Is Brimson playing Origin?

I'd have him but it's hard to see where he fits:

1. Ponga
2. Coates
3. Gagai
4. Capewell/Opacic (if you want a specialist CTR)
5. Holmes
6. Munster
7. DCE

14. BHunt

I've seen calls for Brimson over Ponga but surely not. Hard to go past Hunt's greater utility value with HOK/HLF & moving Munster/Holmes to FB if needed. Maybe a left-field centre pick a la Turbo?

That seems pretty bang on I'd say. I think Brimson misses out if all those players are fit. Don't see them picking Brimson over Ponga if they could choose one.

Yeah will be interesting, would be nice to have in the bye round but will see how it pans out

Surely Angus gets off that charge tomorrow night... Ridiculous charge, I've seen alot worse than that lol

Thoughts on Palasia? I need a cashout EDG or MID to cover Angus this week, and assume that he would make the team Rd13 even with Riki and Glen back? Especially with TPJ a chance at making origin.

Where can I see it?

Lodge and Gamble have taken early pleas

I saw it on the Matty Johns show mate when Angus was the special guest last night. It was a late hit but there was nothing in it, Albert Kelly got straight up and no penalty or anything in game.

It happened in the 7th minute of the game so if you have an NRL.com account (free) you can watch the full match replay and just skip to the 7th minute.

I think the fact you're a roosters fan and not even remembering the incident is saying something.... soft ass charge

Walker to beanz then?

Thoughts on Cheese as a 3 to 4 week play? Will then be sold for a round 17 gun? Probably too short term at his price?

Any reason not to go ahead with my trades?

Walker to Hynes
Alvaro to CHN

Leaves me with 15 trades and 16k bank

Brailey
Haas, Watson, TPJ
Schuster, CHN
Cleary, Moses
Bird, Harper
Turbo, Teddy, Hynes

Welch, Starling, Doueihi, Angus

Laurie, Momo, Simpkin, Verrills

Unfortunately I cannot see Hunt making the team. I think obviously with Grant injury this will be the line-up but moving forward I love the idea of Mahoney at 9 and Grant on the Bench. Mahoney to get the game started in the first 30 minutes and the have Grant come in for the last 50 minutes. Then have both on towards the end of the game for that 1-2 punch ALA Smith and Grant Storm style.

Awww get lost hahaha. He dummied right and then turned back on the inside, hiding the ball from Crichton. Contact was soft and I don't think Crichton could have seen the ball.

You'd think he gets off, you see worse every time a half kicks a ball

Ive considered it. My criteria for rd 13 players now is Must make money, and not be at risk of being dropped in the next 3 weeks. So not taking much risk, even if it means only fielding 10-11 players. Want to save as many trades as i can. Cheese is right on the threshold for me. Ill probably bring Fog in before him.

Yeah 100%. But who knows with the judiciary panel... hope they don't just think he's contesting the charge because of origin and not actually getting any more additional weeks even if he's found guilty

Kerr taken early plea 1 game suspension.

The way the panther halves are firing, the rest of the spine have it pretty easy

North Queensland Toyota Cowboys centre Connelly Lemuelu will have surgery Tuesday on a thumb fracture suffered in the first half of Thursday’s victory over the Newcastle Knights.
