57 is not terrible.

There have been some downvote gremlins around the past few weeks and they seem to be targeting specific posters.

That comment from Tallis lol

Fletcher "ill shout us some Chinese"

Tallis "food as well"

All of these things. Fucksake. I'm not one to go from Haas, to Teddy to Cleary like some of these guys in the top 20. First time I've gone away from Haas and not because of the the match up. Mostly blame Klein haha, I don't think he's biased, just shit. But man that was a weird fucking annoying game to watch. At least Lomax finally stopped shredding me. #littlevictories

Yep first time I've moved away from Haas as captain. Not a disaster score by McIness but puts up his worst score all year this week. Cheers buddy.

lol. Thankfully, I dumped him three weeks ago. Okay score tonight (with a lot of irregular additions), but no regrets at all.

Yep, happy as a non-owner, his 77 run meters this week says I made the right choice dumping him, good for my mental health

Well, all the best mate, I think I'm just about cooked.

RM mean absolutely nothing to a Latrell score, otherwise why did you dump Papy when all he had was huge RM every week?

Absolutely not! It’s one week mate

Quietly confident siro will put up some good numbers when he finally gets to play his edge role.

When I brought Latrell in, it was because he was running the ball on early tackles and breaking tackles doing it, which gave him great base. He stopped doing that, so my reason to have him disappeared. 

Papy was different, he wasn't part of the structured attack for Melbourne, was having to try to create things on his own. You want fullbacks that are a key part of the structured attack and are getting base stats as well.

Had 4 players in that game so was a little underwhelming but at least no one was injured which is a big plus. First time captaning Cook, was very close to being a good pick. McInnes solid but slight unders. Happy with Hunt and Latrell score saved by his try. Spent 30 mins spitting chips for holding him there, he spent a fair amount of time in the trade out column but somehow survived. Finally a round where trading out Lomax in round 2 pays off. Need a few more of those to lessen the nightmares from selling.

Who did you end up replacing him with for your WFB3?
You have Teddy and Ponga if I remember.

Yeah, that's the thing for me. 57 is a solid captain's score, but it's not why one puts the C on McInnes, who has averaged 73 so far this year.

I'll cop it, but it'd be an untruth to say I wasn't a tad disappointed with it.

Kind of wish I had Siro in my 17 but hoping Starling and Randall can top 43.

Have both. Brought in Edwards the week he got injured of course.

I won't be giving up. And I'm generally optimistic, and I like my team, but I'm also a realist. To win this thing you need a lot of luck and good management, I've had plenty of luck already and don't deserve anymore, and made a couple of terrible trades. I'll keep on truckin' though.

Zero issue with McInnes as captain! I’ve taken Cleary and 106, Mcinnes and his 80+ few other big ones, taken some unders. All levels out in the end mostly.

Talking like you are well back mate! 8 weeks to go, plenty of time to keep pushing shit will happen at the top as well! Long season left

Wait hold on a minute, they have Hunt down for 1 missed tackle tonight? That's laughable. I swear I saw him miss plenty tonight, even when he shifted to hooker for the last 15 he missed 1 or 2. I'm an owner myself and really hope they keep it as 1, just funny how they've scored him tonight lol.
