Hoping for a big game from James.

I'm in the same boat bro. Going ok other than Barba yet 500 spots down. James definitely needs to smash it today lol

I was drawn in to a gamble on Opacic (they do say that Opacics attract! ).

With his 10, Barba's 20 and a likely zero from Munster, it's a calamity out in the WFBs. Have to get that strengthened next week. Decent AE from Su'a but annoyed that I left out Cartwright.

I am too, not because I want too, but because I don't have the luxury of having enough trades

Munster and Hughes both not playing means Aloiai and Williame become scoring players for me. Le sigh

For those bagging hunt. He is leading the nrl in try assists.

He is doing the best he can behind a forward pack that is being outplayed everyweek at the moment. Origin can not finish quick enough for the Broncos.

Im keeping him until atleast after they play the knights in rd 20

Canberra side is in.

NO Fensom.

My first week with Leilua, this will be interesting. Sorry in advance if I break him peeps.

Nice!

In regards to POD, does Ed Murphy and Toutai count?

Speaking of Toutai. Maybe everyone knows already, but I had heard nothing...
I had someone ask me about Takarangi's injury so I checked the Eels website for news. I found that Toutai injured himself last game and is out for 6 weeks.
So no points in Round 18 and no extra cash ruins all my plans.

Big fall from Grace

Maybe Fensom to the Knights? Would take over the Jeremy Smith role.

Would be a great signing for Newcastle.

I'm sure Fensom would get sick of playing for a shit team. He got a chance to play in a good side but Ricky dumps the poor guy.

No Munster, no Hughes means it's down to John Asiata for me. Oh well an extra 15-20 points is better than nothing I guess

I know Fensom was seen as a fantasy gun in terms of PPM - but how was he as an actual player? Apart from being a cult hero for Canberra was he any decent?

Where did you see that they are not playing? I can't find anything...

Just finally, are my loophole changes correct?

Your loophole is perfect mate.

Well Munster missed the Captain's Run and everyone's saying he's in severe doubt. Although maybe it's Bellamy mind games and he'll line up just fine which wouldn't surprise me. Hughes played for the Blackhawks yesterday and he'd only line up again on Monday in an emergency. Rory Kostjasyn to 5/8 is what is more likely to happen
