Keep talking, I'm interested...

Will wait for @Honeysett to get back on to debate on finer bet details, but something along the lines of winner picks an avatar of choosing for the loser/s...could set a round say 10 so we can see it happening earlier haha instead of waiting on seasons end

Sounds pretty good to me, Quite like the idea of setting a round also, that way I can give you a tasty Avatar leading into origin season

I have no idea who or what KOD is but yes rotten luck indeed having those two (Milch said it was a good idea so who am i to argue haha no im kidding there)

And yes sorry about the confusion, i just re read it and even i got confused. Cheers guys will mull them over, Carter will have to wait till next week unless of course he goes back to his old self.

 Kiss of death I assume

Nice work HS put a smile on my dial after an aweful week injury wise, and thx Milchy for the BE,s this joint really adds to the Fantasy experience thx all, after mucking around with a few options my last idea is to Trade out ARey for Cody Walker as a stop gap measure ( could end up being Sandow MK2 ) and to bring in Peats for Seggy freeing up some cash for next week to work on the rest of the team.

Unlucky AR.

If you keep that up Filth and I will be inviting you to join the KOD family. Most of the old KOD brothers from the halceyon days of 2010-2012 (e.g. arsendragon, Dreadlord, Yanjarra, etc) have moved on from Sportal/FF.

After 18mths out of Fantasy , I actually threw a side together a few hours before kick-off ST - pretty happy with the KOD fallout - only lost Lichaa and Benry

Not bad considering past disasters

Thoughts on JFriend as a gun hooker? Is he likely to continue playing 75-80 mins?

Dropping gallen for carter but need to replace liicha with someone decent I think.

Would love to bring in walker but cant bring myself to trade ash taylor out and cant shuffle things around to make it fit.

Morning everyone, new here but not my first visit to your forum.

Team looks like

Smith, J Nikorima
Graham, Bromwich, K Evans, Packer
Parker, Surgess, Rochow (N Green, V Laulaui, J Saifiti)
Johnson, Hastings, C Walker (A Taylor )
Cuthbertson, J Leilua (Auvu'a, Benry)
Barba, Gordon, B Ferguson ( Feeney, L Mitchell)

I have made the 2 trades, I did have Lichaa and I had the wrong Nikorima so he definitely had to go. I brung in C Walker and the right Niko. I am probably going to hit reverse trade button a few times haha.

Of Walker, JNiko, Carter which one should I leave for another week?

My early thoughts on ranking my benchies in tiers:
JNiko
Evans/Hastings
Packer/Carter
Pat Mata'uita/Jacob Saifiti
Bhana/Taylor
Feeney/Mitchell
Benry

It's a bit of a lottery.

JNiko- Makes around 20 tackles a game which is huge base stats for a half.
Hastings- Seems to do the majority of long kicking so should pick up 20-25 points in kick metres a week
Evans- Bigger minutes and a huge motor. When they tackle busts come he will score into the 40s
Packer- Looked terrible in his first spell but came off the bench and was having 2 hit ups a set. Not sure which Packer turns up this week.
Carter- Career high score on the weekend. Not sure if he can replicate it but should be good for 30-35

I would personally go with Niko, Hastings, Evans, Packer. If you are nervous about too many Roosters swap Niko for Carter as he is more reliant on attacking stats

Anyone stuck with Green, Henry in the CTRs? What are you planning on doing in the future? I'm not comfortable running Gutherson there for the foreseeable

Running Gutherson this week, mainly to give myself another week to decide. Bird or kata looking like possibilities

Welshy wrote:Anyone stuck with Green, Henry in the CTRs? What are you planning on doing in the future? I'm not comfortable running Gutherson there for the foreseeable

I've got all three of those also. Slowly coming round to the idea of just riding it out until a cow emerges or even origin time, strengthening other areas and hoping Gutherson goes on a scoring spree or Green gets more minutes again. I think it would take too much fucking about with the rest of the team to try and fix it any time soon.

I have both in centres, but I also have Fergie and Hunt to play.
My problem is still having Feeney as starting wfb

Green JLJ

The money I saved from getting JLJ instead of Hunt is worthless now.

They NPRs though. Aubo and BJ starting

Yep. Very tempted to drop green for a keeper like bird to shore up the ctr position.

Welshy wrote:Anyone stuck with Green, Henry in the CTRs? What are you planning on doing in the future? I'm not comfortable running Gutherson there for the foreseeable

When the round ended I had Green, Henry, Littlejohn and Gutherson as centres so I shuffled Aubbo down to run with Aubbo and Gutherson this week. Will deal with the problem when Gutherson makes a bit more cash

Welshy wrote:Anyone stuck with Green, Henry in the CTRs? What are you planning on doing in the future? I'm not comfortable running Gutherson there for the foreseeable

Me too , I am hoping they use Auva'a as a back up forward but that is really stretching it ...................

Yeah its horrible but will ride it out and strengthen other areas. Until cow or keeper form aettles and become obvious.
