They lost Josh McGuire and Tariq Sims.
But they gained Couchman (who everyone thought was due for big minutes 4 days ago)

By "everyone" you mean some people who talked themselves into believing it because they were desperate for a cheap option based on one performance right?

It's not like JDB has no fantasy pedigree.

They lost two players who have played rep footy in the past and replaced them with some nobody that a bunch of fantasy players frothed over because he played 50 minutes one week and was cheap.

Very interested in him, but was the Sua injury why he played 80?  

Su'a still played 74 minutes and Bird and JDB played 80

Cheers Chewie.  Laid up with a broken ankle atm.  Straight after recovering from a herniated disc last month; infected tear duct in Feb; and bacterial Tonsillitis from an Uber driver New Years Eve

Thank God the Tigers are going so well and my Fantasy team is killing it this year...

That is some terribly bad luck, and I’m only referring to being a Tigers fan.
Good to have you back.

Having my worst year at work KPI wise in 23 years as well; just bad luck, not related to my down time being sick/injured.

Happy Birthday for last Sunday mate

Just Simonsson, who's back from suspension and in reserves

Simonsson is who he replaced, but is ahead of now presumably. Lumelume another that played wing Rd 1.

Waqa Blake back in to CTR and Russell to wing another possibility.

Having a little play around tonight

Robson
Haas Mcinnes Ford
Hosking Host
Hynes Cleary
Bird Lemuelu
Tedesco Miller Tabuai-Fidow

Moses Johnson Preston BSmith
IKatoa Alamoti Nikorima Skelton/Dunster

Oh yeah, Simonssen. Hmmm... Toying with;

Warbrick - Dunster
Carty - Fifita

No interest in JDB or Manu flavours from TLT?

Manu yes and the last 5 minutes, JDB, yes.

Can get either for Carty with a single trade too.

Who to play this weekend? Perham or Warbrick?

At the moment I'm leaning JDB over Manu. Manu still has a huge BE and maybe safe to wait a week to see if he's still 5/8 next week? Idk

I’m in the same boat. Unless I trade Perham to Manu and then it’s Warbrick or Alamoti

If Manu's getting a big score at 5/8, it's this week. The Dragons are terrible and he put 100 on them last year, so either get on now or don't bother.

Don't buy guys after they had a big score, buy the guy you think will get the next big score.

Manu has hit that number 3 out of 4 times playing in the halves

Maybe I'll just get both and dump Preston. Yolo

You'll be happy to know I've been revisiting my Fugazi albums.

Sitting in a waiting room?

 amazing!

Bought this random album below by "Soilent Green" off Discogs a couple of weeks ago by the way.  Had never heard them before and figure they spelt it this way to not be sued.
A little too thrashy for me on first listen but will give it a couple of more cracks. 

Didn't want to make 3 trades this week but this looks pretty appealing

Carty to JDB
Warbrick to Host
Alamoti to Manu

Concern though is that ideally I would like to see what happens with Lemuelu when both KBrom and Kaufusi are in the team, which we wont see until next week. Would regret dumping Alamoti instead if Null loses his spot the next week. So maybe Manu will need to wait.

got 50k in the bank.

Is it worth going Alomoti Warbrick to Manu Dusnter if it means I need to play one of ITT Dunster TT (would be ITT) in my 17?

I could instead trade ITT and keep Warbrick but then I have Warbrick with the bye next week.

H2H player so just building the best team I can for finals.

alternative is something crazy like Carrigan Warbrick to Yeo Dunster and then playing ITT/Dunster/TT
to start building my finals team. Broncos are the prelim final so Yeo better (long long way away)

or the boring but ever sensible no trade.

Hope the Uber driver was worth it

I think the broken ankle is from a lovers tiff

Bloke coughed and spluttered for the whole 50 minute trip home.  GF was sitting in the back and no-one else from the night was sick before or after so I'm blaming him, even though I would like to clarify there was NO physical contact between us (admittedly there was a strong emotional connection though... )
