For a point of difference pick, I'm running with AFB(C) this week I think.

I've been lucky in terms of having 18 green dots after trades however having to start all but 1 of Salmon, Brbo, Hutcho, Levi, Shoes and Strange is less than ideal.

It’s not really a skill based game I don’t think. And generally players are too scared to trade as they think they are being swindled.

Talagi seems a pretty solid risk, but if he is going to be worth the punt I'd really prefer not to miss this next price rise. Then hopefully I pick up KPP next week? Is this logical, or just go for the possible cut price keeper this week and give Talagi a week?

I can't make the exact trades I want responsibly. Whilst others are putting out fires I'm going to look at trading two potential dud cows and look into focusing on cash gen, it might sacrifice points as I won't be getting in the big names but hopefully it pays dividends.

Cotric and Chan out for Talagi and Finefeuiaki, both have a low BE and will make some cash with the potential for Talagi to have 8 weeks in the halves, should make some good cash. FF I'm less convinced with however I can start him for now until Piakura comes back into the side and he can sit either on the bench or in the EMGs until he's ready to milk.

This gives me 18 players this week, albeit with the same plebs as the others like Levi, Hutch, Burbo. I have a good feeling Burbo scores a try against the Dragons. Hughes in the loop.

I like it. #longgame

Who is captain though?

Bethany_B wrote:Piakura being out for 4 weeks means that the fantasy gods have successfully forced me to hold Shitili this week. I will get his 33 points in 58 minutes and I will like him.

Trades this week are now Wong + Piakura to KPP + Talagi, reluctantly letting Ikat go.

This is dragging society in general, down. And quickly.

I wouldn't put my kids in public schools these days. Private or Home school is the way to go. The indoctrination in Govt. run education is rife. The education is shit. That's why this country is ranked so lowly.

Dumb teachers.

After the Footy and Boxing and Cricket... I started golf at age 30. Great leveller.

Got down to scratch by 35. Have won 19 x A grade club championships at 3 different clubs...Honour board events, if you know what they are. History on the board. Kids, Grandkids, Friends all see it.

Now I play off 3. Blown out a bit but haven't been practising much although I own my own driving range. lol.

If ever you can afford to play club golf, do it. You'll love it. Be good for your character too.

paying close attention :

Can't wait to reply in earnest to this and then get a in response, so I won't. Flogging a dead horse, but you've just made two offhanded assumptions about the three? teachers on here that are objectively wrong (pepp Snatch's chess channel). I don't need to make any assumptions to know that your idea of success is a high salary and a name on a plaque, and not someone with strong character and integrity that builds people up and doesn't tear people down. Do better mate, I only piped up because I'm tired of coming home and reading some entree about your team's trades with a main course of being a dickhead to matt or rabbits21.

Big man over here. Definitely a real alpha - a proper Jake Granville if you know what I mean.
