Nice mate Named FB with CNK at CTR.

RTS out for a failed HIA and Pompey injured. Was gonna say RTS probably back next week, but they're on the bye anyway.

Yeh I'm just reaching for a win, any small win. I'll play him, bench Weekes or Gray and trade Cleary to anyone with the final alteration. Hynes for laughs ?

If the Monstars from Space Jam came to take the powers of current day NRL players who would they target and why

Liddle probably the safest bet. Cook and Robson have much more upside though.

thanks i was thinking he would be the safetst pick up, Robson was because of game 1 and off a bye but that might be being too paranoid thinking Liddle would be a late out.

Yeah I was tempted by Curran to Hynes, but 9k short. Wighton maybe

Bit risky though with Sharks not playing until later. If trading Cleary to Hynes, you'd be able to see the 24-hour cut at 7:35pm before Cleary locks at 8pm. Maybe get confirmation from Fitz that he's playing though. Little bit risky if still uncertain.

Talk about a low bar.

Cleary - he's the games best player, he's your Charles Barkley.
Cook - he's your zippy little go getter, Mugsy Bouges.
NAS - he's your brute, Patrick Ewing type.
Dom Young - most acrobatic player in the comp, he'll be Larry Johnson
Fifita - he's your oaf, Shawn Bradley type.

I thought about this for too long.

Talking about food, I've been watching a bit of "Alone Australia" and it's interesting to see how people react to going without food for a while, and how their morale gets a boost when they finally catch something edible

Can just afford Strange to Hynes so I'll do that for my last trade if Hynes ends up playing. Raiders thankfully play last. Might squeeze back into the top 500 if Hynes can pump out two bangers?

What a shit year

Danny Levi - The man must have powers of hypnosis or some other super power.
Stephen Chrichton -  feel like the ability to escape sin bins is a pretty good one to have in the modern day game
Reece Walsh - Look at those eyes, also the man can win a game by only playing 7 minutes of it.
JAC - the fastest man on the planet of all time, as long as you're a channel nein commentator.

Edit: Could probably make an argument for someone like an unmotivated Trell having the power of invisibility for a lot of the game, but then I feel a bit bad given he's out atm and the season he had, plus he was far from that in origin which still stings. I'm sure there is someone else that fits but is so invisible I cant even see them in my minds eye.

Got 15 so that’ll be the last 2 trades gone then

Strange and Uto gives me about 1.25m, or Galvin and Strange/Uto is about 1.45m

17 Green dots with Plath, Shoes and Hands. 2 trades but would like to keep one. McLean or KPP out. Would love to get some info if KPP is a chance next week.

19 green dots once Murray turns red, and if Plath stays green.

Watson on bench not ideal especially when Roosters play last, could be anything from moving into the starting side to playing 30 off the bench, get the feeling Robbo will want to be careful with him leading into finals.

Starling playing last also not ideal having no idea what Ricky has planned this week.

I have exactly 17. If Koloa, Barnett, Fifi, Edwards, Hammer and I guess Cook could all return to previous high scoring instead that would be super appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Man, you have trades left and are in touching distance of the top 500, what a horrible year it must have been for you.

The more I look at it, I'm changing my mind. I reckon Murray gets the downgrade.

Agree except I'd swap Jye Gray for Cook. Guy is even smaller than Muggsy. And Dom for Lomax, nobody better in the air than Lomax

I have 20 green dots but most of my players are very good at scoring low 30s so
