I shouldn't have picked a Queenslander...

Hey guys does anyone have a b/e for gordon? I need an increase of a few thousand from him to fund teddesco next week, but if its too high may have to look at other options. Cheers

Meanwhile... with a number of fantasy guns out of the picture after origin

let's reverse some trades and get back to the drawing board

Break even is 37.

I just saw the match centre for last nights Origin and noticed they have tried scoring it but the scores are all over the place

Dugan broken jaw

As long as G-Train doesn't increase in price by more than 8k I can do Norman to JT and ET to Gal next week. Leaves me fairly set for the season in terms of planned trades. By my thinking he needs to score less than 65 for that to happen. Reckon its a decent chance

fucking Glass Dugan!

That moment when Woods misses the huddle...

Has anyone got 100% confirmation that Dugan has a broken jaw? Can't seem to find any info anywhere.

St George Illawarra Dragons fullback Josh Dugan will undergo surgery to his jaw and will be sidelined for at least four-to-six weeks.

The NSW Blues representative previously underwent scans which indicated a fractured left jaw and the requirement for surgery after consultation with Club medical staff.

Is anyone holding Norman at this stage ?

I have BCart so could potentially sub him into the halves and bring in anyone of Gal, Manners, Podene etc etc

This round is going to be painful :-(

Cheers @zorasdomain! Champion.

Thurston is an interesting choice, he has had too many mediocre scores this year for an elite hlf, yet last season he averaged a whopping 60 from round 19 onwards. With the Cowboys making their run to the finals and 4 home games he could be a good choice. Alternatively there is Pearce who's scoring well and is somewhat of a POD.

I think hes worth holding for a bit just to see how things pan out. Hes scoring well and you would be kicking yourself if you traded him and he came back in a week or 2.

One of the greatest Origin moments EVER!

Somebody photoshop him iceskating or synchronized swimming or something

Ok, in the wash up of SOO, it appears my team has copped a wee bit of a battering. Looking for a little bit of advice on whether just to wear the loss this week or make some trades. Team below followed by possible changes.

Smith Lichaa
James JBrom Graham
Parker Whitehead ET Cartwright Surgess 130k (NPR)
Johnson Norman Pearce
Croker Dugan Gutherson MCK
Barba Norman Teddy Bowen Hughes

Obviously going to be rather thin this week what with the bye players out and now injuries. My original plan to cover this was to trade Bowen out for CTR keeper via DPP Dugan and then to bring Fifita or Gallen in (looking to have both for the run home though not sure who to trade so's not to trade too sideways). Obvs with Dugan now gone along with Norman that leaves me in a bit of a pickle.

What do you lads think is the best way to go. Obvs thinking to trade Dugan out now and probably still move on Bowen. That'll at least give me a starting 13 for the week and means that I can wait and see on Norman. Otherwise I can trade Dugan and Norman... Either way I'll only field 13 this week.

Parker confirmed out this week. Took the early guilty plea

I take it I can reverse my Fifita trade for this week.
