Turbo-esque season

Look I would expect some regression, he’s probably only a 58.5 avg type player in the long run.

#LateMail No sign of Jordan Riki again today. Looks like Zac Hosking will start for the Broncos. Brendan Piakura set to play his first NRL game of the year.

Drove past on my way to get a coffee this morning........couldn't tell shit at 50km/h while trying hard to avoid hitting the early bird geriatric pokie fiends. There were a bunch of big dudes in Broncos gear having a run and one dude in Broncos gear talking to some press.

One stop scoop shop

Not fantasy relevant in the slightest, but god I hate Fox Sports' headline style.

Headline: Drinkwater signs MONSTER extension worth $3.2m

Reality: 5 year deal worth $650,000 per season.

Reckon Mitch Kenny plays close to 80, both hooker and backrow ?

No SJ tomorrow. Bit of a bummer. SJ at home is better lol

Watching kayo mini of last nights game (have day off work) and it occurred to me… was there a debate earlier this year where someone said Isaako could sign with Eels and replace Gutho?

Or is this something I imagined.

I think the plan was replacing Sivo, not Gutho, but I think it was rumoured at one point - no idea if it was ever at all likely

Catching up, it’s Nanai. Just gets in as only played 4 games previously (which is the cutoff to be classed as a rookie)

But I agree that Penisini is probably a more complete player than those 2 you mention right now.

Can see Penis and Suaalii as Origin centres in a couple of years. If they both don’t end up in rugby

Yeah surely it's Nanai then daylight.

Reece Walsh walks out for the captain’s run at Mt Smart wearing a moon boot. Everyone thinks he’s out for tomorrow’s game. He smiles, takes it off and puts his footy boots on. #warriors #NRL

Is Kenny going to be the starting Hok at Penrith next season with Koro gone?

Good question.. Kenny get the job done?

He hasn't really impressed me at hooker. I think he's been better at the running lock role like Cotter. Sonny Luke a hooker?

I'm more surprised you were able to get past the use of Penisini and throbbing in the same sentence.

Narrowed my last trade down to two options:

TU: Reynolds to Olakuatu
TD: Lolo to C Walker, history of going big against the Roosters

Want to use it on a high ceiling option, bugger it. Either one will go in the loop.

Surely you have better options.
Olakau’atu gave up 6 weeks ago and there’s no bigger fuckwit in the NRL than Cody Walker.

Yeah, neither.

Who would you go for instead in that price range?

Can afford up to $627k for Reynolds or $599k for Lolo, no one else I'm that keen to trade.

Wighton, Drinky, Frizz, Holmes the other ones I was potentially considering.

Obvious answer then - leave Reynolds at #18

Trade Lolo to someone in the last 3 games if Reynolds scores poorly (as for who, sorry nfi, take a wild punt)

Would anyone go Tohu to Carrigan/Klemmer instead of the above options?
