    What about going Elgey to Hampton this week, and keeping Brailey, then if Hampton looks like he's going to be reasonable go Brailey to a gun half (moving Hampton up to Hooker)? His DPP makes him a very attractive option especially with trades leading up to the bye rounds.

    Thoughts on this team if I trade Hess for taumalolo and Brailey for Luke.

    Smith Luke
    McGuire Wallace F Kaufusi Ese ese
    JDB Surgess Taumalolo Aubusson Yates Winterstein
    SJ Lamb Jacks Elgey
    Idris Kelly Suli Fuimiano

    He is a good tackler & doesn't hold back.

    Somebody mentioned Crichton...

    As a Crichton owner myself, I would stay away. He misses a ton of tackles. He is lucky he crabbed across the field to palm off 5 guys to add 15 points to his total. Im actually wanting to sell him, but he looks to be a slow burner and plays round 12 so whatever, I'll keep him.


    Also this question is bound to get asked this week lots.. "Is it too late too bring in TPG?"

    Answer: No

    He's had far too many concussion assessments and it's becoming a problem for him. That's enough for mine. Take the year off, rest up. Let's focus on his health rather than getting him back onto the park. It's not a story that ends well if he keeps playing on.

    Agree big time, well said.

    Can anyone figure out the reasoning for the Bunnies to start Turner in the frf. Seems an odd selection. Surgess probably plays there anyway.

    Hasn't Michael Morgan been used at Hooker previously?
    I can see him resting Hampton if he needs a spell, Coote to 5/8 and Ponga to fullback.
    Hampton is a good cash out for Elgey, and the option of switching to hooker for Brailey down the track.

    Souths have 3 front rowers in the 14-17, plus Gurgess and Surgess.
    I doubt that Turner plays there.

    Thinking my trades this week will be Elgey>Hampton & Yates>Surgess

    The extra gun 2rf makes me feel a lot better about my side:

    Smith, Brailey
    McGuire, Wallace, Faufusi, Musgrove
    Gallen, Mannering, Surgess, Sironen, CHN, Stone
    Norman, Lamb, Jacks, Hampton
    Sione, Cotric, Suli, Kelly
    RTS, Semi, Slater, Abbey, TRD

    I can see him continuing to take more minutes off Brailey and eventually Brailey won't be in the team. Basketball

    Yates to CHN seems like a goer.

    Cook is such a gamble now.

    If Farah is not selected and out for some time, would they be looking at Cook for SOO
