I think anyone jumping off Katoa now will regret it. Still going to average 50, so is around $130k underpriced.

I think 50 is the high end of what he'll average. And its going to take him a while to get there so if you can get an upgrade to a better scorer who has bottomed out its probably worth it.

With magic number of 13,000, $600k is 46 points.

Will be around 543k next week, priced at 41.8. Probably bottomed out this week or next.

Some good value there if anyone wants to get on, averaging 50 at FB from 11 starts. Purple patch just around the corner

Interesting, seems like a bit of variety in teams out there at the moment.

I have 8 to play but only two of those.

(I have rudolf as well but not in my playing 17)

Yeah this team has shot me up the rankings post Nrl covid lockdown, i am on 14 trades and 23k ITB though, so i could crash later on.

Rudolf / Katoa doing their job, but both providing the odd scare in terms of keeper or not.

I won't trade him yet but if he can't reach 50+ without tries in the next few weeks then he's definitely getting upgraded.

Looks like he is the new Croft at the storm. Some players get opportunities there, others don’t

Yeah Croft's downfall had crossed my mind. Was just going off a 4-game sample for him and I abandoned ship after only a few games when he turned bust the following season.

Cam Smith had some public comments about Croft too though, so writing was on the wall with him at that stage.

I own both Papa and Mitchell so I watched both very carefully last night.

I will keep Papa because he goes looking for it, follows up every play and is just keen as a bean to get his hands on the ball.

Mitchell is obvious more talented and a bigger body but he pops up when he feels like it, spends half the game standing behind the play the ball and trying to get his breath back.

He will continue to have low scores on the games where he isnt able to come up with the big plays. Storm have had a very tough start to the season and feel Papy will come good against the weak teams.

Playing 60+ minutes, he has 1 score under 48 and we know starting 2RF play big minutes

It was annoying me yesterday how several times on 1st tackle mitchell was running to take the ball for the first carry but they passed to another player instead.

Hearing Latrell Mitchell WON’T be charged for high shot on David Fusitu’a.

I think it would be pretty mental for Mitchell to be wasted doing dirty work like early set hitups.

Was where he was getting most of his tackle breaks the last couple of weeks, this week he wasnt getting them, despite being in position to receive the ball.

Every player in the history of forever says they love their Coach.  Even Fa'alogo and Jason Taylor when at your mob would no doubt have shared some magic at some stage.

As for the comparison with JWH, agreed, he is a shitto that is right up there with Latrell.

Have you watched the Presser?  If so, what are your thoughts on how Bennett handled it?

I love how he handled it mate, now the media can write stories about that rather than get into Latrell more.

Comes with such little understanding of the game. Embarrassing really

Give me a break mate, all you do is lay the boot in and I am sick of it.

How dare you say I have little understanding of the game, that’s a horrid thing to say to someone.

Grow up!

Getting an early start on Six Can Saturday?

Hopefully Lucy can get through the 80 tonight, that’d be a good result.

Curious what price Mitchell will be next week guys ?

Yeah, this forum will do it to you

Egan facing suspension

So he should be. Grade 2 contrary conduct is fair for mine. One week with an early plea.
