If anyone can get it exactly right with a prediction posted before kickoff, you can have my avatar for a week. Two people pick the same winning score, it’s first in best dressed.

In an attempt to defend my avatar, I’ll kick off the predictions with 79

99

106, because without Burton this will be a slaughter

Feeling sorry for myself as I tuck into a zinger box after a big night at family members wedding.

Haven't seen anyone trade in Nikora this week.

Locking in Bird -> Nikora trade to spice up this evening.

No logic - just pure vibes.

Will you have enough players next week? I traded out Nikora this week for this very reason. I had too many EDGs and not enough MIDs

Hynes to pack a sook and cruise.

I looked at Hands + Bateman/Nikora v Simpkin + Matterson

I think if there’d been something more definitive around Hodgson, would’ve gone the former with Nikora. Don’t think his base is high as Bateman but difference maybe not as big as people think, is cheaper, and may score tries for fun outside Hynes for the rest of the season

Long way of saying I like the vibes

Someone else suggested they were going to go Nikora at about R14 then has ended up with iPap and Bateman because I guess it’s not all fun and vibes and there might be a tonne of deliberate planning involved too.

I assume all of you who are choosing relatively low even numbers just want a double dip at Rob's avatar


Nicho for 209

So I only made one semi-drunken trade yesterday and hopefully it works out:

Reversed Stone ---> NAS
made Edwards ---> NAS

Did I do good?

Hynes: 77

92 Beans

Hynes 66

9/578 this week, going well. Up 600 ranks. Hynes (c), Preston and Alamoti to come.

Lateness of the HEdwards news was a bit of a pain. My Nikorima and Liddle trades had already locked out, so ended up holding Tatola instead.

I think makes sense. NAS score not the best but don’t see much point holding Edwards when he misses 16/17

Hynes 68 (so close, yet so far)

Any filthy loopers taking a chance on Olo over Crossland? 40+ was an easy answer. 39 is annoying

17.

Sent off. Classic old school coat hanger, straight out of the textbook. 8 weeks. It’s always the ‘nice’ ones that surprise.

Bummer, did the same injury myself many years ago (also left side) and it stings a bit. Up for a header and got your legs taken out or bumped as you were having a shot?

Get well soon!

Best of luck with the recovery

Crikey Chewie. I thought the Wookie's go was to rip their opponents' arms off, not do their own ACL.
Hope you recover quickly and without too much pain.

Thanks for the love lads, not in too much pain, mainly frustrated being limited in what I can do for the next period of time

Hunt requested a release from Dragons, which they denied.

How shit must that dressing room feel right now? Fortunately Flanners'll have a pocket full of uppers to help out.

Hynes 91 I think

Really? 91? You sure mate? Lock it in?

Flanagan starts HB instead of DJ Khaled in the only change since the cut for Sharks and Dogs. Morrin LK and Pele INT.
