I have issues everywhere Luki, Hutcho, Flanno, Shitili, Wrong, not good.

Cheese only getting 46mins was criminal but I have to hold for now. All my keepers are losing money. I have the Kris HIA, Kini issue if JC is back, Haas might be out. Issues everywhere. Not enough trades need 6 next week.

Then I have the issue of 3 Storm guys on bye in round 4 too.

Really not a good round a 762 for me after a 709 last week dank down from 39k to 42k not a good start at all. Gonna have to keep fighting but it’s a long way back.

Geez. That's no good mate.

802 for me, 97k to 48k, so the comeback is on.

I only really have one urgent sell this week (Luki), but I'm probably making two trades, means I can get rid of a shitto (likely to be Levi but could be Flanno or Sitili if I want to go that way instead).

Plan is Galvin in for Luki and (ideally) Smithies for the other trade, though could get anyone in that price range.

Lousy 876 this week. Moved from 30,000 to 2,400 odd.

I've got the same shitters as everyone else...Flanagan, Levi, Salmon, Hughes et.al, but B.Smith has to go. The only chook forward I'd contemplate now would be May. Beware bottom 2 team forwards.

Also, looks like Crichton is back next week.

Hey Snatch. I've been around 10 years longer than Matt, so I can't be the new Matt.

BTW. He's stone motherless last in the FOG. lololol

Who is lol.

877 for me rank 1.1k.

Pretty good start for me, team in a good spot.

Didnt chase the bright lights.

Laptop has been snatched from the wife’s hands and has been smashed to smithereens with a sledge hammer 

It’s ok Matt mate shit happens many of us have had a rough start it’s how we fight and bounce back that matters hang in there mate many of us are feeling disappointed with our starts.

Even being say 100-200 points behind with good trades you can still recover if you plug away. Sorry about Seyfarth mate I was nervous on him which is why I waited to watch a week.

It updated. Lone Scout is 2 behind the guru now, bugger it.

814, carried over the 800 mark on Zac Hoskings mighty shoulders.

Api + Turbo in for Lolo and Tatola this week which I'm fairly pleased with so far, though Lussick would have been the better but.

Assuming I've still got enough starters in the back 5 next week (currently zero cover) probably just roll with Sitili + Levi to the good May and Galvin. Pretty straight bat. Campbell can come in if I need a WFB.

Fun weekend of footy, still gutted about the Wahs result but fair play on that try. That out and in play for the Pap try was also gorgeous. Fucking Melbourne.

Last one before bed.

St.Merge looked good @robelgordo and @reklaw

May a must have?

Watching the footy this weekend I finally understood how well-named the Charity Shield is.

Two basket-case teams - one that shouldn't be back in the league and one where the players seem to wish they were elsewhere - given a bit of pre-season charity. A 'high-profile' game where they each look good in comparison to one another.

Still, there's always next year! Chin up lads. Again.

Edit:just saw your post above Rabs. Weird flex to be trying to look down on a team above yours in the ladder. Maybe try being less shit before throwing more shit?

If you think he keeps a 50mins role I would say yes

Me after this round how it feels currently re fantasy and Souths

Don’t think anyone expected them to ever look good this season

They have won a game though.

Early flick of Ponga - interesting. Could prove to be seriously well played.

My problem is that I have 5 plodders and duds that I would love to punt, but I'm not seeing a combo of any two of them that can get me to Terrell May and Finefuiaki. Which, on a Sunday night before team lists n' stuff, is where I feel I want to be next week. Just not sure I can get there... unless I trade out a Ponga too, lol. But I don't have the testicular fortitude for that, as I am certain he will score a 91 the week I trade him out - if I did.

Then please please please trade him out tomorrow!

Matt obviously looking to replicate the famous BL and slightly less famous rabbit charge this season.

Interesting tactic.

70k to 24k this week! Levi can go back to the bench -against the Tigers scored shit, but only slightly shitter than Cheese at nearly half the price. UnLuki to May and Cheese to Lussick? What to do with Pong though? As shit as my side may be, at least it doesn’t require the 6 trades my SC team needs!

Ahhhh, winning a game, playing football in September -both so over rated!

If it is any consolation I scored 615 in R1 for an FOG rank of 169th and an overall rank of 123350th

R2 i improved by score by 196 and now I am 155th in the FOG and overall 64880th

That is a gain of almost 60,000 spots in one week... Things can change quickly
