If Gutho is picked then that is pretty funny
I used my last trade on TBoyd as an 18th man trying to cover one of Johnson/Cook/Hynes this week
Can cover Horsburgh with JDB/Matterson/Hopgood but even thats not safe haha

Is what it is, losing Moses,cook,robson in one hit set the cards up to fall but will see what happens

I don't know whats more fun, guessing the fittler selections or trying to make a team around it haha

Does that mean Ted out?

I'm assuming he's playing centre so Ted still there.

Hearing Luai out, Walker 6 (LOL)

Maybe Gutho bench? Or 18th?

Probably further delayed because Fittler is just getting around to watching Sea Eagles vs Roosters highlights and he realised Burbo scored a try.

Oh yeah of course............I literally would never have clicked he'd put him at centre.

Probably thinks if he puts Burbo next to Jurbo it will be a genius move.

I think Gutho stepped a journalist in the hallway after the game and it was posted to tiktok so thats what got him across the line

Fucking hell dropped from 98th to 101st

Last 3 weeks - 105, 104, 101. Last 2 been top 100 until shop opens. NRL fantasy trolling harder than Fittler at the selection table.

Might do Cook to Nikora

not playing this week in H2H so dont need to trade but thinking of dumping Bula. Has been great and made lots of cash but Tigers look terrible and he is a young FB on a bad team.

Will start to bleed cash.

Have Edwards Ponga Teddy who arent great but I dont really want to be wasting a spot in my 17 on a WFB when you can jump to Halves/Mid for not much more in the 17.

Have Kris C/WFB on the bench anyway in case of injury/bye

Just short of Bula to Munster so might just go Bula to cash out and be ready to jump on Cleary.

Being picked for Origin stills means something important....

Ponga's not interested either. The Freddie effect knows no borders.

Need 2 WFBs. Was gonna go CNK but might go Val Meninga and maybe even a Mulitalo or Kennedy against the Tigers. Trade out options is the harder part. Probably has to be Robson.

I'm also going to be 2 WFBs short but think I'll only get one (probably for JFH). Would like CNK but VTW's dual might prove useful at some stage and obviously way cheaper. Still risk about a Brenko return but you'd think he's won the spot now.

It's really hard to like Freddy right now.

Why would you go back to Walker? Why not blood Hynes properly?

Why not give Drinky/Gutho a proper shot.

Throwing together a team of has beens and never will be for what?

So frustrating.

Yeah, just going one short and keeping Robson is probably the smart play but with 5 trades, no reason to not get a full squad I guess.

I think VTW stays in the squad from now on.

Could try him at #6 yeah, but Cleary will be the #7 next year so I guess it's a case of "What's the point" kinda thing?

You've got a reasonable buffer points wise, I think you should be ok, even with a player less

You are assuming they persist with Luai.

I think the precedent to preserve that combination has well and truly been overruled.
