I asked Hopgood to dare dream of an 85, and he has delivered!

Not many options. Maybe Sutton with Ming injury

He’s $450k

All things considered 46 and 39 from Frizell and Miller is good

Damn 2nd game in a row with me only having players in the side getting smashed.

Would've been great when I had 3 Eels but have sold them all since lol, congrats to all holders reaping their rewards.

As a long-suffering Knights fan, I concur.
Ponga is like the Wally Lewis of the 21st century - guns it for Origin, but average at NRL club level.
He needs a gun half (DCE & Munster in Origin) to take pressure off him and allow him to have the space for his running game to be useful.
Newcastle should never have thrown the amount of $ at him they did.

We need a top-tier half & fullback.
Miller is fun to watch, but isn't up to the level required.
Hastings is a fighter, but needs more from his 5/8.

It's just more proof that the "also ran" teams have no hope in the current climate and we'll end with a "Big 6" who dominate every year.
Not sure how to solve it, but the NRL needs to be thinking about evening up the talent etc.

Ponga +/- result still in the balance.

Moses with the drop goal for the banner!

Ah so he is

Yeah Afoa or Ale then I guess. Maybe Flegler...?

Leniu maybe.

Moses knew a banner was on offer with the field goal.

Moses!

Cant wait for the 100 posts asking is Hopgood a buy

Moses banner

Could take a punt on Afoa with warriors injuries

Edit how long does Peachey get at ctr? Hes still got mid DPP

Nrl casualty ward says tago is indefinite? Is there anything more concrete? Peachey at ctr for a decent period could make (warning, wild prediction) 150k+ bouncing around in the best team in the comp

If Matterson plays Origin he will be.

Playing Hoppy is tempered by the fact I played Crossland. Now I’ve got Host coming up

Well, Mitch got the banner (instead of Hynes). The gauntlet has well and truly been laid down for Cleary now.

Moses 8.7% ownership helps
