    Few different team set-up questions this week:

    a) Starting half: IKat vs Nikorima
    b) Starting WFB: Teddy vs Bula
    c) Loop two, leave one out: Whichever two don't start from the above + Hedwards

    Who ya got?

    Currently starting Katoa and Bula, looping Teddy and Hedwards and leaving out Nikorima.

    Sucks that my back-up CTR is injured and my back-up EDG is on bye, means Hosking has to go for a EDG or not at all, not really any out there that play next week that don’t have question marks now, so I might have to cop the money loss, hold him until I have a better idea on which one to swap him out for next week and hope he’s fired up for the ‘revenge’ game

    Interesting everyone so keen to play Bula over Teddy

    In the last 4 weeks Bula has scored 159 fantasy points, Teddy has scored 158
    One of them has a much stronger fantasy history than the other

    I also doubt that the Dragons are going to put 48 points on the Roosters like the Panthers just did.

    Teddy may be down on his best and backing up off a low score, but I don't think we should overreact

    Teddy is going to do what Ponga did last week. Origin nearly here, and a bit of chatter about his form (somewhat? actually I don't know.. maybe people are talking about? are they?).

    Teddy > Bula for me, no brainer

    I’m getting spooked on Luki though, really need and alternative MID or EDG option that definitely plays 13

    They are? I must have missed all this chatter.

    FWIW, I'm playing both.

    Yeah, I've gone cold on him too, even before the Lucy news.

    The Joe O news has me a bit spooked trading Hopgood in...

    Reckon it makes much of a difference, or does he just steal Greig's 30-odd mins?

    I am a bit concerned that`s way too much money to have in the bank this week.

    Tino to Edwards builds most of my bank this week and I’m guessing I’ll be down 10 points from it

    Probably some minor concern but then again Paulo will be in Origin in 13, 16, 19

    As a Hopgood owner desperate not to sell him twice in a season, my hope is it reduces Hopgoods minutes but it's the 10-15 shit ones he plays when he's out on his feet. So minimal fantasy score impact

    Yeah I saw the Joe O news and I was like "they better not ruin my boy!"

    I would think that he'll just slot into Paulo's role for the Origin period, but it could be a problem later in the year

    Also spooked by Luki, might go Tatola and JDB rather than Luki and Tapine and hope Tatola doesn’t get named for Origin

    Tatola won't get named for Origin, Freddy will just name a bunch of edge forwards on the bench.

    Jurbo being back this week helps him too.

    My guess for NSW's forward pack:

    8. Jurbo
    9. Api
    10. Haas
    11. Murray
    12. H Young
    13. Yeo
    14. Cook
    15. Olakau'atu
    16. Paulo
    17. wildcard

    That wildcard spot will be a really dumb pick, in the mould of Talakai or Critta.

    I guess the other question if that happens is whether Joe O is worth looking at?

    He's nice and cheap at 469k (dropped over 300k so far this year) and we know he's a gun if he gets the minutes.
