    Also picking up MWZ over Fui is yet another rookie mistake I'll have to learn from

    I still regret taking Abbey over Ponga, and never grabbing Hess thinking he would fizzle out haha

    Aitken's a bold choice since he isn't even named to return yet. If you could make Brown into Taupau then you have the best possible side you could field I think.

    Only one thing gets in the way of that and that is Madge. Every week the lineup changes. Even Crichton copped a benching a few weeks ago before he forced his way into an 80 minute role. Hopefully Fui can do the same but he is a bit dodgy in defence.
    All it takes is a few poor reads and boom the musical chairs lineup of Souths continues.

    The Aitken trade won't happen until Aitken has dropped some cash once he returns which is listed as round 18 I think.

    Brown to Taupau would be a good trade as well.

    JDB to Taupau makes sense. But I only have 8 trades left, and I think I might get more points taking the hit and upgrading elsewhere.

    So my current plan is that JDB doesn't get suspended

    Great plan milchy.
    Not sure if I already know the answer to this but were you around in the old Sportal days?

    Just on this sort of thing. What exactly is the mistake, and how do you plan on avoiding it next time?

    With hindsight, it's easy to see that Fui outscored MWZ. But does that mean next time you'll pick the bench forward ahead of the starting Centre?

    Without seeing the future, what will you change to not make that mistake again.

    I've got only 7 trades left. What do I do if I trade JDB and then Taupau gets his ass suspended for two weeks?

    Running out of trades lost me top spot in my league a few years ago. Will try to hold fire on anything drastic as much as I can. Also JDB should fight the charge on account of it was Kenny Edwards so it's all good.

    I started lurking whatever year the old foxsports fantasy comp died and I had to switch to official fantasy.

    Didn't start posting regularly until 2014/2015, and then mostly in the fantasy thread

    Missed most of yesterdays Banter but could Milford the Magician be Hench

    Bronco supporter
    Former Arsewipe
    Laughed at the suggestion he was his Wacko
    Didn't say too much when someone mentioned he was Twotwo
    regular poster in league section
    However he did say he didn't post much in the fantasy section but I'm calling it bluff
    general posting type similar to Hench but without the aggressiveness
    turns up just after SI gives Hench a congrats for being so high up in the Rankings

    Just a hunch!
