    Ok, so Cook and Paulo are not in your fantasy team, good to know.

    I've been happy enough with Cook so far. Would be awesome if he could punch out a ceiling game for us though!

    All you're proving there is that the Knights bench middles got extra minutes last week because one of their props played half the game at second row.

    Basically this week (if no in-game injuries) you've got Crossland and Jirah picking up any Mann/Randall minutes between them and Croker/Thompson being the 3 and 4 props covering the 1 and 2 of the Saifitis. Depends how long you think the brothers will last, but somewhere between 40 and 60 minutes between them. I doubt Thompson will be playing anything like 38 minutes unless an injury intervenes (as it did last week when Barnett did not play 72 minutes as "starting prop", he played 42 minutes on the edge, leaving more prop minutes for Thompson and Croker. If you think Barnett is a "big minute starting prop", then what is DSaf?

    And that's before we talk about Klemmer coming back. How much does Thompson make in 3-4 weeks?
    Agree with you on the balance of Randall / Mann going to Crossland / Momoisea, as the first 2 weeks.
    Thompson and Croker get the balance of the Saifiti bro minutes.
    J Saf averaging 41 minutes the first 2 rounds (with any extras he may have picked up with injuries to other players)
    D Saf first game back, with no preseason, I would expect 45-50 minutes max.
    Leaves 69-74 minutes for Croker and Thompson for the next few weeks and they look capable of hitting 40 points each in that timeframe (both exceeded that last week in 34 and 38 minutes, within that range).
    Both have a BE of around 1. If 40 points this week, they would have a negative BE the following week.
    Any more injuries in the Knights pack and they keep getting opportunities even when Klemmer is back in 3-6 weeks.

    (a) Tuilagi out - Sexton in & 103k bank or
    (b) Tuilagi out - Yeo in & 1k bank

    Thanks.

    I reckon I'd get in on Sexton now. Hasn't really had a bad game Fantasy wise in his small sample and room for improvement on that average. Yeo can only maintain or go backwards on that average you would think.

    I can use him as a loop. Put Amone at 18, keep his score on Thursday if it’s decent enough. If not, put in Ilias instead.
    I’ve looped with these two before and it’s not pretty. Don’t waste the brain cells

    Leo is the priority this week, BE of 1ish. May needs a good score, then his BE will come down.

    Yeah, as Welshy said coming off last week is a concern but he did cop a couple of knocks.  Hopefully a 90 point game is coming.  Luckily he has been solid and not completely underwhelming which is positive.

    Wanted to bank 2 trades but Vailea to Thompson seems like a no brainer.

    Angus to Sexton gives me the cash to go Tuilagi/Bullemor to Starling. Thoughts?

    There wouldn't be a way to loop Tuilagi if I only have Bully, Coates and Ilias as loop options would there?

    Read something about Cook having an interview last week (think on Fletch and Hindy?) and being teased about whether he'd join Wayne  at the Dolphins and he said "nah, Wayne didn't like me much, he just wants his hookers to tackle and pass", so maybe, *maybe* we'll see the beach sprinter unleashed soon.

    Cook running lots in round 1 was one of the reasons that Souths did so badly. He would run to the line, then give a hospital pass to Cody. Needs to be giving him time and space.

    Put Tuilagi as your starting EDG and loop him that way. Use your bench EDG as the player to loop with. Wherever, your bench EDG moves it doesn't matter as it automatically takes the starting spot of the injured EDG player at end of round.

    I don't hate it. When trading, you want both sides of ledger to make sense. Sexton and Starling are good options. Tuilagi is out and ruined his BE anyway, makes sense. Angus is the tough part. Robbo just as likely to end up starting starting him come game day. Is known to follow a couple of 40's with a 90. Gut call.

    I think I briefly understand, can you have a geez of my team tracker and show me which players I'd do it with. Cause I want to use Coates, Bully and Ilias (yuck) in my loop but from what you said I guess only Bully would work cause he's an edge?

    Also just saw on Instagram that Sione Fainu (Manase's brother, or should I say Latu's) has signed with the Tigers.

    Great signing, he's a beast!
