    Might be the move for me.

    Just can't trust Yeo for round 27.

    Tino playing in a finished team, missing a bunch of players, against the Panthers, then Storm. Matchups etc, but... probably get suspended too.

    Sharks in a battle for ladder positions..

    If it's neck and neck with the Broncs I don't think he'll get a rest.

    More worried about early showers in this round and 27.. can't see the titans game being remotely close

    Storm fans, what's Reimis Smith's JS like? Is he dropped again when Warrick is fit, or moves to centre for Seve/Tonumaipea

    Shouldn't be any resting of Cowboy players now hopefully, they will be throwing everything at their remaining games.

    Assuming Warbrick is first choice when uninjured, it won't be Coates making way for him.

    Recency bias says Seve/Young T are now preferred but who knows how long that is going to be the case

    Nah I am probably cooked too, seems a few like 2nd are dodging all these injuries and coming home with a storm haha
    This week is ok, but rd27 I am down to 16 inc Bula and 1 trade left

    Can go Matterson to DCE in one trade with 0 balance or use it elsewhere
    I don't think Tboyd money gets me anything decent with 647k unless I bring back in Manu

    Will have to have a look

    That was a nice TLT, was worried for my last trade this week, but happy enough to to put Graham and Haas Jr into the loop and hold onto it.

    Why not, out of curiosity?

    Because of Ricky The Absolute Fucking Stewart, I'm going to have to make a call on either playing Harrison Graham or Dan Russell straight in my 17 this week.

    Can't loop, because I brought in Schiller last week as my surefire loop option for H2H GF, should I make it. With Kris and Croker out, and still not even named in reserves last week, I was 100% sure Schiller would not be named again this season. If I said silly things, I'd say I was 110% sure! But Ricky, Fucking, Stewart. What a fucking thing...

    Anyway, I wonder if I can try one of these. If you had to play one of these in a cash league H2H GF, who would you pick-

    TU - Harrison Graham
    TD - Dan Russell

    My quick analysis is Graham vs Tigers could be a good match-up and a pretty loose kind of contest... could even duck over for a try. But how many minutes does he play?
    Russell has been super reliable in recent weeks, but are Melbourne going to pulverise Saints this week and therefore reduce his opportunity to score well?

    Gut probably says Graham, maybe? Any strong opinions either way?

    Panthers have a points differential of 76 over Broncos, which will extend this weekend when Broncos have the bye. As long as Panthers are winning, Broncos aren't getting close.

    Will be amazed if Papy isn't back next week for Storm, when Meaney takes his wing spot.

    As long as the Broncos are winning they’re only a Panthers dropped game away from jumping them and they are facing the Cowboys, who beat them the last time when they were short of star players, if Broncos and Panthers are tied going into Round 27, resting players will come down to how much Cleary cares about the minor premiership.

    I expect he is willing to risk a potential minor premiership to rest players to win the only prize that matters to him.

    Going conspiracy theory, currently if Panthers are first they'll play Storm in week 1. If they are 2nd they'll play the Warriors.

    Things can change in 2 weeks, but they may prefer to come 2nd.
    (that sort of shenaingans can often backfire, so I doubt they'd go as far as deliberately losing)

    If nothing else though, I imagine Cleary plays in R27, given he's already missed a bunch of games with injury. Cleary played in 2020 and 2021.

    I like that move Matto > DCE. You have the lead so don’t necessarily need to go Poddy.

    I’ll be lucky to finish top 50 with 3 weeks of playing short Laugh 3
