I think the initial timeframe was 12 weeks.

Absolutely nothing wrong with Stefano as a backup option

I probably wouldn't bother grabbing SOS myself if I had others making money but my 18-21 is pretty dire.. Croker, Averillo, and Simonsson aren't looking too promising. Would be nice to fix one of those (Croker). I'm probably happy to sit on the other two for a while. The alternative is to wait and see if some other cheapies pop up in the short term (they probably will)

does anyone have any info on the bayley sironen injury? i thought he had that shoulder issue a couple weeks ago but haven't seen anything after the past game/this week after not being named. Jazz could be tempting even with jtb and afoa back next week

Geezuz you fantasy players are a fickle lot

Last week Schuster was getting the VC

This week he can't crack the 17



(Yes, I know why he was getting the VC)

I also pick my bench based off who scored the most points last week

yeah, for Croker seems a no brainer for sure mate. I have Simo but can't justify spending over 100K on SOS, would be for Leniu. I'll grab Suaalii maybe, someone base. Yeah, Stefan looking the goods as good cover. I think for Croker mate, go for it. Avo is playing but he is a spud but again you're spending almost 100K if you upgrade him to SOS, so maybe not worth it.

Schuster looks the most likely for a breakout score to, like one that ud be angry to miss

Latest: @NZWarriors Addin Fonua-Blake out for 6-8 weeks at best with knee injury, potentially longer, out for an "extended period". Massive blow @NRLcom

F*ck that is a blow. Make two big off-season signings in AFB and Aitken and both out long-term within the first month, as well as a long-term injury to your starting halfback + Hiku & a few poorly timed suspensions in the front row.

Somehow that's barely even a top 3 injury list (Knights, Roosters, maybe Sea Eagles probably all have it worse).

Only upside is a fairly favourable draw in that 6-8 week period: Manly x2, Cows x2, Dragons, Tigers (Storm & Eels also sandwiched in).

Think Topine probably bit of a trap with Jackson & Thompson back

From what I can gather, I think Katoa doesn't play 80 at HOK and then Topine fills in rest at HOK

Probably won't be getting Tapine like scores by Topine like last week

Can see Topine getting time at Hooker, then move to an edge for woeful Waddel. Topine was one of Bulldogs best (although his service from dummy half wasn't great), but made 46 tackles, missing none and helped spark their attack, which is desperately needed.

Chris Garry
@ChrisGarry7
Kevin Walters says Anthony Milford has NOT done enough... yet.... to warrant a new contract... which from Kevvie is a pretty bold statement. Walters says he hopes Milford does show enough but its yet to happen.

Nothing wrong with that from Kev and if I am Milf, it demonstrates I am definitely wanted at the club - but I need to have a big few games to make it easier for the club to justify their decision.

Results aside, I actually think Milf has been playing quite well this year and is probably just a big game or two away from taking a lot of the pressure off himself.

I also think the Broncos in general have improved and there is certainly no shame in losing to the Eels (should have won), Titans and Storm.

Helped spark attack and scoring 0 points doesn’t compute for me

I'll be angry if Warriors don't flog Manly

Hmmm....makes SOS more appealing.

Perfectly set up for a narrow Manly win. Just one of those games

On the back of a Schuster double no doubt

Thoughts on the CTR position over the next few weeks. Im looking to bring in Rapa, Olam, Graham or Kelly. Who do we think has the most upside/potential? What would you order them in?

Im leaning towards Rapa just for the dual and averaging 6tb's a game.

JTurbo will be playing Origin mate.  So will Papa.

Jurbo would have to be a contender to be dropped, currently there on reputation, certainly not on form.

surely you can use the money better somewhere else than adding a centre that will get on average 10ish points more than the usuals suspects i'd imagine in your team (roberts, Nui, bird etc . .)
