    Ponga Yeo the Mann wrote:7 red dots this week despite holding sione, grant and koroisau of late. Horrible season for injuries for me as for most. Has taken a fair bit of the fun out of it tbh but plenty worse off than me I’m sure

    Trading lolo and playing with 15 this week leaving me with 1 trade and hoping haas mofo Koro and maybe even sione can make an appearance soon

    As a knights fan and a Pearce, ponga owner I’m sad Lino is starting. Not good enough. Play Mann or pheonix there and give Randall the bench hooker spot. O’Brien has done a lot right this year but his handling of Randall will mean people in our reserves are likely to want to move on as they don’t get given chances even 4-5 injuries deep

    It might just be a GK thing, Ponga's GK has left a lot to be desired recently and F/A will be crucial for Knights in run to finals

    Martin's been playing well in a winning team. It was probably a toss-up between him and Capewell before the season. Capewell edged it them, but Martin has put himself ahead now.

    Capewell might get a start if Kikau/Yeo are rested before the finals but otherwise looks an ideal 14 who can cover back row and 3/4s.

    Capewell was injured at the start of the year, and replaced Martin as starter as soon as he was fit.

    Panthers have won a lot of games since then so they may stick with Martin. I won't be surprised whichever way they go.

    Lolo to Matto
    1 trade left
    349k bank

    Hunt
    Aloiai Carrigan
    Young Matterson Tevaga
    DCE Moses
    Crichton Lomax
    Brimson Tedesco Ponga

    Mann Flanagan Sironen Havili
    Randall McIntyre Fotuaika Haas

    At this stage just lacking CTR cover, can go Randall to any CTR really looking at the WFB/CTR DPP of Hopoate or heaven forbid Latrell (again) will look to see what happens after this round

    2 trades left, down to 16 on the field thanks to HTF

    Is it worth going HTF to someone around his worth??

    Don't have any cash ITB - should I just play 16 and wait for Haas & Koro to return?

    My Poor team:

    My number 1 disappointment for the year was not getting McInnes. I could bring him in for Lolo this week, but it's probably not worth it (would mean double trading to get Haas back next week). Still cuts seeing him in everyone else's teams.

    HTF not being named means I will have to play with 16 this week. No point wasting a trade for 17 for 1 week while I have Haas and Mofo to come back next week. Just gotta decide who to trade Lolo for.

    Last week Koro beat Matto 4-1 in TU/TD. Koro had just scored 88.

    One 86 later, Matto is now beating Hunt 5-1 as I type this.

    Last week Hunt was a top 3 captaincy choice amongst top teams (with McInnes and Cleary), so presumably ahead of both.

    So much recency bias.

    Just run with the 16 and have peace of mind that Hammer was only gonna score 15 points anyway

    If youre going to do it, do it with Niu or Wiliame. Both no chance of playing again

    I was waiting for Capewell return for CTR but don't think he replaces Martin. Just going to get Lomax finally and be done with it

    Just had a quick look through the top 20 for how many red dots each team has, here's the breakdown:

    3 red dots: 2 teams
    4 red dots: 6 teams
    5 red dots: 8 teams
    6 red dots: 3 teams
    7 red dots: 1 team

    Carnage all round. Hope they've saved some trades.

    Do you have back-up for Api? Isn't he only out this week? Henceforth he probably scores more than any of those guys, doesn't he?

    I love that he might actually score some points for once having owned him from R9

    It's a wild rollercoaster ride which I can't recommend

    Twal
    Pro's: - Average of 60 playing 50+ minutes for the year.
    Con's: - Madge chops and changes his mind all the time. Could affect his minutes.
    - Injury recurrence is a possibility.

    McGuire
    Pro's: - Cheaper
    - Without Lolo, his minutes should stay high.
    Con's: - Loves to get himself suspended.
    - Could spend a lot of time standing under the goal posts against Storm and Panthers.
