Wowwweee

I chose the right captain and couldn’t even break 900

Nothing better than watching the final round of the Masters on a lazy Monday morning. New set of Srixon zx blades in the mail should arrive tomorrow.

Scored 870 in fantasy. Hammer and Levi hurt me. Both trades this week.

you should get a makeover more often

I’m finding MID quite hard at the moment. Need a gun there so looking at Tohu. 
Probably need two actually so I can get Cheese out of there as well

Maybe Jolliffe is the answer. Seems like he has locked up the good minutes in place of Tino. Even with his price rise this week will be priced at around 42 and looking like scoring around 50 average if he keeps getting 55mins+.

Though he's not playing r13.

Hosking was a tough watch last night. Nearly knocked himself out several times before going off for an HIA. I didn't think he would pass so was stoked to see come out after half time. That only lasted a few mins before getting injured. Add him to the trade list

Woke up to a nice little bump to take me to 976…..isn’t it supposed to gradually diminish until you finish about 20 points down just before lockout lifts?

Yeah, I was thinking of you when he got the HIA followed by the dislocated shoulder, unlucky

Apparently Ethan Sanders is seeking early release from Eels so he can join his twin Ethan.

Strange tale of two Ethan's. Future headline

He does play 14,16,19 & 20. I believe it’s the Titans, Manly, Souths, and Tigers who play all four of those rounds, and my “plan” is to keep Cheese until 14 and then deviate to another hooker to carry me through those rounds. Cook I assume is still Origin bound, but if not he’s the top option there, provided he’s named every week. Koro is the next best option, and hopefully his problems are gone by then. Randall definitely option three and then there’s Croker, who I will be going nowhere near.

Yeah pretty solid scores all round
Fogarty (82), Carrigan (74), May (71), DBrown (70), KPP (66), Cheese (65)

only Kris and Shoes scoring below 40 in my starting 17

Not bad at all.

Below 40 for me were Hutch, Kris, Levi, Shoes, Chevy.

I've had the luxury of being able to field 17+ each week, unlike most on the forum.
A few 50/50 decisions going my way lately:
Trading out Hosking instead of holding onto him
Trading Murray to Hynes this round
Not getting JC this round
Iro over Chevy

Good on u Chewie, hopefully it continues for you

a good w/e for me in the 3 formats - nrl 912, sc 1,337, vsdt 1,094....actually disappointed with the vsdt score as i played savage over bs9 in my 17 that's a 35 point loss.

those that punted on j. campbell are very unlucky...he was really getting into it in the 2nd half & finished on 33 in 64 mins he would've finished mid 45-50 imo if he stayed on.

yeah, hope so too, still early days and anything can happen

I was close to getting him in last week and was planning to get him this week, but will pivot to Chester instead

Did you end up getting on or avoid? I think I have to sell him, looks like he’ll be out awhile. Then again I’ve held Piakura all this time due to other problems (and one “luxury” trade that has backfired) so maybe he stays a bit because of that. Does look like a borderline keeper at WFB if fit, money to be made
