Not only did I trade Marzhew when he missed the bus but I had the choice between Edwards and Drinkwater

Edwards @ 696k - 39, 56, 29, 32, 52, 19, 19 (246 points)
Drinkwater @ 632k - 57, 77, 101, 57, 71, 37 (400 points + extra game)

Rough as hell- so glad I try not to remember this stuff,

C'mon mate everyone knows to take into account bus missing potential when picking players

Actually ridiculous Camo. Do you know what you did to piss off the fantasy gods?

Interesting to see so many players who had 6-8 week hot streaks regressing towards their long term fantasy average this season

Edwards, NAS, Walsh, Robson, Kiraz

We've only really seen Drinkwater and Marzhew continuously scoring above long term average

Is there a lesson to be learnt here?

Yes, pick Drinkwater and Marzhew before they start scoring well.

In many of these cases, they haven't so much regressed to their long term average, but regressed to be underscoring compared to their average. Robson and Edwards in particular

See, this is why you're a teacher and we're not.

Didn't particularly want to burn one of my last 2 trades on a ctr, but may have to. Got doubts the named backline is what the dolphins will play.

Last night’s Warriors home game at CBus was a very lively environment. It’s been a couple of years since we’ve been there, but something happened before the game that seems to be just an added security measure? We got wanded, like you do at the airport.

Not hearing commentary, obviously, but most around me thought Randall should’ve at least been binned for his hit, and as we were all watching the MoFo replay and seeing angles to make it look worse, I was telling people that he would be sent based upon the night before. Glad to see Charnze walk off under his own power, too.

Ground announcer probably should have been not so hypey hype because the rain of boos every single time from Wahs fans just got to the point of being comical. I very much enjoyed it, plus the passion for their team is definitely up there.

Lastly, the pitch invaders began early. Just kidding. They were promoting some air show.

Seems unlikely they bring in one of the two in reserves? If anything maybe they swap Hammer and Niko?

Out of that group, Nelson is the only one I’ve ever owned, and that was only for rounds 16-20. He did what I asked of him, and then it was time for an eviction.

Agree, seems like the most likely scenario

Alternatively niu could go to ctr, fuller wing, niko.. somewhere else

Did exavtly the same, was always a short term hit and run gamble.

Avgd 50.7 for the time i owned him. Exactly as reqd. Owning nas long term is never a good idea

Was out last night so missed on Yeo. Looks like Friz is coming in after all. 

I’m a little scared now

Does anyone else here own MoFo? I only got him last week, gonna go down as one of my all time worst trade ins. Bastard.

Spewing that I ended up playing Edwards over Kris too.

Mofo and Nathan Brown 1-2 weeks. Grade 2 careless. Both 1st offences.

Luai $3k fine. Grade 1. 3rd offence.

The only charges so far.

Trai Fuller is a FB still in the 19

That's pretty generous considering how long Val got. I only need MoFo for R25 when Haas has his bye so might even get away with holding.

Do we know for sure that Munro is playing?

No

I know for sure that he might
