Excellent

Can't do it with CS9 as you need to swap the capt for a NPR. The other really important thing is you need your VC playing before you capt. VC goes large put capt on bench for NPR and get capts points as AE.

Gotcha, thanks.

I don't consider it cheating if the official NRL fantasy rep advocates/supports it.

haha, fair enough!

Would taking the R off McInnes work?

I would loophole every week if I only had 17...

This season has given plenty of alternative Captaincy options... like Angus, Cleary, Taumalolo, and Mannering... to make it worthwhile

Fitzgibbon or Murray?

Want Murray but thinking Sam back might threaten his minutes, but saying that I can see Sam playing just a solid 40 minutes with the back three again playing 80 minutes, thereabouts. Looks like Sutton has been the one getting a rest at the end.

think Fitz is the safer bet minutes wise

Without Surgess I'd say Murray

Fitz definitely safer minutes wise. I don't pay much attention to him play to be honest, but each time I do he seems to be injured. Might have come good though, I didn't see that game on the weekend though.

Murray is a little monster though. I think he's getting to show his worth for next year. Sutton still not signed so he could be on the outer and I think as I said, Surgess may just play the 40 minutes to keep his match fitness up.

Do I play King or Surgess? King did me well last week

Not if Kaysa is on the bench mate, won't get the 80 he needs to score well otherwise

Wasn't Kaysa suppose to be out for like months? I thought it was a really bad injury.

Named on the extended team list mate, could be back this week

True. Didn't even think of that

Whilst it may appear due to my lowly ranking that I have given up long ago, I haven't and have been desperately trying to improve my scores each week.
My players are on notice, though I have no trades left, they will be dumped if they don't perform.
I do have Lewis Brown waiting for an opportunity.

Graham ---> JT13 locked in.

Smith (c), (McInnes)
NBrown, Taupau (Vaughan)
Gallen, Crichton, JT13 (JDB)
Pearce, Munster (Cleary)
Scott, Leilua
Teddy, Deddy, TTurbo

back-ups: Fuimaono, LeBrown, Dufty.

Thoughts:

Dufty vs Panthers
Leilua vs Knights

pick one?

I'm surprised he hasn't already returned. He was rumored to be close to returning a month or so ago. I'll be very surprised if he doesn't slot onto the bench or even start this week.

History shows the loophole dummy spit gets you nominated for the end of year award

1 vote for Leilua. You would think he will have a point to prove going up against his former club.

I remember last year a few guys thought this and put the C on him. He scored 24 or something. I'd still go him over Dufty against the Panthers.
