He's like a dog with a bone with the amount of times he repeats something. It's absolutely infuriating, and it's always negative and against a call. The call is never the right one according to him.

I would predict Wishart scores well over 38 for R10, 11 and 12... Melbourne has the bye R13.. Will play 80 minutes in R16 and 19 Could get larger minutes or replace Munster in 14, 17 and 20.

I reckon it is worth the risk.

Wishart has an average of 57 playing at half, but those 2 games he was next to Pezet and Jikorima.

Munster should take a lot more of the workload

Bigger question is how is he playing 80 mins in R19 when Storm have bye

If McGuire picked NSW soley on performance in 2024 so far, who would be picked for this year's origin team?

I rarely watch regular NRL games, so I can't answer this myself.

On form and what they can do each game.

FRF: Haas Uto
2RF: Hamhole Angus
LCK: Yeo
HOK: JBrai
HLF: Cleary Hynes
CTR: Tago Lomax
WNG: To'o Turbo/DEdwards
FLB: DEdwards/Teddy
BENCH: Api/Robo/Watson, McIness, Aitken, TMay/Barnett

I'm not saying that's the team or what I think will be selected, but they are some genuine in form/performance players.

Sydney, hasnt said where.

Likely Panthers or Roosters

To cover all bases

Assuming he signs with Penrith - Way too much money for a back rower. Super inconsistent and always injured. Only shows up once every 6 weeks and has made an entire career out of running at centres

Assuming he signs with the Roosters - Elite signing. Discount on Crichton. Best halves he has ever played with. Gets to play outside Sam Walker for the next decade

Any injuries, withdrawals today ? Doesn't seem to be many pages flying by, but might not be able to catch up

Nothing of note, only a rumour about Cleary out again (I dont believe it) that's about it at the moment

I am not sure that question is much bigger - but you are correct. There are no guidelines on the Table on page 1 and I read is as the Storm having the bye in R20

Could ditch him for a tidy profit after R16/17

I don't get all the 'off the back fence' talk when CTE is becoming a contentious issue amongst past players.

Cheers. That answers the question well.

It used to feel like teams were picked more on form. Or I might be sounding my age.

Back fences were a lot closer in the old days (around the 30 metre line)...everything was a bit smaller 30 years ago : cars, houses, people, serving sizes, rugby league, back fences

Is Taylan May form chance of turning round. Only 1 try this season last game. Cleary back though 2 scores sub 30 with him. DPP and good early bye schedule and lowest score of 27 not a horrible floor priced at 37

I'm waiting for his mate on the other side

What's the general feeling among Cheese owners this week?

TU: He's too cheap to trade now, hooker's a shitshow & he plays R13. May as well hold.

TD: Sick of the sight of him. Get out of my team at any cost.

Can't speak for the coach, but on form I'd pick a run-on team of:

Tyrell Sloan
Alex Johnstone
Harley Smith-Shields
Brent Naden
Charlie Staines
Cody Walker

Drew Hutchinson
Reagan Campbell-Gillard
Peter Maumezelos
Keaon Koloamatangi
Corey Waddell
Jacob Host
Jaeman Salmon

And that fact I'm a Maroons fan is irrelevant.

Qld would still claim underdog status though.

I've been thinking about JMK, but he doesn't figure in my final 17. Only Grant does from HK unless Cook has a massive form turnaround.

So if I'm only keeping a backup HK long term, then I don't want to spend there now

Will probably be decent enough as HOK/MID cover later down the line

Only 21k down on his starting price but could be close to 50 after this week

Last week everyone traded out a Roosters forward, and he then scored 68 points off the back of 2 tries.

This week everyone wants to trade out a Roosters forward.
60+ for Cheese please

I’m trading Smith out so holders, enjoy the points.
