Do you have Carter? and who are your hookers? Pretty happy with my Smith Jnik + 3 cow halves Hastings, Walker and Taylor however don't see Taylor making any real quick money this year.

Taylor ain't going to be the cow I thought he was going to be.

Jstands is notorious for wanting to trade players in/out over 1 game.

He just posts every trade idea that pops into his head, he doesn't commit to 99% of them.

I have Segeyaro who is my trade out, but no plans to bring in Carter this week. My 2RF is Sue, Whitehead, Rochow, Taia, Bhana, and Saifiti. So want to wait a week before downgrading someone for him.

All these people taking solace in having Smith and no injuries... Has not played yet... This round has already produced unprecedented numbers of injuries...just saying!

I've never had my CTRs and WFB score on about the same level as my Hookers and Frontrowers ...
Hopefully this won't happen again

Fair call.

Karma happened to me with Seggy after I mocked the poor bastards that selected Lichaa

Russell Packer is not only playing for 2 competition points tonight but also his fantasy life! If he stinks it up he will be an easy swap for Carter, if he goes alright he'll live for now...

What do we think a top 10 score is gonna look like this round?

I read somewhere that he may have hurt his ankle early on in the game so was only taking short kicks close to the line. I did not notice him limping during the game so maybe less kicking was just a precaution.

Apparently he has a very good long kicking game so I would expect more kick meters in the future.

Lol very much this

Garvey will be a great option. Kid can play footy, likes to tackle and likes to bust tackles. Wonder if he will get a full 80 at hooker

The top 10 already has scores of 920 down to 840 odd, hopefully all of their players are done.

Des loves his 80 minute rakes so he can worry about interchanging the big boys, but I honestly have no idea if Garvey has the motor for it

I'm heading for 750 tops. Underperfoming guns and reserved 80-minute tackle missing machine Ngreen

Q: Who will play halves for the Raiders with Williams?
Q: Hookers: Garvey (mins?) Panthers hooker (who?), Randell (80mins) or J Nik and get Cody Walker in?
Q: Will Cherrington get more minutes this week?
Q: Is it worth dumping DCE for another cash cow? Manly are in disarray.
Q: WFB cheapie to start instead of fafa-Feeney? Got Barba and Mansour need another 30pt-er.

Matai and taupau cleared

I really thought taupau was gonna get a week or 2

For those considering Randell at Hooker after his 80 minute stint. Danny Levi was a late omission from the Reserve Grade team because of a back injury, not because he was considered as a back-up for Randell. (Levi is expected to be back for round 2 reserve grade)

820+ There will be a few teams that have scored really well this week but in 3 weeks time they will be back or behind the pack.

I thought it was a shoulder rub ... not a shoulder charge
