He was never really a sell but most of us overreacted

He was a sell when shedding money before RCG got injured and Matto got ill. Now Matto's back but RCG isn't, I'd say he's a hold and edging towards a buy.

Yeah a bit conflicted since I was in the sell camp.

504/8C only real disappointments being in myself for giving Staggs another chance. Bought in NAS as well which hasn't worked out but liked the trade.

I'd set up a loop where I get a look at Bula, and can loop in Drinkwater if need be, and play Cheese at 17.
But if Cheese is out, I get Alamoti's 20.

Or I play Bula straight up in the 13, and then decide between Cheese and Water for the Roosters game.

Bit of a conundrum, but leaning towards the latter (as so many playing Bula anyway)

Talking about NAS, I was only half watching the game, did he play the hybrid role - edge on attack?

Is JDB still a good buy given his move to prop?

I’ve got Uto that needs to be moved along.

@easytiger I will take option 1. Cheese would have dropped off by now if he wasn't fit to play.

A bit. He'd go to left edge and Loiero would go to middle sometimes. But NAS also attacked in the middle some sets.

@Syzy if you aren't buying him for the last 3; game average you should be fine.

I’d be hoping he averages 55 still.
Even at 60min that should be doable.

I'd expect more like 50 average if he is playing 60min moving forward. Which is still ok.

I grabbed him last week and must say I'm not thrilled that Bird is back at lock, JDB doesn't need to play 80 with Bird back in the middle.

707 (C) / 11

Fifita, Manu, Teddy, Cheese, Bird and Bula to come.

Bring on day 3!

I would think so too. Robbo is always pretty on the money with cutting players the day before if they are not lining up.

Luki said he isn't playing more than 25min

Any for this other then Mulvys deluded dementia riddled ramblings?

Had a good week so far thanks to being on the right side of (C)leary vs Ni(C)ho this week

Feels good after a few rank drops to go the other way again but only 5 left today on 779/12C

Only real shocker for the week is EKatoa sack whacking me for being patient with him. Seem to get it wrong regularly with who I hold and who I let go. Held katoa but dropped Boyd early for example

Good luck to everyone today, especially the stragglers
