    Yeah when I did a ladder predictor Eels were dead last. Tigers to get a couple of wins at home puts them comfortably clear of Eels

    Funny that

    I just did a ladder predictor showing the Eels finishing 6th.

    And that was without one of their byes being added

    I am still trying to work out who the new "Hayne 09" will be. Perhaps "Guymer 24"?

    dylan lucas in 2024 has played 3 games at ctr & is averaging 56 points
    dylan lucas in 2024 has played 10 games at edge & is averaging 52 points

    conclusion-it doesn't really matter where lucas plays he will produce good scores

    Not sure, there was a hip drop like tackle but seemed small enough. Early shower would be odd though.

    I just did

    They think he appeared fine from the hip drop, but there was a tackle between that and going off where he went low and might’ve been a bit dazed

    This aligns with ABC radio saying he was on the sideline getting his jaw/head checked when he was still on but Humphreys took the conversion.

    NRL physio seemed to think he was ok based on being on the bench after - so maybe just precautionary? Like an unofficial HIA?

    agree, I've had him all year in my SC draft team and he has produced consistently.

    And played 80 for nearly the whole year apart from two interchange games. I'm strongly considering him

    There are 7 Rounds left this season.

    Chewie is only 1,089 points ahead of me in the FOG.

    This means I only need to outscore Chewie by 156 points every week between now and R27 to obtain my rightful place at the top.

    If the Eels can sneak into the 8 by winning their remaining 6 games and having a host of other results go their way, then surely there is a still a chance of me winning the FOG cheer

    Can totally happen once I've spent all my 8 extra trades by next Monday the moment the shop opens

    Unsatisfying week given high hopes of a nice move, had 638 and increased ranks slightly to 879. Ah well.

    4 on the bye this week + Latrell, Max King?, Sharpe.. yuck.

    Is jye gray actually injured or is yafss in error ?

    At a minimum, 3 trades will be made.

    2 on the bye for me if Brown to Cleary is one locked in trade (Matto and Iro)

    Even Matto might not be safe if I can get to Yeo easily.

    Yeah I feel the same, I had high hopes that playing 13 would help me gain some spots, it was looking promising until Marzhew got corked.
    It looks like I may drop 4 ranks, unless updates are kind.
    620 points was pretty much the average score

    Looks like Samuela and Galvin lost their 5 points again, down to 44 and 43. Pricks.

    Fifita up another 3 to 62. Handy couple of updates for captainers.

    DBrown +1.

    Current trades I'm looking at:
    Hynes to Cleary
    Aitken/Api to Randall

    reluctant to trade out any green dots

    Immediate reaction is.. he's gone. doesn't seem worth a hold unless there's been some updates that he might be back soon? I thought it was leaning towards 'season over'

    i only held him last week because hynes seemed the more obvious trade of the two.

    I'm imagining Trell -> Chin will be a popular one if he's named this week
