968 with no Cleary makes me very happy. Pods Momi, Milf, SST and Fui all performed well. Will be able to field 17 this week with no trades but may consider punting Croker for the best cow.

952, not a bad start.
Happy enough with everyone's role/minutes, if not all their scores.
Decision will be whether I use one trade on Lodge to Lenui/Alvaro, or spend a second a second trade to get LAM/Ofa.

Gave Reed Mahoney a crack incase no one else had time.
No stress if someone else makes a better one.

Guy in first with Klemmer, Mahoney, Ofa, Latrell, Opacic, Flanno, Tevago, Matterson who are the guys not highly owned here pretty much priced around previous averages minus Ofa who goes around 10 above his price in 40-50 mins. Rest all just went big on the day with Matterson and Tevaga unders but priced correctly. Rest of team all guys heavily owned Cleary c, Brailey, Croker, Simmonsson, Stefano, Niu, Watson.

Just on that, Payton's reasoning on calling out Taumalolo is bizarre. That he needs to be fresh to do one-percenters in defence to set an example so the team does better.... no... because however much the team does better does not outweigh how the team benefits from Lolo attacking and scattering opposition defenders. Being the first guy to harry a kicker does not outweigh the 300m a game you're paying him to provide that nobody else in the NRL can give you. Anyone can pressure a kicker. It'd be like telling Thuston to up his defence and stop with the fancy stuff... the other players are there to fill in on the easy stuff, with Thurston/Lolo to do the spectacular.
Anyway, if Payton wants to start a war with Taumalolo in North Queensland I have a feeling he'll lose.
I agree, Lolo is a great weapon but he's the laziest defender. Pisses me off watching him. It's not NFL where you can play purely on offense or defense, you have to turn up for both. Payten is big on accountability, especially on defense. He took an abysmal Warriors team and almost made them finals worthy in the same season.

867 for the Plebs... keeping me humble
Always annoyed me you can't see H2H teams. What's the point

Probably leaning to luxury of no trades this week pending how team lists turn out, and just use Crichton as a loop to hopefully snag 30+ from my EMG (assuming he accepts 1 game ban and doesn't challenge)
Though my EMG is literally an emergency and probably needs a 000 call (Utoikamanu, Gosiewski, Niu, Simonsson). May be worth chasing someone with a low BE for Gosiewski if he's going to keep getting low mins

In a complete rookie error I kept Barnett in my team and missed Turpin. What should I do now ? His score was great as a one off, but thats with the try. Trade ?

Yeah agree with this. From a neutral stand point this is simply frustrating. From what I've seen of Lolo in the press, he will just say 'yes boss', seems so polite.

Some we're saying Bird looked hesitant, but he is coming back from injury etc so I thought he looked fine. He is often johnny on the spot, still the case last night. Had a try disallowed. Next week he will go 45 and all smiles.
Centres are gunna piss people off all year, if u allow it to. Not worth the time or trades.

One of my learned pieces of advise to myself is:
Don't make something a problem (e.g. Barnett) until it is actually a problem.

How do we rate the Lodge replacements (Ofa too rich for some so excluded). I am thinking this:
1. Leniu
2. Jensen
3. Alvaro
4. LAM
1. Leniu

I have the option to keep Lodge and just play Liddle. Worth a shot or just cut and get Ofa or someone like that?

Or Ofa for slightly more. I'm leaning towards Leniu.
