I have to say, when I was reading through this, that looks like a pretty mean 11 (esp with Gallen on the bench).

Anyone know when Gallen is due back ? If he is out for a while I might use his 900k to upgrade my bench !

I think Milchcow posted it was 6 week injury at start of season, posted page 1 of thread

Paul Gallen was one of the few where a google search actually revealed the injury.

off-season surgery, misses first 5 weeks of season, returns round 6

Pretty sure you don't get any points for Try Assists, but hopefully jags some more try's

Righto, is it line breaks still in it? This really highlight one of the many reasons my team sucks

what time does the Friday game drop ?

Friday night is a doozy

Bulldogs 47 (H. El Masri 4, R. Maitua, W. Mason, L. Patten tries; H. El Masri 9 goals; B. Sherwin field goal) defeated Wests Tigers 12 (D. Fitzhenry, B. Hodgson tries; B. Hodgson 2 goals)

Spoiler:

Wow El Masri was excellent, insane value.

Gibbs is looking pretty average for his price point; not making any where near as many tackles as I would expect.

Fuck sake knew I should of punted on Fitzhenry

Spoiler:

4 tries?! Wtf my underwhelming drafting of 2 wingers off to a good start. This format is insane too. Farah gotta go. Need to find a way to Cam Smith him next week

Patto 84 is more my comment to the insane nature of this. I dont remember him ever breaking 40
In regular fantasy

Put all the wingers and fullbacks on my bench!!!

Just realised I had 7 players in that one match

Only one of them any good. In for a rough week I suspect

Oh fuck. I knew I needed both GI and El Masri in the next two weeks but opted for GI this week. Wrong Bet.

On a positive note, I felt like an absolute gronk picking Mason from the outset - I think I'm the only one who did it in this comp? Still not sure he's going to be a good acquisition, but it feel pretty good tonight. Now I just need to check if Code Delta has El Masri. I'll bet my nuts he does...
