5 tries in 5 games is hard to predict (even optimistically) but buying Mam $150k ago would have been nice.

Probably depends which foot Moses broke. If it was his left, can't see a problem, if it was his right then maybe, though if he's fit enough to play he should be fit enough to kick.

Oh damn finishing up the Eels Broncos mini, jeez Talagi could have had a massive score! 57 is already miles above what I expected, but his disallowed try for obstruction would have taken him to about 75, and the ball he dropped right on the try line at the end, had he scored could have bumped him to the high 80s.

i was impressed by his very solid defense he's a solid build & hits hard.

Really not sure how to feel about it when stats clearly aren't being awarded despite being blatant. Kinda makes the whole thing feel significantly more about luck than in the past. Maybe it's always been this way, but I don't remember a season where stats felt so hit or miss.
Note: Not a Salmon owner.
Yeah he also 100% had one last week clear as day. They even awarded it live then took it away a little later then he never got it back.
I still have the theory they just got cheap labour in and gave them minimal training. Stats have been all over the shop this year.
I just find it weird this is the offical stat provider for the nrl as well didn’t think they’d cut corners s willy nilly

It was a baptism of fire for the kid, was heavily targeted by the broncos, made some mistakes, but also came up with some great defensive and attacking plays.

Since Schieder was injured last night and is out for a few weeks it’s hard to look past Cole.
Scored 24 in a half just tackling and kicking and is $230k

Salmon got last week's TB back and the OFG changed to OFH when he updated from mid 20s to 35 before lockout lifted.
Pretty sure Matto had an OFG early last night during a 5th tackle fuck-up though, just while we're noting possible missed stats

Its not a theory. Its literally a casual job on basically min wage.

Madness having your marquee player (walsh) taking kick off's with the injuries coming out of it. One of the cheaper players can be trained to do that.

I thought Talagi was outstanding IRL at FB last night. Butchered a few tries but he was the one who instigated them. He was heavily targeted and just kept showing up. Totally different player at FB

Ah right well.. there’s hope he’ll get this one again on Sunday

Replacing RTS. Want to maintain reserve Centre option.
Which one would you grab?
TU - Ramien (Sharks miss 16 & 20)
TD - Sualli (Roosters miss 14 & 19)
Cheers.
Ramian could be a chance of Origin.. seen a few articles also

I'm trading Cleary to him
- MIDs are awful this year
- I had already planned to hold an origin player in that slot
- I have more cash than I know what to do with
Same situation, but looking at Yeo for rock solid reliability (he'll get injured next week now).
Always interested in your thoughts, and curious about if/why you have a preference for Haas over Yeo?
Big fan of Haas; started the year with him and intended to hold him all year but the injury broke that. Then the "scare" that he might be out again a couple of weeks ago kind of put me off again. Thinking that the more boring choice in Yeo probably just "safer?"

How bad is Schnieder injury? Cole could be very interesting indeed.

Should at least find out re cheese by 2pm today
I ended up holding off the matto trade but if Cheese is out i'll also get Piakura's score. I've got J Hughes and Gray as potential last minute trade out options

A bit of a shorter preview today as I’m limited for time.
So Game Day is upon us as we take on the Dragons later today at 5:30pm. It’s always been a strong rivalry against a traditional rival. I know quite a lot of Dragons fans so I won’t hear the end of it if we lose. The Dragons are a much better side this year so this is a very hard one. It looks to be quite wet so we will have to limit the errors and match them in the middle as best we can. Yes we are depleted but that gives opportunities to others who need to step up. Good luck to Dion, Frenchy today and Gehmat filling in due to our injury crisis. Cody game 200 we are all proud of you mate go get it today and have a big one. And Trell welcome back you owe us big time mate. I’ll be at work with one eye on it but I’ll watch it back when I get home late whether we win or lose. Cmon boys dig deep and do us proud.
OK ALL RABBITOHS MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS AT 5:28PM ON YA FEET LETS GO RABBITOHS GLORY GLORY LETS GO AND GET THESE DRAGONS!!

Cole seems interesting. Is he similar to Schneider and SOS in that he can come in, do bulk kicking, run the occasional play, but mostly just get the boys around the park? Or is he more like Sam Walker or Mam in that he is super active? Never seen him play.
Also for those wondering, Luai is just as average with or without Cleary. 40 with Cleary, 42 without. No big gain in jumping on him.
