Yeah I’d been hoping Orford would see me through Origin then upgrade to Thurston. But having Thurston and someone cheap and random like Kearney or Joe Williams for Origin weeks probably scores more than any half other than Johns

Thurston?

Try scoring rate is unsustainable for mine. Has never been more than a 10 try a year kind of guy and already has 11

Was really hoping Souths would be in the morning drop. Waiting 12+ hours for Merritts 8 sucks. I know he scores basically a try a game this season yet has never had a run of price increases.

He had 2 tries in the round 14 highlights video

Was toying with the idea of bringing in Bickerstaff. He seems to have been flying under the radar a bit.

Also missed the fact that Aiton wasn't playing.

Thank you Michael Gordon. Your 16 points AE will definitely make up for the fact that I am missing both Johns and Thuston in the halves this round. Dickhead.

Jake Webster and Anthony Laffranchi throwing up big scores for all those that traded them in.

Nope, he's shit, nothing to see here.....

Haha I hadn’t watched it, cheers for the good news. He’s just scoring a lot of single tries for 40ish scores then gets a tryless single digit score to kill all momentum. He’s actually too consistent. If he scored in bunches like Sing at the start of the year he’d have made some cash even with no base and I’d probably have moved on already. Hopefully it’s coming now.

Milch, do you want him as Fui Fui Moi Moi or Fuifui Moimoi for future use?

Fui fui moi moi please

Also, those people who put a gap between their NPRs and their 17, no need for that, I only delete it straight away

I'm out doing Mothers day stuff for a little while. Will try and get the rest of the games out when I get a chance

Thanks again for running this comp Milchy. Will make sure to grab you a few beers at the next meet up

Hey Milchy,
I had myself at 612. You’ll see my trades in/out weren’t consistent with the team I picked. I traded Douglas out, but accidentally left him in my team list. Accidentally over-rode Steve Turner in my team list.
Hopefully not an issue to anyone, especially given my pathetic score.
Cheers
JM

Great score from Stapleton.

I wonder if it's too late to jump on Wicks. Probably.

I’d say yes, he scored tries in his first two games, and this match he would’ve got more minutes due to Luke Bailey on Origin. So he’s probably got a decent score in him round 17 but otherwise going to have to score tries or hope an injury opens up more opportunity.

I got him after his first game (for r12) but mostly because he was under 300k not because was expecting big things.

Thanks mate. Was thinking as much.

Brett Morris is going to be almost a cashout for next round - probably around 270k

Easy trade in for Purtell. Hoping I can use money to get Mannering in for Luck

Loving that thinking. From memory he still had a solid first year with some tries so might be worth it as a NPR until he starts to score.

South Sydney 34 (L. MacDougall 2, N. Merritt 2, J. Lowe, T. Polglase tries; B. Walker 5 goals) defeated Brisbane 14 (F. Anderson, L. Bott, B. Seymour tries; C. Parker goal)

Souths haven't has many wins this year, but got a victory against originless broncos

Merritt got the points you wanted

Warriors 22 (M. Vatuvei 2, N. Fien, T. Martin, B. Webb tries; T. Martin goal) defeated Sydney 12 (S. Foley, J. Lewis tries; C. Fitzgibbon 2 goals)

Canberra 28 (C. Schifcofske 2, P. Graham, D. Howell, M. Weyman tries; C. Schifcofske 4 goals) defeated Bulldogs 26 (M. Utai 2, C. Armit, D. McIlwain, L. Patten tries; H. El Masri 3 goals)

Latest in the series of long-dropped players finally coming good - Clinton Schifcofske and his 106 points
