I'm an overweight guy, from Queensland, who likes coffee in the morning and red wine at night. I don't think I've ever been cold in my life. No shivering here. I don't really have boots either. I will beat you. Hopefully 1199 to 1198, as I've brought you in for fantasy fantasy

And then this happens.

Generally speaking to the punters out there, would you hold Cook, or Tohu?

So low is my faith in Cook, though, that I'd still back a limited minutes Tohu to outscore whatever minute Cook we're getting at the moment.

If HOK coverage wasn't an issue, I wonder if punting both and bringing Cleary/Murray/Mcinnes/Russell would be the ticket?

Eh rough choice. If you had trades up your sleeve then flick both imo

Probably depends on how badly you need the potential extra $30Kish

Here I am getting belted out of the eliminator by a guy who doesn’t own the best player in the game.
Please get him now so you can win it all and I feel like less of a shitto.

The answer to the $632k question for me, lies literally beneath the threshold

Kolomatangi - $631k

Never been cold in your life, ffs.
I played golf last Thursday, according to the BOM, it was minus 8, feels like minus 11.
For comparison, I’m mid 50’s, only slightly overweight, don’t drink coffee and can’t stand wine, of any variety.

Would you hold Reynolds or CNK over these two, or just get rid of all four? I guess if I got rid of all four I could bring in Cleary/Murray/Russell and someone like an Api? But if I'm doing that, why trade out Cook or Harris, who would score similar to Api? lol. I am a muddle. I could bring in McInnes, but it still leaves the HOK situation... and do McInnes and Tohu play similar minutes for a similar PPM anyway?

You making any trades this week? Carty can't keep it up suuurely

Carty is on a roll

Tempted to go Cook to Murray, but will probably resist the temptation
I may go for a spicy captaincy option though

He's been on my watch list for some time now, but been really underwhelming for several weeks now.

You expecting Latrell's return to lift the whole team from here on in?

I just seen it was 9-9, so I’ve decided to break it up. Sorry, not sorry?

Probably keep CNK out of all those tbh with the Warriors run home, but if you have 3 other good wfbs then he's probably surplus. If Cook isn't getting 80 I'd say he's the most dispensable

Cleary and Murray are clear upgrades over all of them though, so it's all a gut feel who you flick

I think so mate, Murray/Garrick/DCE locked in for me now. Just spend newxt few days weighing up Haas/Yeo/Hors. Edging Horse because Haas/Yeo more liekly to get a rest last week I'm thinking.

But currently on

Manu/Harris/NAS/Bula out for Garrick/Murray/DCE/Haas

Grany
JDB Murray Haas
Hynes Cleary
Garrick Lemu
Ted Ponga Drinkwater

Hopgood
DCE
Robson
King

SJ
VTW
Kris
Graham

They look like great trades, I’m very envious.

Top ten gainers from starting price has some surprising names in it (not counting gainers from lowest to highest price like Drinkwater)

1. Preston
2. Cartwright
3. Hopgood
4. Blore
5. Bula
6. SJ
7. Kodi
8. Ford
9. Horsburgh
10. Crossland

Am I mad for considering a pod play and going Marzhew over Teddy or Garrick?

Knights have Raiders, Dogs, Dolphins, Dragons, Rabbitohs and Sharks on run home.

Marzhew has scored 45 or higher in 10 out of 14 games this year and is avg 54.5 for the season with 200 metres and 9 tackle breaks on avg a game.

It’s definitely a boom or bust scenario, I say why not go for it. Just cross your fingers he doesn’t miss any more buses, or a flight back from Perth.

You're not mad. But again, nobody knows how those guys are going to score. You have to just make a decision.

Matchups mean fuck all lad! if you want a POD play then Marzhew is the man. Otherwise go Ted or Garrick

Also, PODs mean fuck all, pick the one you think will score most. It's not like Ted or Garrick are universally owned either.

this must be the first time I’ve caught them all.

Only owned 5 of those players. However I do generally have a lower team value than those ranked around me.
