Suspect its just hopium and I should reverse the trade-in, but WFB stocks are dire

Other than Leniu, Angus and at times Olakau'atu the Blues really lacked punch through the middle, surely they note a need for change there?

the most interesting part of the game was the first ~20 mins of the second half when nsw were having a good dig. i found myself wanting them to score a couple more tries.

obviously they ran out of gas late in the game and it got boring but thats going to happen when you're a man short.

Ah shit, forgot a captain!

Watson's back in R15, which probably isn't enough to make the team.

Does that mean Burton becomes 14 to cover more positions/play late game lock?

That would mean either Ramien or Latrell coming in


Edit: presuming Murray back, then Young out for him.


On form Martin shouldn't make the team, but selectors love him for some reason.

I think I'll stick with grabbing Latrell. I didnt get him in round 10 because I thought he'd play origin.

Reckon Madge puts Burton to centre.

All this said there is plenty of time for injuries before origin 2.

If only Hughes had scored 12 instead of 10!

Hynes to Latrell on then, but legit think Hynes will score 113 in R19 when dumped from Origin and I'm a week short olf getting 8 new trades

Think that is a pretty cynical take on it. Not sure many players would actually be willing to be that much of a thug, or risk taking themselves out of the contest.

Also big games like origin and finals etc, you wouldnt think too many spuds are playing, so what coach would suggest any of his players do that either?

That situation has not materialised since union implemented it, and it has made the loss of a player to a red much less influencial from a spectator perspective

I'm plotting a way to get him back then......it does not look easy

Although how the fuck is Kiraz nearly $700k? had him since the start & have been happy to just leave him there so haven't really paid attention to his price
