Sweet as. Can't start Monday morning with that looming over your head. He'll smash it though and might get overlooked the week people are shopping for hookers. A moustache is usually a dealbreaker for me.

I can't even complain about my scores really. Ford unlucky and Boyd just shit.. everyone else somewhere around average give or take. Gonna get smashed when people who copped 2-4 injuries get through unscathed.

how do you go at tipping?

ended up with 725 what a shite round & sitting at 23k rank which is shite too...my under performers were murray, robson, cleary, itt, talau, boyd, ford...maybe tedesco as he should have scored much more than he did

I hate this game. 729 with 150 sitting in my emergencies

- None of the HIA gang (Ford, CNK, Ponga etc) back up

- Hynes returns. Trindall to 14/18

- Cheese out injured or playing injured

- Boyd dropped

- Talau dropped/injured, Doueihi to centre

- Milne in for ITT

- Sims in for Loiero (very unlikely with NAS out, but seeing as we're dooming)

- Hastings suspended

- Drinkwater suspended

and the certainty that Cleary/Garner/Kenny/Luke are on bye

I'd take a couple of weeks of Douehi at CTR if he got DPP.

Dragged my score up to 797 at the end (including the 4 from Ford), overall rank 11,136

.... relatively happy

And then



Fukin bye bullshit.

Hodgson not looking so bad all of a sudden.

Fixed that for ya mate

Must trade-in players who have already had their byes - it's a big consideration at least

How many weeks does Suaalii get for not passing the ball to Tedesco? FFS!

Yeah I just had a thought that Croker could be a go at hooker for that reason - but $636k uh no thanks

Just a fine handed out by Uncle Nick. One less brown paper bag this week.

I feel like the sensible option this week would be to trade Cheese and Talau to Preston and HTF.

But the trade I want to make is Cheese and EButcher to Preston and DCE.

Teddy to Reece or Turbo? Reece looked incredible and the Bronco’s draw looks pretty good!

I hear ya on going EButcher to a gun HLF. I have surplus EDG players and he's the most obvious to go at that price.. but the dude has potential to bang out 50s and 60s and still only priced around 40.

Holzman wrote:anyone going to risk it picking up Ponga for low 400s.

at this rate seems like he will get a HIA every second week.

No way, he is just on thin ice every week.

735 with 201 sitting in my emergencies! Absolute scenes!

His bye in Rd4 is swaying me slightly. Would be great to get a gun HLF with no byes for the next 10 weeks...

Looking at needing a real HLF, with Ponga, Boyd and Trindall in my team (also Douehi and Katoa).

My early trade thoughts are:
NAS > Reynolds
Ponga > Kiraz

Can do Butcher > Walsh next week if he is still not getting attacking chances.

Also frees me up to trade Boyd if he gets dropped, or continues to score badly, as Mahoney doesn't have a bye for a while and can run Reynolds / Douehi in halves, with Katoa as a just in case back up.

Reynolds is looking ideal for no byes through to 13, no origin, then a straight swap to Hynes for the other 2 bye rounds.

CTRs always seems to be next week's problem to fix up. Maybe we get Te Whare in the next few weeks and everything is solved instantly.

Team would be:
Mahoney
Harris Cotter Carrigan
Hopgood Preston
Reynolds Douehi
Alamoti HSS
Kiraz Miller Warbrick

Tapine Butcher Carty Trindall
May Katoa Boyd Talau
