Alimoti and HSS - would have been happy getting 50 out of them (combined) but as it is a bit disappointed

Katoa - probably ok in isolation, but with Loiero doing better for less I feel like I picked the wrong storm edge.

Turbo - didn't watch the game but going off what people said he was quite involved so 40 is a bit disappointing (given I also have Latrell who did not much for a 60+)

I don't have Trbojevic and I am thinking that I won't get him in until Siebold feels comfortable enough not to play Weekes on the bench as cover. He is certainly on my watch list at that price though

Thank you WL and Finchy those are all good reasons. So far only have to make one change. However am worried about Kenny moving forward

Only real disappointments Ponga, Trindall, Preston I guess.

Ponga is fine, Preston is fine, Trindall could be a trade to whichever cheapie I missed if Hynes is back. Don't really have any trade plans. Hodgson to Ilias frees up a bit of cash if I need it.

Ilias is going on the watchlist, maybe it was an outlier game as Souths usually favour the left edge in attack

domt they get added before last lockout lifts?

Everyone I spent proper money on scored well.

Everyone I cheaped out on scored poorly.

Strange game this.

Makes it difficult to upgrade people when you have no one you want to down grade

Trindall speaks like he already knows he'll be there next week atleast

Where'd you see him interviewed?

Basically Rapana & Graham 3 weeks each, unless fight the charge and lose, then it's 4 weeks

Perhaps HSS to wing, Croker to centre?

Who else do Raiders have?

He got interviewed by the Fox panel after the game. I didn't hear what he was saying though.

Rapana is either an idiot or a grub, or both. No doubting he is an all effort player, Busts his arse for his team, but then has these moments that’ll stitch the team up for weeks.

A Hopoate was named at #18 on TLT so probably next in line.

Burton and talakai I added for last years drama and they didn’t disappoint haha
I thought Carty would too but he was my biggest surprise
It’s a shame Milford wasn’t an option as would have grabbed him too
I don’t see Maloney coming back so got to make do where I can

Chee kam is usually one too as I was only promised 37pts but the oracle wasn’t right
Not sure if I missed anyone

He is a pretty confident little unit, could be just his personality

I wouldn’t be concerned for Tapine. Yes 45 seems underwhelming however those Canberra forwards are not used to the stinking hot weather even Ricky complained about having to be there round 1.

He’ll build his minutes Tapine is someone Ricky wants there all year so he’ll flog the younger ones in games like this.

Plus he only had one offload and one tackle break and still made 40 tackles I think. He’ll be right I wouldn’t be trading him out

on rapana when he kicked the ball away & conceded a pen putting his team under more pressure when at that stage were already under the pump i mean does he have a brain or is he as my father used to say "as thick as a 4 by 2"

Or was it geniius? Conceded a pen, Rather than a 6 again. Cows took the 2, missed. And no pressure was mounted.

Yes, I understand this is a stretch and gives rapana Waaaay to much credit

Best part about the Dolphins joining is another game I can watch in Brisbane as a chooks fan

It also provides some hope for the bulldogs this year too
