    Silly he was only priced at $200,000, as seasons start. Think expectations are 60+ straight off the bat like he was 2-3 years ago

    You are joking right?

    Look unless Smith somehow scores under 50 points for 3 rounds there is no way I would consider it considering you started with him. Either way there is all the chance he bounces back with a 75+ game the week you trade him out.

    NOFO is turning in to a top tier gun, has been improving every week since mid last year, he has gone from winger to a beast, his defence needs work on but look at the guy beside him

    I don't hate Jayne, I think everyone expects more from him, just think he gets too lazy during games and is already thinking what he wants to do next. He usually performs good after being hammered by the press

    They were ridiculously close last week, no changes to the first 17 of most teams.

    Would love if someone had the time to carve out a niche like milch with BEs or paceys with starting line ups who could be TLT experts...

    % stats of teams starting named 17 or adding 1 or 2+ non first 17 players into the squad or first 17 players into first 13

    ... and I'll come up with ideas and trash talk and leave the spreadsheets closed in my work computer

    I blame my 7week old for lack of actual initiative Laughing

    I don't think I'd trade him out next week either with a sub par score, just trying to get some conversation going here....

    No. You got Smith because you know he's a proven God. Two bad scores don't change that fact.

    Has he actually scored less than 60 2 weeks in a row? When was the last time that happened?

    The Cavs were 15-5-1 on the overs line going into last night. Needless to say shit happens!!!

    In a fantasy note, should be a big game for Smith, fingers crossed

    Well comparing the teams named on TLT last week to the actual 17 that played...

    Sharks: 1-17
    Broncos: 1-17
    Bulldogs: 1-17
    Storm: Croft (#17) Dropped. Jacks (#19) made it to the starting line up. Young T (#1) to bench, Munster (#6) Started FB
    Souths: 1-17
    Tigers: #16 + #21 Into starting Line up. #4 benched, #17 didn't make the final cut.
    Dragons: 1-17
    Panthers: 1-17
    Cowboys: #5 Gone, #21 into starting line up.
    Raiders: #1 Gone, #19 into starting Line up.
    Titans: 1-17
    Roosters 1-17
    Warriors: 1-13, #14 Dropped off bench, 15-18 played
    Knights: 1-17
    Manly: 1-17
    Eels: 1-17

    So 5/16 teams changed their 1-17.

    Guess you are right though, most teams are doing 1-17, however maybe because it was round 1, no injuries etc.


    Ha! Laughing

    See my post above as I catch up.

    Does it matter if Idris will be a slow burn? When he starts and plays 80 he will be back among the mid-elite tier CTRS

    So what's Burns' job security like? Really don't want to be wasting a trade on a dud but Pythian ain't doing anything for me

    Agree. Feels like everyone had a rough idea of the one player they wanted and how to get them, checked the teamsheets, made the trade, logged off

    Not a lot of controversy or decision making this week. Watch it blow up as soon as Seggy is in the 21 Laughing

    Lol

    Or a gun that is in everyone's squad gets injured

    Yeah I am really undecided between Moga and Burns. My brain tells me that a FB should score better and although the Rabbitohs were woeful they were still creating tries without A. Reynolds there. Hell Inglis scored while on one leg.

    Edit: Just saw Burns is on the wing. Perhaps that is enough to sway me to Moga.

    Yeah I'm going for Moga, cause you know your going to get a couple of good price rises. Burns is a wait and see, he could be a dud.

    Tough with cashie wingers, if they do a Suli and score 50 on one game you can live off the rises for about 3 weeks if they string 15-20s often not worth the trade

    Souths looked awful, but should improve

    Surely, if one has cash (like me Very Happy ) the trade is Python to Moga? Already have idris, Cotric, Kelly, Suli. Options are moga talaki burns but moga looks the goods for me. Try and talk me out of it?

    I have too many cows and not enough money to turn Daifiti into a gun.

    I just keep coming back to Matagis base stat 41 for 210k, good byes and apparent job security.

    I'm assuming he has job security, anyone know if I'm missing something?
