Manly injury report:
Josh Aloiai suffered a dislocated shoulder in round 11 against Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks. He is expected to be out for between 3-6 weeks.

Kelma Tuilagi will undergo surgery for a facial fracture suffered against the Sharks. He is expected to be out for 6 weeks.

Aaron Woods suffered a fractured thumb against the Sharks and will be out for 4-6 weeks.

DCE used to play Supercoach

Corey Parker and Paul Gallen, amongst others were at the least aware of their stats whilst playing

I imagine every NRL player gets bored very very quickly with fans asking them about their role/minutes to help with Supercoach


Once, many years ago, I got called by Mitch Aubusson in person as part of a Roosters recruitment drive. I did ask him what position he'd play that year, and immediately felt bad about it
(think he just said "wherever coach plays me" or something similar)

Bryce Cartwright has been subbed off zero (0) times this year

Every time he has started he has played the entire game

Every time he's been on the bench he's been subbed on after ~30 minutes and then played out the game

The chance of him starting, and then sharing game time  is not 0% but its pretty low and I would not bet on it happening

Yeah I agree, hence why I think the most likely scenario is that Carty is named on the bench and Matto starts on the left edge, then moves into the middle and Carty comes on to play out the game on the left edge.

Wow that’s some carnage.

Looks like Lawton or Burbo might be on the menu

Yeah, I remember watching guys like Parker and Gallen and always thought these guys must own themselves.

Lawton or Burbo either will suit me nicely.

Sharks have 2 byes in the next 6 weeks.

Is it really worth trading someone in for ~4 scores. Williams is an OK scorer, but some people just seem to act like they have unlimited trades bringing in all these medium term adequate scorers.

Manly edge is a similar situation, although at least Burbo is min price if he is named to start (although note his true price is under $220k so he has to get a couple of decent scores to start making cash)

Petition for Warriors Team Lists to go back to coming out an hour early.

Or us QLDers go back to getting them an hour early.

I'm sure that if it was up to McInnes he would suit up and take the field this round

If Lawton gets the edge spot then he's a great buy, he averages 50.4 in starting edge games in which he played big minutes (removed his sendoff game and a game where he got 26 in 38 mins).

He only really needs to average 35-40 to be worth having given how cheap he is (303k BE 27)

Now I look at it again - if Burbo gets the edge spot i'll likely bring him in. Brought VTV in last week for the same reason - cheap as chips and easier to make cash from such a low price. I'm chuffed with my ranking but my team value is pretty crap so hoping these guys help.

Some guys are just at the right place at the right time. Hazelton was only supposed to get a couple of games? now up to 6

If Burbo gets the edge spot I am very tempted, not least because he has CTR dual and I would be able to just trade Russell to him, and not need to make a second trade this week (I would also get 115k out of a dead cheapie and into the bank where I need it)
