Haas going through Ramadan too.

Yowser. He takes water at least, right?

I've gone To'o, big fan of his and I put money on him regularly so time to get him into my fantasy side. Means I'll run Teddy, Papy and To'o in my final team. Health permitted.

That is me every Saturday at 12pm playing AFL in Townsville...

I've also gone To'o over Turbo but haven't locked it in. Healthy backline would be Papy RTS To'o Laurie

Turbos shit

As stated, based on those most impacted by recurring injuries. Liddle's don't seem to be recurring, more a series of one off injuries. Moylan does have recurring injuries, but the strike rate for those most likely is huge.

Whilst they are one off some people are just injury prone and Liddle looks to be one of them. I thinks he's still less likely to miss game time because of injury than Turbo though, hamstrings seem to be one of those injuries that just keep happening

I have just enough to go Liddle and Riki to Ponga and Simpkin,would definitely require a double trade round next week though to be able to bring in Moses and Verrills for Leniu and Turpin probably. Alternatively I could go with Turbo and have a slight chance to go Leniu to Moses with a single trade. What should I do?

Cracked me up given all the insightful posts re Turbo and injury history and projections.

So could Dearden be released early to the Cows? How likely is this to happen?

Nope, no water

Looks like my run up the rankings is going to come to a halt this week.
Pap, Trell and Momo with no CTR or WFB cover sees me playing 16. Haven't seen anyone else having to play 16...am I alone on this island?

First trade for me is something im forced into. Cant really see another option.
Riki > Hampton (will become my CTR cover when Momo returns)

Second trade is abit tougher. Obviously need a WFB.
Latrell > To'o

Leaves 159k in the bank to upgrade Townsend to anyone (likely Moses) and grab Verrills after a look this weekend.

My question to you...
Is To'o the best option with bank, byes and origin in mind? Or Should I bite the bullet, go all in for Teddy for only 50k more (crazy hes only 50k more)

@Teeth Eater , thanks for your (long) reply on the Cleary ownership question. Bottom line is you have to enjoy the game, and if not having Cleary is ruining your enjoyment then get him in (Snatchpato's logic I think).

All I was saying (and MS before me ) is you're not going to catch up by bringing him in now but you're just hoping not to fall further behind. The fact that 999 out of the current top 1,000 have him makes perfect sense given he has been on an all time tear. By not bringing him in, you'd be hoping the $1.1m you spend on Cleary could be spent elsewhere on better value guys who can deliver more points collectively. And if Cleary does cool down, you get to catch up some of that lost ground.

ps I lost a H2H on the weekend with Cleary captain, to a team without him . Probably says more about the rest of my team than anything else...

Anyone hopping off Turpin with Levi now on the bench?

Such a compelling and persuasive argument lol.

Have to see how it plays out first.

Turbo will pump out a 100 this week and everyone against him will come around and trade him in next week and that’s when his hammy will go. Atleast I’ll get his 100 this week I spose.

They do preseason in temps worse than that.

I can 1000% guarantee that it wont be the conditions that beat the Broncs....

All you fuckers successfully made me change my trades completely with ponga and verrills coming in, I’ve got 5 hookers but that’s a problem for another day

Pick one to play out of SOS, Walker, Stefano.
