Outs - Laurie, Hynes, Brailey, Talau
Ins - Cleary, Cook, Simo, Lussick

Team for the week

Cook
Thompson, JFH, Twal
Tohu, Ipap
(c)Cleary, Burton
Peachey, Bird
Teddy, Walsh, Gutho

Macca, CHN, Cheese, Watson
Schuster, Simo, S.Walker, Lussick

Also plan to use 1-2 more trades for r17. Will be a fun run home managing the team I've stuck myself with.

Hynes and Brailey out over Watson?

What's the long term plan to replace Burton at half? Play Schuster? Burton in the centres is definitely not a final 17 half

I like Schuster as my 2and half. Burton I'm gonna keep so I can have 3 gun ctr's. Play him in a bench spot.

Planned trade before r17 is Twal > Lolo. The way Lolos price is dropping might be a straight trade.

Gutho > Tommy. Prob after Origin
And Watson + CHN > Fifita + Cheapie.

Then should in theory have


With 3 trades left from around r20 to manage the biggest injuries. Will leave plenty of cover to cover 1-2 week outs and just cop some bad scores from some of those shit players.

Another option is to just keep talau and skip Lussick to bank that extra trade. Hes more likely to play out the season

Hynes was always leaving my team to get Cleary back in. Also Pappy could be back any week and kill his scores.

Also I just prefer watson for covering 2 positions.

Hey guys, I have been sick all week and not really checked up fantasy.

What odds Teddy actually playing this week? How safe am I trading Laurie out?

I don't believe there's been any more info. Walker is getting rested so seems safe for Ted at the moment. unless I've missed something.

Haven’t seen any news on Teddy being rested this week

I’ve gone Laurie to Tauk so I at least have the chance to reverse it if Teddy is scratched.

I think Teddy has another week off, just typical

Was this actually confirmed or was it just random speculation?

I think Robbo puts his best possible team on the park this week, he'll want to see where they are at vs the top sides.

Update to previous team list. Prob gonna skip the Brailey > Cook and Talau > Lussick. 2 trades this week. 9 remaining. Rest of the strategy will remain the same.

TU - Play Moses
TD - Play Fog

Thanks

My apologies if it wasn't confirmed. I wasn't following that closely but thought it was locked in, might have just been speculation then.

Roosters forum seem to think he won't play.

Ah, I see Hooper sprouted this too. Yeah, maybe I jumped the gun there lol! Where there's smoke there's fire I guess. Seems positive for Ted, but against the Panthers, don't see Ted not playing.

Roosters website has nothing on either Walker or Teddy but Robbo says this:

“We’re in a good position but now it’s time to go out and lay it on the line on Friday night and play how we want to play and put it all together.

“It’s good to see Sam back. He just got cleared this morning so that’s a real positive for us. We get the artist behind the play-the-ball and get him playing again.

“He’s a traditional dummy-half. It’s been a while but it’s time for him to get back out there."

The artist?!

Seems like he'll come off the bench but yeah, might be starting as early as next round.

Its crazy to me that people think he wont be the starting 9 once match fitness is up.

Yeah big time will have the opportunity to play the other if Brailey goes badly

To me that makes it sound like he might even start this week come game day.

Tyson fury could go win a gold medal if he wanted.. that isn’t right.

What determines if someone is pro or amateur ? He has only had 4 or 5 fights since amateur as they say.

Huni has hardly had any big fights of his own to be a rock solid Pro as they say. They spout he fought for the Australian title (against Tsoye) before the Gallen fight which was laughable as it was basically two guys put together with no history of fighting there way through the ranks to a title fight. It's just like 'ok let's put fighter A and B together and call it the Aus title fight as there is no one else around of note at the moment'.
