God he looked awful Guerra. Completely lost. The dropping of Nik definitely got the best out of Hastings but that was as bad as I've ever seen Guerra play. Running sideways, dropping the ball. Usually so solid.

we need a drunk//high thread so I can post without feeling judged

Anyone worried about Scott getting a run he is 90% likely to be a late inclusion at centre

Ok, I've spent some time travelling Skye, sunk a few pints and had some time to calm down. I'd now like to take this time to say once again, fuck you FPN you lazy dumb grubby potato.

I should be looking at that game and be absolutely chuffed with the scores from Whitehead and Vaughan. Nope. Can't even bring myself to wish for more out of Croker or be upset about trading out hastings this week. have no space for any other emotion other than anger and frustration. Barnett... Please Ricky

Whitehead has repaid me since trading him in for Bhana with 2 50+ scores, my best trade of the year so far. Stuck with JNiko>Parcell and Evans>BLaw so hopefully I don't regret the second trade

I can't even find joy in watching the time honoured classic that is maubs. Doing his thing and forever finding a way to disappoint fantasy coaches everywhere, whilst doing enough to keep them thinking "it was just unfortunate, next week that won't happen and I'll see some return!"

As anything more come from the Titans interchange bungle with Roberts following his injury. We were attacking the line if they defended with 14 men then they deserve to have two points stripped off them.

And I am with you archer fuck you fpn

That FPN cheap shot basically cost the Raiders the game. I can't believe that at that stage of the game he'd do that. I wouldn't want to be him after the game as Stuart would throttle him.

Raiders v Titans changes:


Roosters v Sea Eagles changes:

Live ranking inside the top 2,500 with Captain Cam still to come as well as

Tedesco
Gutherson
Rochow
Jafiti

and my 18th man out of Taylor, Barba and Lafai

2nd row was Whitehead (68), Parker (69) and... Carter (19)
Halves were DCE (55), Walker (50) and Hastings (63) so I'm pretty happy with this round so far!

The Aubbs trap is actually a little bit different this year.
Usually he gets unexpectedly benched to produce his low scores.
This is the first time he has actually played 80 second row and just had underwhelming performances. Perhaps he is just trying to branch out in his versatility at breaking fantasy hearts.
Well hats off to you, Aubbo!

Woke up this morning hoping to see some good updates, let's see what I got.............

Hastings and DCE very good, only one tackle break added to Latrell and -1 for Aubusson? Okay bunker you've made the shit list. That's 12 points you've taken away from Latrell and Gillett this week and 13 from Aubusson. Oh where I'd be if I had those 37 points.

Also, DCE scoring 55 with 16 mins on the pine. Its a damn shame he didnt score the 70-odd he would be capable of just to punish those that traded him out. His form was visibly coming better too, such a shame about the injury. Hopefully he mends fast.

If DCE's injured for a few weeks it gives me an excuse to get Mbye, only problem is I won't have enough cash and Johnny B Good, add another 2 onto Aubs because if he did get the TA then he wouldn't have got the -2 for the penalty/error, (whichever it was)

Happy Easter to one and all

At what point do you start bye planning? I currently only have 5 players for round 11. I want to bring in Johnson and RTS but with rubbish byes I should probably bring in Norman and De Belin.

Tough year to bye plan and with the cheap guns almost ready for the picking I'm thinking of just finalising my team as quickly as possible.

This just in I have no source on it as of yet but some Manly fan on another forum I post in says apparently DCE is out for a month with ankle ligament damage. I'm sure more official news will flow in soon but if it's 4 weeks then it's so long farewell, auf wiedersehen to the million dollar man, at least until he bottoms out in price.

I didn't bye plan at all with my initial team, but I ended up with 18 outs in R12, so I've been trying to minimise my R12 bye players with every subsequent trade. Down to 15 out in R12 at the moment with 3 trades used, with 18 out in R18. This means the likes of Hastings, Evans, Carter, JNiko, Taylor, Mitchell, TTrbo and Barba are in the gun to get it down to somewhere nearer the perfect 8 by R12.

Who comes in for FPN? Wont be there next week for sure.

Anyone else thinking of not worrying too much about Rd 12 and nailing every other bye round?
