Do you sleep standing up?

Good night

Im gonna be honest. My OCD dictates that my team must be sorted in order of price from left to right for starting 13 and top to bottom of the bench.

Yep.

Rookie, I sort on eye Colour and middle name.
The blue eyed Corey Alberta Parker always wind's up in the starting 13.

Good advice though, I actually hadn't given it much thought before now.

Thats a ridiculous middle name.

i just found the "teams breakdown" in leagues. Great feature for checking everyone out

My bad, had a typo, corrected it. Jeebus, even fucked up the first name. In my defence its a long day at work

I can cover DCE this week, so holding off on DCE to SJ or RTS for 1 more week.

I was thinking about holding off on an immediate DCE trade too. But then I realised whether I do it this week or next, it doesn't really matter. DCE to M'bye was too tempting, whereas Carter/Cartwright/LAM to Whitehead/Ma'u or someone else can probably wait another week at least.

In my situation I don't see myself losing points this week if I don' trade him. With my targets of SJ and RTS not changing price much unless they have absolute blinders, I'm thinking to just ride out another week and see in case of other injuries.

what happens if you hold off this week then next week another of your guns goes down or even 2 mid rangers get injured? Youre fixing injured players with your 2 trades you could have done earlier and might miss a new CC

inevitably they will both score poorly a few times when the attacking game just doesn't click

its tough to decide if its a purple patch for both or can we expect more of the same going forward

second year in the halves for Milf, has looked outstanding and did at the back end of 2015 to be fair, was a new full time position last year so all might have fallen into place

first year as a full time half for Mbye, goalkicking with an ever improving attacking game and decent base stats, could he carry his gun fantasy scores throughout the season?

I see no reason why M'bye can't keep it up. I think J-Rey is taking a lighter role is starting to go missing in games (or just being outshone completely) That's not a bad thing if their winning games why would the coach change it?

Milford.. Wow is all I can say. Can't believe that people were criticizing the length he was 'tried' in the halves last year and should be thrown back to fullback. People were actually saying it was a failed experiment?? I am sure no one will admit to that now. He is just on another level I can only see him getting better but I think will have more quiet games that M'bye would due to the kicking and goals that he has over Milf

Yea our discussion has led me to go Mbye over Hunt

so will be running

Smith, Garvey
Woods, JTurbo, Surgess
Merrin, Taupau, Turner, Rochow
Mbye, Hastings
Gutherson, Aubbs
Barba, Gordon, Mitchell

last reserve from JSaifiti, Cartwright, BLaw

Is that the third rule after the two Cameron Smith ones?

Haha.

Yep. Picked it like a nose Fishes.

The logical conclusion seems to be Mbye > Milf. This only makes me want Milf more. Am I crazy?

I'm going to have a sleepless night with this DCE trade. Milf, Mbye, Bowen, TMM, RTS are all options.

Oh christ

When is Arey due back?

I can cover DCE in the short term so if I am unlucky enough to lose 3 players this round then I've walked under a ladder. The injury comment was moreso directed at the players I am looking at trading in, SJ and/or RTS, then those I have. So I don't think I'll lose points this week by not doing the trade (hopefully), and it gives me another week to look at other options.

First step might be working out whether you need more cash generators, or are happy with what you have. Potentially narrows the decision down.

I;m glad I could help you with a decision SI but one thing from looking at that team. Why isn't Blaw an automatic pick? Been outstanding and is now starting?

I have the same decision between Rochow and Saifiti but those two are much closer in scores. Blaw I think will blow them both out of the park

NRL.com has him as a definitive Round 7-13!

RTS's BE is at an awkward one which works in the favour of waiting a week if he scores a 60 his price isn't going to drastically change he may go up by what. 9k im guessing. In the scheme of things 9k isn't worth rushing in a player for.

Stats won't tell you that Hymel Hunt will be happier and play better alongside his cousin Kirisome.

That melbourne was too far from Redcliffe

Could also do the opposite. Them trying to outdo each other which could lead to more Carterisms
