HomeIn my h2h my mate has Mansour left & he has to score 90 to beat me. Normally I'd be sitting pretty but in Mansour's last 4 games he has scored 2*90 scores. Roosters have been playing well lately so hopefully they can contain Mansour.

I was really impressed by the Warriors & this was their most impressive performance thus far. They defended their line with commitment & effort. They had good line speed in defense & the 2 intercept tries was a result of this. Playing the Titans away & winning was a massive result considering the form of the Titans & the boost they had with Hayne debuting. The only negative was the easy turnovers re losing the ball in the tackle/poor carries. This has been a long-term problem for the Warriors & something they really need to address. Atm the 2 unsung heroes for the Warriors are Leuluai & Lisone. Leuluai for his guile, experience & direction. Lisone for his impact coming off the bench with his hit ups being very strong.

Yep. FWIW I thought Manu should of been our MOTM, had some big runs coming out of our own end, however I am a big Manu fan so maybe some Bias there. Tbh, we could potentially of been top 4 right now. We lost by 1 to the Sharks, Raiders, Manly, all away from home (?). Ok we lost to a try against the Raiders but still Golden Point. This Titans game was such a big win, if we lost I don't think we could of made it into the top 8, but now, it's completely up to the players. It's there for the taking that's for sure. Titans did have 2 less days to turn around and play us though, but we were without Luke, so kind of balances out? Also Tui can't really kick so there was extra point's there we could of got lol.

People don't seem to realise how much pressure Tommy takes off Johnson.
No coincidence that our winning percentage is much higher when he's been in the team this year.
Missed the game yesterday so can't comment on how anyone actually went but heard Johnson had a monster game.

Also the Warriors back line has looked 100 times more potent since Fusitua has gone to centre & Lolohea f/b. I know Ayshford is on the bench just in case SJ's injury flares up & that's ok but I'd much rather have another forward there.

I would think the panthers would fired up, playing at home and for a position in the 8. Tigers, warriors and titans all competing for 2 spots and finding form means these matches against the bottom of the table teams are must wins.

Looking at adding another gun for the run home....
Merrin, RJames, Bodene, SJ, JT, Munster, or Hayne?

Which player do you like the most? The answer to that question is the one you should pick. I mean can't go wrong with any of them except maybe Hayne if he continues to play off the bench. First 3 names you mentioned are all good for 55+ week on average, the next 2 are the premium halves to have. JT had an off day but that was just the Tigers hoodoo he has he'll get back to his best. Munster well he's just the best WFB out.

Merrin seems like the most consistent lately. But is there a standout net point gain option for your team?

At this time of the fantasy season Merrin goes great. That's my forward choice & my first choice.
For the backs it has to be SJ & that's my second choice.
