Cartwright taking a page out of Aubo's book. Have a promising 1st half then do nothing in the 2nd half

+1 to that, everything I do to fix my team this year, no matter how carefully planned or heavily researched, seems to just make it worse.

How does Merrins score keep changing so much.  Every once and a while I see a -3 etc
Seems they are making ghost adjustments on the fly and not the positive kind

Tell me about it! I drop several players in a draft game as they were scoring like shit then some nuffies come along and pick them up then they start performing again

Should have played Bowen over Gutherson. Oops.

Pity Gutherson couldn't get in on the "destroy Canberra action

Well night all, hoping for some nice updates tomorrow

Edited : double up

Hoping for some mass downdates to Merrin.

Fuck you Merrin

So who else is struggling this week or is just me? 10 of my players have played and Hastings is the only one to have crossed the 50+ mark.

Actually Bowen isn't a centre. Could have played him over Mansour though.

401/10 so far. Fifita (c) amongst those remaining

Who is this cunt impersonating Merrin tonight? Not the player i saw in the first 5 rounds

Yeah feel your pain - I'm on 427 from 11 (no C yet) also with only Hastings 50+. 4 players on 29 points or under....Warriors Manly game are responsible for 3 of those

Was that a shoulder charge from Merrin in the second half? Certainly his shoulder made first contact but his arm came up late which might save him.

Night mate, beauty of being in Perth is I get to see most updates before bed.

The angles I saw were both from a bit of a distance. Will be touch and go but hopefully not, it's been the best round of footy in ages as far as hits and good tackles goes.

Anybody know what happened to Peachey? Hopefully he is back next week to cut into Merrins mins.

I shouldn't of traded Cartwright (though it was for JDB, so I am not entirely disappointed), but my real stroke of genius was haphazardly holding Merrin even though I had no real pressing trades. I was prepared for his 40's. He may well save my round

I feel ya

Threw cartright out 2 weeks ago, he pulls out 77 and 49. Sack merrin now and he goes bang with a 77. I feel like hanging my team on the end of a piece of rope.

Im watching the EPL, see how that fantasy team goes. White Lightning leading that one.
