    Really interesting movie. Can't remember the last time I was looking forward to seeing a movie a 2nd time

    Yeah, totally agree.
    A lot of people have said it's a masterpiece on the second viewing, it certainly would make a lot more pieces fit together.

    Having 18 fit players this round should help me get back into the top 100 and hopefully join L1 next year.

    why do you want to come 16th in L1 rather than 1st in L2 ?

    Them: Starling, Twal, Murray (73), A Crichton, Cleary, B Lee, S Crichton, Hynes, Ponga (c)

    Me: CS9, Taupau, Jurbo, Tevaga, Fog, Peachey, Lomax, HTF, CM9 (c)

    Not off to the best start for me with Murray going big, and I was already the underdog I reckon. Hoping Ponga (c) backfires on them.

    As it stands my two hail mary plays are basically: loop in Randall instead of matching Siro to get another unique, and trade in Turbo instead of Edwards for the same reason.

    I think Siro and Edwards are the smarter plays, so it has a chance to backfire. Would you do either?

    Bump. Any advice on this? Need to decide before Cowboys v Panthers lockout.

    Ive had two beers and a quick read, and struggled to see what the options were.

    Turbo vs Edwards ?

    Id probably go turbo but its a complete lottery.

    Id probably take a punt on randall scoring more than siro

    Yeah that's it in a nutshell, likely to lose my head to head, so punting on Turbo outscoring Edwards and Randall outscoring Siro to give me a couple more PODs in the matchup.

    6 (incl captain) tonight. Dropped 40 spots last night only having Averillo, so hopefully get some good scores.

    Picking a guy to go big on any given week is pretty damn hard.

    It will probably end up being someone that we arent talking about like cotric or brimson that scores a 90+

    Just a gut call really.

    I guess with Tommy Turbo there is a risk he is nowhere near match fit and has a fairly quiet game because of it. Im still leaning towards grabbing him.. i think.. haha

    FWIW, I’ve tipped Manly this week and am also bringing in Turbo, although I’ll be waiting for final team lists before doing so, with Brimson my back up plan.

    Really excited to watch Tommy Turbo tomorrow. Such a dud round, will be great to have him and Taumalolo back just from a footy POV.

    Leaning towards playing Starling this week over Sironens score of 41, but I'll ask the audience anyway so...

    Thumbs up to take Siro's 41, Thumbs down to play Starling

    Turbo is starting this week. Has been moved into fullback in the first cut.

    Ordinarily I’d take Starling without question.
    The previous 2 weeks I’ve taken starling over a loop of 43 both times and it worked out favourably.
    However Stuart has said that he wants to get some minutes up for Havili.
    Whether that impacts Starling or not, is anybody’s guess.
    I’d still take Starling.
