The thing that has me convinced is the fact that he made 20 runs on the weekend, compared to 11-12 in the three games he played as starting fullback last year. If he's running the ball 20 times a game, I'm willing to back him in, and JMK is definitely capable of setting him up again like he did against the Chooks.

CTR dual is also so valuable, as I can then run him and Bird at centre and not need to play any of the basement price guys, not to mention Cheese won't make much money before the bye even with two 50s so I can't see him running away in price soon. I would be willing to get back on Cheese once the Chooks get their middles back and if he looks like playing the big-minute hooker role we all bought him for.

Great analysis and thanks! Maybe the spray Mr Wayne gave him before the start of the season was what he needed, looked far more engaged and against a good side

Seems to be the case, but it's a scary trade to make given my past propensity for rash trade-outs, and the fact that Cheese is close to 50% owned.

At this point I think I'll go ahead though, as getting Hammer in significantly helps my back 5 (would be him, Bird, Walsh, Miller and Warbrick as frontline starters) and it means I can play Carty Party in the place of Talau/Alamoti, whereas if I keep Cheese I have to play one of those two guys and leave Carty out.

It was outrageous that we had to give up our team news so early! Giving the competition an extra hour or planning, just because we live in the future. One of the big reasons our year was so poor last year!

Well props to you, I think going confidently for Hammer is one of the riskier moves overall. But I like risk anyway in my choices.
Just view him as that svelte,slight, light guy who wouldn't be able to be fantasy relevant. But yeah mindset via the coach and a new start  plus he is young enough to change it up, u could be right.

Nahhh....bullshit

What you are really asking for is to be able to say any old crap you want and not to be held accountable for it. If anyone disagrees they get called a snowflake.

You can hold whatever view you want but expect other people to disagree with it. I don't think you got banned for holding an unpopular opinion did you?

Much like ignoring dogmatic fantasy advice you can choose to ignore anything 'political' you don't agree with but when you choose to engage with it then the response is on you.

Life is political.

I don't want to get bogged down in this debate here.

Freedom of speech is just that. If I or anyone else choose to respond they should be able to. If you get offended at things that are said the issue is with you, not me.

You don't need to look far to see what problems that's caused over the last few years in the real world.

As far as I'm concerned you can all say whatever you want.

I never got banned.

Cool, cool. I'm old enough and ugly enough to be aware there is a big wide world out there where people have different opinions than me which I may think are wrong, that's fine, they can voice those opinions and I'm not going to call them names but I will respond with an opposing view.

If you say something and don't want or like the response that's not really embracing freedom of speech.

i'm going to leave it now, I have a suspicion we are arguing the same thing....back to the pretend rugby league

Edit : I'm glad you didn't get banned

Anyway: via DT
Nicho Hynes will miss a second game, ruled out of Cronulla’s clash with Parramatta on Friday night.

In a blow for the Sharks who are aiming to notch their first win of the year, Hynes has been kept on ice as he recovers from a calf injury.

In positive signs for the Dally M medallist, he has returned to training in a limited capacity.

Hynes will aim to return for the Sharks round three clash against the Raiders.
