You legit not getting him?
Shit, I don't have a clue which way is up right now, my team feels like it's gone from solid-as to beached-as
Here are my problems;
Robbo - jumped on too early, but it is what it is, Origin call-up would put an exclamation on a bad early get
Ford - I was looking at him as a luxury trade-up prior to the HIA, now he's suddenly my only R13 edge
Lane - basically dead for the next 2 months
Manu - Minor injury. The Roosters are genuinely the worst team in the comp right now if you compare their performance to expected performance going into the season.
I have a lot of time for Trent Robinson, it will be interesting to watch how he steers this ship around.
Tedesco - someone needs to inject him with a vial of unicorn blood so that he can get a bit of power and energy back into his game. I'm no coach, but if I were TR part of my change would centre around getting Teddy involvements up. I wonder if the burden of Captaincy is distracting him in a weird way, and he just needs to focus on his own game.
Miller - Ponga killed him, has gained $170k but also lost $90k. Too close to R13 to sell, just a bit of an irritation
Hosking - Who knows what coach Cleary has planned for his edges each week. If he's playing 80 edge minutes, he's a keeper, but it's always going to be an IF...
Brandon Smith - Another Rooster struggling to find his game in a team struggling to find their game, and keeps picking up little injuries.
Drinkwater - He's a roulette table for scoring - No one to blame here, but when his team scores 40+ points, you'd normally hope he gets amongst it
Probably my biggest problem overall are the headaches of not owning Hynes, Fifita, Haas, (Hopgood, Horsburgh, Walsh etc), some weeks it's going to hurt
At the moment I'm probably not heading down the Luki path, but love him as a player and can well-imagine that at some point in the future he could be an elite fantasy edge. I'll have a look when I figure out what my plan is for the next 2 rounds
