Had eye on him but on bench not exactly appetising 

Chee Kam kinda interesting with CTR DPP assuming Arrow surgery is set to happen after this week as suggested

It seems his usefulness has come to an end with the troops back on deck this week and no game next week. Pleasantly surprised he made it to the 700ks and can now be moved on.

Don't want to play Hands in my 17. If I sell Hands need HOK or MID this week. Hands to Simpkin gives me HOK who looks like decent 30 base priced at 22 and 88k more itb. Can fill 19. Croker is still long term out right?

Kinda keen on May/Faalogo to Ponga/Pryce and hoping Ponga doesn’t play Origin

Fills 2 of the 3 WFB spots for 19 if things go well

Faalago probably starts this week at FB vs Tigers. Still not feeling the Pryce hype

Probably get better scoring from Starling.

Huh? Where have you spotted that news?

Good point but trusting Ricky is gross. Been on Raiders forum a few times this season and they don't rate him but that means nothing for fantasy I guess

Also plays last game so if sell Hands and late switch...

 Tweets before TLT that Papy injections not working and may not play

Manly says this about Croker
"Lachlan Croker continues to progress in team training following an associated neck injury from the original concussion"

Not very helpful. Both Simpkin and Starling are cheap, with decent short term scoring but potential to be dropped from the team. R19 not really a factor as also bringing in Cook

Alex Johnston another option, with better job security, and more use in R19

JMK 2 broke metatarsal, not lisfranc as feared

Still typical recovery of 8-10 weeks tho

Anyone got any guesses as to why this Tago chap is getting a start over Harper? Or even Asi?

Bit reckless to assume he can hold the spot until Sivo returns, and ah, fukkit, just realised he's another Eel for the Eel/Shark/Dragons bye... but still, it'd be spectacularly foolish to assume the position is secure, amirite?

Sivo injured so you'd think straight back in, Harper and Asi pretty average so maybe giving a young guy a go.

I've picked him up because he's a useful red dot if he doesn't play and basement price to help get the rest of the team in.

Traded Liddle out after his Round 8 score of 12. Since then, his lowest score has been 49. I've been cursed by that trade ever since.

Liddle > Jolliffe (2 weeks until injured)
Jolliffe > Sele (Injured immediately)

Season has been totally cooked with no chance of redemption.

Not a good round for me last round rank out from 6736 to 8094 only got a 720. JMK injury so annoying, 
Dylbags, Drinky, Hands and new trade in Api underwhelming. I played with 16 last week. Now to figure out what to do with JMK. I think I want a gun maybe a mid I’ll have to think about it more. Grant being out again is a kick in the guts this week too. Only 3 trades left so think I just want to make 1.

3 Originals left for me

Mahoney - Easily the best pick of the hookers this year. Made a chunk of cash and gave keeper level scores the whole way
Cotter - Same as Mahoney another cut price keeper.
Russell - Has been handy WFB/CTR coverage while giving a few sub 20 scores when needed in an emergency

Haas and Moses were both in at the start and have come back, Cleary will be joining them

Started with Liddle as a POD and sold same week for... Lussick. Worst trade of season by a mile

Why Sipley only 16 mins starting prop Rd 15? Did Garrick double HIA mess up rotations?

Injured, was in doubt but able to back up in 16
