If Blore actually starts he is probably the best cash cow option this week

Competition is Eisenhuth and Elijah Taylor right (plus I guess Seyfarth) - how likely will he be to keep the spot.
Looks like Taylor is out of the plans, but Eisenhuth may get a run

Problem like all cash cows at this point - will you have the trades to profit from the cash. He might be a scoring option for 3-6 weeks (or whatever Twal is out for) and then be stuck in your squad doing nothing.

Doesn't necessarily mean he won't be worth a trade in, but its something to consider.

Question for the brains trust - if the Dragons give Graham an immediate release, who picks up the minutes in their pack? Id Lawrie likely to get more minutes? He proved last year that he's capable of busting out 50s, DPP nice for cover as well.

If acquitted, JDB

His reserve grade fantasy scores are nothing special.

He played 90 minutes of reserve grade last year. Its not a lot to make a prediction on.

But its still a big possibility he doesn't get big minutes/score, even if he does start

Shawn Blore is a fake name. It's gotta be.

Where are you finding minutes played? I can only find the rest of his reserve grade stats.

nswrl.com.au still has last years draw and game stats available

How did Eisenhuth go last week? For whatever reason he’s on the outer but can play big mins, bit weird that a rookie would jump in front of him.

This would get me going

Wests Tigers trio Alex Twal (knee), Robert Jennings (hamstring) and Zane Musgrove (foot) are expected to miss Sunday's clash with Canterbury.

The Tigers are awaiting scan results to confirm the extent of the injuries. An initial diagnosis for Twal was an MCL injury which could keep him out for a month.

In better news for Michael Maguire's team, young outside back Tommy Talau is fit for selection after overcoming a hamstring complaint.

Playmaker Tyrone Roberts is set to make his comeback from an ankle injury against Brisbane in a timely boost for the Titans.

Cowboys coach Paul Green expects stars Valentine Holmes (ankle) and Jordan McLean (calf) to miss the round seven clash with Newcastle. The pair didn't play last week's loss to the Tigers.

Those selling Paix and Luai this week. Are you running without halves cover?

Is Katoa in doubt an actual thing? I assumed he was sweet because he came back on.

Turbo and Carrigan out, if Teddy and Katoa both are as well, I'm playing 16. I still feel this is kinda like Monty Burns having nine misfortunes befall his softball team level likely, but nervousness has increased slightly.

P.S. sad I missed the rise and fall of Lele this morning.

Only own Luai but I'll have Cleary/DCE starting with Fogarty as cover

I have a feeling Warriors will come out firing this weekend... just sucks its up against the Storm.

Mulvy wrote:Those selling Paix and Luai this week. Are you running without halves cover?

Would love to sell both but just one leaving this week.

Really hoping Talau plays this week

I could pick up Lachlan Croker, but I've owned him before and is rather underwhelming. Would love a cheap half to pop up. I also want a cheap centre, maybe Averillo or Talau or someone else to pop up.

Yeah just want the kid in my team, has been so close to starting so many times for about 4 years, going to be fired up, finally getting his first start. Was injured at Eels when he should have got his first shot.

Didn't really need a cheap WFB this week, and may not get job security, but will back him to force his way into starting each week. Broncos not a bad team first up to help him with that too.

How long are the injured Titans backs out for though?

He may only get a couple of weeks.

Unfortunately them coming out firing would just mean the margin of defeat might be 10 points rather than 20-30.

They'll either come out firing or completely capitulate. I don't see much of in between happening.
