Final Word: Trades, tactics, tips, Round 12

This is the part of the season where Supercoaches really have to remain switched on and agile and ready to make changes on the run.  Injuries, team changes, suspensions and Origin considerations are really becoming more and more relevant as the weeks go on.  Not only the players that make State of Origin, but the consideration of who will back up after Origin is significant for forward planning.  I’m even considering how the rep weekend around the second State of Origin will affect players with many of the Polynesian boys set to line up for NZ, Samoa, Tonga, PNG, Cook Islands and Fiji.  Embed from Getty Images
