What is the go with the idiot on twitter following Moleys FTS predictions and attacking him at every chance?

Do people seriously have no life and need to do stuff like this? Surely everyone knows his predictions are a bit of fun and if he does get a kick back so what?? Every other person would be willing to make predictions for free money..

That person is a deadest twat

My boy Moses?
Will Brooks injury be good for him?

Fuck, forgot about Moses-28.

Brooks injured? I didn't really watch the last 15 minutes, I was listening to it but not really paying attention

Oh I just assumed after seeing his score

No brooks score is a fair indication of the impact he had on the game

Add me to the list of sorry sods scoring sub 700.
Who was the idiot that employed this pack of overpaid, underachieving slugs?
I apologise for bringing down the group ranking

Feeling reasonably happy that I went with more of a guns + cows strategy this year rather than a plethora of midrangers like last year. I decided to abandon that strategy because I was pretty lucky in avoiding all the injuries in the opening rounds and had the luxury of downgrading one failed middie and upgrading another.

As it stands, there don't seem to be many middies hitting my watchlist this year. Hess and Wallace the only notable ones so far and I doubt they'll make it to my team as they will be over/fairly priced by the time any cows are ready to go.

However, the guys that will likely make the team are the proven guns like JBrom and Whitehead, who should be grossly undervalued from Rd 5-6 onwards when the tough decisions on which cows (and perhaps a failed gun?) need to go.

After the damage this week, I'm glad I have those two trades to use on red dots rather than a couple of failed middies.

From what I've been able to gather, which is made hard when you can't watch every game and people are calling for injuries to JDB midgame (real classy), I've got potential red dots on RTS (concussion), Hayne (ankle 4+ weeks), Lamb (concussion), Talakai (dropped), Leota (dropped) and Jacks (Slater return?).

I think Lamb will be alright since he came back on. RTS stayed off so there's more chance he missed rd 3.

Both have 1 week (no short turnaround).

This scheduling with no Monday games is the absolute worse! Have a whole day after fantasy opens until team lists are announced

Gee got lucky to make 701 this week.

749 this week, bought in Moga for Feeney 2.0. Really disappointed in Moga I didn't watch his first game but was unhappy with his running and Milford's lack of confidence in him.

I was unhappy too, but little did I know he'd be the best scorer of my entire back 5...

Exactly same score here.

Not sure lucky though. Carnage really and shouldn't have taken armband off cam too

Any reason Talakai was dropped?

At this rate (without doing the math) McInnes is rising in price about as fast as Brailey.... Surely it cant keep up, but for now those who took Brailey (me included) are scoring 35 points less per week and getting no closer to the McInness upgrade.

What is JStands rank?

If McInnes (est price $514K this week) continues to score 70 he'll be priced around $625K in 5 weeks (+$110K) However, if McInnes only averages 60 he'll only be up to $565K (+50K) in 5 weeks...

If Brailey (est price $183K this week) continues to score 37 he'll be priced around $306K in 5 weeks (+120K)
