    Great first half from the Matilda's, good to see they didn't just park the bus after taking the lead.

    Let's hope they can go on with it in the 2nd half, and Kerr isn't needed.

    Had a look at AFB but averages 5 less with Tevaga in the side (who's back this week)

    You reckon Tevega plays 20mins or so at 9? Maybe 25? Egan has been going great but probably not a 80min hooker.

    Think it’s a possibility but unlikely, they need Egan on the park to win games

    But if they’re up by heaps it wouldn’t surprise me

    Do they even really need Tevaga on the 17? Does he even come straight back in?

    I did think that that was probably right after our discussion. Most of the NRL players are too young for Street Fighter.

    I have lovely memories of walking barefoot to the local dairy with a couple of 20c coins to stand on a milk crate and play some streetfighter <3

    So there’s a chance??  (Insert dumb and dumber gif)

    On a side note, can any tech guru’s explain why I can longer post any gifs, emojis, etc etc.
    I also can’t see anything hidden in a spoiler.
    It seemed to coincide with an update to my Nortons 360 subscription.

    Cheers in advance.

    Assuming you can no longer click on the buttons in the banner it's probably something to do with javascript being disabled in your browser settings

    If that doesn't work might need to get SI on the case

    Brimson has a abdomen injury, will prob still play.

    Due to injury to J.Fifita, Brimson spent 2nd half at right ctr.

    Thoughts on the least bad sub-430k guy? if I want to go JDB to Cleary (pending judiciary, if he gets off then I won't trade him obviously), then I need someone in this price range, ideally MID or CTR/WFB for depth.

    My current shortlist:

    Turuva - good attacking team but stuck outside a notorious ball hog

    Koula - decent draw and nice dual but low base

    Suaalii - Handy dual and kicks goals but the Chooks really suck

    Leo Thompson - has been getting decent mins but meh PPM, was killing it earlier in the year though

    Fonua Pole - if he keeps the mins he got last week he could be a goer but trusting any Tigers player isn't easy. He is a Victorian junior so I do like him Very Happy

    Zac Laybutt - Should get the left CTR spot in a good Cowboys team while Val's suspended, and that extra money is decent enough, but I don't know if he's a great scorer.

    Turuva or Koula and loop where possible

    Yeah that'd be the plan, I'd be looping Sandon Smith alongside whichever one of these guys I pick. Turuva's probably the frontrunner at the moment.

    If JDB gets the charge downgraded, then I can just trade Hands in 1 trade to someone at <583k (DWZ is top of the list with that Warriors draw and huge upside)
