Nah

Next year my strategy will be to copy VK...I may be 1 round behind him all season, but should be able to get into the top 50 at least

Thanks guys. Also thinking of doing the same with Havili if he can get the spot for the next month.

Both trades net me 150k off the bat and the potential is there for another 150k each.
Cheers for the thoughts lad.

I have six playing this round.

Six. Assuming Reynolds is OK.

Rein
Taumalolo
Taupau
Waddell
Reynolds
CNK
...and maybe Martin from the Panthers if I'm lucky.

I am guessing that means I'll drop about 200 points on those around me which will be a big rankings drop.

IF I decide to trade this round rather than go gung-ho for my final 17, it'll be Dylan Brown and Lawrie out for Havili and whoever else looks good at the time. So at maximum I'll have 9 which seems probably bang on average but probably not enough to hold rank within the top 100 with some fuller teams expected to scream up the ladder for a round.

1039 for the week and first time I've broken 1k this year. Trading in Farah was a bit disappointing but gotta roll with the punches. He stays for now. I've moved up to 422 overall so plan on trying to make a few moves over the coming rounds, now I just need to work out what said moves will be...

I have copied VK a total of one time this year and that was to pick Lomax over Xerri. :/

Can anyone confirm VK didn't actually pick xerri and sell us a porky..

JK he seems like a good bloke

I told him to go with Xerri but he wouldn't listen. He probably was drinking. He could have been in first.
In Lomax defense, he did have a season high

Allan is absolute poo and im sick of his kahu like scores

Brittain is an 80 minute tackle bot at the very least should score 40+

Roast me

Considering it but for the Raiders rookie hooker if named. Allan is a spud.

Just remember that nobody has made perfect choices every week. Everyone could see themselves doing a lot better if they got to go back and change decisions with the benefit of hindsight.
If people got to go back and make different picks, you'd probably still be ranked in the same spot because everyone else would make better picks too.

Do you drive a DeLorean ??

There is a point where u can choose between cover and winging it. Over to you @LB.

Matterson named 18th man for nsw

Taumalolo seems the obvious choice but I'm not sure I can do it. Still traumatised from what traumatised last time I did.

Wow, Rein to CS9 in round 13 will cost less than 100K, awesome.

Why not both ?

100 percent. High score of 35 in a team on top of the ladder. Dont let the door hit ya on the way out champion

Are we expecting Lomax to keep the FB spot? Looks good early but got found out later in the game. Not sure what other options Mary has, although we all know he may try.

Not sure if it's worth keeping him for 16 or cash him out now. Got him at 212K which helps.

Walters hinting at smith being number 21 in his QLD squad

Looks like he thinks you're gonna lose so he's resorting to mind games..

How many trades do you have left? Could make some ground if you have trades to burn for the next few weeks mate.

It's interesting if you have neither of Smith/McInnes who look to overtaken Farah as 2nd and 3rd HOK to have, which one do you take first.

McInnes seems like a better move with low BE, but the true impact of Robson probably wasn't shown as they only had 1 player on the bench for most of the 2nd half. He's probably still going to play 80, so may as well pick him up while his price is trending upwards

You're really in love with Wighton haha. New forum drinking game, every time you mention him, take a shot

Ponga, Munster, RTS, Teddy, Cleary, Moses, ARey.. all averaging higher than him though, so not sure about Super POD..

I'd be face down in the gutter
