Is there anyone else you can put it on? Surgess last 3 game average vs the Roosters is only 44 (44, 48, 41). His overall average vs the Roosters is 39.9. His last 3 game average at Allianz is 48 (44, 60, 41). His overall average at Allianz is 41.

Well Roosters missing Flake Pearce Cordner and Napa and my C on Kapow

Wacko saying Lamb will come in for Feeny too.

Yeah sweet. I thought you might have had Friend or Arey or someone. Carry on Sir.

I might start from scratch again this week, but I figure this fortnight will be moving rounds so want the most amount of points on the board and see what Round 20 onwards throws at me.

How many players do you have for this week before trades?

King
Tolman Brown Bromwich Musgrove
Surgess Crichtonne Finucane
Cleary
Maubbs  SMat Fui
Dedwards

What to do:

Would you trade Smith Jnr to Farah this round if that means you can't get CS9 in round 20?

My other hooker is Friend.

Getting Farah gives me an extra player this and next round.

Do the points Farah scores this and next round, outscore CS9 for the run home?

If I was to trade in Smith in R20, it would need 2 trades also.

Not too bad mate.

Feeney playing for sure then

Feeling a bit of remorse today over my Graham to Merrin trade last night so I reversed it, just not sure if he'll get enough minutes when Cartwright is back with CHN there as well. N.Brown would be a safer option maybe but he doesn't play next week. Buggered if I know what to do now, back to square one I guess.

Happens every week, there's loads of time to sort my team out but I always seem to be scrambling up until the last minute finalising trades.

You would have seen Crichtonne in a moon boot earlier.
Tohu looks good to go if you are the 7 people plus Loomer who own him.
And apparently the mighty Maroons have all been struck down with Necrotising Fasciitis. NSW rampant favourites, but if QLD win it will be our greatest victory ever 

Thanks mate, no, had know idea.

So are people staying away from him as a (vc) choice? Any idea how serious it is? Sounds like he will play, but are people expecting limited minutes?

Everyone's moved the VC to Surgess.

Apparently has full weight on moon boot leg, precaution to avoid swelling, but mentioned earlier Souths hid the surgess butthole injury till game day, so who knows.

Friend
Taupau, Tualau, Saunders??
Crichton, Surgess
Cleary, DCE
SMat, Kelly
Mansour, Edwards, Turbo

Will bring in Saunders as a cash out for McGuire unless a good proposition pops up earlier.

If Crichton plays he is my VC. Wouldn't consider anyone else an option with no Surgess

Think I'll have to VC Friend and C Taupau. 
Awkward match day setup this week

Cheers mate,

Yeah not great. I might have to do the same then. Either that or take a punt on someone else... How did Surgess hurt his bum? do I want to know the answer to that?

(VC) Crichtonne
(C) Dedwards

Bring it on with my 10 man team for the weekend! Cry:

NBrown, Taupau
Crichton, Surgess, Fuimaono
Cleary, Walker
Scott
Dedwards, Chanel

so fxrd.

My usual suspects this week

Friend (vc)
Gurgess Taupau Tualau
Surgess Crichton
Cleary Walker
Scott Fuimaono
Edwards (c) Radradra

Team this week. No trades yet with 5 left

N. Brown (c), Tualau
Taupau, Surgess, Crichton, Elliot
Lamb
L. Mitchell, Fuimaono, Kelly
D. Edwards, C. Walker

I'm still debating my vc (either Surgess, Crichton, Taupau or D. Edwards)
I have 12 playing & still debating whether to use any trades.

Team this week

Friend (VC) King
Taupau Bromwich Gurgess
Surgess Chrichton Merrin Brown (C)
Cleary Walker
Scott Fui
TTurbo Edwards Burns

Friend
Tolman Brown Gurgess
Crichton Surgess Merrin
DCE Cleary
Scott Fui
Walker Gutherson Edwards Burns

Here is my team as it stands with 3 trades and 128k in the bank. Here is my thoughts on how to use my final trades (injuries permitting)

Smith McInnes
Fifita Brown Eisenhuth Fai
Taumalolo Taupau JDB Surgess Gallen Crichton
SJ Munster NuBrown Hampton
BJ Fuimaono Scott Kelly
RTS Mansour Edwards Hayne Phythian

Scott(if he is dropped for Blair) to TTurbo
Brown to Pearce via Fui and Munster
RTS to Tedesco or upgrade Fui

Anyone see any ideas that I'm not seeing?
