Probably grabbed Koula

Yeah. I have him, but if I didn't I think i'd pass given bye planning. Unless Gus makes origin then he's all good again! haha.

If we look past round 13, he plays the next two big bye rounds. Other option is Nikora to slot in for Angus but Bateman has better scoring ability. Other option is Dylan Brown. Locked in half until the second bye round but Moses could be back early as next week. Bye planning I want to be all over but need MID's and there's no decent options that play 13 worth trading in.

next minute, Teddy doesn't play origin and Manu remains at CTR...

Given he was part of the Blues' undefeated Game 3 2023 team, indeed scored two tries in that game, and that he's looking in good nick this year, you'd have to assume he's a favourite to get picked.

Short memory

I've sold to Fainu.

Those pesky Dolphins eh? Still don't own any (round 14 and all that).

Looks like planned my Turbo trade has come about 2 rounds earlier, the only decision is whether to go the whole Drink of water or hold for a week while Tago's price drops.

Excited about the results of the most uninspiring loop ever tonight (Piakura, Salmon and Cheese)

I've brought in Drinkwater. I'm ranked 30k though, so fair warning.

A element of risk involved, thinking of bringing in weekes this round.

Disregard.

Oh so Koula not a lock in for FB?

I still don't think so

Manly had already reshuffled Garrick to wing to cover Saab injury. If Garrick was going to move to fullback it would have required finding a centre AND moving Koula to the opposite wing. Much easier to just find a centre

If I was picking the team he would be. I suspect Arrow will get the bulk of the minutes at lock until they shuffle again after a few more losses

I’m leaning towards this option. Money in the bank and in the long run hopefully averages somewhere similar.

TLT should reveal all. Not overly fussed if he’s named there or not. Might be nice to save a trade

Arrow is playing through injury I heard

Haha I am no wfb whisperer
I wanted to grab Fuller then but couldnt afford him and also needed to plug holes in injuries that week to field 17. WFB wasnt red (Though I grabbed Willison so thats been ok)

Started with Galvin and got Crichton early are my only real wins but..........

My starting wfbs were Teddy,Ponga,Turbo,Rapana so probably better stop there haha

Juggling grabbing both Fainu+Matterson this week or still grabbing Fa'alogo + one of them
Next week Weekes,Drinkwater and Koula so Fa'alogo might be overkill
We will see





Should be watching this persons moves

That's interesting. Could be hope for Garrick FB yet.

Baha, I have my WWBD (What Would Booze Do) bracelet on.

Made too many dud trades to get close this year. Locked into Foran using Chan when Boyd got named, locked into Sorenson the weekend he was a late out. Had Watson in my team all week last week and then thought I'd play it safe before going out on Friday night and get Plath instead, incase Watson ended up on the bench (still think he'll outscore Plath from the bench btw).

Anyways, nice to get the annual screenshot I guess.

Up there every year, the run home is obviously in the lap of the Gods a bit in terms of luck and final position, but gets into position every year so early. Incredible.

I believe in max trading like a mofo.

So does Booze. Probably something in it, which I ignore every year
