Agree, Cowboys area decent team, Knights aren't lol

When I traded Kris in this week, I briefly considered using my bank and getting Bradman Beast instead. That would have been nice

To be fair, I briefly considered about 10 different players. Odds were good at least one of them would do well

You still not booing?

No. Booing my own team is just not in my DNA.
I would be disappointed, I would be angry and frustrated but I wouldn't be booing the players.

Was thinking I might need to make room for Ponga, but it's looking like Best will slide in.

He has a white safety helmet.

Ponga has a blue/red one.


Lol

Haha, I'm completely wrong there. To be fair, I stopped concentrating some time ago. Keeping my fire going and have a chicken roasting away.

Maybe, but at what point is it not the coaches fault and indicative of a deeper organisational malaise? Because first it was Des' fault, then Pay, then Barrett, now Ciraldo, and none of that has fixed anything.

Just don't think continuously firing coaches with addressing the myriad other issues is gonna get them anywhere.

Surely Mr. Subpodgun brings Best in next week and tells us how he’s been on the radar for 4 weeks, has amazing attacking stats and has a hybrid role as a centre/edge player

It's probably been mentioned. But I figured out what has been going on with the scoring. The android app appears to have the correct score. The desktop appears to be counting only the starting 13 players and not counting the bench. Coding not updated from rd16 maybe.

Need trades for that.

He moved Alamoti to the right to defend on the same edge as Okunbor and Rajab. Defending against Pongas go to side. Seemed like a recipe for disaster

Now that NButcher is playing should I swap Turps with him?

I would

Do you really need to keep insulting a guy after banning him for reacting to the constant insults he receives

Crossy! Had no way to trade him....keeper material

Oh the irony.

He brings it in himself .....some would say.

I was shocked when I heard the comms say he is only 21 how good will he get?

Don’t get me wrong, he’s far from the only problem, but his management of his players is a fasttrack to team full of players with no confidence

NRL has gone from “closest comp ever” to “code in crisis” in 12 hrs with these blowouts
