Goddamit.

I'm tossing up trading out Crossland or Alamoti. This thread is constantly persuading me that both are utterly invaluable.

Right! More wild turkeys required. That'll be sure to help the decision making.

That would be just lovely

If that is true does Finefeuiaki become an option?

Was thinking something like Preston/Loiero to Luki and IKatoa to Oloapu might be on the table next week

Would free up enough money to do Host to Bateman post R13 (and still not enough money for Hynes )

Yeah I’m dumping Preston this week, Loiero could well be a R16 hold if he keeps playing well though

Wow that’s a month earlier than what they had him penciled in for, as an unfortunate Alamoti owner this is good news.

Gould has tweeted that Kiraz is training and "may now be in".

Yep, reckon he was just messing with the media.

Warbrick > Bula
Tino > Matterson
Preston > Lane

No matter what options I come up with I’m never completely happy with it. Tough week

Payten suggests that Luki is gonna play a big chunk of the game. I guess that means a 15-20 minute stint for Finefeuiaki and 60-65 minutes for Luki?

Bloody hope not! I was thinking luki gets 60 mins

Personally prefer Tatola over Luki but if you can give it a week and have a look at them both before making a decision then I'd say do that.

Yep, the good thing about luki is that in non injury games he hasn't needed huge minutes to average 47 as starting EDG.

Martin Lang at dummy-half.

"And now [bloke] plays the ball to Lang at hooker, who picks it up and runs 10metres. Again. That's the third time this set and Penrith have once again failed to kick on the fifth"

MattNZ at coach

Which player playing in the most out-of-position position do you think would give the most surprising performance?

Latrell cosplaying as Adam Blair is probably a rep quality prop. 4-5 runs a game, filthy stuff in every tackle and "intangibles"

Wasnt there a game for the Broncos that Blair didn’t take a single run?

I'm high on Luki but I think waiting a week is fine. By the time Cows play the field will be a mess. Coming back from a leg injury......I just think even if he gets a 50, it's worth bring cautious on this one.

Olo starting from the bench again not ideal. Anyone still pulling the trigger?

Thing is, Latrell probably could play prop and be effective in short stints. Payne Haas could be a Talakai++ at centre. These things would be far less out-there than, for example, Jake Granville at prop.

Just ask ChatGTP to cobble something together from their forum posts (except maybe if @Rev wins it)

I might.

I need someone cheap (i think?), probably should actually look at trades
