    The trouble is you are just so low and feel so much in a hole, that you can't really see a way out, and therefore all your thoughts are clouded by negativity and desperation. You want a better life for yourself, and in my case more so for the people close to me. Therefore suicide can feel like a feasible way to change things.

    Of course it is not the right option, and of course there are ways to get your self out of that hole. But at the time its an incredibly difficult place to be in and make the right decisions.

    Sorry to hear of your own bad times and struggles brother and glad you are here today talking Footy shit and sharing with the boys

It also gives me a chance to see if there is any substance to the Surgess rumour and whether I'll need to save a trade for him.

    I can cover SJ with Munster this week but it means I'll be a bit weaker in the backs by having to play RTS.

    Thoughts anyone?

    Not a bad idea thistime of the year to stretch a trade out. I too won't move SJ this week as we know carnage can hit in many forms. E.g. Could be a 600k Crichton

    Anyways wouldn't suggest the move is sensible because Pearce isn't going to go large. I think he probably will rack up the attacking points and I would get him if I had the trades for sure.

    RTS as a playing 17 is about par anyway so you won't lose ground playing him, just won't gain ground by having Pearce

    Sorry to hear mate, it's a horrible thing to have to go through and as someone that's had 1st hand experience watching a loved one go through it, it breaks your heart.

    Thanks for the relplies also lads.

    Not many fullbacks get a rest during games. Are you worried he'll get shifted to hooker in the coming weeks?

    Just hoping it stays as it looks. Play FB for as long as possible. In regards to coaches sudden change of mind, other shuffling required etc. Hopefully they give Radley a razz.
    If Watto can suit up then i can keep my 1 trade for any up coming mergys.

    I'm actually leaning towards selling SJ to Cleary instead of Pearce based on the upcoming games & also because Penrith play 5 of their last 7 games are at home. Also Cleary has the added advantage of goal kicking.

    Fuxake Aubs. Guess I should play SMat instead then.

    If he is out my trades are
    SJ to DCE
    ARey to Teddy via Munster

    If he plays on then I'd do just 1 trade
    SJ to Pearce.


    A Rey is fine you'd think. The Mole is just Fake News.

    I fully expect to use one of my last trades on Reynolds at some point but until then since I got him in Round 7 he's only missed one game through injury.

    I already have Cleary so I was tossing up between Pearce and DCE. Even though DCE has been in great form lately, I think Pearce has been more consistent overall.

    It goes against all my better judgment to play a possible-Scott over a confirmed-SMat...but I think I'm doing it

    But bear in mind that DCE is now getting base stats through kick metres & he's goal kicking since a couple of games ago. He wasn't doing either before then so he'll be more consistent from now & not relying solely on attacking stats.

    I hope Latrell does since he's in my team but I don't really know.
