    Whats the rub with Murray re-signing, does Lattrell have a I'm a pissy cry baby get out clause ?

    Maybe they should run the 13-player bye round rules for last rounds moving forward Laughing

    Here was I thinking it was smart to save the one trade to replace one of my Eels players on the bye this round

    I'll struggle to get 13 playing this week

    I imagine next year everyone will save 4 trades for the last 2 rounds. Then we'll have a quiet year without much in the way of injury/restings, and people will cost themselves points with random sideways trades just for the hell of it.

    For next season even though it makes sense for bigger squads I don't see that happening because the site would have to be redesigned (even if it is only slightly) and we know they don't want to spend any more money on it (need one of the wizards here to do it for them).

    The easiest solution for fanhub which costs no money is adding or removing trades, so I wonder whether they maybe remove 2 of the earlier available trades and make them only unlock in the final round, or maybe they split the 8 that unlock in 20 to 6 and then add 2 in the final round instead.

    I'd definitely prefer bigger squads though.

    Hardly surprising, he's played every game and played 80 mins in all but two of them (72 and 74 mins).

    Him resting is a perfect opportunity for Howarth SZN to happen, it's what the fans want!

    I feel there is like a 0% chance NRL allow this to happen next year. Expect a bye between last round and finals or some other measure. Probably the bye tho.

    The lesson in all of this is you can't control for luck.

    Nobody is holding 4 trades for the last round who wants to win.

    Trade hard, score big, clench your ass cheeks.

    Can't imagine Ch9 are too impressed with their Thurs night blockbuster.

    Hopefully the Fri night blockbuster delivers, unlike last year

    I almost shelled out a few hundred to travel down to the Broncos game last minute because I thought the minor premiership would mean something to them, luckily as I was looking around I was getting the feeling that the club didn’t give a shit, so I decided against it and I’m glad I did, with the teams that look like taking the field from the reports, it’ll barely even be worth watching on tv.
