My npr's are Gutherson & red dots.

To get Gutherson's a.e, I just might use 1 trade this week D. Saifiti to Asiata (who isn't playing & is 18th man) to get Gutherson's a.e. It's like a loophole but better. Thoughts.

It is a trade to get points. If so is it really worth it? Would you be doing that trade aside from points?

If the only reason you are doing it for the points I would say not bother.

Any Taylor news yet? Gotta play him or Hastings.

Thanks SI & Random. I still might do it as next week it's allows an upgrade from Macca to Peats with 1 trade so it is beneficial.

And if Asiata plays you have shot yourself in the foot.

This will be a massive lol. I will be trying to get late mail to ensure this doesn't happen. If he's going to play I won't do it & will trade in P. Kaufusi instead.

Any news of whether hastings will play?

Curtis Scott has trained with the full Storm squad yesterday and will train again today. With Young and Koro in doubt he may be a late inclusion but he'll definitely be back to first grade fitness after the rep round so if you bought him like I did he's on the comeback trail from injury ahead of schedule.

Arghhh having Gordon in my playing squad whilst Gutherson is in my NPR's hurts too much to look at.

Eels v Bulldogs changes:

Gutherson +25 points after updates Wtf

How do Prozone miss 25 points during the game? 1 try save and 5 kick diffuses don't equal 25 points. Like Inglis the other night, he had 2 kick diffuses but updated in double figures.

I've got my eye on him in a few weeks when I downgrade HHunt/Taylor (DPP)...with scores of 22 and 1 it's not a deal breaker for me if he plays this week. If he stays in the team he'll make some decent coin over the next few months

Hope Scott plays. Should keep Harris out of the CTRs

I reckon Asiata will play but like you say check an hour before. Might even get more minutes but with b/e of 25 hopefully doesn't go up in value, thinking of him as my cashout for Aubbs

Matulino,mannering, teddy... so tempting to trade rage for the fun gun factor...

Gordon to Munster next week

Brad Arthur just said on triple M that Gordon has a cork and will be fine for next round.

Has SI weighed in on Tedesco's broken shoulder blade yet?

Gotta be almost season ending you think? Poor guy, even as QLD fan was hoping he'd get picked as the NSW fullback

Any updates on when C. Scott will return?

Gutherson is just a one round wonder at the moment, but has great potential as a fullback!
