Rochow vs Whitehead vs Turner

Rochow - you know what u are going to get 80 minutes, consistent scores will ave about 40.
Turner - massive injury risk, will play big minutes as well
Whitehead - no idea sorry never seen him play but sounds like has the potential to be a gun and potential 80 minute player

I did the same thing in VSDT and only noticed at the last minute. No excuses for us, it's not like its our first time.

I think i screwed up the best.

Had no access to Fantasy yesterday so had to run with what i had from Wed night. Was playing around with my team with different formations etc. Thought i had only Gutherson as a npr.

Logged on this morning to see im on 25 points??? apparently i had stupidly put Gordon in my backs when farting around. Previously had Tedesco.

Now i've just notice i didn't pick a Captain or VC as i wiped my team in the afternoon playing around? Been doing this for over 5+ years now and dont think i have ever done something so retarded!

Gordon will be fine, don't stress his score and don't trade rage him. no captain on the other hand.....

gordon 25 in a team that did very little is not something to trade rage over.

thats basically his low end score right there.

You guys are blessed that Gordon finished on 25. Stop bitching and be grateful he didn't finish on 6 like he should have

I concur. Don't worry mate, your faith in Mann will be repaid well come Monday night (i hope so for your sake and mine

Still not confident on Mann but I find it hard to pass up good value. Good luck!

Might take Littlejohn over Auva'a now. If Littlejohn has the potential to be in for a month or so and maybe come in around origin time he could be alright.

If Slater doesn't make it for Monday night then I'll take Mann.

why a month or so?

Good pick up, thanks. We will have to wait and see but i reckon all this late mail reporting of the position changes is just from that one bloke s rumour and he didn't even get littlejohns name right or something.

I will be checking for final teams before that match though just to make sure, making a plan tonight of what to do if anythings amiss.

if he shares hooking with Cherrington this week, he'll do it when Halatau returns as well?

That's just a guess, don't otherwise know why he would stay in the team barring injury. But its not like Halatau is a superstar who demands inclusion, so I guess its a possibility

Hey peeps need some help.

I need someone for my starting 13 out of Feeney, Copley and Mitchell. Im thinking in that order but maybe Copley safer bet?

I also need one more reserve scorer from whoevers left from that lot and Ash Taylor, Benry, Leuluai, Saifiti, Bhana, and J Nikorima

Any suggestions?

i guess the question is does brooks walk straight back into the team or not. if the tigers win then JLJ probably gets another start. if they dont then he's gone after 1 week?

Have just downgraded whitehead to carter so that i can bring in teddy. Is Teddy worth it? Really want him in my team but is 482k too much for a wfb

Forgot the position if you think any player valued 482K will deliver on their price then select them in your squad. The only downside is that as a WFB he may have down games but on the upside Tedesco will also have a couple of games where he goes BIG. He is a WFB keeper who is a POD, if you have the cash to splash I say go for it.

So after not selecting Peats like I should (As I have in Ultimate and should have trusted my gut instinct) do I run with Lichaa or Segeyaro? Having Taylor on the bench who could potentially spell Seggy scared me off however with rumors of ET possibly playing NSW Cup I am tempted to jump back on the Seggy train. Then again ET could still play this week and spend some time at dummy half. Obviously I need to decide before lockout tonight.

Thoughts?

Lichaa is the safe bet, should give a pretty safe 50-60.

Seggy is riskier but with the potential for the big big scores. Tyrone Peachey could still play a bit of dummy half (or Peachey/Carty at five-eighth with Wallace at hooker)
And if temperateures in Canberra tomorrow are as hot as forecast Seggy will surely get a rest at some point (Hodgson too) but if you get him you have him for the long haul, so don't worry too much about week 1 scores.

You probably want Teddy in your final 17.

options are
a) get him now
b) wait until he drops a bit in price and get him then.

If you go option b) you have to hope that when (if) he drops in price you have a trade and cash free to bring him in. And also be prepared to miss out on whatever scores he puts up whilst you are waiting.

If you go option a) then it means you have to sacrifice elsewhere in your starting team in order to afford him.

I have gone b) but I am concerned about not starting with him
