    I’m not sure what happened last weekend but I’ve now got both Couchman and BMM in my side! Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse.

    I’m hoping BMM’s week in ressies has turned him into something more useful than a red dot.

    According to the internet, BMM played 80 in reserves. Also the other twin Couchman played 50 mins off the interchange. 

    Seems like a clear sign that BMM is an 80 min player now and the first twin Couchman will play substantial bench minutes too

    I'm going to wait a week and either get lucky with a good score from one whomever I decide to play out of Stone/AKP/Couchman or just take the points hit/potential value drop from trade outs.

    ITT, Cartwright on the chopping block.

    I still cant believe Eli Katoa is yet to dot down.
    The guy scored 6 tries in his first season (13 games) and scored 4 in his 40 games since.

    Not a bad shout actually. I can put Carty in the loop. Even from the bench should go close to his BE. If he jags some junk keep, otherwise try IKatoa/Kodi/Brick

    BMM's PPM is so shit that I don't think even 80 minutes would save him. He's also on the edge that I think the Roosters will attack more (the edge of Amone, BMM, Lomax and Feagai, all of whom are suspect in defence at best) so playing 80 just gives him more opportunity to miss tackles.

    Your degree probably translates well to fantasy decisions too.

    I also reckon economic policy is close enough for the numerous forum accountants to let you into their sought after and highly exclusive club

    Su'a on the right and Bird on the left seems to be their best option for their edges.
    I wouldn't be holding BMM with the expectation that he hangs around.

    They probably share 80 on an EDG this week.

    Thinking about taking a punt on Api this week. Need a hooker to cover grant next week, and Api should step up without Doueihi. I dont think he plays origin this year so should be good over the bye rounds. And as long as Tigers want a Fullback and Centre on the bench ahead of Jake Simpkin, 80 is all but guarenteed. Thoughts?

    Go with your guts I say... (and have a look at the Dragons bench)

    1 Thing to note, Dragons fucked up there interchanges last week by starting Mbye. So they only had 7 for the game. With the extra interchange you probably JDB -> Couchman towards the end of the first half, like JDB has done pretty much his whole career.

    They actually had 8 interchanges...the losing 1 interchange thing was BS. They just breached the NRL team naming rules with the penalty yet to be decided.

    Yeah - I mentioned it the other day, but they still made 8 'in-game' interchanges, so i guess the whole "losing an interchange" wasn't a thing.

    They still used 2 interchanges on Couch.

    If the talk is now that Manu might keep the spot long-term (whether or not that's just wishful fantasy thinking), then I think I'll probably just wait a week.

    BE of 56 means his price shouldn't get out of hand (watch him score 110 now), and I'll take the chance to see how the Roosters look IRL with him in that role. If he looks great and like he'll keep the spot, then it's still an easy trade next week when EKat is on the bye.

    I'll get him vs trash Dragons or not at all. Official BE is 64 just seen. That's rough

    For rounds 14, 17 and 20 do we still need to field 17 despite 3 teams having byes?

    I was joking

    He scored 34 in NSW Cup in that 80

    Edit: lol how is Lomax suspect in defence? The other three maybe but I can’t think of a time Lomax has been done over by a rival attacking side and that’s with Rava or rookies like Feagai outside him.

    Yes

    I think some people are going to be so focussed on R13/16/19 they play short some of those following weeks and/or burn more trades than planned

    the 'talk' is literally fantasy players wanting it to happen.

    Even if it is just a couple weeks, Hes not a bad pick up now considering he will play fullback for most of the origin period.

    You just might have to put up with a few 20 scores between rounds 10-13
