I think it's quite a transitional squad.
Under a different coach, they could easily have been in the same position the Cowboys and Broncos find themselves in.
To my mind, they're definite overachievers in the comp.

Doesn't change anything tbh mate. Liddle still plays 50-60 regardless I reckon.

Birdy and the Jets:
Roberts is up against Wright, Lemuelu, and Taulagi who leaked 5 tries last week. Madge would be mad to not have a gameplan that involved throwing a lot of traffic to the Cowboys right edge. Cowboys are a rabble right now and the Tigers have at least looked slick in parts this season.
Bird facing Lane, Niukore, Ferguson- a much harder defensive opposition and a danger to giving up a few MTs marking the much larger Niukore. Dragons recent success has been against bottom teams and a castrated Knights squad, I expect a sharp bounce back to reality when the Eels show the gap in where the teams are at.
Verdict:
In a vacuum I think Bird is the better fantasy option, but despite us always discussing how the draw is inconsequential, I am backing Roberts to get in on the action in a team scoring points rather getting dominated. His individual matchups are more promising whereas Bird’s look quite challenging, and that was enough to get me across the line.
Roberts is the other side isn't he (that's the Cowboys right edge). Roberts is still right side isn't he? He'd be up against cow's left.
Edit: in which case, insert bird is the word gif.

Feels like the Sharks never really got past the idea of Morris being an interim coach, even when from the outside it looks like he’s done a great job with a below average roster.

Ranked 2k, 892/C with liddle, Laurie and Roberts to play. Little bit below par of a score this week but I've banked 2 trades and have 220k to spend on upgrading the cheese.
The safe play is to grab Tony Harris but gambling on Tevaga could pay off huge.
Landed my first good multi yesterday in the Titans V Knights game yesterday. Had Randall, Thompson, Fifi any time try scorer and titans 13+

Same when Souths are on I’m too invested to check fantasy so do it on the way back to carpark.Archer wrote:I post and check scores if I'm watching a neutral game, can't do it during a raiders game though most times, too invested in how the team is performing IRL to give a shit whether Gupta is giving cleary some of Wightons Tb's again.

I feel bad for John Morris. I think he’s done a very good job especially with all the injury carnage.

This is good for John Morris, he's made a hell of an impression with a less than ideal situation. He's had the players come out and say that they love playing for him because he goes in to bat for them. He's going to come out of this smelling like roses. He'll 100% get a coaching gig again and hopefully at a club that really respects his talent.
