That sucks! The NZ side (and the Warriors for that matter) isn't the same without him, I wonder if Marshall will get a call up as his replacement

On a serious note though I wish SJ a speedy recovery. You have to wonder what scarring these injuries will have on him mentally since a big part of his game relies on his blinding speed and stepping ability. We have recently seen players battling with depression and mental demons while going through rehab, which is something you wouldn't wish on anyone. Beware the black dog guys!

That sounds like something I'd do which means it's a bad idea but the fact that he scored 126 means it could very well be worth it if you have enough trades left which I think you do. I would go for it mate.

Well who's your captain? Let's say you've captained......... Gallen for instance. He scores 65 and your score tallies up to........ 865

Take away that 65 and add that 126 to the 800 and you get..........926    

Is two trades worth the 61 extra points? No in case you're wondering

Just to take your example Gallen hasn't shown anything lately that suggests he'll score over 50. At this stage of the season I think this type of out of the box thinking is required only if there are a good number of trades left & I think LB does. In your example if Gallen scores 65 that's 130 as opposed to Cleary's 252 so that's an extra 122 points.

Could do SJ>Cleary and have enough just probably for Merrin>Fifi via Nate Brown which would give me DPP in 2RF and FRF with Kapow

Would be riding rest of season with 1 trade but CTR of Hayne Fui Scott and back up non 17 of Brom and either Guth or Cody. Alternative to SJ>Cleary would be a gun WFB or alternative half (other half DCE)
