Might pick up Starling after reading that

Would still go Crichton.

Why? I thought it confirmed to leave him a week.

Only sub would be to upgrade Hampcoin I reckon mAte. He’s no good, and has a fair bit on cash in in. CHN maybe

Thanks mate. I thought personally CHN was pretty trash. Not convinced he's secured the starting role long term either.

Doesn't encourage me

I'm firming on Niu & RJames > Grant and Gamble.

get a splash of product differentiation up in this biatch

Like Gamble up there mate?

Just reading between the lines that's all. I think there's a reason he's step down as captain and suddenly reports of him signing else where which I've never read about him before which could be complete balderdash however if there's smoke there's usually a fire.  

I could be very wrong ofcourse but I think Starling is their long term plan

It’s possible but super risky. Starling will make cash this week with a BE of 10 but may be benched next week. The Raiders actually say Hodgo will be back in round 10. That said, you seem to be aware of the risk and it could pay off.

don't mind Manu. Teddy likely to get a a rest during origin and Manu could go to full back.

As a pick up? Think he should go ok to be honest if he can hold his spot.

The risk with any long term Q Cup player is that its easy to get up for a big first up game. Can he keep it up now.

Not like Croft is going to demand selection any time soon and Dearden will be at the Cows in the next week I think.

Would anyone who traded out Averillo consider trading him back in?

Been putting up some good scores but I just have this paranoia the moment I trade him back in he'll go back to sub 30 scores.

The whole thing seems suss to me. I think they've dropped him and they're trying to hide he's dropped to save face. Anywho like you said im aware of the risk but i have nothing to lose this stupid year

In what way does it 'save face' ? From what ? If he was dropped he'd be playing reserve grade to regain form.

If they were actively trying to ship him out then people would have heard about it because his manager would be talking to other clubs. Not just a "oh maybe the broncos will sign him~" from the blokes who are paid to generate clicks.

When I say save face its if there is plans to shop him around. Hence why ive added i could be wrong.

I think there was no substance or merit behind this at all.

A mate of mine his mate was at captains run this morning and said this:

Koloamatangi trained at lock Arrow prop Host second row and Tatola to come off the bench.

Also Mago out J. Cartwright in and the source is chaps from Rabbitohs radio:

So we should run out like this:

Cody (C)
Gagai
Marsters
Burns
AJ
Benji
Hawkins
Tom
Cook
Arrow
Host
Su’a
Koloamatangi

Tatola
Nicholls
Knight
J. Cartwright
Mago

Koala at lock hey........

Ramien's stats from his 4 games are really fkn impressive though. Averaging 153m a game and breaking 7 tackles a game. That's why I've gone him just hoping he can keep that form up
