Fiona should also be organising this for the general public playing NRL Fantasy.

Disappointing, yes. Surprising, not so much.

It was literally the most obvious of try saves, they even went to the Bunker for it.

100% it was. Curran also had a clear TO

Two weeks in a row I just missed out on the NRL PICK'EM.

This week in the last game I picked the Panthers by 19+. Arrgghh

I'm interested to see who others would pick?

Cook
Haas iPap
Fifita Murray Jackson
Cleary DCE
Bird Burton
Turbo Teddy Ponga

Fogarty Walsh Schuster Blore

Verrills Avo McCullough Ramsay

The one whose going to score 100

Guess who wishes they held Gus?

I'd wait to see what the Storm's actual starting 17 is then bring in Munster or Hughes. Other option would be To'o.

Cleary better back the fuck up this week. Broke my team to bring his dumb chin into my team

Thoughts on that theory @Rabbits21

Talk off Souths forums is Reyno, Cook, Murray, AJ and maybe Gagai won’t play come kick off. Make of that what you will.

Correct spot on

It's not his call, but in the post match interview Turbo said he will definitely be playing next week

On another note, Ivan Cleary said they will do whatever is best for them (player restings?) to get ready for week 1 of the finals - irrespective of the minor premiership

If Parra and Roosters lose and Manly are guaranteed 4th I can’t see Turbo playing.

My gut is telling me Moses and Ipap both won’t play.

There's talk that Arthur is considering resting like 6 of their players, if true I'm certain both those two would be having a rest

@Stormtrooper96

Moses (you): 212
Foggy (me): 132

A rest for Moses and 80+ from Foggy is all I need to cruise to victory. Damn, I'm gonna rub it in too. Good luck mate.

That's pretty much my plan. If one of the storm halves is rested then in theory, it should see an increase for the other. Another one I'm seriously considering is that I haven't seen mentioned much is Hudson Young. He's been putting up some great scores with 80mins on the edge.

Happy TLT!

Let see if we can scrape together 17 players for this final round

Last fantasy-relevant TLT for the year. There might be tears! (when half of my squad is rested)

Selling him seemed like a sound move but having two EDG players get suspended for the rest of the season like a week or two later stung.

Really could have used him this round.
