Kodi to start by the looks of it mate.


Bennett usually confirms his team after the final session so it won't be long..

Fap fap fap

Unlikely given how dominant NSW were in game 1.

But you couldn't rule out him coming in for Brett Morris

my tv broke wrote:Ben Hunt owned by 45 teams in the top 1500.

WFB ownerships (in top 1500):
Slater 865, Munster 585, Tedesco 367, Nofo 25, Rapana 112, RTS 1465, Hayne 835

Note these are all pre trades for this week. Nofo a huge pod.

If Nofo can have a good game this weekend, he's almost a straight swap for Ponga next week, if Ponga doesn't play of course.

How the fuck does this work? Kodi and Milf with Benji on the bench?!

it would seem so.

Benji had been training as a 'utility' for most of the pre-season. he didn't come to the bronx expecting to win a role in teh halves.

tbh still not sure how we will line up.

I'd also be surprised if Hunt's axing was permanent. As average as he's been I can't see us winning the comp with Kodi (or benji) at 7...

Just reversed my Niko to Munster trade cause of the Munster news. Wanted Cleary anyway, but might save the trade and keep Niko if that's the case.

You have definitely just moved to the top of the class in the WL trading academy.

The Lone Scout on the Scout Report on NRL.com just gave this response to someone asking about JBrom;

Bromwich is a great player but with an average of 31 and just one score above 40 this season, he simply isn't Fantasy relevant in 2017. Sell him if you've still got him.

Really sell? He's bottomed out and plays the next two bye rounds. Terrible advice IMO from a so called guru IMO!

Brailey or CWalker for the 4th reserve?

Ben Hunt dropped? Did Wayne watch a replay of the 2015 GF on Monday night?

Yeah, I'm only really in my first year but this definitely seems wrong to me. His bye schedule means he'll match and outscore a fair few guns over the next couple of weeks.

Some further ownerships in the top 1500..
SMAT: 621 (I expected higher)
Cotric: 1138
Moga: 610
Leilua: 350
Croker: 228
Roberts: 41
Walker: 76
Lafai: 11
Aubbs: 80
Fuimaono: 1159

If Niko starts, I might do a luxury Frawley to Lolohea trade, or even Kelly to Edwards, or perhaps even Wallace to Merrin.

Confirmation from the Broncos that Niko will start in the halves

Do we have any clearer idea on Grahams return?

With Wallace looking likely to play SOO, am I better off trading him out?

Looking at bringing in Surgess and Gurgess for Stone and one of Graham and Wallace.

Alternatively.

I go Stone to Gurgess this week, gives me a week to see if Graham plays with Injury and confirm Wallace inclusion in SOO team.

Well if Kodi is going to start that solves my Cook problem - Cook out & K-Nik in.

Wacko posted this yesterday;

Bulldogs James Graham (shoulder) and Josh Reynolds (hamstring) both trained with squad Today, both expected to play #NRLBulldogsDragons

Take from that what you will.

"There is no doubt Kodi will be the halfback here next year" - Bennett.

Shit, this obviously means that Hunt won't be getting back in.

Kodi can stay put this week at least.

He probably won't.
