Can definitely see a 70+ score for Moses

Maybe the play is just to captain players v Titans

Smith 74, Haas 63, Teddy 92, McInnes 82

Rest of season would be Moses, Smith/Munster, Ponga, McInnes

Man I am a bit puzzled as to what to do. My work league is my main priority and I finished 5th so have an elimination final. I SHOULD win but I have Fifita and 1 trade left. Should I burn my last trade to trade Fifita for another gun or carry Fifita and play Dylan Brown instead?

Depends on your opposition really mate and the different players between you both.

We are fairly different. The differences are I have Wighton/SJ/RTS/CS9/McInnes to his DCE/Munster/Xerri/Crichton/Sivo. I am confident of winning but will be gutted if I get knocked out without using my trade.

I don't mind the first part about how your season is going but posting your team when you have no trades and no question actually relating to it is kinda weird and just comes across as boasting. I suppose if i had a better rank i wouldn't mind but yeah.

Just carry on mate

Didn’t mean it that way at all,I know I have been fortunate this year with my current ranking and would never boast about it. Admittedly I am not on the forum as much as I’d like hence not always having time to give others advice. Anyway I’ll just leave it at that

No worries mate. Been a good year for your lads and your fantasy team.

Could be the way to go in the final rounds.

Can't see peachey starting, with mick gordon in the reserves

@LB

mate, you are one of the worse for crowing when doing well! Just because you are ain't doing as well this year doesn't mean you can go throwing shade on those doing well.

You post far, far more when travelling well, asking for advice etc etc

pot kettle black for me!

Eels play 2nd, sharks play last.
Put Fifita at 17, Brown at 18.
If Brown scores well, leave it as is.
If Brown scores shit, trade Fifita.

Kearney has said that Niko will play a bit of bench hooker.

That is quite funny tbh

I usually play it safe but captain for me is on Moses at the moment

A Moses run and offload to Ma'u to dive over would be the dream this week

That’s highly likely.

So Niko in for Keighran?

Hopefully he gives Jazz 80

Didn't even cross my mind to do something like that. Cheers.

Looks like trade windows aren't far off...

NRL media release: The National Rugby League will progress work on the potential creation of trade window periods to enhance the player contracting process after a meeting of club chief executives in Sydney today. (Dean Ritchie)

A few added thoughts on head to head:

1: All else being equal, leave trades as late in weekend as possible.  In this case, even if Brown plays shit you get to see how all others players and may not need to trade Fifita

2:  If you’re ahead during the weekend, sometimes you can lock in a win by matching a player rather than playing your “best” team. 

3: If you’re behind during weekend and look like losing, try to create differences.  Could even “weaken” your team but increase chance of a win.  A few years I got a massive upset when I traded GI to  Calker at last game of round. 

4: If you’re favourite I always go safe on captain (Cook, Smith, Haas).  If I think I’m the underdog I’ll go captain risky - someone with big upside:  Teddy, Moses, Turbo, Munster.

According to chris garry, perese will debut off the bench for the Broncos this week. Similar role to paps at storm.

@Pookus:  re your FOMO question.  

While I’d probably lean to Murray, a left field option is Milford as he gives you cover for both WFB and HLF.  If his kick metres has of stayed where they were a month ago, I’d quite like this option.

How did I knew you'd disagree with me. We got to the bottom of our lil misunderstanding but cheers for your input.

Because you are being fucking sarky with posters over doing exactly what you usually do!

Fucking rips me, hypocrite!
