Hopefully Starling likes a scoot

Hey mate, pretty sure the story with Averillo is he can't train or play until his parents pass a follow up covid test on Sunday. With Dogs playing on Saturday he won't be able to play.

No idea why he's in reserves but that's the story I've read and heard a few times.

Yeh he would, just think in that scenario Oates would go to a 60 minutes role, still decent value for the outlay mind you, and i don't know about the make-up when Lodge returns, I think TPJ is best utilized in the middle, were I Seilbold i'd keep him there and use Lodge as a bench forward, with the change in play and constant interruptions, he seems a step behind this year, but then I'm not Seibold, so who knows.

When out of forwards, with the full forward pack back, far more likely he starts scoring tries on the wing

I've captained the likes of Leilua and Teddy for 30 scores.  
I've also captained the likes of Pearce, Moses and Teddy for 60's and 70's.

I like to live dangerously.

A huge feeling of gratitude to have a community such as this forum to be able to talk nonsense on and off the field. Despite the poor product I don't see myself enjoying the game as much without NRL Fantasy.

That being said, good luck to everyone this week and hope the trades you do or don't do work out in your favor.

Let's go Captain Angus!

Scored over 100 first round of reserve grade

surmo13 wrote:keep being tempted by Oates, with Glenn out long term and Fifita out a while longer, putting a 311k likely-80-minute edge forward in my WFB for a few weeks with that whole CTR/WFB being a complete mess seems like a no-brainer.

There was this on TLT on Dogs website:

In other team news Jake Averillo has been cleared by the NRL to be available this weekend after Jake's parents tested negative and with Jake not currently living with his parents, he has been given the all clear to train and play. Averillo has been named on the extended bench.

Ahh ok cheers I thought that might have been the case. I guess I have to hold him though as he is my only CTR cover and I only have the 8 trades as tempting as it is to get Starling in

Been away from the site for a while and just been doing my own thing with my team

Currently, I have Su'A and JHop to Hunt and Starling locked in. How does that look for the moment?

Madge does seem to like Smackintyre.  

I think the kid must have just kept developing, because went from a Centre to a Second Rower to a Middle quite quickly.  He’s been playing more a Lock role, standing a little wider on occasion, but defs playing that middle role and that’s what he looks like continuing.

I can’t believe Packer has been given another crack. Madge obviously wants mongrel, but Smackintyre looks like he’s got a fair bit of it as well.
