Tempted by him or Simpkin

Updates on Lachlan Croker are pretty vague, so I can see Simpkin starting for a while too.

I mean, they brought Simpkin for a reason I guess. Kinda like him too. Playing next week helps. I wonder how many minutes Lawton or Hopa takes off him.

Kenty got a 2 year good behaviour bond with no conviction recorded for his street brawl

Tempted to grab 2 final team keepers/origin players in Yeo and Murray but will probably just make the smart trade of Weekes to Fifita and hold KPP until 20

Anyone else ended up loaded up with CTR/WFBs and no EDG/MID depth?

Could they be any less specific?

Also reported that he has been fired by both Fox Sports and by Daily Telegraph

How many bye players are people expecting to have post 20 in their final teams, for me

R21: Ponga, KPP (may sell KPP if not starting)
R22: Garrick, maybe Koula as expensive cashout. Likely target Olakau’atu after last bye 
R23: Watson
R24: Jensen 
R25: None (Cowboys)
R26: Galvin, Fainu (may well sell one if I have trades?)
R27: None (Warriors)

R21: Gagai, Marzhew (probably have to go no Ponga for this reason)
R22: Garrick, Koula
R23: Teddy
R24: Patty
R25: Cotter (possibly becomes a Yeo/Haas anyway)
R26: Fainu
R27: None (Warriors)

What’s the problem, I’m genuinely unsure?

Make some trades dude.

Can't take them to the grave with you.

I think that reason was "Lachlan Croker has a long term injury" - so won't be super surprising if Croker gets his spot back when fit.

But if buying Simpkin the hope is that is still many weeks away

Starling always seems to have a short run as starter every year but eventually gets dropped to the bench again a short time later

If he is dismissed by Newscorp.in Aust, kinda limits his job opportunities in broadcast journalism, might become uber driver

I’d expect Starling to give you points for rest of year vs Simpkin probably a red dot once Croker returns

Thinking the same. 1 trade leaves me with 3. Looping hands and sharpe doesn't look pretty though.

Only correlation I can make with Sipley poor scores this season are 2 games when Lodge played which is not much correlation at all. Without lodge he has 2 sub 20 scores but one was injury related

Do you think all the crime from this sport is from CTE?

Alright lads I hear ya

Sat here for the last 20 minutes writing a reply.

In the end it probably doesn’t matter, so will leave it

So how many trades do you have for the forum to be imploring you to use some? (I forgot how you check using MTB's site)
