    He said he wouldn’t be resting players in his presser the other night, so who knows........

    Between Souths and Rorters though there is never such a thing as a dead rubber like some neutrals are saying, it’ll be on for young and old on Thursday night, that I’m certain of.

    Munster now has the Red Cross of Death, I didn't notice it a couple of hours ago. Has he been officially ruled out?

    I’d personally go Watson because I just think surely D Fifita can’t go that big 3 weeks running? Due a 38 or 46 or something like that? Watson as starting hooker avgs 66, is basically producing Cook stat lines.
    Surely Watson can't go 3 big weeks in a row
    He must be due for a low score

    D Fifita averages 60.2 when playing 80 minutes
    He also averages 67.2 in his last 5 matches

    I will be selling McInnes to one of Watson, D Fifita, Moses, Ma'u so hopefully I can pick the right option.

    I think this makes captaincy options interesting too. Will players like Cook, Bateman potentially get early showers depending how the game is going

    Sworn mortal enemy of mine, I'm not sure if I've ever finished above him in the rankings (although I constantly claim he's never beaten me).

    He has Munster, Johnson and McInnes.
    Bastard has Ponga who can move into the halves, Fusitua who can cover the gap in WFB and either Staggs or Lane to come into the 17.

    That is what planning is, kids. With no trades he can still cover three outs.

    Learn.

    About time you finally had a dig Wink

    I'm a little embarrassed you got with in 1000 ranks of me

    Read somewhere Ricky saying he could rest players. Hodgson the obvious candidate - he's their most important guy, but suppose it could affect Wighton, Papalii, Bateman too as other players they definitely need for the finals.

    Makes Haas very tempting to get his first armband of the year for my lads. Broncos need a win to guarantee finals

    The only way broncos don’t make the finals is if they lose to bulldogs and the tigers vs sharks game ends up in a draw

    Extremely unlikely is an understatement

    The only teams with something to play for (other than retiring players and pride) are Souths, Manly, Tigers and Sharks

    Bugger, I was thinking of putting the C on Bateman.

    I would hate getting rested or getting an early shower. I prefer staying in the game

    I'm sure most players would want to play regardless. Resting players unnecessarily could affect the teams momentum, unless you're the Roosters. I think players in a situation like Munster would make the most sense to rest.

    I'll stick with Haas, not that it would make much of a difference to me. Losing Mcinnes, Tturbo, SJ, and Munster has decimated my team for the final round.
    But, I've had my best season yet so far

    Just copy the captain choice of ol' filth, no worries. I see how it is.
