1st. Goodnight.

Captain Moses was ok, hopefully updates are kind.

I miss the late night drunk conversations we used to have on here and on sportal.

Bit of a meh start so far. Nothing wrong with Cleary (c) but my other players with 40s and 30s (JFH & Yeo)

346/6(c) with likely 16 players

Just read this - how stupid.

Got my two worst players out of the way (Asi and Farnworth), haven't had captain play and still averaging over 55 per player. If AFB played this could have been a monster

559/9 (C Cook) The 35 from HTF was greatly appreciated

416/7c - fifita's 30 hurts but would have been far worse if he hadn't got the try before being injured

I see wiliame and Talau are still purple dots......

In a 15 man game he who has 16 is king

Crichton or Bateman?

A true 50/50 this one. I'd lean towards Bateman because his role is secure, who knows what is going to happen with Crichton next week once Cordner is back. Will he be used as a bench middle for 40 minutes? Will he start at lock and play 80? Will he be on the edge?

Thanks - I was leaning towards Bateman because of the security. I think I’d prefer Crichton if I was sure he was going to have a big role in R20

Interested in this. Wouldn’t Crichton be ahead of Sitili in the pecking order? or is it a left edge/right edge thing? Didn’t Crichton start on the edge earlier in the season (with Cordner) and then move into the middle at various points in some games? Seems like a perfect fantasy combination...

Robbo seems to be rewarding Tupouinua for a fantastic season by giving him the starting spot. If the grand final was being played this week I have no doubt Crichton would be on the edge

Crichton has always been the kind of edge player that floats to the middle in defense. That's how he managed to average 34 tackles as an edge player in his break out season. He still hasn't found his best offensively at the Roosters so still doubt his ceiling without tries. At Souths he put up multiple 75+ scores without tries

Loving the uncertainty around Crichton scaring people off him. He has played both edges this season.

Doesn't make much of a difference when there's one and a half rounds to go.

Saying that, I'd prefer Crichton.  Don't see Cordner playing til finals.

Im very suggestible, swinging back towards Crichton hahaha
