The second lot of trades is definitely better than the first couple. I don't think Lussick to Brailey is completely sideways. Maybe diagonally upwards? gg though, I hope Fainu smashes it for you. Ballsy pick

Re: Defeat the Porpoise 2024
I've been max trading every week until now so it is time for somewhat of a pause
Just Chevvy ==> Armstrong
for obvious reasons
Leaves me with 0k and
brailey
harris haas (c) s. fainu
a.crichton d.fifita
galvin johnson (vc)
iro cobbo
papenhuyzen k. nikorima armstrong
finefeuiaki piakura hopgood (loop) russell (loop)
j. gray b.smith s. hughes strange
I am a bit torn on what to do with b. smith if watson is gonna take a big chunk of his HOK minutes each week but I am not sure what else I can do this week as I don't want to use all 3 trades

I understand the Chevy out trade but I think there is a good chance we see him again before RD13 and he only has a BE of 4. What about trading Strange out instead. He's made his 196k, bank that and that gives you something to play with next week to upgrade Finefeuiaki / Cheese if needed rather than needing to fix them both with 0k in the bank.
Looking at your team make up you won't be playing Strange anyway to just stash Chevy in #21.

Funny you say this... I did end up keeping Chevvy for that very reason
I traded out Strange as he is not really going to make too much more cash... I also traded out Brandon Smith
Strange ==> Armstrong (needed a WFB for this week)
B. Smith ==> T. Boyd (just feels like he is going to be a much more reliable scorer
I did not put it here earlier as I did not want anyone to talk me out of it

Great minds...
Just not 100% sold on Boyd, potential job security issues when Campbell is back. Didn't he lose his spot before the injuries?

Re: Defeat the Porpoise 2024
This week, if Tohu is back, I will have 17 players and won't make any trades.
My two Knights, Chevvy & SJ will be out.
I only have 12 trades so no need to use them this week or the next. Maybe I will just play 16 players if Tohu is out again. I made about 400k last week an no non-keepers are looking like a trade yet
My team will be
havili
harris haas (c) hopgood
a.crichton d.fifita
galvin wishart
aitken iro
koula weeks cobbo
s. hughes s. fainu k. nikorima russell
johnson brailey armstrong stewart
187k in the bank
