    Surely you play as if the season is going ahead. It seems they are doing everything for it to go ahead.

    BREAKING: Zac Lomax shifted from fulllback after one game. Matt Dufty returns from injury for
    @NRL_Dragons  v  @PenrithPanthers  and straight into no.1 jumper. Lomax shifts to outside backs for Mikaele Ravalawa (quad injury) OUT.
    @telegraph_sport

    GET FUCKED!!!!! The kid has played one game. Dufty is far too inconsistent. Lomax was beating Dufty for the jersey before the season started and they have two young guns in Saab and Sailor on the sidelines. I get Dufty has experience.... but one game! Chances that Lomax goes back to FB after Rava returns?

    Jeeze I hope they score a lot of tries on the weekend.

    Plenty of wing options, Saab, sailor, but as a non owner and Lomax critic I like the move.

Ended up being a lot of value out there, horsey at lock, Yeo staying at lock but with jfh named at 2rf, which was what had scared me off at tlt from going Yeo. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to play Walters when Reynolds moved from the bench, as I had already played my only questionable 14-17 when we found out. Missed Marshall opportunity as well.

    I had spent weeks finalising my team and any of these changes would have meant significant adjustments, so missed the opportunities.

    I kept JTB over Katoa when he wasn't named to start, if that counts as a last minute adjustment (technically it was a last minute decision to not adjust and stick with the team I'd planned)

    Dunno, I'm a bit disillusioned with it all. Reading too much doom porn on ATS

    Wow, that definitely breaks Lomax. You can only ride it out, but wow.

    With Hampton, I now have two wingers and Wiliame in my centres. Dreamy stuff.

    Hoping Lomax has a blinder on the wing and Rava a speedy recovery.

    Good news kind of... Means Dugan probably into Centre or on the Wing.

    Geez, I thought Lomax would go fine, but another one like Burns I ultimately couldn't fit in. I should buy a lotto ticket.

    I am thinking who out of my hookers is the most appropriate to ditch.

    I think I can handle Friend not playing 80 minutes but I only chose Levi because he has playing 80.
    I think my enthusiasm for A-Fifita has strongly dissipated after last week.

    So its looking like A-Fifita to Tatola & Levi to G. Williams

    To be fair, lomax was horrible. Dufty wasn't a bad fullback I thought, and no worse under a highball than lomax.

    Does Momo on the bench help Musgroves minutes? I personally think Momo is on the bench in case the Grant trade happens they can then ask for special consideration for a direct swap.

    Lomax gets a hold for me this week. Should be outside Wiliame I think so hopefully those two can strike up a combo and will be up against Mansour and Naden (I think) so could be a few TB's if Naden is having a game.

    Centres are a bit fucked with Lomax and Williame but I have other moves to make so I will have to make do.

    No Katoa for jmk, great bench for him. Hess starting with no Wright again, both should be good for 80.

    Crichton hasn’t landed a start .... yet

    Yeo 2rf and jfh lock. Silly buggers going on there.

    Hopoate starting 2rf

    Pompey looks like a trap

    Horsey is lock again

    Katoa starts. Lots of 2rf cheapies.

    Crichton 2rf (didn’t get center last week)

    Verrills bench

    Reynolds half, Walters hooker (no grant) momo named, deal dead?

    Peachy and mofo bench
