So clearly Burgess hasn't been alright to play since the rib injury, Souths medical team gets fired after this year, right? their rap sheet this year makes Dr. Nick look competent in comparison

I hate the fact I still own 4 Bunnies players. I fucking knew playing Fui this week after benching the last two weeks would turn out shit. Ugh.

Fui might crack 30 with updates if he's lucky.

I only played Surgess in that game and lost almost 200 places!!

I'm hoping there's a few teams at the top that put the C on Crichton and didn't get to check the teamlists before the game.

But he'll be out there next week once again. The most frustrating thing is is that he's scoring really well the time he's on the field.

Is there any updates?

Mbye 26
Graham 73
RFM 40
Klemmer 45
Elliot 23

bloody awesome, Crichton made 50. Happy work kept me too busy to sub him out.
Surgess however is a frustrating mofo

Lol Crichton is ridiculous.

Hi Stew. Thanks for your comment. You're in luck as despite your great work stump grinding there is still time to help me choose.
Which venereal disease would you liken to each of my players, and which is your favourite?

Hi zorasdomain, it's Stew again. The stump grinding took longer than anticipated as it was quite bushy and Stew was struggling to make a start with his tools. But you'll be happy to know that once Stew managed to find his way in there it was full steam ahead. Choo Choo.

In regards your question, Stew rates Yates at the top of the list of venereal diseases, as you can't spell Yeast without Yates and the way Luke hangs around without offering anything really helpful-well he is very much like Thrush-just an irritating c=#t.

Dylan Walker is like the HIV, because you know in his early days he wreaked havoc, but since then he has been well contained.

Kurt Capewell is the Herpes-bobs up every now and then but you are never quite sure whereabouts.

With NuBrown-well Stew believes that is a separate set of diseases altogether. Much like his namesake Nathan Brown, both have copped it in the face of late and woken up an hour and a half later without any memory. A bit like Stew's ex-wife after a Rohypnol Martini. James Bond has nothing on Stew; Stew's conquests end up stirring in the morning and also very shaken.

Stew hopes that helps.

Any chance Murray gets a permanent starting gig to finish off the year? Scored 43 last week and 49 this week. Could be a solid cash out for those looking to uograde elsewhere while providing some depth if he maintains the starting gig.

Could be right. Only for those with trades of course.


I reckon Moose is Bren !

Of course another wrong decision benching Crichton. I wont be surprised if we see the same rotations next week. Crichton could come off the bench for the next three weeks.

Surgess will play and last another 50 minutes lol.

filthridden wrote:Do we honestly reckon Crichton is going to score considerably less from the bench?

He played off the bench in round 3 and scored 31 in 58mins against the Roosters.
I would say he's improved as a footballer since then plus Souths are playing the dogs.

I'm still guessing he'll score 40 odd, given how Surgess has gone lately he may still outscore him.

I don't often toot my own horn but TOOT FUCKING TOOT.

So I want Dufty to score 45 or more... beat Walker... that would be nice. Yes, please.

Happy with 50 from Angus and 44 from CodyW.
Glad I traded out Surgess way back when he was out injured for a round...one of the best fantasy decisions I made this year.

Surgess probably getting the sack next week (from my team).
Bringing in Lolo or Mannering.

Moose outs himself as Bren the same time Stew returns. I smell a rat.

Big final match up! I've gone JDB as captain, he has standard Smith.

Taupau vs Graham (73)
Gallen vs JTurbo
Cleary vs Pearce
Croker vs Cotric
Rapana vs Roberts
Edwards vs RTS

Gonna be tight, Graham has definitely put me on the back foot.

What are my chances?

So many of those match ups are either very similar scorers or players who could score 20-60.

I reckon Rapana and Deddy get you over the line vs Roberts and RTS.

I also hope that Croker doesnt pass to Cotric  .

Only have one player each tonight, so will still be non the wiser
