Get off your 'woke' high horse. What abuse? A dig he deserves. You grow up, peanut. You wouldn't go around calling me a jerk to my face, so don't do it here.

Broncos forum seems to think Haas is playing, and they're usually on the money with injuries if nothing else. Kevvie interview saying Haas went for knee scans but they didn't find anything much there. Don't know if that's a good or a bad thing.

Been playing around with the idea in my head that if Haas is out, or seems dodgy, I could move Haas on for May and Hosking. Looks dynamic on paper and Hosking is a given (for me) in formats like SC and Dream Team where his price hasn't moved yet, but I'm actually wondering in Fantasy, is Hosking basically not far off his peak price? Obviously he's going to make a heap of cash this week, but assuming he sits around that 50-ish range most weeks, does he go up much more than the mid to late 700s? And this is assuming he keeps his current role, which is possibly unlikely. So is he then being brought in as a keeper and cash generation not important?

Easy to say for me as a Hosking owner already but would be very brave to bring him in now without seeing what happens on Whitehead's return.

As speculated by others on here I reckon Whitehead on the bench is a likely scenario and takes ~20mins from Hosking. 60mins of Hosking for $700k? And there is still a much worse case scenario possible where Hosking goes to the bench (yes despite the fact we can all see he is a gun player - it's Ricky).

BaldShitTruck wrote:How are Taylan May owners feeling?

Pretty keen on this guy to bring in as a keeper, has a bye coming up but don't see a lot of downside otherwise.

It's a toss up between May for my centre to pair with Koula or Fogarty/Moses to replace Galvin as starting half

Talau or Kini to be named :D - Please god, I just need one.

Also Lucas to be back, not as important.

What "wants" does everyone else have?

It would be nice for Kris to miraculously recover from the HIA - only a cat2 so not impossible.

I also want DFifita to be named, just to watch him play.

If you need some fuel, I started the season with both Lolo and Kiraz and I was so sure they'd be great picks. I have also posted in the past that Terrell May will only play 35 minutes in round 2 and even before that tried to make a case for Leniu being a good pick.

If you want to attack me personally instead, I play a heap of footy myself. I got dropped from HDC last year 3 rounds into the year and then only lasted a week in a cup preseason this year before getting cut after running a 6+ minute bronco. I've been single the last 3 years mainly because i'm still in love with my ex and I wear a beard to hide the fact I have no jawline.

It's not an accident that the panthers sucked when he wasn't at 9. Soni Luke killed their plays, and I doubt they give him too much game time if Kenny is fit.

Plays in a good team, should get 65+ and under 500k. No origin either.
