    Was so close to bringing in Friend yesterday too.

    I must of been kissed on the dick by a fairy last night, shame I couldn't feel or remember it.

    EDIT: that fairy is of the female type.

    I'm sure he missed more than 3 tackles... Suspect

    This only proves that fantasy scores do not always equal quality of performance

    If Kodi scared you away when Macca was 428k, then those fears were confirmed last night. Hunt's injury was a reprieve for Macca owners, but doesn't seem serious and by the time you raise the cash, he'll be back with Kodi on the bench.

    I'm looking forward to when Merrin, Ryan James and Maloney make a split second play or two and score 80+ and become the talk of the town.. for a day.

    Mentioned this in the DT thread but as a Broncos fan I was hoping that Macca played 80mins regardless last night by slipping into lock when Niko came on.

    Admittedly I also own him in fantasy teams but I still think it is our best option given the form he is in and the fact he really doesn't need a break during a match.

    So it's rainbow round this weekend, everyone! Lace up your rainbow laces and support the campaign against Homophobia in sport.

    If you don't have rainbow laces, go and get some - THEY ARE FREE!

    Everyone should feel welcome to be who they are on the field and in this forum. <3

    Oh, you'll love it.

    QLD fill their side with NSWelshmen, Fijians, Kiwis and Samoans. We let them out of sympathy, then they normally claim superiority in a manufactured spectacle. NSW treat it as a novelty game, as the premiership is more important and don't mind the QLDers winning a few because we know they have an enormous 'small man syndrome' complex, and this makes them feel much better about themselves while considerably reducing the suicide rate.

    Well Fifita will miss a lot of game time over Origin so consider that. If you hold off though, Fifita might have one of those signature big games and you'll kick yourself so whatever you think is the best move to make.

    I'm having a similar problem. Wanting to know which rubbish player to trade in (Hampton, Frawley, Cook, etc) as I want to trade Lamb to SJ. Problem is the Knights play first so whichever option I choose I would be stuck with even if late mail presented a better offer.
    I might just sacrifice the points this week and bring in SJ next week. Watch him score 100 this week.

    Saying here possibly Frawley to halves, Mbye to Hooker and Lichaa out??

    Wacko’s Whisper: Blake Leary is tipped to come onto the bench for Kalyn Ponga. Ponga will only play if Lachlan Coote is ruled out with a calf injury.

    Wacko’s Whisper: Bodene Thompson is in doubt and Bunty Afoa is on standby.

    Maybe I could use a photo of one of the 8 broken TV's I have gone through this season after crushingly close defeats or letting in tries of that nature (along with throwing the ball away willy nilly) last night.....

    Anyway enough of that, lets get back to talking about whether the FAC prophecy will eventually be fulfilled either this season or next.

    Or maybe we just grab SJ and risk the dollars lost from lamb/elgey vs frawley/hampton

    Points vs $$? Ranking vs setting up? Reality vs prediction? Its a vicious cycle
