    Some dude just posted on Reddit that he is hearing strong rumours that Fifita is a late out. Probably completely false but makes captaining him a little scary, especially since I have Blore I can bring in.

    If Fifita is out I'll be relying on Terrell May getting 70 minutes again in a bye round

    Yeah, poor beggar drank himself to death.



    From the link:

    "A Swedish university conducted the same experiment in 2006, where healthy medical students in their twenties ate nothing but McDonald’s and limited exercise—but found that their outcomes were nowhere near as dangerous as Spurlock’s. At one point in the doc, Spurlock’s doctor tells him he’s “pickling” his liver, which he said resembled an “alcoholic’s after a binge.

    As it would turn out, the doctor was likely right, but that liver damage probably wasn’t just because Spurlock had been eating McDonald’s for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Over a decade later, Spurlock stunningly admitted he’d struggled with alcoholism since he was 13 years old.

    “I haven’t been sober for more than a week in 30 years,” ”

    Warriors on the bye, lots of players were rested in top 8 sides last season, especially star players.

    If Fifita is out I’ll just play with 11 and take the hit. One of the 11 would be Hughes but is what it is.

    Sam Hughes has had a few poor scores, but most weeks he is scoring over 30.

    Far worse players to have lying around
