I don’t think so no.
If you have the $$$ Nat Butcher? Base stats are good and if he nabs a try then he scores really well.
Not sure I can afford. Would have to give up Blore I think.
I also need a edge or mid but with origin coming up the options are very limited.
I'm keeping an eye on Lemuelu & Wilton though. Both good attacking edges.
Butcher is on the wish list but I dont have funds to make a trade like that lol.
Plath sould be back this week aswell as another mid option.
I’ve got 15 trades & not making any. Anyone with less than that I’d be very careful you don’t run out
Willison absolutely a hold over origin
im taking a punt on matamua - hopefully can be a slow cash burn. Can then hold trades for a while....
I'm thinking about Gordon Chan Kum Tong. But Eagles don't play next week.
Croker will be back sooner rather than later you would think so I wouldn't bother and yea they don't play round 13. Neither do the tigers but Matamua seems like the only cashy I can get rid of Chevy for haha
A rule I’ve learned that has helped me is the ‘three date rule’. If someone has a role, you have the chance to see them in that role for 2-3 games & see their potential score. This has saved me many a trade on chops and changes made from coaches. I’d rather cop the price rise to see the players role. Eg Matamua has the danger of twal & pole who may steal his role, so I’ll avoid. Trades are too valuable to be spending on someone who gets 2 games and reverts back to a bench role. Hope this helps, it’s certainly helped me.
However, there may be alternatives to that rule. For example, i watched Armstrong for one game and saw enough from him that he’d bring value. He had the role for multiple months & was a clear trade in.
