    Just before the fight started I tried to put it up on my Chromecast but it didn't work. By the time I got the stream back up on my laptop it was over, lol.

    Funnily enough, I really wanted to get to bed by 11pm tonight and as I was watching the night progress and thought I'd be sitting here at midnight still watching this thing. I guess not. Still gotta finish this beer, though...

    You need a wfb and a ctr this week. Nui to Hampton is the obvious one then you can trade in a 'gun' ctr like bird and use Hampton to cover Papy.

    I think this is your best option rather than trading papy who may be back next week

    Thanks mate yeah and this is what I’m doing!

    I hope I don’t break Bird......

    Yeah I am running Simpkin and Verrills and I assume most others will be. They’re both gonna earn too much cash while giving 40+ points a round to turn down

    I need to wait a week on Verrills as I need a WFB and a Cleary. Hoping he keeps things sensible.

    The undercard fights were quite good.  Like to see Gal with some better opponents.

    Who told you this?
    Good question I actually can’t recall now but I did hear it somewhere. I think it was on late mail crew discoed was said that Walters plans to use Turpin and Levi using one of them as like a Connor Watson 14 kinda player so might be Levi playing some lock. But was said that Turpin is likely to still get 80mins or if not close to it.

    Pretty interesting round for my fantasy team. Will prob drop a ton of ranks before the first sunday game. Then have 10 players on sunday to watch my rank skyrocket.

    That's the release hey, but not an eel yet

    Until the Eels announce it, it's probably not official, but it was reported in mainstream NZ media;

    Lrkn wrote:need a 2nd opinion here lads

    I'm mainly playing H2H this year so not too fussed about origin or byes and to a lesser extent overall rank (still stings when it goes down but). I've got 628k bank to go Smith > Cleary this week, selling Smith a week or two before he peaks and getting Cleary at overs or alternatively I can hold fire this week and over the next couple of weeks trade in guys like Tohu, Haas for Smith and Turpin to shore up my pretty weak MID which is where I'm bleeding a few points (Leniu has made my 17 in 4 rounds this year)

    the thing is my next 3 H2H weeks are vs Cleary owners but the rest of my team is stronger so I reckon I can grab 2 or 3 wins there no stress and get Cleary in the back half (ideally anyway if the bastard could stop knocking out 90s)

    team tracker is linked if needed xx
    Tbh, I think a strong Mid will make more of an impact. You will need Cleary though if you want to stay competitive. For mine, Cleary doesn't drop below $1.05m all year. So up to you whether that discount is worth the wait

    Hampton fills the Niu role. Play him when needed

    If he could average 50 until Rd 13 you'd be laughing, but seems a bit of a stretch.

    39 average last year in 80 min games. 40 in 2019. Hasn't really kicked the shit out of the ball much previously like he did last game vs. Panthers.

    Would need to keep getting the attacking stats just to hit 50 otherwise looks to be scoring 30s.

    There are some positions that have no certainty week to week, Broncos halves are definitely one of them.

    Don't rate his job security or scoring to be honest. Don't mind gambling on one or the other, but gambling on both does sound like lunacy.

    Broncos have had a single dominant kicker in almost every game which is why I was keen. Was averaging almost 50 with Milf and with little to no KM, last week was 50 base from kicking and tackling, but I guess with Walters words, Milf could be back anyway soon

    The attacking stats is kinda my main concern, besides the job security thing that I didn't mention Laughing

    Has a few TA, LB and LBAs from the 4 games this season and was pretty dry in those categories last year. Not sure if Broncos are any better than that well-earned spoon team.
