I have Derrickx & Currie as back up in rucks and Langdon & Langford down back to cover Hanley. Down to 24 trades including this week going Caddy > Fasolo.

Can I afford to hold onto both? Is anyone else holding both of them or should I look to trade atleast one out?

Thoughts?

if you are going for overall then you've gotta trade, but if not then hold- especially since you're already 6 trades in the hole

Depends if you're going for overall or just league..!?

Overall - No
League - 50/50

I'm holding onto Barlow/Lids/Mummy as i have cover and just making sure my team will beat the guy im playing each week, long term still kept the prem and hold more trades, downside scoring about 200points less per round atm...

Holding Mummy may not be too bad as reports say it may only be a 1 week injury (most likely 2 weeks though). Hanley could be an issue, no real news regarding him.

I'm in the same boat.... with players and number of trades. I'm splitting the difference and trading Hanley but keeping Mumford.

Hamstrings are iffy and if they're talking a month it's clearly a bad one. Can't have a premo missing for a month.

Draining fluid out of a knee isn't nearly as dramatic. I think Mumford may only miss this week and be back the next

If you are going for league, trade depending on your opponent each week. Check their teams out and see if you need the extra points to get up or not,

effectively 6 trades down once you move caddy on.

Look at the teams you play in the next 2-3weeks. Do they have mummy and or Hanley? Do they also have other issues to fix first?

Leagues are all about holding trades until the end so you are not playing donuts at the pointy end. I have won more than one league from 8th because I had more trades left.

When it says Mumford is going to be out for two weeks, does that include the week just gone? If so, I think I will hold him...

My mate and me both have Mumford and we're playing each other this week. We have agreed not to trade him. Love the Collusion! mwahaha

All the reports suggest he will only miss one match, in which case if you have back-up then it might be better to hold.

Ringo hinting Hanley could be a month or maybe more.. So he's gone..

Hold onto both, Hanley could be back in two weeks.

After hearing the news that Hanley is only expected to miss 2 weeks I will hold onto both players. I just hope atleast one of Currie & Derrickx play while Mummy is gone.

No Currie and I trade to Cox, a trade burnt but I cannot stomach donuts.
