Put it this way, its like someone offered you $14 odds on DCE anytime tryscorer in the second half and you wacked a big dicked $300 on it. Pretty fair odds I reckon, mad not to splash some dough!

Yeah that's how I looked at it too.

Unlucky mate. Heart in mouth stuff when DCE kicked for himself and Guth the prick cleaned up Manly could barely complete a set after that.

Tough loss tonight but to lose on goal kicking when we are missing at least 4 regulars and couldn’t play much worse than that doesn’t have me overly worried. 775 with 4 to play and that includes Talau,Niu,Young and Clune

that's actually pretty incredible, 6 out of 10 of his scores in the range of 54-56, reminds me of Matterson starting last year with three consecutive 51's

Lomax. Mr. 40.

He got to 63 but went to 56 in the last minute. No idea why. I saw him miss one tackle but not 4.

What happened with Brown, just a bad cork?
I am still interested in bringing him in if it was nothing major.

Sounds like a logical IF function.

IF Jake < 54
THEN 54

IF Jake > 56
THEN 56

May semi save his score, I have him in my 17

Me too, happy if he gets a 30 after not looking like beating Fog's score of 21 for 70 minutes on the loop.

605/11. Cleary (C), Ramien, SCrichton, JFH, Robson, Brailey to go.

Looking at mid 900s if the lads hit their averages. Have we got a gauge on par score yet?

I think not trading Fog to Hunt as I intended is probably my worst mistake this season. Costing me 50 points and a fair bit of cash.

Cook 95
Ponga 80
Pearce 53
Hunt 73
Lomax 48
RFM 65
Murray 61
Best 58
Mann 49
Macca 68

Sorry about the randomness of that.

DCE really starting to kick on now. Getting heaps more tries and TA's whilst maintaining those huge KM. Love it!

Yeah, would think mid 900's. The outlier's might make the actual Range larger than normal this week though-would think 1100 odd is the Weekly and at the other end of the scale some gun Fantasy players may not make 900.

When did you buy Fogarty?
Coming off a score of 65 with a 5 BE this week your team must be killing it for him to have been on the chopping block

Bought him the first week or two when he started. Do have most of the keepers I need and he was the only real upgrade target that I could use to get the Hunt; didn't want to move on SCrichton yet. Thought he would get within 20 of Hunt which would at least give me a 2nd look to see if Hunt was continuing to get the kick metres; didn't expect Fog to go from his best to his worst performance between weeks.

733/13, Koro, Lolo, Yeo and Clearo to come, averages would see me hit 990, so still an outside chance of four figures, but let's be honest, I'll be staring at a low 900's score this time tomorrow, that's usually how these things work.

Fair enough, just can't play this game living in regret after hindsight

I was tossing up between Johnson and DCE 3 weeks ago about which one to buy first (With the other the following)
Well went with Johnson and DCE became 1k too expensive for me to grab the following week
So made my cash out ready to grab him and DCE got even more expensive, so this week I let him go

Had to move on but then Hunt fell into my lap this week
Point is you don't know what will happen in the future, the past has happened so get over it
Just like life, worry about what you can control and you will find things become much more simple

Averages have me hitting 1000,requires Panthers to run roughshod tomorrow with Cleary,Yeo,Luai and Koro carving up hopefully. Didn’t seem possible when my shit CTRs scored 30 between them. Handy 40 from Clune

I struggle to cop a loss like that to a team that has just been getting towelled up by anyone over the last few weeks, but it is what it is. Like you say, nothing to worry about. Just a shit night. Eels really could not have played worse and they still got as close as they did which was kind of encouraging. Moses and Matterson back should hopefully fix things up again.

Yeah mate we need that organising half back again,Dylan and Field are ball runners so we lacked that structure that Mitch brings. Matto is the buy of the season in my eyes so that’s a big void to fill on that right edge. Also missing Stone,Kaufusi,Evans plus Browny only playing half the game. If we hadn’t have been sleepwalking that first 20 we would have rolled them. Try on halftime was decisive too. Oh and there’s a reason why George Jennings doesn’t play more often,he fucken sucks. Even an out of sorts Fergie is miles ahead of him
