I won’t downvote anyone asking for thoughts as it’s childish!

I don't think people are downvoting your questions/asking for advice - they're downvoting the frequency of it from you.

EDIT: Either that or upvote/downvote in regards to a question you've asked in a post.
For example, if I wrote "Hey everyone, should I trade Hynes out to Starling" I would expect people downvotes meaning "that is a terrible idea"

FWIW, assuming MTBs stats are up to date:

Pre trades, the top 1000 ranks have an average of 9 players for round 13. (Tad under or over 9, depending what you assume with the likes of Uto, Simpkin, Papy, Uto, Lucy).

That was my thought. Trading Simo to Kelly.

I’d hope for a base pricer to cash out too before getting Kelly, pre TLT questions are tough to answer

While on ownership of top 1,000, a few that surprised me:

Walsh: 91%
Laurie: 87%
Avo: 59%
CHN: 53%
TPJ: 40%
Sualli: 13%
Nofo: 0.1%
Hopo: 0.1%

I think the downvotes for Rabbits generally come from the 400 questions to people with the same knowledge available. There comes a time where every thought or question doesn't need to be heard and some thought for oneself needs to be done.

I'll pick him up if that's the case, even at reduced minutes, he may not get a big score this round, but he'll be a keeper for the season.

Yep - named 1-20 https://www.nrl.com/news/2021/05/31/queensland-maroons-origin-i-team/

Grant 9. Brimson 14. Mahoney 19

Green on 360 said no decisions have been made until later in the week. Giving players til Thursday.

Are Wookies fortune tellers now?

There's absolutely no indication he'll be able to keep up with the speed of the game or eventually transition to a big minute role unless McGuire moves into the prop rotation.

Does he bump Moose out of the lock role though?

It's time to appease the fantasy gods and offer up some cows and goats...

hopefully they looks down on me with favour and grant Lucy and Mahoney to play this week

I'm sure they'll find a spot for him somewhere in the forward rotation, and JDB will have something to prove.

My potential 17 for round 13

Brailey
Ipap, Watson, Lodge
Barnett, Lucy
Moses, Fogarty
Bird, Burton
Hynes(c), Laurie, SCrichton

Mahoney, JDB, Brooks, Roberts

Haven't watched the raiders so I have no idea.....not an unusual scenario

Reckon it took him a few weeks to get back up to speed after the layoff. Looks like he's added a few kegs from last year, bending the line with most runs now.

Nah, I think most of them just because the original post is about downvotes. It’s awfully hard to resist downvoting a post complaining about downvotes. If I say the word a couple more times you will see what I mean and downvote this post without feeling it is was even worthy of a downvote

If they can price JDB to be a straight swap with Starling I'm going with it.

Nah you've addressed the issue and therefore will be flooded with up votes

It will be interesting to see what price tag they'll put on him... I would guess somewhere between $450k-$550k

Get in my belly!, if he comes in at those odds

Thanks for answering me though mate I’ve been at work 10 hours so not much time for fantasy.

Happy to help you out too tomorrow night and vice versa.

If I trade this week I won’t use anymore than 1 trade.
