Squad Breakdown: Team insights, Round 2

Thanks mate! Love the Lam-Brailey trade. Ideally would want one more look at both of them, but I understand the need to go early to maximise our four trades before any price rises. I don&#8217;t mind the other, but I think I&#8217;d want one more look at both Smith and Arrow (especially if off bench again). But go with your gut!

Great wrap Tim. Trade wise this week I&#8217;m thinking of going Lam to Brailey &amp; Brandon Smith to Jai Arrow. Really didn&#8217;t enjoy the role of either watching the games live. Definite distributors. Thoughts on these trades? Just looking to improve base output. Would love Cody but don&#8217;t want to pull the team apart.

Hey John, 
Thanks mate! 
I had the wrong base for Mead initially sorry, it was actually 33 which is great.
Not convinced he&#8217;ll maintain that based on the rest of his career though.
Base is tackles + runs &#8211; missed tackles.
Cheers, Tim.

Thanks Tim, it&#8217;s a very insightful analysis!
Can you please clarify how &#8216;base points&#8217; are calculated? I can&#8217;t follow how you have Mead only scoring 17 in base.

Walker needs to start over Lam and they have a kicker. I&#8217;m death riding SST so this will help too!

Nice wrap there Tim.
Two points. 
1) Arrow looked a beast, in career best shape, rig-wise. 
2) Does Teddy have to be back up kicker? Cost him 4 points.
