CLaw with 40. Wow if he hadn't have dropped those dumb balls and not been an idiot with that lifting tackle he'd have gotten close to 50.

Nah he's just been serving his latest suspension. He is due back in 2018...

Sorry, but it is one of my pet hates, and I know the bloke.

Fair enough but I thought you would have at least spelt Michael right then

Fuck.
Touché.

Climbed 2k in rankings, still have 6 players to go, including Fifita (c)

And still have an available trade to use for this round (possibly LAM - Taupau)

Possible swaps for Merrin:
JTrbo
Tolman
Taupau
Ma'u (who I am seriously considering for the cash grab, and good bye schedule

Cheers MF. My reactions to that news...

Rochow 46 -- Yes!! I'll take that.
Mataora 54 --- Get In, I'm a fantasy god!!!




Croker 26 --- Never mind I'm a dud, time to scrap the season and start over.

considering what Merrin scored last week, I'll gladly take the 38 from Taylor in his place. Taia is gunna have to go, prolly for Ma'u... & someone's gotta go for Martin between Hastings & DCE

I think Croker (I have him too) is suffering from having Williams outside of him. Once Sezer comes back im certain he'll do better. He is just getting no ball but he isn't running as much hes made like 110m from 3 games.. That is pretty poor for a centre. Especially one of his quality. Either way im keeping him all year

Hah yeah I'm just being over dramatic. I picked Croker as a long term keeper because I was sick of fucking about in that Area. I was hoping he would score 30-40 for the next week or 2 until Sezer came back. Once he is I think he'll go much better not only will he get better ball as you say but he doesn't mind a meat pie from kicks and Sezer has a fantastic short kicking game.

He's not that far off what I was expecting this week, especially given how poorly we were for a large chunk of the game. I guess most of my disappointment comes down to the game itself and my hope that we would blow them off the park with Croker having a big game (he had a very average game if I'm being honest). Could have been worse.

Copping Eden's 16 as Merrin's AE. That hurts.

Did Vaughan change at all in the updates btw? I'll take any improvement on that score, just not getting the minutes I'd hoped . I want to hold out until it cools down and see his minutes then, but I'm not sure I've got the patience. Plus Tapine looked ok and him getting a look in now might be Ricky showing his hand a little. Makes that pack even more crowded...

Vaughn is now on 35 I don't know what he was before. Tapine is on 37

I'm surprised Tapine didn't play centre this week. The second I heard he was playing my first thought of him in for Brenko

Cheers mate. 5 point update I'll take that. Yeah I didn't even consider Tapine there If I'm honest but he was definitely an option. Brenko went ok though (a lot better than previous games) I thought.
