If I had Macca, I would be holding him as a keeper.

On the other hand, I have Smith and K.Pritchard, and I'm planning to trade Smith out to McInnes for tonight, and bring Smith back in R20 in place of K.Pritchard. I had planned to bring in Macca last week for Smith (instead of McInnes) but that plan was shelved because Macca got injured and didn't play last week.

17th man this week out of Stimson and Lamb?

Stimson's minutes are hard to predict, while Lamb could miss a bunch of tackles v Storm in Melbourne.

Hey guys. I haven't been around much lately (for health reasons), but on Monday, after lockout is over, I will set-up the usual Eliminator Results List (as I have done in prevìous seasons), so we can easily track everyone's progress.

Sorry to hear that AR. Isn't it a bummer how our real lives can get in the way of NRL fantasy.

Thanks R&T, but I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and there is no cure for it. When the symptoms are bad, I need to rest until they improve. It's relatively easy to rest physically, but it's hard to rest mentally (because it's hard to turn your brain off).

Moses is going to be pretty close to min price soon. Might use him as a cash out for bye round scoring

Hope you are feeling a bit better. Good to have you back around. Might be recording a quick first round loss for me though...

Sorry to hear AR. Hope you're doing ok. Shame the Bunnies havent been able to give us much of a lift lately...

Ah, that sounds tough mate. Does watching heaps of sport on TV count as mentally resting up? Would be nice if it did. Just trying to see the bright side, but in all seriousness rest up mate and stay as healthy as possible!

Looking forward to your Eliminator stuff if you are up to it!

All the best with what you are going through too mate. That sort of stuff is bloody tough aye!

How are people tracking after the first couple of games, Ive had a mother one of those weeks with big ups (Slater, Mannering) and big downs (SJ Smat Ma'u) + a couple in the middle (Munster and RTS). I figure they roughly balance out. All up 333/7.

Vc was on Munster though! Anyone ballzy enough to pu the C on one of the big scorers?

I'm a 145/3 manners SJ and rts. I put the vc on tedesco and the C on taupau. I still have the like of elgey still to come tho
