Shit! Even with Macca, Graham Brown fails

This week a huge edge if you just had the right guys who went huge who are all guns in their own right. Would suggest though poor bye planning for anyone who did catch the likes of Merrin, Tolo, Fifita

I will be doing
Brown to Graham
Norman to ARey


And maybe Slater to Mitchell

Seem like great trades mate, not sure about Mitchell tho, didn't he hurt his sternum or something?

Here's hoping for some monster scores

Nice matchday squad that! Your rank will bounce back for sure

Showbags wrote:I have tolman, but really not convinced about his scoring. He only got a second go at end because graham got injured, would of play a 5min stint like last week otherwise

Agreed. I bought him a couple of weeks ago as the cheaper between him and Graham, but watching today, there is nothing to his game. Its only tackles, metres gained and missed tackles or penalties.

Never looks for an offload or looks to bounce off tackles. Makes contact and drops.

Only saved today with a bit of extra volume.

He'll probably linger around for me as my 18th man though until the end. His price is already on the drop again, so won't be worth trading out.

Spectre wrote:Gordon anyone?

I'm tempted. But I'm unsure if my love for him has been clouding my judgement, so I've avoided so far
He's very cheap for his average. Good byes. Has been getting super involved. Hmm...

Yep. If CHN doesn't get the coaches talk this week, its going to be tough to decide who to put the R on out of these two.

That was an outstanding hit he put on JWH with about 5 to go. Working back from his dropped ball and nailed the big man one on one.

anyone got a link that doesnt require vpn to next game? otherwise i will have to watch a blurry copy through nrl website

Reckon he'll be a good POD too since no one really talks about him. And I have Slater who'll I'll most likely need to sell during byes

Even though Latrell didn't play the whole game I'll still take his 46 points. The way the 2nd half went he wouldn't of scored much more but maybe could of scored a 50. However bringing in both Croker & Mitchell this week definitely improved my ctr scores. I haven't heard an update on Mitchell but I hope he's ok.

Does it not work on the app in NZ Showbagz?

Haha nice fixture for you. What's your rank at now?

I would love smith to repay the (c) faith here. Even though alot of others hope the same.

Also after fifita and Lolo huge scores id like a quiet one out of surgess

As i type this he makes an error haha

So now that I can see my H2H trades, it looks like I've got Billy and Burgess to make up 80 points to win my H2H.

Unfortunately, against Russ in Ultimate, he has Billy and Burgess to make up 80ish points to me.

So torn...

This is the exact trade I'm considering. I'll probably wuss out though. Should be an upgrade with the 2 extra games he'll play. Maybe.

Slater already involved

Fair warning: I bought in Cody Walker and Tyrell Fuimaono this week.

Apologies in advance.

I own Slater & the way he's going I don't want to trade him out even though he misses 4 games.

Lovely 40-20 from (C)am

I really don't want to sell Slater. He always disappoints with those looking like huge scores he throws away with missed tackles but it's so much damn fun to see him back fit and healthy, playing his best and scoring for my team. As a NSW fan I can safely say we're screwed with him back in the 1
