AFB back at training, potential cheapish keeper option around the corner

Welcome to my team Fleg. That's the opening Knights needed to bring in Lodge.

We need more Tooheys in the world. A sports journalist who actually has a clue.

How many more minutes do we expect him to get now,??

He’ll need plenty more but if he gets them I could be keen

Huge news for warriors. We need more round 17 options as well.


Btw i just spat out my drink after seeing your profile pic

Don't particularly trust the Storm with this 3-4 week time frame for papy.

They’ve been on the money this year so far.. paps shoulder, munsters foot etc

All this trade talk is good, but largely irrelevant obviously. Who's everyone captaining this week?

DFifita back in action, probably the no-brainer choice, but not a bad idea to switch things up regularly.

Not a fan of captaining backs, but Trbo, Teddy and Hynes need to be considered under these new rules.

Brailey, Harris and Papalii for some good consistent options.

Halves can be iffy too, but I'm thinking of taking a punt on Cleary vs. Dogs. Opposition is overrated though, so might play it safe come Thurs.

Bad media reporting prob doesn't help, NRL Tonight just reported the storm have said it was unlikely Munster/Papy would take part in any part of the origin series.

Simpkin to Burton pencilled in. Gives me 17 for the week

Like any of the 3 games?

nrlphysio: Ryan Papenhuyzen also unlikely to be available for Origin 1 selection, is yet to start progressing through NRL’s concussion protocol. Hope is to start light activity later this week. Considering reported symptoms post match & concussion history great to see caution from the Storm

That’s a big call there

They prob just got it wrong, there's been nothing else to support it.

Yeah is that an accident, or an extended time frame. So unclear.

They saw how stupid NSW were with Cordner last season

Could be good for Watson i.e. he may start in the halves

Do you like these trades:
Utoi out - Hynes in
Simpkin out - A. Kelly in

Gets rid of 2 red dots & I'll get Walsh round 14

Cheers.
