Anyone having a punt on Wighton. Should be busy tonight as the senior half with no Walker?

Wighton will be an easy in for me post round 13. Should be a keeper centre playing in the halves at a significant discount

That’s the hope. With only 16 players due to Matto I have to take a punt on someone so will probably go early and my numbers for next week are pretty good

Thoughts on Cookie? No chance of origin?

No chance in my mind. I've got BBrailey ahead of him at this stage.

If I needed a hooker I don't mind a punt on Cook. If I just needed a warm body, I'd grab Wighton first this week and assess Cook in 14.

Don't approve of the downdate to 47 of my possible captain overnight.

Sorenson will miss Rd 16 and 19. I was thinking about trading him in but 13 isn’t really a problem whereas 16 and 19 certainly are!

I agree. Sorensen doesn’t feel like a good long term play atm hey

Just a warm body needed. Wighton should score well next to the youngster this week anyway.
Could kick for 500m and probably score against the Eels

Is Angus out a new rumour?

There was tweet couple of days ago from woman I've never heard of before saying trained but not 100%. I'm sure we would've heard more by now

Would have been interested in Mitchell had he not backflipped on his decision to play origin.

Would make my origin team but seems down the pecking order in the media

i was going to do chan to atkinson last night but passed as i didn't think he'd go that well v the panthers & being the less dominant half & feed off the hynes scraps...if hynes is out i'll get hughes' score which is shite lol.

Yeah seems playing for a bottom 2 team is counting against him.

Wighton it is and hope he can score a nice little 40, which is pretty good in my team

Just noticed the guy in 51st at the start of the round has 22 trades left

Has AFB been ruled out this weekend? Still a green dot?

Based on team lists not updated. CHT in reserves but will play 6

I Hate him

Are you looking at that on MTBs site? Cause it included the 8 you get a bit later. Cause apparently I have 18 left despite having 10

Pretty happy so far with 330/6. Averaging of 55 across all my players so far even with Shoes' dragging it down with his 22. My POD-ish players in Kiraz (33% in top 1000), Ming, and Robson all firing is great. Galvin great too, but somewhat irrelevant given is nearly complete omnipresence in teams. Garrick ended up a lot better than it was looking like.

I was looking at him too but this is a good point.

I need an edge and my procrastination has left me with shit options.  Will be easy to get an edge next week so now thinking going someone like Fermor or Koala even.  or take a punt on Carty.......

edit: Far out, Eels miss 16 too.
