I shouldn't agree with you, you big fantasy legend prick. Well, there it is

TPJ out of the middle is by far and away a better move for him footy wise and far less defensive work than a middle forward (where a high shot/elbow/crusher tackle/chicken wing) may occur, thus a less likelyhood of getting in a brain snap with other Props who know how to poke a bear.

Looking at calculator mate and Koro only needs a 65+ Score to barely drop a dime, if only one I’d be inclined for Koro but both should be considered as I need to play catch up. Cheers

That's not right. Api has a BE in the 90s.

Yeah all the defenders fault, if everyone runs around at 100 miles an hour and make a late duck and cop a head high at waist level = 6 to 8 weeks gone!!

Not sure most people realise either that even with a slip, a player height drops what? 200mm 7-8inches that's the difference between chin and forehead so 90% of the time the player was swinging for the fucking forehead or over the top anyway!

and with a score in 65+ drops what, 15-20k?

Calc seems slightly broken. 65 avg says he loses 17k, 19k and 11k the next three, but the prices don't match the losses.

Should lose about 47k, not 12k as per the calc.

Cheers mate. Definite wait then, will build trades with Koro coming in after some bigger price drops

If you miss your BE by 25 you lose about 30k. I'm after Api too but will be getting him next week all being well.

With the incumbents, JAC is a certainty for Origin and there's no reason Tupou shouldn't be a certainty too. Has all the ball-running and finishing attributes of To'o plus big game experience and aerial threat (and not an opposition target for bombs). Only way To'o gets in front of him is through injury or if Freddie is swayed by inevitable press hype.

That said, I don't think To'o is overrated at all, he's really fucking good.

Can I just say when will NSW realise just pick one fullback in your team, 2 centres (who are centres / not fullbacks playing centre or 5.8ths playing centre), and believe it or not how about picking two wingers who are genuine wingers. Hands down you do this and you win Origin almost every time. Also is Tedesco a bit overrated. It's easy to be called the best player in the game when you play for elite teams ALL the time like the Rooster / NSW / Australia. Little bit harder to be amazing all the time when you loose your play makers + hooker. I actually rate Turbo and Ponga above him. Can you image if Ponga or Turbo was playing in a Melbourne or Roosters team over the last 4 years.

Anyway my NSW backline.

Cleary / Luai
Lomax / Staggs (if fit)
To'o / Addo Carr or Topou
Turbo

Cheers mate, I'll hold on Koro the same then

Who would you guys keep in your team out of Papenhuyzen, Turpin, Taukeiaho?

I'd keep Pappy because the other 2 will probably lose value. But you could assume/take an educated guess that SST won't play so could keep him & sell Pappy if you're after a gun.

No worries mate, hopefully I'm reading it right anyway..

I'm sure it used to be a per week loss, but now it's showing overall loss. Dunno, might wanna double check with MTB.

No bite from me and end of the day it's all opinion but I'd say the majority of pundits and fans have always backed Teddy in.

Maybe the calc is fine on second thoughts. I put in a 60 average and the losses seem way too high the way I was reading it.

35k loss after 3 weeks of 60 sounds realistic. So only 12k after 3 weeks of 65 is probably right.

Waiting a week probably the right call though.

Brailey
Haas Harris Watson
Fifita Schuster
Cleary Munster
Averillo Roberts
Tedesco Laurie Trbojevic

A. Crichton Simpkin Walker Papenhuyzen
L. Croker Verrills Hampton Utoikamanu

43k ITB, 23 trades remaining.

Big question for me this week is whether I want to trade down from Uto to CHN. On the plus side, it'd net me some money for a future upgrade and I'm not sure Uto will go up much more while CHN will make money this week, and make a mint if he gets 80 minutes each week like he did this week. Downsides are I'd burn a trade which I've used a lot of already, have only 1 MID cover amongst my bench and EMG and can't be sure of CHN's job short to mid term job security with the Ricky Stuart Forward Rotation Lottery. Thoughts?

One of the hookers who can certainly smash out an 80 with a single scoot and standard tackle rate but waiting still the best way to go I think.

The fullback playing centre thing is a bit different with Latrell, who's a better centre than he is fullback.

Anyway, it'll be

Cleary, Luai or Wighton
JAC, Mitchell, Turbo, Tupou or To'o
Teddy

Yep, I have my tennis raquet to return some double handed backhands back down the line.

Is Blore due back anytime soon?
