Shame about McInnes one of the ones that made the most sense to DPP they won’t give it too

Haha, really?

Hi Welshy, let me introduce you to Fanhub. Fanhub, this is Welshy. Welshy likes to swear in colourful and exotic ways. Fanhub likes to make shit up as they go along in regards to rulings within their fantasy rugby league game. I'm sure you two will get along just fine.

Only reason I'm getting TommyT is that his cheaper and has a high possibility in obtaining Dual CTR/WFB.

Assuming they both don't get DPP you'd still lean more towards Talau? Price isn't a big factor given 267k v 272k

Possibly sell Katoa depending on length of injury. I haven't heard if it is more than 1 week as of yet. Anyone know?

Yea well just heard the news that TommyT wont getting dual anymore. Hmm, that's a shame. Although I still think slightly just TommyT over Averillo as he doesn't play for the doggies.

With Talau and Niu, does dpp matter that much, or do people really need a WFB? Or just for future flexibility? I suppose maybe with Turbo and potentially Teddy. For me it's more important they are available at centre anyway, as I've got Ponga, Pappy, HTF and in a pinch can move Crichton and Best there.

Maybe not. Possibly one of them goes.

Looking at that full-strength Roosters 21 and as a Friend and Ted owner I reckon neither of them play vs Dragons with no reserve grade and Melbourne up next. All of 18-21 could come into first 13 and they still should win comfortably.

I don't think you could really make much of a case for MC9 getting DPP.

With Ted, if they were definitely going to rest him, why even name him?

Katoa has to go for me to be able to field 17

Agreed, I can’t see either of Teddy or Friend playing.

Named teams never mean anything to Robinson. They've named their strongest 13 and their best 8 reserves and can fix the details later.

Robinson always tends to do that, always has.

What a flog.

They always name them to start even if they are doubtful to play mind games with the opposition. Robbo loves it, has been doing it for years on years now and it seems to be working lol. I don't reckon Teddy will play, Bmoz to FB and hall to the wing. We should beat this dragons team comfortably either way and seeing we have melbourne the following week, may aswell keep Teddy fresh and ready to go.

What position does McInnes play for the ~60 minutes he and Luke/Hunt are on the field together?

Did they not have to be named in that position to get DPP?

I reckon Friend is likely to be rested too.

I have found myself in a bit of a situation. As I have 2 2nd rowers not playing and no 2nd row cover Im bringing in yeo and someone else this week.
 Option 1 are get any cheapie and if they arent second row just have 16 for the week
Option 2 Get a cheapie in the 2nd row thats not as good 
Option 3 get RFM or Lawrie but no spare money next week to get another gun.
