2017 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 36

Now I'm starting to worry about the bro. Mind you he's probably propped up at the bar getting on it & having a ball.

Yep.

Nothing happened on the forums etc as a catalyst?

That's weird. I hope he's ok.

Was pretty shattered when I first saw he had deleted his Fanatics account, but after knowing he had also deleted his Twitter accounts it made me think he is just after a proper break from everything while he is on his cruise. I've given him a bit of space, will email him this weekend just to see how he is travelling.

Pass on my regards. For all our differences, never want to see any lad having a bad time of it or in their own head. Here's hoping he's just partying like a menace

No mate, not around that time. Him and Welshy had a dust up a couple of weeks before but that was just their mandatory bi-annual smash

We were PMing each other 24 hours before he left and he didn't mention anything at all. He had just started his holiday and sounded really really good and didn't say anything was bothering him at all.

1 road rage, 1 driving while disqualified and now drink driving. I think he should miss 2 NRL games. I also thought Mary McGregor should have missed at least that many last year. Drink Driving is a serious crime and a lot worse than what Pearce did last season.

I was pretty sure the Raiders notified the integrity unit at the time(hence why was in media then) but said they would wait to see the outcome of the court case before finalising all punishments. Hence why its all back in the media now.

Oh i'm not against punishing drink drivers harshly and I completely agree its far worse than what Pearce did. I mean ffs Monnas lives over here in exile for what he did but we welcome blokes convicted of assault back into the game, so you won't see me arguing the NRL aren't completely fucked up in what levels they punish things at. I'm simply bemused at why they couldn't sort this out when it was first reported. A quick check and i haven't found any articles that haven't since been updated, but I know Papa was punished at the start of the year in some form and it was after discussing it with the integrity unit, they didn't wait for the outcome of the case. Maybe they agreed to revisit it at the end i don't know.

If I hear back I will let everyone know.

Good shizzle, KFP will be back and hopefully the break means he can even be some kind of fantasy threat when he does!

Haha, hopefully that's the case mate, will do.

backline...of
Slater, RTS......Cotric, Uate or Feldt.

Play Cotric or trade to Ponga/Munster/TTurbo?
Play Uate or Trade to TTurbo....(1k of Ponga)
Play Feldt and hope he goes guns like 2 weeks ago

thoughts...this will include Jacks out for CNK to get funds
i could go Jacks to Jai Field ($128k and will have enough for Uate to Ponga)

always enjoy watching the Samoans and Tongans play. Squads named if interested:

Only trading Elgey > CNK because I'm worried about his bench score.
Surely he's starting or not in the team at all, seems weird to have a bench half

Those games are always hard out . There's also bad history between both nations.

Think its a bit late going after Ponga mate, Coote is due back anytime.

Out of those trades I'd go Cotric to Munster.

Maybe the misses told him if he is on the phone doing his footy stuff on the holiday he'd be in trouble. I know mine would want me to shut down if we went away and she even put the footy in the wedding vowels

I know people are selling Cotric because he's peaked in price but I'm keeping him for round 12.

She actually put that in the vows! Hahaha.
