Has Bunt almost become a must have?

Is anyone getting rid of Mitchell this week? I don't know whether or not to hold him with his BE of 26 and Pearce coming back.

I'm tossing up a downgrade of either Mitchell, Gordon, Fergo or Mansour. I think Mitchell could actually improve though with Peace returning.

Whats your team like? You must have a pretty clean bill of health to consider doing that...

Chances Radradra gets selected for the Blues?

I am definitely holding Mitchell
(even worse, with Mannering out I have to play him!)
But I would like to see how he does with Pearce, Cordner and JWH all back.
A fullback like Mitchell needs his forwards to create him some space, which is why GI has been poor of late. I think he will pick up on what has already been a pretty par performance.
Last weeks shocker was a full 15 points below any other score he posted at FB.
Roosters up against the knights, very achievable BE.
You blokes are crazy

Don't ask me how, but I've heard he's ineligible for origin despite being eligible for Aus... otherwise I'd tip him to be picked

You must mean Hastings ?

Ive managed to avoid nearly every injury this year. Benry and Segeyaro are the only two that I got stung with so far. Im downgrading PatMat to Lamb pending final team lists but everyone else is either a keeper, there for byes or an unripe cow, Ill post below:

Peats, Parcell
Graham, McGuire, BLaw, Ese'ese
Surgess, JdB, Fensom, Whitehead, Taupau, Saifiti
Johson, Hunt, Hastings, Feeney
Holland, CLaw, PatMat, Avua'a
Mansour, Barba, Mitchell, Kennar, ChaMat

150k in bank.

Saifiti will lose a little money this week which Im willing to cop to strengthen my backline. If I did it would be to Tedesco or Munster.

EDIT: Downgrading PatMat AND Saifiti to Lamb and Bhana would give me 355k in the bank. Better?

How many Eels players are people aiming to get for byes? I am trying to limit myself to 4, just seems if I get more than that I can't field 17 in rounds 13,16.

I'm considering trading the Sharks 17 gradually into my team, it would have it's high's n low's that's for certain. I'm going bonkers with fantasy this year, red dots like measles, just fielding a 17, burning trades like a raging roid !

I wanted to keep Gordon around for the byes, but I think he just has to go.

Well Pearce and JWH improves their attacking potential but also means Mitchell might not hog the ball as much though. I think it's a premature to sell him before anyone has even seen how he goes with a full strength team behind him. Good bye coverage too.

Correct. 
Origin has harsher eligibility rules than test matches, unless you want to play for Queensland, then it's open slather.

Johnson to FB?

Does everyone think matt parcell will play this week? Surely Tom turbo and Brett Stewart aren't playing.. I'm think late change with Api to the halves and walker to the backline somewhere. Maybe ash Taylor might be a late inclusion too?

TTurbo + B Stewart aren't playing.

Parcell will play.

I was thinking Brown to centres Lyon to 5/8th Walker to fullback and Tony Satini to wing
