No news on NRL.com yet on judiciary from yesterday’s matches

But there is a “Legend Q&A” on, wait for it... Blake Ayshford.

Mofo grade 1 but thats now 2 weeks with early plea.

Ouch.

Will need a prop next week now...

Haha my FR destroyed one consecutive weeks by crusher tackles

There’s no way I’m getting thru the last 5 weeks with 2 trades then. Fair to say I wasted a few/lost my discipline from the Harvey Norman bonus trade round onwards.

RIP season 2020, looking forward to 2021

I think it's only 1 week early guilty plea as it's 200 points base charge

From article: https://www.nrl.com/news/2020/08/21/round-15-charges/

Titans prop Moeaki Fotuaika is facing a two-week ban after being charged with a crusher tackle offence in his side's loss to Canberra on Saturday.

The match review committee decided that a 58th-minute tackle on Jarrod Croker was worthy of a charge.

An early guilty plea would reduce the ban to one match.

Mate you know how it works we all do, he was never getting off as he doesn’t wear a Storm jersey.

Anyhow I’d say I will hold MoFo and just play Koala and Siro.

Apart from that I’m on a high, I feel like I died and went to heaven last night thanks to those Mighty Rabbitohs, biggest half time lead ever in our history.

Lucy, Taupau and Siro all letting new down so far, like last week I feel a bit off the pace again.

14/793 for me with Lolo, Ponga and Pearce to come. Surely Pearce is due.

Cheers. Updated 1216, I was about 15 minutes too early then spent the last 30 mins reading interviews with Blake Ayshford, Robbie Ross, Jason Hetherington et al.

Really love the ARL/Super League signing stories. “You’re a reserve grader on 12k, here’s a 50k signing bonus with no obligations”

I don’t think there’s a Storm conspiracy and I’m ok with cracking down on crusher tackles but NAS copping a small fine for his hit is bizarre.

Ah yes, my bad.

Frustrating that haas misses next week as well. Ended up banking enough cash to get him back in one trade but thats obviously useless next week

Did anyone jump on Wallace?

46 in 46mins yesterday. Now with MoFo out its better for him.

Lol, just traded Mofo in and I have 2 trades left with no prop cover

Now I get to have Carrigan and Aloiai as my starting props with the Hammer in my 17.

Fark the NRL is going to shit now. Refs getting worse every week, new stupid rules coming in. I understand the players' health is a priority but why change the charge points so close to finals? There was nothing in Mofo's tackle, Croker backs into the tackle I honestly don't understand what Fotuaika is meant to do there, it's not like he can magically disappear? Fkn ridiculous.

Dogs 1-17, Warriors 1-17 except Paul Turner debuting at 7

Same scenario here except I got him ages ago.

I'll either run with 16 or take a punt on Wallace as a cheap 17th man option.

I need a centre this afternoon. One with a high baseline and high ceiling.

Shib is perhaps the best on paper, but Hopoate at FB is an interesting option.
They will need to outscore 31 or I look silly.

Thoughts?

If turner comes out and kills it he’ll probably hold his spot for the year. Over to you young fella

MilfordTheMagician wrote:Lol, just traded Mofo in and I have 2 trades left with no prop cover

Dunno if there's other viable options and cash situation, but Jo Ofa wasn't bad with 46 in 57. I figured he'd be around 40 in 50 mins based on past performance.

Assuming he keeps Flegler's spot over Kennedy when Haas returns.

Worst case possible for Suli suffering a lisfranc injury (pretty sure the same one as Horse?) anyways he will require surgery and be out 3 months minimum. Saw it on nrlphysio. So who goes to centre now for manly?
