back to being the solo ruck, and has the potential to match Goldy next year, for a good $100k less.

I'd be scooping either him or Kreuz up now, Gawn is viable but could potentially have a tough GF week if he is to face Sandy.

Do you think kruzer can keep it up? Much cheaper option, was all nat was throwing up recently anyway
