Guilty as charged mate haha.

Confirming Paul Carter judiciary situation. If successful, he plays this weekend. If unsuccessful, he misses two weeks.


You would think if Taupau only got one week then Carter will get off. What bullshit. I hope he gets two weeks.

if you want to believe all things conspiracy (and I do ) - then i reckon Carter is no chance of getting off. After klemmer/etc debacle they will try stamp some authority with Carter.

I haven't had the chance to pick up Carter due to emergency injury trades... I quietly hope he'll get the 2 weeks

@Chewie

I heard today that Harrison Ford has hinted of a 'Han Solo' return in Star Wars VIII

Yep, Carter is going to be a scapegoat for the Judiciary!

As a Carter owner I hope your wrong! So I hope 'Han' is actually dead Chewie!

I'll believe that rumour when Luke Brooks becomes a Fantasy gun

Or Steve Matai?

Garvey jiko
Graham McGuire Evans packer
Carty merrin rochow carter safiti bhana
Dce Hastings Walker Taylor
Gutherson aubo littlejohn auva
Barba Ted Mitchell Scott Feeney

680k in the bank.

Thinking bhana > fensom

Should I bother about wfb or centres at this point?

Does Whithead get DPP next week?

Was looking at PMat and his juicy -12 break even, but then noticed Newcastle's next 4 games include -
Warriors away
Melbourne away
Brisbane away
Might even end up losing money? lol

Chee-kam is the guy we all wonder if he genuinely exists !

Who is your 2nd hooker at the moment ?  

I've decided no TMM trade in, and seperately no Dugan. Dugan literally looks like he has a season ender every 2nd time he is tackled.

What about green to Auva'a ?   Do you have Scott in your team ?

Smith is my other hooker.
Checked out Auva'a but it leaves me 10k short.
Already have Scott as well.
I would happily hang on to Green as I can see him returning at some stage and making some money.
Ideally I'd go JNiko to TMM but it doesn't give me enough cash for the turbo upgrade.

Sent him a message last year, just sent him another one. Surprised he hasn't come on to bask in the Cowboy's GF glory.

So with CLaw, CScott, Benry in my centres and no DPP WFB to swap in, I'm looking at PatMat to make up 17. With Greg Eden playing as potential AE this makes me nervous. My question is who is best to trade in for?

Feeney/Benry - neither look like playing again this season leaving me with an extra npr this week.
Eden - What a mistake, doesn't look like climbing above 128k and a shitty AE until Reed comes back. At least this way if Merrin or somebody else goes missing again this week I might have a shot at an okay AE.

Unsure but the thought of Tohu Harris getting DPP next week has given me a semi radradra

Sik wrote:Does Whithead get DPP next week?

I thought you had to be named and start 4 games to get DPP, Whitehead played 5/8th last week but im not sure if he was named there. might need a couple more weeks.

If you have the patience, stick it out. The numbers may all match up next week to allow what you want.


How come no one is talkibg about Jazz Tevega ? Is Luke expected back shortly ?
