Stepping away from my usual "MS Is shit and I always beat him" trope - you are well placed to make a good rise up the rankings from here. Hope you smash it.

This is probably the year where "MS is shit" is the most true

This will be my last season if I can’t finish higher than Rabs. It’s been a pleasure lads.

I am wondering whether to do Angus to Ipap.

You should have make this decision on Thursday night, not an hour before the game.

555 from 12. Stayed around where I was…..sad day when the broncos in your team are the highlights. Made a conscious decision to sit tight on trades so can’t really complain. Not having a good run on the 50/50 trades this year…..Robert’s over Bird, Moses over Matto, Haas over Turbo.

Have to make some solid moves over the next few weeks.

Congrats to all the big movers

551/11 sees rank stay approximately the same.

Now to target Round 17 and after with Harris, Lolo, ARey and SJ, as well as bringing Difi back in after his post-origin rest when Kelly has made some coin. Kamikamica, Moses, Laurie, Watson make way along with large bank. Brailey to Cook might be a luxury trade too, and Hynes/Pap whenever that needs to happen. Try to bring in Turbo or Latrell and DCE after Origin when I'll have maybe six trades left.

Cook
Haas Lolo Harris
Angus Fifita
Cleary ARey
Peachey Averillo
Tedesco Hynes/Papy Walsh
Koroisau TPJ CHN SJ
Schuster SCrichton Suallii Verrills/Cashout

13/615 here. Captain Moses hurt. I’m going to try and stick with the plan this week of

Brailey and Isaako to CHN and Harris

Will see if I have enough cash in bank to pull it off and if I have enough WFB taking the field. Might have to wait a week on Harris.

I gained about 2000 ranks so can’t complain too much.

WTF. Don't do that.

Lol, why mate? Play on.

I don’t mean to whinge but I’m a little bit mad. Moses had 2 clear tackle busts and the 1 they initially paid they took off him!

But geez Moses pissed me off today I was yelling watching him! I was livid. Last 3 weeks avg of 35.

I know if I sell him he scores 75 next week and if I hold he scores 35-40.

Pretty happy I only lost about 600 places with 8 players. Thought the damage would be worse than that only having 8 players and Hynes as captain.

Couldn't watch the game tonight so just catching up but pretty happy with the round despite some underwhelming scores from the likes of Fog and Moses

682 from 14 , up to rank 4.7k from 8k last week

Hopefully can piece together 17 players next week

You should definitely sell him. MTB would

Speaking of MTB it was nice whilst I was ahead of him I knew it wouldn’t last he was always gonna come steaming full pelt out of nowhere. I think he makes the top 500 easily without breaking into a sweat.

Will be pushing top 250 again in no time.

Dyl Brown looks like an absolute gun this year... thinking of bringing him in for Moses. Has played 9 games this year with 2 scores under 50 and only one try and one TA. Hmmmm

Yeah no tackle breaks for Moses is just an absolute joke.

my tv broke wrote:697 for the week. Basically halved rank to 2117.

17 trades in hand. Lets gooo

Uh oh... Here he comes


I’m going to field 7-8 men R17 so might breeze right by me if you get that right

lol yeah wtf. During the game he had 2 but in updates they were taken off him. He def broke a few today thats for sure (also missed a few too hahahah)

Do you own Moses as well mate?

I reckon the reason Moses kick metres are down is the calf. That’s why he didn’t kick as much today. After Round 15 that 2 week break will be great for Moses and the bye come round 17 so I’m holding him.

Now I know Shaun Johnson is a bit injury prone but now with Townsend on the outer SJ will get massive kick metres playing with Moylan and he kicks goals and the Sharks draw looks quite reasonable.

I could take a gamble and sell S. Crichton to Shaun Johnson, do you think it’s worth it? Johnson plays round 17 as well. He’s just a tick over 600k so priced nicely. It would push Peachey back to centre with Bird. I’d play Johnson on my bench.

Thoughts?

Yeah I've been a Moses owner since round 1 and am starting to become a bit concerned with his last few weeks. Normally he has a decent floor on him (which he could've hit in that game) as he missed like 5 conversions and also had some clear tackle busts not rewarded.

Personally I don't reckon that he wasn't kicking much because of it, he seemed like having his usual kicks however Dyl Brown being back also took some pressure off him with a few kicks. Moses still had his 60m getting out of yardage kicks a few times.

SJ is definitely an interesting option, we all know what he is capable of especially when he gets back to his running game. I'm not too sure what the go is surrounding Townsend though? As in how long he will be out of the side for... don't really follow up with cronulla news.
