Bump. Pull trigger on Brailey to Graham instead of Ramien? I need another CTR with doubt over Peachey Bird Suaalii

Tight call I’d go Ramien, but I can see why you’d go Camobell.

With Arrow out this means the QLD side will have two players who might be playing reserve grade in round 18 for the 15th place side LOL (Flegler and Coates)

I'm weighing up Josh Jackson now or someone priced in the 600s (likely Cook or Mahoney) next week. Was initially going for the next week option, but with Cook backing up from Origin and Mahoney returning from injury, there's some risk there. So I'm actually thinking the dour dependability of JJ is the right play. If I could afford to consider someone 700+ it might be a different story.

Chambers out probably saves me a trade, unless Suaalii is a late inclusion.

Somehow ended up with a shit squad in both bye rounds

Guilty.

Looking ahead, what do we think the main hooker options are going to average for the rest of the year?

Hunt, Cook, Koro, Mahoney, Grant

Murray?

Another ?  Was that with Stew ?

I think Stew was watching a different streaming site.

So Burton has rounds 18, 19 and 20 as the dominant half possibly?

Sorry, should've said who I have. Got Murray last round, also have SJ, Haas, Fog, Moses etc. in that price bracket

What I'm really lacking are the more expensive guns. But I'm prioritising Fifita, one of Ponga/Turbo, one of iPap/Crichton/Friz, and getting Cleary back down the road. And can't do anything else at that price level

Also some one pulled out the ‘why don’t you marry him’ last night which is my all time favourite juvenile retort….bravo

i’ve still got Croker too. he’s been rock solid ever since the majority of posters jumped off him in round 4 or 5. More good luck than good management on my part - there was always someone else who needed to go first.

my tv broke wrote:Apparently Chambers is out because they've now decided he has to isolate because he travelled to Victoria for birth of child (despite Vic not having any cases)

Could they have not known this before teamlists? fks sake. I mean it was probably 15 pts, whatever, still annoying. Would have gone Savage instead.

This stuff is going to keep happening unfortunately. I've been banging on all year about the need for a balanced 21 for the run home rather than a top heavy 18. Sucks big time for bye rounds though, sorry mate.

lolllllll traded Simmo to Chambers so can't reverse.

That's nice for Burton you would think.

One of them will probably go on a tear, but they're all scoring fairly similar this year, which I why I'm just keeping Koro and Brailey and spending it elsewhere, probably Ponga. I'd bring in Cook though if I was in the market for a hooker. Can banner.
