How good was that. Love my lodge

yeah I picked him up in round 8 for $419 as a "slow burn", he ended up playing both bye rounds with his mid season switch.
And now he is starting to put up some big scores

Just be aware with Murray he looked very gassed tonight so might get an early mark in some upcoming games. Still probs a good option though.

For the round I basically played with 15 as I had no Teddy and Turbo had so only had 2 WFB’s and Tohu pretty much scored nothing and I had to include Peachey and Verrills in my score so to score 908 I was pretty happy with that. Rank has gone up slightly from 2793 to 2613.

Brailey and Macca 45 and 48 were meh. SJ was the big disappointment with 22. Angus, Haas, CHN, Ramien, Manu, Hynes, Walsh, Schuster and Haumole all went big for me.

My mate I have the bet with that I need it come within 1000 ranks of him is currently ranked around 400. So I need to make up 1200 spots roughly. He is down to 2 trades though, will be 1 after having to sell Tohu next week.

I also have to sell Tohu next week, could go to Mahoney but it means my mids look a bit weak would only have Angus, Haas, Haumole and Peachey in my 14-21 somewhere. I could however look at someone like Murray for a mid but the fact he looked so tired makes me wonder how Wayne will manage his mins in the run home.

Other potential option is Taumalolo but the question I ask is can he keep getting 60mins, or if the Cows can’t make the 8 in a few weeks do they start managing his minutes. Another option I guess is AFB or Barnett.

You and your mate have a bet going? First I've heard of it.

Just caught the last 20 mins of the Tigers game. Little bit disappointed that we didn't crack the 50+ I predicted, but credit to the Broncos for being slightly better than I anticipated. Probably still not good enough to avoid the spoon again, but the extra games this year should see them have a better record.

No pass Doui must be among the try assist leaders after that masterclass too.

880 and down 187 places to 1015....

Carnage this week, escaped captain Fifita but had SJ, Tohu, and BHunt

I started with him and if it weren’t for other fires early in the season he may well have left the team haha

I'm going to try and get mahoney and Turbo in this week.


Might prefer to run Schuster in the HLF's than SJ. Might offload SJ/Arey
Rank 138 5 trades left.

851 lost 30odd spots to 95th. Given the carnage, I’m happy with that. Had a great team heading in, just copped bad luck. Nothing can be done about that. Trade outs seem pretty obvious this week. It’ll be deciding who to that will prove difficult. If I I have funds to get fog and Harris to Cleary I think I’ll wait a week, knowing their prices won’t change. I can a carry both for a while, happy to wait on news on Cleary.

CHN showing as 106 on MTB’s site and still 97 on fantasy (and then quoted as 101 in Lone Scout article)

Terrible dreams last night.

I dreamt I traded out Lodge (who scored 90) and played Harris (who scored 3).
It seemed so real, yet it's obviously such an impossibly unrealistic scenario that I knew it had to just be a bad dream.

Anyway, time to go check my squad - happy days!

CHN banner hey. Not bad.

I welcome these extra 9 points being added before it opens.

A few players were edging close to a banner this week, good to see CHN made it

I was sitting on 990 at the end of the games, dropped back to 983 after downdates.

Impressive to banner up without a try. Has that been done before?

Taupau did it against the Knights I think it was a couple years back.

Ok - so it's pretty common. Carry on.
