A few more injuries will shake things up. I’m currently in top 250, most teams above me are so similar, my rank has barely moved for 6 weeks. Hoping I have a few more trades than most as that’ll be the only way forward

Surgess out indefinitely with the shoulder infection. Needs to go to hospital daily and having drips inserted into his heart to control the infection. Aiming for a round 18 return however.

Ethan Lowe would be an alright punt if Surgess was out for a while.

This goes to show that while I'm sitting at 1300, it's going to be very very tough to get any higher by the looks of these.

I strained my groin playing golf on the weekend, have barely been able to move all week. Couldnt put my shoes and socks on this morning for work, needed my gf to do it for me.

I just tried to walk up a hill, had to find another way to get up it.

These guys break their necks, wrists etc, and back up 2 weeks later.......

I'll have to skip golf for 3 weeks.

Was it worth it? Like did you a 300yd bomb?

Not fantasy related, but whats the go with Kallum Watkins? Hasn't been named anywhere again

Reached the second guessing stage of the week. Had two trades locked in
Watson - DCE/AREY (my decision no advice required)

.....But was going
Mahoney - Jrbo

Primarily because Jrbo is super consistent and I need decent 2rf cover on the pine

Now I'm thinking i could go
Mahoney - CM9

Primarily for the 5 extra points per week but it does mean if I want 2rf cover I have to play burns in CTR and use Nikora as 2rf cover while also involving him in some shenanigans with AFB

Anyone have a strong opinion either way?

Haha well I can hit 290m which is 320 yds anyway. It's my consistency from the bunkers and some iron shots that has been the issue lately

Well you got 15m on me. Going driver wedge is only handy if you can mince the wedges too. My short game, specifically hitting into greens is attorocious at moment. I hit 12 fairways and only 4 GIRs on Saturday.

3 weeks?  Looks like you're a trade mate.  Didn't want to use a trade on you but with your scoring rate, I don't think I can have you sitting on the bench.

In all seriousness, hope you heal up quick, and yeah some of these guys are tough sons of bitches.  It would be amazing what an injection would do though.

Yeah I took 6 shots to get out of a bunker on the weekend. Had the worst elevation i've ever seen, just couldn't get it out. Struggled with my 6 of all clubs too, just couldnt get it sweet.

Golf has given me more injuries than any other sport, not what I thought I was singing up to. Go figure.

Nah, looks very good mate. Who you throwing the C on?

Hmm Cook or Haas at this stage

Wouldn't even consider the C on him, but I wonder if SJ will go big (assuming he is fine to play) against the Warriors. Daresay there is a bit of motivation there.

I can drive about 250m 50 of that is to the right.

Remember he went huge before he injured his hammy, played 10 minutes of the next game after being "right" gone again for 7 weeks.

My watch tracks me around the course. Few weeks ago i served up this 9 on a par 3. Was killing it, still hit net 71. Came third. Filthy

Hahaha that's gold, that's also a very very ugly hole.

Where do you play?

Surely Ash Taylor isn't on 900k a year, he's worth half that.

The front pin just sucked me in.

Play at federal canberra. It’s pretty quality. Just gets dry and couch fairways go dormant in winter.
