Why trade Drinkwater?

Tulagi is my WFB coverage

So? Just play him next week.

Yeah vs Broncos, Talagi's almost captain material.

Career-high 57 was against them incidentally.

Played FB in that game from memory but I wouldn't trade a keeper WFB just to avoid playing him.

Maybe loop him with Drinky and then trade if he happens to score 2 again.

Yeah Talagi was playing FB then, just being a bit hyperbolic, but would definitely be holding/looping Talagi instead of trading the Drink.

919 for the round, lost 12 spots, 3rd red arrow in a row
In positive news, I gained ground in the Eels League, only 75 points behind 1st place

Prospect of both Galvin & Hughes out rd 26 is not good.

I got 862 seems well under par horror year continues down 700 ranks to 6.1k. C Cleary, Tapine, Starling, Curran, Mahoney, Dylbags all stinking it up. Didn’t have a Cook, McInnes, Keaon or AFB or Kiraz type in my side either.

Hope Curran is ok. 2 trades left Cleary the obvious out. 

Thinking I might say fuck it and go a pod captain next week and put the C on Teddy against the Titans who leak through the middle like a sieve.

What I need to do is turn my focus harder onto mixer where I have finished the week again ranked 8th overall after 4 weeks with 7 weeks of it left.

Updates got me to 1012, with a round rank of 669, mostly thanks to McInnes being an absolute legend.

Nice for the Eels league mate Always a chance of putting a hundo on someone in any given round, so well within striking distance.

Top of the FOG heating up. Still think the Hoff is gonna be hard to hold off with his 5 trades remaining, but some strong contenders closing the gap.

In before Monday morning updates screw me - a nice, round 1,000 for the round

Up to 1,578th overall. It's been a long, steady climb, but hoping to reach the YAFSS zone by the end of the season.

870

Lost nearly 100 ranks to 265 this week. Had Watson, otherwise nobody did that bad, but nobody did that good either

As predicted here, 1st in FOG was due to having early players and finished at 4th

Ended up with some extra points to get to 906 which means only lost about 75 spots and a 9 feels nicer than an 8. Might have to blow a couple o trades on some poddy mcpodpods next week…..Luke Brooks anyone

Can we have a moment of silence for the death of the charge in the eliminator.

Congrats to ET who I now crown the 2024 eliminator champ.

This is very clearly the beginning of The End Times.

Yeah you've gotta have around 60 points per extra player played before waving the Top of the FOG flag mid-round. Those are the rules, I didn't write them. Actually I did, but feel like I'm the supreme authority on the matter right now anyway.

Think he means Murray Taulagi not Blaise Talagi, maybe

I thought he meant Kelma at first, but realised he's not a WFB.

It is Blaize though. Also have Faataape to loop with.

Yep, use the trade elsewhere (unless there's heaps o trades)

Plan this week is Cleary to anyone. Pretty fixed on that. It’ll be the 5th trade used on the chin
