"Kaysa has torn both his lateral collateral ligament (LCL) and his posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) in his knee."

PCL/LCL injury for Pritchard can be up to 12mnths recovery, very tough to recover from. Can't guarantee return to 100% depending on severity

Poor Pritchard. He always gives 200% on the field & always seems to get injured. Very unlucky as well with this injury as he leg got caught in the wrong place.

I think this is close to my final team (hope so anyway as I only have 4 trades left after this week!)

Smith McInnes
Taupau Brown James Eisenhuth
Taumalolo JDB Surgess Gallen Crichton Fai
SJ Munster Hampton NuBrown
BJ Hayne Fuimaono Scott
RTS Tedesco Turbo CWalker Phythian

The only things I have as a plan is cashing out CWalker to upgrade Hampton or going James to Fifita but otherwise I think it's not bad. Anyone care to run the rule over my team?

469 points behind first so I don't think I'll be winning this year I am ranked 2nd in SA and 24th from Broncos supporters so that's something I guess.

Yeah I'm exactly 500 points behind first but last week I was only 392 places. Although I only had 11 players the big jump suggests that those up top had high player numbers. Who knows they made have low numbers for round 18 whereas I will have higher numbers so the points difference should get closer. But as you say there's no chance of even getting close but a top 100 finish is feasible.

Edwards or Turbo to bring in this week for final 17?

The obvious answer is T-Trbo but it's quite possible that Edwards could match his scores at a much cheaper price. T-Trbo does have the advantage of dpp though.

Tturbo was pissing alot of people off who owned him b4 his injury. Yet he is still at around 21% ownership. Jis average is gud for $414k imo.

Yeah I was thinking Turbo as I'm sure Edwards would be a great 18th man but I want my final 17 ASAP so I think Turbo needs to be in my final team

If you bring in both edwards and Turbo i imagine it stops u upgrading elwewhere right ?

Is anyone else concerned about Tom Trbo's ankle injury? From memory he was hobbling a fair bit during the last game he played. Looked like he came back from injury too early. Currently a non owner however I am looking at trading him in. I might give him another game to see how things pan out.

Tommy can be frustrating because he plays awesome but doesnt rack up the junk TBs like some of the others.

Im waiting to see how he goes to be honest.

JDB has screwed me and I'll only have 15 this week. What are the chances Curtis Scott and Smith Jr. Get a run?

I'll likely be swapping Slater to turbo in round 18, will be watching him closely to see if his over his Injury

I traded out TTrbo earlier and have no real inkling to bring him back, don't think he's averaged enough to make him a MUST have over other options and high ownership isn't what i want this time of the year (I say this as i intend to trade in Smith and SJ this week  )
