Wooo gained a point

edit. 2 points

Gained 8

Damn you Blaw haha

went up 22 points!
even with -8 negs to Blaw and Turner

Those with Inglis will be happy. More than doubled his score in updates to 47.

Only 30 bloody points from B Law. Oh well at least I'll have no doubts about him just being a decent scoring mid-ranger who can make a bit of cash before Origin period hits

To be fair by all accounts he had a shocker lol, hoping for better things going forward

Oh yeah I know that. All or most of his missed tackles came within his first stint where Souths scored 3 tries and he was just off in that period. Typical score of someone who's popularity in ownership just skyrocketed though

Now i'm after a little advice. I'm considering next weeks trades. Only because I believe Turner and Rochow have kinda peaked already. I can do two trades next week straight up Carter and Turner for Fensom and Mike Cooper. But I feel im bringing in Cooper almost for the hell of it since he seems to be posting alright scores now he has some match fitness and is under 400k.

My other idea is to trade Fensom in for Carter next week. Then the week after turn Rochow and Turner into JBrom which will leave me with a front row of Bromwich, Tolman, Graham and Lawrence and some decent cash left over to upgrade my halves when they peak out.

Any suggestions?

the last 4 weeks my backs have been doing little and my forwards firing. Now my backs are going nuts and my forwards flopping

Surgess 34 Turner 35 Lawrence 30
vs
Parcell 56 Walker 57 Inglis 47

I really shouldn't complain, because if it had been:

Surgess 56 Turner 57 Lawrence 47
vs
Parcell 34 Walker 35 Inglis 30

I wouldn't have batted an eyelid.

But the forwards are supposed to be the stable players compared to the backs. It is aggravating that they couldn't just hold form on the same week my backs fired to give me the big score. I might be in for another mediocre week #fantasylife

I like the second option, not just for the players you turn out with (Jbrom >> Mooper), but also because it leaves you with Turner and Rochow for an extra week (especially good for Rochow, who easily has the potential to hit 50 and milk a little more in price rises), and with Turner still a fairly low b/e and up against the Roosters he is safe to risk another week. You will be gutted if he jags a try and goes up another 50k for 3 weeks.

would of suggested Tolman but you already have him mate

I will be watching JDB and Friz this weekend and deciding on bringing in one next week

what cash do you have in he kitty?

I have $178,000 at the moment after bringing in RTS for DCE

I'm thinking Rochow - JDB....Turner - Tolman via Welch

Always the same for me mate, really irritating

But when you have mid rangers to start the season, unless you get lucky and the all fire the same week or you avoid injuries ,until your team is filled with the more consistent guns it happens

Also Fishes, one to watch in the 400k price range is T. Sims coming back next week. He could be a gun with 80 mins. Might even want to see how he is used before settling into either a Mooper or a Brommich. Fensom is always a solid choice though.

That is true, Im hoping Rochow can pull out a 50 this week so he can gain again next week.

I have $172k in the kitty so close to you haha. I'm liking the look of Friz to be honest still goes as hard as he did when he was a bench prop

Nah mate I am not a fan of Tariq in fantasy. There was one game last year where he played all 80mins and made 12 tackles and 40 something metres. that is terrible for a second rower i'd rather look at getting Tohu for $380k something now that they have a centre replacement

So on the updates they gave B Law one less penalty conceded but took away 7 tackles as well. I wonder how they decide what was a tackle and what wasn't if they originally counted 39 but revised it to 32

Will be touch and go for me to get Tolman and JDB, all depends how well JDB goes against the cows and how much he rises

Will go Saifiti - Bowen then via Henry the following week for cash

I'm keeping a close eye on Harris and Wade Graham, their prices are tumbling

Yeah I can respect that. I have had him too where he went over the line with 4 defenders and dropped the ball like 4 weeks in a row! But he is in a new side, however shite that side may be. I will still be watching closely. Yeah I heard somebody else talking up Tohu and thought it is not a bad idea
