    So, is anyone bringing in the teeny-weeny Rabbits halfback Dawko now that Rabbits21 saw him training in 7?

    Pros: Cheap, Tiny (scoots?), some forum posters think he could be good.
    Cons: Plays for a poor side on the way down, Tiny, little JS, can't see how he'd pick up points.

    Will probably buy because I routinely make bad decisions. May wait a week and get someone decent instead.

    Luki didn't play 80 because he had a history of breaking and they wanted to keep and give minutes to FineFuk.

    I'd be surpursed if he doesn't at least play 60+ minutes and he is a really good 2nd rower. Depending on length Luki is out he is a must trade in for me.

    You could but say he gets a conservative 35 points he'll go +30k

    Similarly if Lussick gets a 50 he'll go +40k, or Curran 50 he'll go +30k

    But at 280k then FF looks best points/price I guess. But then the others get a bit further out of reach

    Won't matter anyway once Gosiewski is named starting edge

    However you want

    Just shows a players Breakeven, their season average, the price they'll rise if they score their season average, their last 3 game average and the price they'll rise if they score their last 3 game average, and the Value is how much money they'll make if they maintain their current season average.

    Its sorted by position and price rise based on 3 game average.

    footystats has most of this info available too (or you can just pay for coach) I just keep posting mine each week from force of habit.

    Cheers, yeah I actually just meant what are the column headers, so you've answered my question. Thanks!

    I still can't believe we are giving 4 points for an offload to hands, but a linebreak assist is only worth 2 points. LBA has to be at least 4, OFH no more than 2 or 3 and buff an LB to 5 or 6. Try to 10.

    Benji subbed the starting 3 middles all around 20 min mark since they were going poorly.

    Toa got injured around 45th min which meant bateman to centre, i am guessing Fainu went to edge, but dont recall for certain
    If only there was a website that had community notes added to the games

    The guy he is replacing didn't play the full 80. Guess it depends on the cowboys bench make up and who slots in to replace Fine on the bench (assuming Finefeuiaki gets the starting spot)

    My guess is Goseiwski comes onto the bench. Or maybe they go with a young guy like Pua'Avase or Shibisaki who can both play edge.

    And for those wondering about Cup performances. Shibisaki had a 2 try, 78 point game on the weekend.

    I like FF as a nickname for Finefeuiaki

    Top 25k now so lookout! Only 250k short of going Levi to Lussick and Luki to May. So the must in is May  and the must outs are far too many! Ponga and Levi would be my favoured two. All I need is Haas to be out a few weeks and Kini to get dropped this week to totally screw me! Luki will be my loop this week. No need to rush him out of the side.

    Not sure if ya mixing up Hawkins with Jye Gray here, if not carry on and my mistake.
