(I think mine isn't greaT?)

604 with Preston/HSS/Alamoti/Trindall to go - Put the C on Hopgood as most of us did

I think I should get 700, probably at least 720, feels like 50ish points below par this week?

560/11(c) - Sutton, Trindall, Alamoti, Doueihi, Preston and HSS to play

477/10c. Sutton, Trindall, Doueihi, HSS, Alamoti, Preston, Utoikamanu to come.

509 with Trindall, HSS, Alamoti, Perham, Preston, Sutton.

Need the Dogs to go well or I’m cooked

nevermind - i did some bad maths

despite the titans winning & scoring 38 points not 1 player over 50 fantasy points

672 / 14 ( c )

Only hss , alamoti , uto left

The bad had to play katoa as my half and got warbricks score
The good Walsh, turbo , teddy , Miller, cap tohu

the warriors fb tuaupiki is much better than old slow man cnk...i wonder if webster sees this & we have a new cashie to target

This. Walsh will be exactly like Pap I reckon. He is a small little fast guy who isn't a real tackle breaker but if he gets in space then a lot of points will come. I would like to have him but can't get him yet.

Hopefully not the injury parts of Paps

In the presser he answered that with a no cnk is an international and taines a good kid who knows he has a long future of 1st grade ahead will go back to cup n get hungrier something like this

660/13c - Sutton, hss, alamoti, preston.

With the quality of player I have left, I’d genuinely be pumped cracking 780

I suspect Fifita got a break because he’s only marginally fitter than BMM.

I think it's this. People complain when he gets a rest, but he's obviously not fit enough. The coach sees how he trains every week. Some weeks he'll play 80 some weeks he won't. He made a fair few runs in the 1st half, could have taken some gas out.

He makes a lot of tackles, in the top 3 for Titans players each game this season. The narrative is that he 'does nothing' but his base stats are up there at the higher end compared to other edge forwards. eg he is basically avg the exact same tackles/run metres as IPAP to start this season (small sample etc). Its the expectation that he will run through gaps palming off blokes game after game, but he is  the most marked up player in their team.

Big games will come, obviously.

554/11+C.

Fellow non-Katoa owner here. If trading in now he'd need to be a keeper. Is he a keeper? Gut says...probably.

I'm in the same boat roughly...

599 with Preston, Trindall, Sutton, HSS and Alamoti

547 with Tapine, HSS, Alamoti, Perham, Trindall and Preston

649/13c - Doueihi, Trindle, Alamoti and Preston to play

It was also pretty disgusting conditions for rugba league.

I think this was a big factor. Holbrook said the main reason he “hooked” Foran was that the Boyd HIA gave him a chance to leave Campbell on a bit in the heat and Foran could come back fresh at the backend. If it’s so gross you’re rotating halves then the hard working impact edge guy might get some time off too.

I only need HSS to score 85 to tie with you

I traded him in so I can assure you he will be lucky to score the 5 out of 85

Every time I own Turbo he is shit, (bought him after his massive price drop last year), every time I don't own him he goes massive (didnt have him in 2021).

Last season I got a 23 then 33 and season ending injury.

He looked like shit Turbo in game 1, lasted about 60 minutes. Looking like 2021 Turbo now and probably bring him in, while obviously missing Walsh.

I had him in both 21 and 22. 22 was just unlucky, can't do much about that. You can say he's injury prone, but if diving for a ball and have someone land on you, everyone is injury prone.

I don't know what game you were watching in rd1, but he looked dangerous as fuck to me. Got a rest because of a blow out and was effectively his trial so no point leaving him out there. Kiraz hopefully goes okay, but over 600k for a winger is the low % play. Hope it pays off.
