Harris v Fifi
Carty v Whitehead
Cleary v Hunt
Croker v Mansource

but @pm888 also has Carty and Cleary as NPR's so you could choose to change that up..... fuck me that team is disgustingly stacked....

Fifi is due a sin bin I think...

Im thinking of going through with your guesses (already went hunt). not sold on whitehead, but to be honest id rather have 4 pods than 3 to keep things interesting. gotta man the fuck up after being called a vagina!

I cant tempt you to play barnett over manners by any chance? i hear he is going great, he's averaging 80 over the past week

Definitely more than one for sure. If he just gets 80 again I'll be happy with that.

Hahaha, I'll be honest when you put it that way it does sound tempting...
ps: the way Whitehead and Carty are up and down every week your probably on the winner there with Whitehead due a big game and Carty to go missing

Smith set the bar pretty high for Mannering

Trousers?

Still in?

Anyone know what the highest avg Smith has finished a season with?

Updates in Smith now has 4 tackle breaks and up to 85. Hunt down 2 to 47.

Some updates;

C.Smith 85
T.Harris 70
C.Munster 45
J.Bromwich 39

A.McCullough 53
B.Hunt 47
A.Milford 42
C.Parker 47
M.Gillett 50

Mmmm so Harris up 5 and Hunt down 2. Thats a 7 point swing to Archer!

I'll take the 7 point Munster and 9 point Smith upgrades as well for my overall (not sure how much that will change it though)

2014 Smith averaged 65.8
2015 61.5
2016 so far 66.4

The site only goes back the 2 seasons and I cbf finding other sources lol

Good thing I didnt accept the avatar bet then! Then again the outcome is the same as I said I would gladly run with Manners photo of Brom didnt score 55+

I hope McGoose took the advice of dropping JBrom for Hodgson after that 39.

Playing JRob over Opacic didn't cost me much in the end, even with Opa bagging a double.

Thank fuck Milf picked up those assists, was starting to regret playing him over Gall, but I'll take the 42 all things considered.

C on Cam and VC on Harris backing up my gun C choices heh.

Have until 3pm to reverse my final trades on Jake Trb to Fifita and Teddy to NPR Peter Mata'utia. Decisions.

I called yall a bunch of vaginas cause Archer is going to fuck you up. Trying to throw down some banter because nobody else was.

Simon Mannering is only 29. Wow captaining the Warriors for a few years took it's toll on him. It's actually his birthday tomorrow so if you captained him maybe he'll go gangbusters and rack up another 70 tackles

Does anyone know if Hayne will play this week?

At this point in time he will play but double check teamlists an hour before kickoff to be 100% sure.

I wonder how he will score now that he is my avatar. KFP curse first.

The worst thign asbout Thursday night football is I always forget to set my captain, so i have left the C on Mannering from last week.

Luckily for me my crap ranking probably won't slide too much up or down, regardless of what Mannering does (as long as he doesn't get sent off in the 2nd minute)

Glad i stuck with my gut on dropping JBrom, that slow slide hes been on just continued. 39 mighta sunk my H2H.

In the end I reversed Parker to Macca, it cost me 6 points but im happy as I have a trade left this round to cover any late outs.

And if i dont use it and get through I will have 2 trades for the final next week.
