Until we see how they handle the minutes I'm not going to pass judgment. RFM's minutes have been ramping up the last few weeks and I suspect they're going to move Waddell into the middle at 15-20 mins and bring RFM on to play out the game, it'd fit the trend of his minutes ramping up and means they only use one interchange on him instead of two.

Sure he can knock out those monster games where he just carves up & plays brilliantly but he has a low floor as well. Also his perceived attitude is a problem i.e. he doesn't look interested...this started last year & has continued into this year & when he lifted in origin 1 & had a good game this just further stoked the uninterested tag.
I just don't buy into this.
Not sure if you're a cricket fan, but to me, it's a bit like the accusations against Usman Khawaja a couple of years ago that often looked lazy or uninterested when he got out, even when he said multiple times that was just his demeanour and of course he was trying.

I now feel like taking a wild gamble by playing Kiraz over RFM
Winger over bench forward.....

Wading into the Ponga commentary (biased observation as I got him 5-6 rounds ago when I could've paid not a huge much more for Teddy).
In the game against the Warriors (round 12), he came alive and looked interested when the Warriors took the lead at the 50min mark. Once the knights got more than 8 ahead at the 68 minute mark, he appeared to step back again. I think this is what I (& I assume others) find frustrating: he looks like he could do more because there are patches where he does step up.
Also, I might be alone in this opinion - I thought he was pretty quiet in State of Origin too. He did set up one good try on purpose, but I thought he wasn't much of a threat. I thought Teddy was multiples classes ahead.

Yeah obviously Teddy is way better than him, but the way I see it, I already own him, he'll be 502k so priced at 35, and historically averages mid 40s in the run home. I can cop the 30s if he gets the odd 100 to counter that, I'm happy to just play the average with him and save a trade instead of tearing my team apart to get rid of him for Papy (when I can instead trade a guy with two busted shoulders to get Papy back)

RFM could still work out but in hindsight I should’ve used Peoples at starting EDG for looping. Could’ve had Walters in for RFM, in a roundabout way. Hard one to foresee though.

Until we see what Potter does with RFM's minutes, I will wait and see.
I'm suspecting RFM comes on early and stays on, with Waddell moving to the middle, but that might just be hopium

That's my guess. He's 18th man for me, so not too concerned.

He was 18th man until I forgot to rearrange my bench after Friday nights games.....I do have the flexibility to swap Kiraz in for him though

I've dropped 200 ranks, but have Koulas 55 + 5 in this game. Outside chance of cracking the top 5k for first time this season if all goes well.
Honestly, will be happy with 80 non-injury affected minutes.

I got freaked out by the concern around DBrown playing,
Having to make a call before the Raiders game (trading Starling out) I have ended up with Moses in my team.
Just wanted to share with you all how disappointed I am with myself letting him into my squad. Can't stand him, however, I hope he has a blinder.

Ha, ha was fucking around swapping RFM and Kiraz and didn't realise it was 4 o'clock......looks like it's going to be a hat trick for the winger (no fucking chance

I'm watching this game through you guys so I don't want any shortages on posts about missed TB's and TO's. I want to be informed on every single fucking one.
