Given how popular Papy, Latrell, Niu, Simonsson are I suspedct there are a lot of people in need of a WFB this week.

Who are you getting if you don't get Trbo?
Ponga great if you can afford him, but otherwise you getting someone like Brimson and hoping he gets back to form. Or go cheap like Hampton
Or just kill Beth's superPOD Doueihi

A proven history of hamstring injuries. I may still have to go there but would prefer not too

Sorry beth

Teddy is pretty cheap if you are looking at Ponga?

Think I'm probably going to so I can get rid of the suckiest suck to ever have sucked in Gosiewski

if he played first (or I could otherwise be assured of the Rooster's starting team) I would be more tempted.

Might give him a week. His price won't go up too much

I can afford Ponga with enough change to get anyone except Haas in for Turpin next week

Tempted to bypass Turbo this week and trade in dual CTR/WFB. Looking at Farnsworth and Crichton as potential options. This allowing me to then drop roberts to the NPR as centre cover when Papy is fully fit.

I'm thinking along the same lines. With a WFB of Laurie, Papenhuyzen and Teddy I don't really need a 4th per se when Paps is fit because a WFB on the INT isn't really the greatest.

Someone with DPP is certainly helpful. I like Herbie, he does play for the Broncos but he's a genuinely great talent and if Broncos keep performing like they did against the Panthers he'll get some good scores here and there.

Apparently Matterson has been named in NSW cup

Getting JFH means I'm playing - JFH, Roberts and one of SOS, Walker, Croker, Alvaro (and no centre cover)

Getting Peachey means I'm playing - Peachey and two of those four guys above.

Which one gets more points?

So many questions.

If Curran keeps playing like he did last week, any chance he keeps an edge spot?

Get him back in the groove away from the spotlight perhaps?

If he keeps playing like he did, sure. But can he keep playing like he did?

Any option without Roberts.

That Will Penisini guy is on the bench for Parra. Any chance he starts anytime soon?

An early tip is To’o is guaranteed an origin spot as I’ll be bringing him in this week, over Ponga, to replace Fatrell. Also, I can’t believe I need another centre thanks to Momirovski -what was he thinking in making that tackle? If by some Rooster’s act he gets the downgrade then Verrills is straight in!

Cheers, I already knew the answer to that! haha

He still had 5 missed tackles last week, but has a huge work rate for an edge, made 50 tackles and ran for 140m.

Has the potential to be the guy that most miss out on and guns it.

It hurts my ears listening to Paul Crawley talk footy.
