True lol

The closest player to your question might be Kotoni Staggs. Not too cheap but has the spot for the season and covers two positions.

Problem with that is I already have Staggs as one of my emergency back ups for 2nd row/centre

L Martin will be staying in my side for rest of year so hope he keeps playing full time gig at Panthers as a back up for the 2nd row. Eventually JTurbo will join my 2nd row to go with Lolo and Taupau. Sold Murray before round 12 bye so JTurbo be the one to come in after round 16 as he be better for the run home after the byes. Staggs will be handy as that 2nd back up after Martin and also filling the centre roll if Bateman/Nikora go down. Also Lomax was good for centre as well as wfb cover but the bugger got injured.

Will skip SST I decided on fantasy as trades are less on here than other comps plus can get so many hookers on this. Gonna turn Havili/Wadell to RTS round 15. AFB to SJ the week after for round 16. Need that cheapie this week for Garrick so I can get CM9 for Tolman for this round. After byes Milf become JTurbo and will get Tturbo as well as they are the best players in the comp That my basic plans anyway for Fantasy but plans always change with the injuries etc Be riding home with not much trades as always so cover duels be important.

Yeah, I was keen as on trading Carty to SST all week. But then saw a post on Rogues highlighting the fact SST was the beneficiary minutes wise of a few Roosters injuries over the season. I think he is still a good trade in considering the Round 16 points and DPP, but glad I held Carty. SST probs scores a brace and banners up now

If Cook gets a banner this week, Verbal’s reign at the top *could be over... to an old wiley dog!




*no maths applied to substantiate this claim

Just to reiterate: we need a genuine call out emoticon @Random

Am also worried about wfb's being rested after next 2 origins but will have RTS and Watson. Will need someone to back up of the Origin players. Hopefully Ponga backs up. Tedesco be a worry round 17 but should be safe to sell Garrick (I hope) and hope Lomax makes that fast recovery in time for round 16 bye and to cover round 17, can trade one out and get Tturbo then if backs up as well if Lomax not back in 4 weeks for round 17. Brimson did it in 3 weeks with surgery and it exactly 3 weeks from his surgery date when they play Storm. I still think I be covered one way or another so should be safe to sell Garrick for that cheapie, I just reluctantly don't want to sell Lomax after just bringing him in and I believed his scores would of gone up from here on in. I had plans for him as emergency back up for wfbs being rested and for rest of year. Anyway I drunk I talk a lot when I drunk and hopefully I make sense haha

@SI yeah SST still a good trade I will get him on the other comps but when you can have CM9 to go with Cook and Smith on Fantasy it makes you less want to chase SST types when can have a million hookers. Well done keeping on with the Carty party as well

What about Martin Kennedy? Got to be in the frame?

Kallum Watkins joining Titans July 1st from Leeds. Was a superb player, would have starred in the NRL a few years ago but did an ACL and lost his acceleration/pace, will struggle now. Still, could be a CTR cash out if he comes in at base price

Fairly bad set of games to only have Taumalolo in - 245/6 (another shocking start with below 41 average so far)

Need some big scores from my 8 players today to shoot back up the rankings - Munster (doubt it will happen been useless since I bought him), CS9, Ponga, Watson, Cook (c), Murray, JFH and Haas

Morgan and RTS definitely made up for Thursday night for me.

Do I play Sivo or take Havilli's 39? Sivo will be cover for Ted or Murray either way, but I think they both play. Probably have to take the 39 at this stage hey?

Do you think he’ll score a try. It’s really close if you fancy him to score.

He hasn’t scored more than 26pts in matches without a try, so would only flip the coin if you like him to cross.

I'd take 39 in the bank over risking Sivo

To summarise then mate, Henchy was a massive Broncos and Maranta fan, and even named his Fantasy team back in 2014 or 2015 as "Lachlan Maranta's Only Fan".  Which by default was accurate, but if you dissed the Great M(ar)AN(ta) then you ended up with Homosexual Pornography in your Inbox.

I remember Buzz Rothfield saying he should play for Queensland.
How that guy still has a job is beyond me.

6/270 so far,have slid from rank 40 at round start to 74 now,mostly due to playing Xerri. Cook,Haas,Murray,Taupau,Milford,Moses,Tedesco,Ponga,CS9,McInnes and Mahoney left

Thansk for the thoughts lads.
lol @ the downvote.

Well last night was more like it with RTS & Taumalolo (c). I'm not too stressed with Taumalolo because anything over 50 points is acceptable. Currently 335/7. I will buy C. Smith today & I think that will be my last trade. That will be 3 trades used this week & I'm saving the extra trade to buy Hamlin-Uele next round to cover Fifita & because imo even coming off the bench he will still score well.
