domt they get added before last lockout lifts?

Most updates happen within few hours after game. Pretty sure some howlers points not given have happened multiple times last few seasons

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

If the dogs half’s keep stinking it up there’s always JRey

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.

I didn’t get to see any games but watched the Kayo mini (which doesn’t show much) and they were talking Trindall up. The disallowed try off his forward pass would have made his score much more palatable (assuming LBA and TA in lieu of an error). Did he not look good or just the score was a bit of a let down?

He was on 30 odd at HT and didn’t kick on. Sharks had a terrible second half but he looked like their only likely threat

If it helps, Moylan was dreadful also

All the ball in the 2nd half went to Moylan, who wasted it all, kicked the ball out on the full, dropped the ball, hospital pass which the tackled player turned over.

Didn't see second half but he was 35pts after beginning of second half and score kept going down until hit 20pts. I almost talked myself out of not getting him last minute when I saw his missed tackle history

Missed tackle wont be an issue for the coach, was typically when he was the 3rd tackler and dropped off

754 with 4 remaining. Boyd/talau/suaalii/b.smith. feeling pretty confident to get a half decent r1 rank compared to recent years.

I'll be wearing a Roosters away jersey and a black Taylormade cap.

You could also just look for the guy standing and applauding.

Been going back and forth on my Tino to Bird switch (HSS and Alamoti owner) and playing Uto this week. Feels like the right thing to do but will probably be terrible

Muchas Gracias!

Edit: failed multi-quote attempt. Thanks to everyone else too

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?

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

He could name Valemei or Schiller as well.

I think Croker is unlikely but it’s Ricky.

I'm tempted to downgrade DFifi and bring in Gilbert or Nicholls. Why/why not?

Pros: bank cash for next week
Cons: DFifi goes large and I don't have him

Good to get the runs on the board early, well done.

Which would make you feel worse?

- Stay with Fifi and he lazily plods his way to a 32
- Trade Fifi and have him score a 2 try 94?

I'd stick with Fifi... I will have a death picnic for him today - but I don't think it will be nearly as effective as last year. Gilbert and Nicholls are plodders that are nothing to write home about. Fifita wont break your season if he scores a little lower but will get you high if he starts well as expected.

DISCLAIMER - I moved Fifita out of my team so I could bring in Cleary - but I also wish I had not have as I was going to Captain HopGood

I hate the daylight savings 4pm and 6pm schedule.

2pm and 4pm games all the way

Was just thinking about the Trindall (saying he was a bust) gamble.
I'm happy with a basement price half getting 33 in a beaten team.
It was a calculated risk and cost me Doorey (who scored32).
If Hynes returns, straight swap - cost me a trade, no fuss. If Hynes is out for another couple of games, he could bust out a 50.
It's just part of the game.
