I need any win I can get this year.

I was hoping for a glitch where Cleary would fall to 4.9% for a few seconds. Quick screenshot and hey presto. Didn't happen

Nice one.

Just Haas as cappo and Lodge for me.

Damn, had Bullemor on my bench but I had a bit of spare time this afternoon and looked a little closer at some past stats and I dismissed him. Yuck.

Already fucked this one up by picking and captaining Haas rather than waiting for his price to drop.

Haas (c) Lodge Yeo

Kennar

Kennar might even hold his spot?

I'd say must of us would have done the same.

thinking even in our POD comp, we're all going to end up with similar teams

2c/164 - c Haas and Lodge

May delivering 32 at CTR. Woot!

Haas(c) Lodge May 196/3(c)

Surely he'll be above 6% ownership next week, I'd assume? Maybe not, though... have to admit I didn't consider that could happen. I just thought this'll be the only week he'll be within the selection criteria so one had to jump on. As noted, though, we're all in the same boat.

I'm definitely interested to see how it plays out. I have a few similarities to Chewie - I think around the 9 mark, but played it a bit different to him, so our teams are quite different overall.

I think we might get a decent spread, but no doubt there will be some obvious similarities on players you couldn't pass up. A lot of fringe guys, though, that we had to make hard calls on.

For instance, am I going to be the only one without Harry Grant?

That was my thinking. Wanted to jump on in case ownership rose too much

I guess if you get on straight after lockout finishes you can get on next week before his ownership goes up too much

Strategy wise I locked in guns I expected to be well over 6% next week and thus not selectable

Haas(C), Lodge and Oates for me so far

I didn't pick Grant, went with McCullough
There were some obvious choices like Haas, Lodge etc but there are lots of pods within the pods looking at a few of the teams
I found it difficult to find too many players that are set to make good money
To'o out of reach next week at 6.01%

Haas(C), Kenny and Lodge

I skipped Grant for McCullough too, although if Grant does start will need to move quick to get him under 6%

Avoided Oates because wasn't sure on job security, but looks now like he'll be there for a while.

I’ll just get Grant post-origin when the POD requirement is like 18% or whatever. Can’t see him being that popular - hooker is still fairly stacked and he’s got quite a bit of price falling to do.
