With yours truly or one of the avatar bet hungry lads on here ? It would have to be a decent wager, not just 'bet he scores shit' type stuff.

Mighty Fishes wrote:One more to do next week then i'll have my final team

Smith,
Graham, Jbrom, Fifita
Mannering, Thompson, Surgess, Gallen, JTurbo
Hunt, Johnson, Milf
Roberts, Croker
Munster, Teddy, Babra

Macca will be my 18th man

I like this team. Very solid forward pack. You'll ride the fantasy wave with milf and barba but when they go big your team will go big.

Im stuck with taupau, sst and e taylor all with questionable minutes moving forward

I think I'm sticking solid with cashing Milford out. Anyone holding him can thank me next week.

This decision isn't easy. Think I can find better value somewhere than Barba, only scores well when on the score sheet. You guys can thank me all when this backfires

Sharkies win I run with the Sharks logo for a week. Panthers win you run with the Broncos logo for a week (or a pic of Tyson Frizell in his budgie snugglers)

I meant budgie smugglers but they do keep everything nice and snug.

Haha great Mitchell is in the same boat.now i have no idea what to do

It's unfortunate that Barba and Mitchell are playing this week. I'd probably go both of those over Milford but the matter of fact who is playing this week and who isn't tips it over the edge, unfortunately.

My work mates blamed me as I got Milford as soon as they turned to shit. They cheered yesterday when we were chatting and I told them I'm cashing him out haha. I know I should probably keep as he will repay the faith, but even though the Broncos will bounce back, I don't think Milf's form will be as electric as it was at the start of the season.

I have Milf, Barba and Mitchell and have no idea what to do, what usually happens is I give them another week, so here we go

To be honest, all three could get the chop. I've said the exact same thing about Milford since the first week I got him and he bombed, not doing it anymore. Did it with Mansour and Gordon too ffs, but that's the way the game falls. The cash I get from Milford lets me get two gun forwards next week so I see that as more of a positive and step forward.

Atm I'm looking for a cash out for Holland who plays the next two rounds but don't think any exist.

Thought Manu looked good in his first appearance so am thinking he comes in for one of Holland, Barba or Mitchell

I'm also perplexed at how some fullbacks are good and rack up points and some struggle, don't they have the same job lol

That's who I went for Milford. I don't see any cheapie that's gonna play both weeks either. Can anyone?

My 2c on stuff.

Barba is setting himself up to lose cash. Chop him first. Chop him now.
Holland if hes not playing needs to be cashed but at least sitting out wont cost you money. Can anyone afford to go Holland - Dugan? Dugan looks kinda cheap and is good to go as of next round.
Mitchell is the last one I'd chop.

If I was a Milford owner, I'd be optimistic about the fact Origin and bye disruptions are almost over. You've ridden him this far, you've lost all your tin already..

The only other consideration is if you have 3 HLF's, get rid of Milf if hes your worst (say you also have Cleary and SJ) who the hell needs 3 HLF's when you could have 4 reliable FRF, 2RF players at 50 points week in week out??

Have tentatively gone Holland to Manu and Barba to Pearce so hoping for an entertainingly open game from the Roosters and Eels. Yet again though I feel like I have left my team with too many players that will end up outside the 17 for the week that have the ability to contribute

These are my two so that's the reason I'm trading Milf, and upgrade to 2 gun forwards next week. Plus if Carty gets DPP, that's another option right there.
