Less than 30k diff between Cotter and AFB with no origin !!

Good point about origin.
I can actually afford anyone, so back to the drawing board.

I've gone Sipley.
If nothing else he'll make a bit of cash short term and can try upgrade him later.

Then just tossing up Horse or JDB for my 2nd row cover

My thoughts too. At least we'll all be in it together

Damn I just bought Nikora too

Hynes for Captain, but looks like most did the same. Was hoping for a ranking jump

Finally broke the top 100 (99th) For this round Hynes captain was good but Holmes was poor.

@quicksand
Thanks for making me rethink that Cotter trade. I didn't go with AFB either though. Went with ............ Tino.
Could be a make or break round for me. More chance of break than make.
Good luck everyone.

not having latrell is not good

Left Welch is my 17 and lost most of my H2H bu 30-40 FML !!

922 for me sees me maintain rank. Code Delta still at 1, but big mover is Pacey who scored 1042 and jumped up to 4th

i may play bula this week as miller has the bye....bula looks the goods & was great against the panthers in the wet setting up a try & hardly making a mistake...up against the dragons this round he could go well
the only fb worth selling miller for is latrell but he's 860k & doesn't play rd. 13 & i might have to pass on him hoping his price comes down but until rd 13 the play storm, WESTS & EELS so i can't see his price falling that much.

That's a tough one re Latrell. I've had him for quite a few weeks and he's been outstanding. I'm not sure yet, but I think I will sell him after round 12 for the Origin period. Latrell will only play 4 of the 8 rounds between 13-20 as South's also have a bye in round 20 so Latrell will miss 13,16,19 and 20. And what if he doesn't back up in rounds 14 or 17. I'm planning on getting Will Penisini who is perfect for me through the byes. I have the same problem in NRL fantasy as I don't have Latrell there and not having him is killing my team scores each week. I think I will follow my own advice and not get him there. Good luck WL.

So VSDT is the same as in the NRL Fantasy. 3 fanatics in the top 6 overall. Well done all.
I had Wash score 4, TPJ 2, Sipley 18 and Turuva 16 in my starting 17 last week and simply can’t believe I didn’t lose ranks. Pretty happy with that.
Initial thoughts this week is to keep all of the above. Think I can get away with only one of them in the 17 this week. I don't want to give up on TPJ or Walsh just yet.
I’m likely to be trading out Alamoti and Ford. They’ve done their job and there’s more points and cash to be made elsewhere maybe.
I’ll wait for quicksand to guide me.

Well done to all at the pointy end and especially Pacey this round - thought you were a big chance at the weekly to be honest.

I've managed to work back to 20th and am reasonably happy with the team but what I have struggled with this year is picking the right 17 each week and/or capt and VC.

Much like my tipping this year, I can't seem to work out which teams are going to win and win well each week - which is normally a big advantage but is seriously costing me a lot of points this year.

thanks milchy

You are in a world of trouble my friend if your best strategy is waiting for guidance from me !!

Thanks for the BE's Milch.
