Loving the cricket

Havili not hitting his BE but CNK doing so a bit comical.

CNK is just a hold at this point should there be more to the Ponga story

Just want to take a moment to appreciate Payne Haas

Not my favourite position as a rule Prop.

$231k buy as soon as he was named.
Will be $790k on Sunday night.

To think at start of this year the raiders were tossing up between Abby, cnk and old field.

780/14(c) with JFH, Xerri and Nikora left over

847/15(c) with RTS and Nikora to go, traded CNK to Fainu so that's all ok. Seem to be travelling alright with all the carnage this week, Moses came through even if it wasn't pretty

Currently 702/13 (which includes Ponga's 0 points as I'm playing 16 players) with JFH, Nikora, Xerri & RTS to play. Hopefully I can hit 900.
At least I had good luck with CNK as I was looping him & Whitbread & I was going to take Whitbreads score but the loop involved Dearden & the Broncos game locked out so I was left with CNK in my 17 & he smashes Whitbread's score so I'm happy there.

Just a question - do we think due to all the injuries that are happening this year & the regularity of injuries that the current fantasy model of only 4 npr's & 21 players should be changed back to the old system with 8 npr's & 25 players. From my point of view having those extra 4 players would be gold & I probably would of been able to replace Ponga & have 17 players instead of 16. Of course this would mean you can't have your reserves & emg's full of hookers.

I dunno, I really like how it is going at the moment challenge wise. I like how peoples depth in their squad is getting tested, it is all part of the game. Since so many people have such similar teams, the decisions they make are more crucial.

Still travelling okay- 765 with JFH, Martin and Nikora to come

I feel ya, I did the same. Also had Ponga with no one in reserves, so a 0 and Havilii. Shit week for me, everyone else is going OK enough but hard to come back from 11 points off 2 people. 731 with RTS and Nikora left.

Farah is a f*ck too, talk about going down hill fast. Don't have the trades left to trade him really, will look at it after round 16. Think I'll have 5 left for injuries, so might bite the bullet.

I think it's better as it is. More of a challenge like Weiland said.

Haha wtf! Teams with 16 players are better than mine hahahaha

The way things are going with my team I'll have to play Whitbread in my 17. He's gradually getting better. The first game he started he scores 20 & yesterday was the 2nd time he started & scored 35. The first time he looked like he blew a gasket when he came off as there's a big difference between starting & coming off the bench. It's all about match fitness & conditioning & with Whitbread starting he's getting much fitter.

Didn’t watch the game, did they get the sandpaper out?

Shit teams like mine get a bit of a leg up This week!! Fucked up 10 rounds ago so don’t own Ponga, and not enough cash generation so forced to hold CNK.

We only do that against the good teams mate.
