You guys must all be screaming up the ladder.

Like Zed from Police Academy.

Gee if Lane is going to play like that every week he'll be a great 4th reserve for me.

I had 17 in 12, 14 in 15 and only 10 this round. Somehow despite being strong in two of them, I'm still getting sunk. Would have thought it'd even out but evidently not.  

From memory:

16/17/16/17/15 but will only have 16 next week where most I think have 17?

Who will play f/b if Gordon is out if indeed he is. I own the rollercoaster that is Latrell Mitchell & it could be between him & Watson.

He can mate, loved him at the Dogs. Will be very interested to know what happened to Kennedy.

Watson looked great back there, will be very hard to handle returning the ball.

Does anyone know any good trades for this team only 11 playing in round 19?

Yeah what's the deal with that. To be named to start & then get dropped must of pissed him off.

It's official. Feeney was dropped out so Lamb will start.

I'd wager a guess on Robbo leaning towards Watson only because it disrupts the current team structure the least. Latrell moves there then that means Aubo has to play centre for however long he's out which will completely blunt our left side attack.
Watson moves there then we can just use Cornish as the utility I guess.

Yeah that makes sense. I actually hope Latrell plays on the wing as he tends to score better there. He racks up t/b's having to do the hard yards out of his own half when he's on the wing but at ctr he is just plain lazy & is crap at defense at he just slings out a arm & for some reason doesn't want to go in hard when he's a big body & could smash the opposition.

Solid 30 points coming up. 29 of which are scored in the first half.

I had 16 in 12, 16 in 15, 14 in 18(after Whare and Scott withdrawals). Byes are the chance to pounce and make up ground or solidify a lead

For some. For others (like myself) the bye period is equivalent to treading water just trying to stay afloat.

Lacking a lot of depth so not a lot that can be done. Really hurt by base price players that failed to make cash in Phythian, Field, Feeney, Hoare. Best case scenario is using 2-3 trade and that left over cash to upgrade what you have. Hodgson>McInnes next week, Fui>Keeper second rower of choice. Leaves 4 reserves of McInnes, Vaughan, Mannering(or similar) and JDB

Yes I am aware of that. I would never have found myself in the Top 10 if I hadn't had a big Round 12. Still it's clear I haven't planned as well as someone like you has. It does make me wonder how many keepers you have out of those big numbers though and what your plans are post-Origin.

Thanks. Was thinking similar trades but Fui>Fifita and I would have a switcharoo with Nathan Brown and Taupau.
Who is better McCullough or McInnes?

Here's hoping this Saunders lad is a the second coming of CHN haha

Just saw photos of Slater leaving QLD training in a buggy with his ankle iced up. Another potential injury for QLD means NSW are now clear favorites (if they weren't already).
