Cheese to Leo Thompson? Should have a starting sopt for 5 weeks.

yeah Leo Thomson vs Uto is an interesting one, both pretty much priced the same.

Knights have Saifiti suspended for 5 games and Mann and Elliot out injured 6 weeks so you'd think Thomsons minutes will be good?

Doubtful sounds less than 50% to me. My hopes were about 80% before.

Hopefully it's one of those blessings in disguise where BMM jags a 50 out of nowhere..

Would hopefully be some news Friday at captains run from one of the journos that hang around Red Hill like a bad smell.

The Knights have a half and centre on the bench, minutes wise you'd think he gets 50+

Perhaps the half pushes Gamble to lock.

Either way, yeah, they are way down on troops.

IKatoa for 60+

The team in 11th is entirely eels and storm players. Clearly set up to be able to have a live rank of 1 at the end of the first game of the season, but surprisingly they're still right up there.

Reckon this strategy could be applied and then still have a genuine shot at trading Ur way out of it ?

Because Y is a crooked letter and you cannot bend it straight

Rules is rules I suppose

The Dolphin Conspiracies wrote:Who is everyone playing as their starting halves this week with Cleary OUT

I have Doueihi & Brooks

If Doueihi is out I will just play Boyd

Brooks was supposed to be a placeholder that was about half way to Hynes in R6 but he may end up being very very valuable in ways I had not imagined

Ikat and Doueihi. Boyd backup.

Genuinely think they were trying to make it easier so you could run any 13 players in your 21 in the big byes, but they fucked it up.

Is it bad form to quote yourself?  He is my response  to Teeth eater in the autofill thread when he wrote of his chances of defending his title after round 1.

So,  calm your tits,  there are another 24 rounds after this one....

Bunnies TV at Captains run, speculating Jed to come into 17, Taaffe dropped, Host back next week, Trell no strapping, Jai 1-2 weeks

Are Gulers minutes going to stay around the same? Fully aware it's Sticky and all

You can quote yourself, just don't start referring to yourself as Moanaman (e.g. Moanaman likes Host over Lawrie)

Moanaman likes Chee Kam over both

That does not make Aardvark happy (clearly BMM could eat Chee Kam for breakfast and indeed may already have)

"Bye round (13, 16 & 19) score reduced to 13 players (not 17), where 13 on field players will contribute to the total of the fantasy score, with standard auto-emergency substitution in play. Regular substitutions & trades can be done during the round"

This isn't particularly clear. Has there been a clarification at some point that players on the interchange won't count if they double up a position you already have covered in your 13?

Just want to make sure we aren't incorrectly assuming that is the case.

Maybe reduces when Big Papy comes back

I think I’ve just about been talked into Leo. Knights have no one, and just read he was a centre in u20s, so he has the motor (I hope). All signs point to 50+ mins. Maybe.

Genuine question - need some forum wisdom.
Was all set on going E.Butcher + Talau > Walsh + Preston
But, Tohu looks really tempting at $750k (season keeper middle and all that)
I could instead ditch the almighty Chin + Talau, keep E.Butcher another week and pick up Tohu + Preston.
Thoughts?
Arguments for / against Tohu / Walsh.

TU - stick with your original plan, Walsh + Preston
TD - go for broke, Tohu + Preston
(which would mean E.Butcher becomes Walsh next week, unless someone else is knocked out and will miss multiple rounds).

Cheers.
