So we get 3 games if he is back next week before he goes to Origin.

Went down the list to find a HLF/MID that plays 13/14 I could downgrade him to and there is feck all

The remaining 3 games before Origin are all nicely spaced, so should get those 3, and they should be pretty good match ups for him.

Definitely a case for holding one more week - but really tough on those that held him through the injury.

I have him lined up if Salmon and Hughes shit the bed before R13. Cotter and Nanai being out should open up good minutes.

Salmon is surely on life support as it is.
Hughes should be able to eke out a little more money.

Hynes my new cash cow - low break-even and money to make

Looking at a couple of left field trades this week.

Trading out Brandon, Terrell and Ethan.

Trading in Connor, Trai and Max.

Going with gut feel and aiming to get some spots sured up now ahead of the major byes.

Short of WFBs, MID and HOK for R13 the way things are going.

Not sure if mentioned here, but apparently Radley will come in for Butcher on the EDG, with Watson keeping lock and Butcher playing off the bench. Source: Jamie on youtube who apparently got it from Robbo originally.

If Watson can pick up HOK dual and keep playing 70-80 minutes at lock and HOK he is going to be a steal that almost no-one is getting on yet and with a really low BE this week.

Looking at Fuller, with HTF due back R12 currently, it would be unusual to move Trai out of fullback, then have him back there for each Origin round. Might as well leave him there, has been great, and play HTF in CTRs, where he will be in Origin anyway and played lots there last year. Surely if Kodi could keep HTF at CTR last year, Fuller can.

Plath helps me fill the awkward R13 MID spot, which before this round was only Salmon and Hughes in my team, who may not be around much longer.

If still under an injury cloud, may get rested in post-origin games as well. Less likely to want to play him in fast turnarounds.

For most of last week I was not getting Cleary straight away. Then I did. And now he’s injured. Good stuff.

Watson won't get HOK DPP

Why not, he will be playing there every week until the next duals are announced.

They're completely stingy with DPP now. They don't give DPP to someone filling in in game named at lock. Is there a betting market that he won't get DPP because that's free money

The only way he gets dual hooker is if he starts there. Not if he's a starting lock filling in for 20 minutes, not if he's a bench utility.

He's more likely to get half dual than hooker, not that that's going to happen either.

This is the type of news that causes me to want to rage trade the Chin out once and for all.
Held him all the way for 3 weeks of shit scores. (Held Hynes as well.)
SJ looking like a straight swap option. But the Warriors bye rounds suck.
Who would you prefer, Garrick or Joey Manu? (Play Hynes & Galvin with Strange as back-up)

Robbo did talk about it in the post-game press conference, that Radley would have been playing 2RF if fit. Think it's been talked about on here too. However, that was last week's news. Butcher played well, so the Radley to edge move may well not happen now.

As we know from May/Cheese/Wong/Sitili, everything in the Roosters pack is week-to-week if not minute-to-minute.

They are super stingy with DPP like Kerr has only played either lock or mid off the bench and he’s only listed as an edge player. Same arguably for McIntyre. Plays only mid off the bench except when he fills in at centre and only an edge player as well

Must have been said publicly somewhere.

I’m prepared to eat crow. Just to me seems unlikely. He has 20 edge players to chose from in his squad and he wants to move a beast lock. I know he’s not fantasy relevant but Radley is very good

Everyone should punt Cleary now, game on

I hope Syn is all good. Maybe he can go Cleary to Hynes?

ffs Cleary. Get fucked.
