    Pretty funny to be 2/227 and drop 1000 ranks

    Momo looks gr8 at centre, surely it is the other pieces that get shuffled. I think, was it Jumpin Marlin with the Momo job security stirring, was just that, stirring. 

    Schuster brilliant, I think not everyone is actually watching games. Plus we spend all week chatting about who to pick and why, but in some of our discussions it is not clear if that poster is looking to start that player they might bring in etc... Schuster was clearly making cash, and even seemed gud to go as a starter. But a player so fresh and new, he was never a locked in established 60+ captain gun. 

    I haven't read back through the pages, but I assume everyone uninstalled and reinstalled the app ?

    Happy Easter yo !

    Mate its like Ennis in the pre game show last night suggesting manly should look at moving on DCE. He suggested it out of thin air, but you can bet this will turn into an ongoing 'story' now.


    He's not "at risk" of being dropped, but Crichton was pretty poor at fullback (yes, the team still spanked Manly) and if they try Staines there instead then Crichton will almost certainly go back to centre and Momo will go to wing.

    Howdy Y'all,
    I think the need to play these bench MIDs stems from the fact that most of the value cows were (and continue to be) HLFs, but they aren't players you could confidently put in your 14-17, eg. Moylan, Croker & Co. A guy like Leniu or Alvaro, whilst from the context of the fantasy meta of avoiding bench forwards aren't great plays, became the more logical option within the context of this year's game.

    Forwards were really thin on the ground this year. There were very few mid-range-MIDs on offer; Lodge looked a good prospect but got hurt, Tino was a big risk, and Welch was about the only other option. Crichton probably ended up at EDG given the dearth of options (and those that existed - Host and Gosi - were trash). 

    All this meant that they're required to play in the 1-13, where a 29 or a 31 looks far more concerning than when its on the bench.  They're still averaging 33-40 points though, so at least doing their job.

    I'm sure the coach will stick with Crichton, surely. I didn't watch him though so maybe there is merit to swapping. I guess it's tough, what happens then when Edwards is back? Burton looked really good in the centres and they attacked on his side more which was surprising.

    Yeah, can’t see anything other than a late chance to experiment in a blowout.

    Panthers rotations were hard to follow all game. At one point they had Leota, Leniu, Eisenhuth and Yeo all off at the same time and playing a middle of JFH, Martin and May I think. May eventually moved to hooker but as a Leniu owner, bit worried about the amount of time he played as a middle forward. The Clearys seem to love him...

    Think the purpose of that was to have JFH, Yeo and Kenny all get a spell in a blow out. I still expect in a competitive game May goes to hooker. Leniu seems to play a shorter first stint then come back on for a second

    They brought it on themselves. Never tempt the fantasy gods by bagging out a half time score. I think Welshy even said it at the time.

    I think they just really prefer attacking that left edge with kikau luai and to’o, Crichton did struggle a bit positionally caught on the tryline not coming up when Cust got through, didn’t cover a 5th tackle 40/20 and was no where to be seen on their attacking structures. As soon as Staines moved to fb they had a play down the right with him out the back and looked very good

    The problem is, his second stint in the last 6-7 minutes of the game is is the worst time for forwards to rack up points. Late tries, kick for touch, slow plays, just not a great sign.

    Really worried for Hudson next week. Not sure where his scores will come from given its impossible for Cleary to miss tackles...
