I dunno, the Dogs still wouldn't be able to score even with just 3 Roosters on the field.  At least Crichton can run a line for a meaty.

I reckon Friend may have run a few lines in his time

Team with 1 trade and 105k spare is

Brailey
Haas Murray Ipap
Schuster Fifita
DCE Moses
Ramien Manu
Teddy Turbo Ponga

Walsh Olakau’atu Verrills Peachey
Doueihi Angus Macca Suaali


Early thoughts are Doueihi to Jackson, Barnett, AFB, Hudson, Garrick........

I think I might go podish and get Garrick. Could go big the next 2 weeks.

Thoughts? Jax has Garrick too so of he kills it the next 2 weeks I negate that by getting him.

Jax has 14 this week so I should be fine.

Rabbits

Firstly - I edited your post to make the text normal size.

If you can't work out how to post normal text, then please remember that it is not essential to share every fantasy related though on every forum you are a member of.

As to your question - by the sounds of it, you have Jax beat. He has no trades and no players.
Make your decisions based on what you think will score you the most points so you can improve your rank by as much as possible. If you think that Garrick happens to be the best move anyway, then go for it - but don't trade him in just because he is also in a team that is worse than yours.

Who has time to be a member of more than one fantasy forum?  I want that life...

Who would you trade out this week between Verrills and Croker?  The other would be 18th/19th man for the last two weeks.

Leaning towards trading in Jackson, as an upgrade to my current top 17.  I also want an edge as backup, so am interested in Murray and Curran too, but feel like Jackson is more nailed on to play the last two rounds (injury and suspension risk notwithstanding).

I don't even have time to be a member of this fantasy forum. 

I just sacrifice other areas of my life like good health, loving relationships, and the success of my students.

Latest dogs injury report says Avo will be a game day decision.

Hopefully it's a 24 hour out call.

I obviously spend a bit of time here, but I can have a tab open a work and it's always on my phone. No way I could post on other forums though. I'd rather commit the time I do post here on the one forum and make it worthwhile with good people. Spreading time over multiple forums seems like a total waste and it wouldn't culminate into the meaningful friendships and discussions like I get here putting all the time into this place.

Verrills and Croker is a tough one. You'd think Verrills would be the one to go not playing 80, but his scoring has somewhat improved to some sort of consistency. Not sure how many minutes Marshke takes off him though. Probably not a great deal.

Looking at Crokers scores though, I didn't realise he wasn't playing 80. His scores are pretty on par with Verrills now. Tough call, but I'd probably keep Croker, just.

I like Murray for those big scores but you're right, he may get a rest or reduced minutes. Jackson pretty rock solid and definitely will play. Curran could be a late out in regards to concussion protocol.

Who would you guys play out of Blore and Brailey? Both look like they may not be 80 minute players anymore. Or should I chuck Walker in there?

*edit* Walker is playing Souths, he might die.

He'll spend the afternoon standing behind his goal posts anyway 

Re: Verrills' minutes:

Don't forget we'll have 2-3 players go down with season ending injuries so Verrills will have to play 80. Often overlooked.

I was going to add he'd play 80 by default anyway but didn't want to go there haha.

The stats guys also love him as he gets TA's regardless of how much work the try scorer has to do, so there's that too.

As long as it isn't Verrills' turn for the season-ender this week.

Would be nice for the Rooosters if they could go into the the finals without losing any more players at all, really.

Just heard that now the goat Dale Copley has a broken bone in his foot so is unlikely to play again this year

I'm banking on Pongdong coming good this week. Be more like Teddy rather than the Darius Boyd we've been seeing.

Head says Titans, but I've gone with Knights by 4 instead of my default 10. No DSaifiti, no Klem, Titans attack has looked better, basically a home game for Tits, good record vs. Knights..

But Knights just look better on paper

Wait.....so this Jax clown that rabbits has been harping on about all season with this life and death wager going on that has consumed his life 24/7 for the past 6 months is just some random dunce off another forum ?

Yes, but this other forum posts in size 16 font, so its clearly much more important than our one.

But also who did you think Jax was, if not just some random dude? Did you think he was some super important fantasy guy and you were just out of the loop?
