Made 170k odd for me. Might jump on Papali'i now that I can afford it and puts a gun @ edge where I'm lacking big time.

If i was in a situation to turn Talakai in Papalii i 100% would

99% of commentators and pundits on social media agreed with Kennedy sitting out the game as far as I've seen. I think most people in here agreed with it too.
Ramien probably escaped the send off due to the Sharks already being one down. I don't think that's right but it's not a new thing.

Yeah I get it but Ramien no arms shoulder to the head was gross. That's the one that can really injure someone

Ramien is a dead duck. Probably a month for that.

Brought in DCE over Cleary and capt Hynes. Not looking at bringing Cleary until after origin so really rolling the dice.
One of the reasons was Sharks have a nice run of fixtures so happy to back Haynes as capt over the next few weeks

I still can't get over the fact that the Warriors didn't know they could bring Sironen into the game until journos asked if they were going to.

Sums it up for me. No plan, no ability to adapt, no leadership.
Players are failing because the club is failing them.

Was going to post must be at least 4 weeks. That shit can really fark a player long term. Needs to be stamped out. Should make an example of him. Worst thing was all his teammates celebrating. In context they hadn't seen the replay but worst part of league. Needs to be zero tolerance for that

Pretty funny after taking a cheap shot and telling me I was a shit fantasy player I have outscored him 400 points in 2 weeks and now miles in front of him and no doubt will be MIA for a period of time. As predictable as my dog.

Just need to wait for Hynes to start scoring 40s again and Mulitalo scoring a hattrick each week and it will start to been out.

Congrats mate glad you’re making up ground keep sticking at it. Still you can make massive ground.

That didn't take long.

Hynes really stuck the boot in with that score.

To join the chorus of scores / ranks report:
The Bludgers scrapped together 900 points (not too bad), but they dropped from 2151 to 2219 (they just love sitting around the 2k rank). Round rank of 15500 
No Teddy & Grant is hurting me. 

Pappy may have to become Turbo (or Teddy if I can find the extra coin)
Tago, Thomson, Schnitty, Taaffe all needing to be shifted soon.

Im in the same spot. Will likely not bring cleary in til after origin. May even pass on Turbo and just let nofo take the WFB spot. Have to get pappy back in at some point anyway.

Anyone interested in Nick meaney for a possible trade in, low key killed it last few games admittedly with a glut of tries, but he’ll be kicking at goal now and maybe playing FB,

Just catching up. Had an absolute mare this week, 759 dropped me from 6000ish to 11000ish.

Early thoughts are Hunt to McInnes and Jones to Elliott. Hunt can get out of my team - 46 missed tackles so far this year!!

Ah well, always next week (...year).

I remember Hunt murdering me one year for the first 6-8 weeks when I owned Milford. So I bought Hunt too and he turned into an absolute turnstile missing like 10 tackles a game.

Never wanted him near my team again. Just felt like sharing my own "fuck BHunt" story since not many others have him.

I called it out as being the worst trade in fantasy history and got labelled a cunt, maybe I was just trying to be helpful because it truly has been an absolute shit show.

Admit you fucked up mate and trade Talakai to Hynes before you end up at the bottom of the FOGS league.

Didn’t watch footy today, finally caught up on the forum.

Thought the Kennedy tackle was a fair enough send off, but probs not as bad as the Tupou one where he didn’t even get the bin. Not that I’m bitter about that.

Then the Ramien one was worse - if it’s not a grade 3 shoulder charge I dunno what would be. The tackle contact was all face. Also Aitken going off would’ve stopped my fantasy charge. Ended up gaining 150 ranks, still around 13000th lol

I'd forgotten about that and was a good read. Explains some of your recent posts

Meanwhile I was told my comment about Talakai won't average 50+ after the banner isn't going to age well. I even mentioned scoring in the 30s and 40s is gonna result in people taking the money and running. Didn't expect the 30 and 40 to come immediately, but CTRs aye?

802 for the round ... let's move on to round 10

If Meany gets the fullback spot he mightn't be a bad handcuff for Papy holders. Average of 35 at fullback but that was playing for a dreadful dogs side. Would score much better at FB for Storm you'd think.

It’s the trade or hold Papy scenario again!

Think I’d rather take the punt on Warbrick it he gets Reimis’ spot
