    Mostly joking because of how it turned out with Cleary, but couldn't really have expected him to average 100 based on that first game. I would've held Crichton, but Cleary was the only one I'd be tempted by if I didn't have him. Others were looking at Teddy or some other 50+ avg forward and probably regret burning that trade now.

    The guy currently in 2nd might not have had Crichton, but he waited until Rd 4 to make the move on Cleary and looks to have paid off, conserving trades and righting the mistake of not starting with Cleary before it killed him.

    I think we need to rumble, like online keyboard type rumble.

    I can only dream of having a trade at hand now, all I can do is swap players around as though something is taking place!

    For what it's worth, Curran has very good JS too. Brown has shown that he has big wraps on the guy, and there's no-one really to take his place unless Murchie has a miraculous comeback.
    Curran is ahead of Murchie

    What ever happens over the last 4 rounds, at least you have a good takeaway in terms of the bye period.
    You cleary had a bit of a rough start, but played a beautiful game over the bye period - climbing 9k ranks in that period is nothing to be sneezed at.

    Like Mulvy said, I think your attitude has been exemplary - especially in a challenging year.

    Sorry, I haven't been following that closely, but why did Curran miss:

    Rounds 11-13 - vaguely recall him being injured?
    Rounds 16-17
    Round 20?

    I was the one keen on him so I checked and 16-17 was when he was in isolation having been on a plane with a covid positive hostie

    Can't remember what happened in 20 which was why I was dicey on JS

    Cool, thanks mate.

    Thinking about rolling the dice on him as my 2nd last trade.
    Just need him to at least play this week and next week... (then hopefully Lolo is back for cover, with Gus back the following week).

    Yeah, playing 5 of the last 11 games makes him look pretty dicey, but had it not been for the unlucky covid iso thing, you'd guess he would've otherwise played 7 of the last 8 - far more palatable

    "Trent Robinson has confirmed he has spoken with off-contract utility Connor Watson about a Roosters return" - NRL.com

    It would give them great cover when Radley is next suspended with his (estimated) 300% loading...

    Yeah I brought him in during the Origin period and he missed the game I needed him for. Brown likes the guy though, he was rewarded for a strong start to the season I think. Definitely overtaken several players in the pecking order. We're missing Tohu, but Curran has been doing a good job in the pack regardless

    Definitely. Was one of their best on the weekend from what I saw ... apart from being drunk going back to the sheds lol! think he’s just a good footy player that can set others up as well eg his offload for the Walsh try and his short ball to put Walsh through a gap on top of his solid work rate

    I’m bringing him in again this week as my first choice over Jackson/murray and then deciding on one of them as well

    Bringing in a hooker to fill the Mahoney void.

    Would we say Grant is the best option whose name is not Cook (can't afford him)?
