    I'm at 6 MIDs, but no gun, so if you're at 7 then it might be overkill.

    Wong seems like a hold. Sitili and Piakura annoying with the stalled cash gen. Piakura pretty safe JS and hard to replace without spending up, so probably have to play it like Ford last year with the Rd 2 HIA and standown. If Sitili's out, I'll probably punt him for May, but hold if he's right. Ended up skipping Hopgood to take a big enough bank to upgrade anyone to May or whoever shinier shows up next week.

    Suli was pretty much the cheapest CTR I could find with JS and averaged over 30 in the past Laughing

    I have got six I can play at MID although one may end up being a red dot

    three guns - harris mcinness hopgood
    two mid-rangers - b.smith tupounuia
    one sub cashie - i might try to find the additional 15k to upgrade him to shoes [but also maybe not]

    Charterising women for being femine is not sexist, nor is charaterising men with more feminine attributes.

    Was it rabbits intention to belittle women? I doubt it.

    Was pretty happy going without Levi then he plays the whole half, comes back out and scores a try. Still 31pts with what... 14pt try? and -10 in demerits I'm not too upset

    Anyone got any PODs I can life-ride with you tonight? May, RTS, Tuaupiki, Tohu?

    I know plenty will have Grant and Chan (probably EMG).

    Currently have Montoya in my back 3 as a POD

    But I think you know that it perpetuates a stereotype that is both demeaning and completely unnecesary.

    I also think you know that intention seldom weakens harm - there's a pretty topical case this week where the perpetrator has said it wasn't their intention for example...

    Yeah. I got that one wrong....6 years ago. Is that all you've got?

    See how we go this time. Enjoy Smithies, when you can finally fit him in.

    my tv broke wrote:Finally getting to a point where there isn't much tinkering left available.

    Main question is still whether to Kini at WFB3 and if Luki stays or becomes someone in that ballpark range. Can only assume Salmon will start at 13 as named.

    220k in the bank to flip around, but i did want to keep a little on hand.

    Alternatives to Kini are Tuaupiki and Niu. Both cost a bit more and have their own problems.

    If i stick with Kini, I could actually spend all my bank and get McInnes or equivalent price range.. which is mighty tempting but could hurt in a week or two

    I find myself balancing having $48k bank and a young healthy offloading Hopgood, or $149k and an old war horse in Tohu - who will be absolutely fine until he's not...

    $48k bank seems not that useful, short of replacing like for like

    When there are similar options surely it's better going off Tohu one year early rather than one year late

    If I didn't have super-Cam in Draft, I wouldn't have anyone to watch in the Warriors-Sharks game.

    Figured out I am missing players from 6 teams; Rabbitohs, Knights, Sharks, Warriors, Dragons, Cowboys (I currently have Mikaele, but he isn't playing.... or is he?....)

    Those in the same position, you playing Levi’s 31 or giving Chan on debut a run at starting 2RF against the Panthers?

    What is your end goal here?

    Are you that keen on being able to use "girl" as an insult?

    i want to for a quick minute... do a reality check about McInnes

    how many minutes are we expecting with a four MID bench?

    if you take out the big minutes games, 60+ when he played at LOCK last season, he priced just above his average - are we expecting more than 60 minutes on a regular basis?

    I was at music bingo last night, my phone died with about 15 to go so missed the end of the game.

    Won two free schooners and a jug of beer at the end of the night which was great fun apart from the fact that I wasn’t counting on free beer when I drank the earlier schooners. Now I’m dealing with a hangover as I check my team. Half day of work today at least.

    22 and 35 from Cotric and KP in my back three is a bit of a disappointment, but KP will have ups and downs and wasn’t expecting loads from Cotric. Solid from Levi without being amazing. Strange in my NPR is a win. Go Smithies 🙌.

    His choice of language could be better. But intention matters in my opinion.

    Rabbits21 - Consider for a minute that he doesn't have the same eloquence the other linguists here. Yet no concession is made for this fact (As far as I can tell).

    All your posts has done, is made rabbits21 look like a sexist moron, which is probably not the case. Rabbits like many of us are guilty of sometimes speaking quickly with no ill intent  we all make mistakes from time to time (Sam kerr?!), some more freuqnet than others. You don't need to protect a group of people who don't need protecting. I'm sure those ladies are tough as nails. As are the other female aspiring league players.

    Chan needs a try to get over 30 in Cup. May not play 80 with Lewis on the bench (or Blore or Bradley sitting in the 19).

    Well that's an interesting way to mark international women's day.

    Maybe next time before you use "girls" as some sort of negative floor for performance, you think about what would happen if you tried to run around Georgia Hale in a game, or maybe tried to tackle Mele Hufanga, Millie Boyle or Isabelle Kelly just as a few examples.


    Rabbits21 would destroy them cause he's the enforcer of the pack it wouldn't be pretty.
