Round 1 - 35

5 - 73
6 - 73
7 - 31
17 - 72
25 - 40

399/7 = 57 avg but nothing between 40 or 72

boom or bust without him sort of?

Rd 7 31pts was in 47 mins I assume was injured as didn't play again until Rd 13

WT Winfield wrote:Eagerly awaiting someone to do the math on whether it's 57 or 61

either way he never scored within 10 of his average which seems quite the achievement

Juggernauts wrote:Considering getting Fotuaika, is it too late to jump on? Do we think he maintains his current average?

Not at all. He's averaging close to 60 and he's still under 700k. Even if he scores 60+ again he'll still be cheaper than a lot of the other guns.

He's looking like a keeper and it's never too late to get a keeper.

Good luck mate, I’ve still got Drinky but funny how a decent score can reset the thought process. With Brailey there was so much talk of attacking intent pre season I keep holding hope it will come but he’s been mediocre at best every time I’ve watched him

It's been pretty hmm and hasn't improved with the new rules...reminds me of starting with McCullough a couple of years ago where he just kept hitting his BE and when you watched him he just did the basic dummy half stuff of tackle and pass with absolutely no individual attacking intent. Very functional on the field and I'm sure some coaches love it, but not great for NRLF!

Good luck with whatever you choose this week as well!

JMK and Hopo are the two I have. Won’t be trading in anymore

Hoppo's fine mate should go well. JMK a bit of a worry if Holland coming in is a thing again.

Roberts back and Thompson fullback now

It would be Titans to drop Fogerty, but surely not.

If Katoa out I might cut loose and assuming don't need 2RF 2 possible trades are

A. Paix+Katoa > Averillo+Pearce +25k
B. Paix+Katoa > Niu+Mofo or up to 730k

I know I know! Tracey dropping off bench peaked my interest because there was a lot of talk of Brailey 80 at start of season and building towards that, I thought they were conditioning him to play 80 but seen none of the attacking intent he was kept starting for. only needs the attacking stat a rogue TA to get into 50s but looking more luck than judgement at the moment.

Its classic, as soon as you punt him he bags 60+

He’ll be trade fodder if it happens again so I’m on JMK watch this week minutes wise

Thompson and Sami expected to play, Roberts will be named as well.
Copley a good chance.
Young T grade 2 medial.
Pearson has a Pec strain

Greg L another option if named although any Katoa news could force me in another direction

Foxsports have confirmed the news:
"Greg Leleisiou is expected to make his NRL debut for the Titans against the Broncos."

It's foxsports mate - they are a bunch of muppets.

Stephen Crichton is shit isn't he? BE of 24 this week and future scoring in the 20's.
Have just discovered I can go Brailey and Crichton to Pearce and Will Hop. Won't exactly be racking in the cash but at least thats two I can play each week without worrying about a single digit score.
Hmmm the lack of a cow that's not an outside back is frustrating...where's origin when you need it?

While the injury is poor timing, it looks like I was wrong wanting Tonumaipea over Hammer. After his initial game that showed potential he has posted 2x sub 20s

Bold to burn more trades on a centre that is playing. As far as I'm concerned Crichton can stay as my CTR 2 for the rest of the year

Which trade-in option do you like - I'm selling Twal & Turbo:
(a) Ponga & RFM or
(b) Fotuaika & a wfb 748k or less (1 of Nofoaluma, L. Mitchell, Lomax, W. Hopoate)

Cheers.

Can you express that as a statistical percentage please.

Yeah for me he will be on the loop each week. Going to produce a blinder sooner or later, has hit 46 without a try and scored 2 tries off the bench. Would love Kikau to start finding an offload for him, rather than dying with ball in hand during his hit ups.

Yeah, just doing some rabbit style inner monologue stuff, apologies & carry on as you were.

I am actually going to get a decent gun half/hooker.
