Someone posted a theory about how Bellamy was so pissed of at the performance that he dragged his captain. NFI if that has any merit.

If this is true would hate to see the reaction if they loose to the tigers might end up in retirement early haha

Don't do it. More chance than anything you end up playing centre roulette and this is how it starts.
This happens every year. Upgrade centres after you've upgraded everywhere else.

If you have Alamoti/a gun and literally any green dot then just leave those two there and don't look at that position.

PM Filth and he’ll help you get through this

I don't have any centre cover. Bringing in Null*Null and moving HSS to reserves is appealing indeed.

If cash was no issue I take Reynolds every day, but that extra 100k..... Its a tough one.

Anyone going a different direction at HLF that isnt Cleary or Hynes?

I'm gonna go SJ for value, but was seriously considering Moses. He's running the ball this year, and Brown isn't kicking *at all*.

Original kind of plan was to go Doueihi to Moses before Wests bye when Parra schedule eases up (I know some on here don't like looking at match-ups but you can't ignore them with flat-track Mitch). Doueihi ruined that plan by stinking too much too soon.

Long-run I think Moses outscores both SJ and ARey, but it's not the play for me right now.

Doorey
Katoa
Akp
Warbrick
Hss

Who to play ? ( Egan ruled out messed up my plan to upgrade one of them so this shit storms only for one week haha )

Surely there's a loop in there? In a vacuum.... Warbrick or HSS. Lean towards Warbrick.

gun team, you happy with the centres?

with 200k and the amount of wfb you have already then you don't need AKP and warbrick, so I'd get someon else in. actually think for 400k ish there are few decent options.

Thanks mate. Not over the moon with centers but recent scores see them making decent cash hope they peak as the guns hit there lows and are straight swaps at the right time. Oh shit that was a stupid question when you put it like that guess I'll upgrade akp thanks.

This week I'll likely be running out SJ and Boyd. I'd like Cleary or Hynes soon....maybe one will drop in cash.

Really wanted SJ this week but dont have the cash to go Eutcher -> SJ straight up and with no cheapy options to downgrade HSS or Warbrick, Im thinking of going Eutcher -> Lemuelu and just play lemuelu at 2nd row or HTF at WFB. What we think?

Surely Cleary will be his be must be big this week and eels should contain his score on paper

Any Cleary holders gonna double down and throw the ( c ) on him? half tempted to but think tohus probably the safer option

Cleary had a bad score against the Eels in the regular season last year, with a 1. Unlikely to happen again. In the finals he scored 66 and 93.

Yessir, have a gut feel hes gonna hit his breakeven too and lose no money

Have done NAS to Koala and EButcher to Koro.

Or should I have focused on Halves, with having to play Boyd next to DCE ?

Koro
Ford Hopgood Sutton
Ekatoa Koala
DCE Boyd
Holmes Penis
Mitchell Too CNK

Walsh Carty Alamoti Preston
Doorey Collins Warbrick Trindy

I don't see anything wrong with playing Boyd and DCE this week. Probably two more backs on your interchange than I'd prefer, but Collins back next week.

Wait I see the problem. Boyd on a bye next week really stretches the halves friendship. Could leave you short if you have other fires. Probably manageable if you're sitting on some cash? I'm looking at similar with SJ and Boyd in halves, hopefully 477k allows me to fix half and hooker soon.

As far as the trade-ins go, not my cuppa tea, but I'd never talk revs out of gut picks.

Hynes is averaging 82 over his last 3 games against the Dragons.

Night all.

Pretty sure all Cleary holders will be captaining him.

So youre saying the Carty Party will contain Cleary.

Weve come a long way in a few weeks

Nope I'm saying the hop God may have taken some of the chin gods power hence the slump in Clearys scores this year and maybe for years the Carty party was a forum myth but it's alive and kicking this year haha. And for all the jokes and heart break God dam the party feels good.

Injury mate

If he's fit, reckon we see AD back into halves, Wakeham bench and Laurie 1

This isn't cooked enough for a Tim Sheens team

I can see it now: Doueihi 1, Wakeham 6, Laurie 7, Brooks 9, Koro ends up on the bench. Tigers pull off a stunning set play, length of the field effort, Nofo finishes it off under the sticks. Storm 66 Tigers 4

Hmm. If you were considering trading in E Katoa, would this give you any pause?

Mmmm, nah only 23k itb after those two. But obviously not locked in. Have 248k itb prior to trades, so alot of options. Could get Reyno instead of Koala.
Could dump Butcher to Null squared and NAS to Hynes or Cleary.

Not sure. Want Koala, and Turbo.. wish Turbo was a half haha !

Very undecided this week.

New plan is to play pretty straight bat and go Egan+Doueihi -> Johnson+Turbo

Boyd
Tapine Carrigan Hopgood
Katoa Fifita
(C)leary SJ
Staggs Alamoti
Turbo Miller HTF

Carty Ford Preston TMM
HSS Warbrick Doorey Trindall

300k itb next week for maybe Trindall or Doorey to Brailey because I won't have a hooker with Boyd out. Give HSS and Warbrick (against the Tigers surely) one more week to try get their prices moving and then will be looking to cut the chaff as well.

Egan's done well but can't see him scoring a try every week and the number of head knocks he cops are pretty worrying with the new stand down rules.
