If you never sell him, you don’t lose any money.

He’s staying for me, I need to two trade to field 16. Not selling a green dot.

Chan + Rapana --> Chevy + Iro, Hynes next week.

Was settled on Rapana + Teddy --> Iro + Hynes all week but I haven't seen any indication that Teddy misses more than a week? Can anyone shine more light on this?

It seems your decline coincided with becoming my nemesis. Make of it what you will

I’ve finally dumped his ass and my team of spuds looks instantly and markedly better.

Do it.

You and Rabs have made up?

If he was late change to start (won't happen) I'd maybe sell Chan instead and only red dots would be Piakura and Galvin but rather have the extra $105k for next week and 1 red dot not terrible

Sitili was a late change to start last weekend. He scored 13.
I switched from trading him out to trading out Smithies.
Kick him out the door and lock it before you can change your mind.

Trade in one of the below in, depth in HLF good but WFB no current back up.

TU: Johnson $814k
TD: Ponga $738k

Haha yeah I don’t even dislike Sitili for his scores.

I did exactly what you did and I feel like that was so much worse

Finally trading him this week and I'd compare the feeling to the relief you get after taking a really large poo

Reading Crichton's comments in the media, it doesn't seem his retention is much of a priority for the Roosters at the moment.

So playing to try earn a contract elsewhere. Perfect

In Robbo's presser today he mentioned that they've made their position to Angus clear, and they want him to stay. With that said, Robbo mentioned that it's completely up to Angus about his future.

Reading between the lines: Roosters want to keep him for a certain price. If Angus believes he's worth more, he'll be thanked but ultimately sent packing.

Side note: This is one of the main reasons the Roosters appear to be breaching the salary cap. We've notoriously been very firm with the amount we want to pay players. If they don't like it (Napa and Latrell come to mind) they are shown the door. The club has the leverage, not the players.

Insert Burbo instead of Smithies for me. I'd rather have Burbo still. And that's saying something.

In Robbo's presser today he said Teddy seems great. The next day he could recall specific conversations he had with the ref around captains challenges etc. Robbo also mentioned that the Roosters and their doctors have learned a lot about concussion over the last year (sending people over to 'Murica to learn from leading researchers). No specifics about how many weeks, but based on Robbo's comments it seems like Teddy is on track to return next week.

Gee I hope Chan comes on to the bench at 6pm, I would totally take his bench score at 17th man over whatever Shitili puts up. Either that or Shitilli cut altogether, I'll trade him and play 16 and get that large poo relief.

Already $157k down on his starting price. I guess you'd probably wait and see this week then get him after the bye...

I need to get rid of bulldogs, not add them. 3 or 4 of them stinking up most people’s teams despite us trading every week.

Hearing about all this damage Sitili has done to people’s trade plans has me feeling relieved he was never in my team, have enough on my plate with the other shittos I fell for.
