Latrell, BJ or Ramien for boom/bust rollercoasters. Just try to pick the right one.

I’ve already owned latrell and BJ (and shiba, williame, niu, capewell, chrichton best and avarillo) so won’t go back.

Ramien is a good shout.

Has anyone done the Munster scores with Smith out comparison yet?  From memory Munster picks up the KM's but that's just from memory.  Due a brace too!

There aren’t many games available. A 48 in Rd11 in 2018 haha

I’m sold!

This is Smith first missed game due to injury since 2014 and I think only 5th or 6th of his career. Which is mental.

Can't believe no mention of Farnworth at CTR. Was looking forward to his DPP and 60pts first loop last week was gravy

EDIT: Ok someone mentioned Herbie

Wowsers! Must be thinking of Munster without Cronk then, which would be a no brainer anyway.

Bloke definitely needs that brace then.

Would love to get DCE vs Warriors. I reckon 80pt floor but Munster discount is tempting. Don't think I've ever owned after 7 years of playing fantasy. Cue injury if I buy

They play the Warriors twice as well, this round & the last round 20.

I don't know why and I could be totally wrong but this season I feel my halves (Cleary and DCE) score better in the tighter games. This is just from the eye test though, could be wrong but I just get that vibe that I'd prefer them to play in a tight game not sure why lol.

This is true the big name players love the tough games & they thrive off the pressure & atmosphere. They love the vibe. In the tough games they become more dominant/touch the ball more which leads to higher scores. But I can't see DCE taking his foot off the pedal because Manly are just outside the 8 & he needs to step up. Same with Cleary with the Panthers fighting for the number 1 spot.

Oh yeah for sure mate, I was just purely talking from a fantasy perspective. No way Cleary or DCE take their foot off the pedal against any team in real life

Sorry guys but as previously said 100s of times opposition rarely means much especially with the uber guns

Just changed my plan from using one trade to two. Normally I would hold the 2nd trade but since it's Luai and I was always going to do it anyway, I figure I might as well go now while I can.

My 2 trades this week are:

Flanno to Munster
Luai to Moses

This leaves me with 4 trades, 34k in the bank and the following side, which I am happy to sit on if I need to, as my 17 is set once I get Papy and Grant back.

Mann
Haas, Carrigan
Yeo, Lolo, Tevaga
Cleary, Munster
Lomax, Crichton
Ponga, Teddy, Talau

Fotu, Moses, Averillo, HTF

Randall, Grant, Papy, Niu

Once I get the cavalry back, I would be either playing Randall as 17th if he gets back in and can get decent mins, or otherwise looping the last spot between Avo, Talau and HTF

Looks good. You should swap Fotu and Carrigan for coverage though.

You are swaying me but FRF final 17 cover I need plus Munster instead of DCE means I can straight upgrade likes of Ikuvalu next week to Ponga with nice set of fixtures

I usually do, just forgot to swap them back after I reversed my Niu to Hetherington plan

Just 1 trade for me this week despite my urge to move on Matterson as well. Going Havili to Thompson.

I have 5 halves would you sell Luai & buy Tevaga. So my 2 trades (leaves 5) would be:
C. Smith out - DCE in
Luai out - Tevaga in

Mann
Haas (c), J. Paulo
Taumalolo, Yeo, Tevaga
Cleary, DCE
S. Crichton, Talau
Tedesco, Ponga, HTF

B. Hunt, Carrigan, Young, B.Sironen
Randall, Grant, Pappy, Wiliame

Cheers.

Do it, you were probably going to sell Luai anyway, might as well get a guy who seems to be banging out 60s for fun

So joined up with a Gridiron group this past week. Had the first training hit out and about died. Guess that is what i get for avoiding any cardio for the last 28 years. Fuck me, and now i get to sort out my rabble.

I know Best went to see a surgeon today do we have a report on that?
