Looks like a few solid <350k options next week

Volkman (TMM fractured leg), Couchman, Royce Hunt (may be beneficiary of Finucane/Rudolf out), Soni Luke (if he maintains bigger min role), Sele

Yeah, may need to refresh the EMG bench a bit, Couchman and Luke are appealing

Hoping Foran is back next to Boyd this week. He will do at HOK for now if that’s the case. 

Don’t really want to be spending there this week

I’m chasing about 115 from Carty and Uto..
Also have Hopgood in play but he’s common currently.

I’ve got options with a 53 at 18 and 2 trades but it might be a bridge too far.

Matterson might be good for 60 which with the 53 might get me home.
Not sure I can rely on Carty or Uto to get 50 but I could also dump Hopgood in the hope he goes low for my opponent.

Too many options.

You could give a detailed list of if/then instructions to a trusted forum member or friend??

Molo 2 game suspension (3 if challenging), time to hide behind the Couchman

Keep this up Pookus and I will bring you in to my Fantasy Fantasy team to watch your scores plummet... Looks like a good week for the McFlys

Wouldn’t recommend it. Playing from L1, I’m not even on my radar in my own fantasy fantasy side.

*points sadly at Turbo*

I spent my Haynes Bank to upgrade HSS to Turbo this week. Gained myself a nice 3 points over playing Warbrick in the 17!!! Carnage all over the place this week.

Probably need to send it to my friend Crystal.

The uncertainty around the eels rotation makes it pretty impossible.

What are the chances Arrow comes back to play mid? Seriously am looking at Host

Apologies for the confusion, if this was intended to be a response to my post.

Turns out the Fishing charter has been postponed/cancelled and I found out 2 mins after I posted on here.

Thanks for the tip

High? Arrow probably doesn't make origin this year, but also assume he will be needed to play mid with that bunnies pack.

Yeah my thoughts too, can’t see him making origin but also probably just a mid that can cover the second row

This was the week where cheap WFBs went to die and basically all the gun WFBs smashed it

Yep. That Turbo (16) was a cheap WFB dying alright.

Likely approximate minutes spread for the Eels this week

Campbell Gillard 60
Hodgson 50
Grieg 30
Cartwright 80
Lane 80
Matterson 60
Hopgood 60
Hands 30
Makatoa 20
Murchie 10

Main takeaway Hopgood and Carty will score more than well enough. No need for knotting knickers

Should have played Boyd over L.Smith.

Round-a-bouts keep on turning.

My bench was Dfifi, EKatoa, Hopgood then I picked Ford

Bloody hell, that's a stacked bench.
No wonder my bludgers are just bludgerising it up each week.

Wasn't carty the initial back up? Only got promoted to the 80 due to injuries? Fantasy wise he has been solid but IRL he has had moments, but kind of underwhelming.

As for Hopgood, yeah, this week he is okay and will be interesting how he is used next week - guessing 30?

WFB and Kenny letting me down

Seems to be first sub on for the forwards then relieves BMM on the edge. Good prospect if that continues

He's def on my watchlist.
The Dragons are still running a huuge / power forward pack. Hook's gameplan seems to be bash-em-up and run over them.
Limited minutes due to aerobic fitness levels.
Couchman is that wiry fit forward type of body who can pump out big minutes.

Maybe, but I'm playing E.Katoa, Ford & Hopgood in my starting 13.
