    Thinking about going for a left field POD for the last two weeks.

    Thoughts on Widdop?

    Haven't followed him the last few weeks.  Always been that type of player that only scores well when the team are putting points up.  Ballsy POD choice though.  Who would make way for him though?

    Is anyone else staying away from Smith because he might get rested if they put on a score again or will he belt out 80 in 60 minutes ?

    I think the Bunnies will give them a good go and should be a closer contest to what some may think. I think Smith will rack up a good score, but I'm going for Fifi this week I think.

    Bugger it last 2 trades

    Burgess > Fitzgibbon

    Is anyone picking one player over another solely because they play earlier in the week and therefore the other player poses more of an AE risk?

    I have Dufty outside my 17 this week and the Dragons are playing last so I've got at least one player I can bring in if anyone pulls out.

    Next week the Dragons play the penultimate game and I only have Teddy playing the final game of the season so hopefully Dufty can be 18th man again.

    Rapa as captain is an interesting choice. I'm really hoping he bounces back and Hodgson stops pushing him out of the way.

    I'm probably captaining Fifi, but I'm even thinking about rolling the dice and captaining new recruit Cam Murray.

    Ok, so I think I've decided on my last 2 trades. Anyone see any better options that I'm missing that might gain me more points?
    McGuire > Cam Murray
    Slater > Pearce via Munster.

    McGuire has scored 50+ in 2 of his last 3, Surgess with the week off may be right now to get back into form so there's also temptation to go Hayne to Nuff and McGuire to Mannering instead but that leaves slater stinking up my WFB.

    This would give me this as my final team with a headache of who to leave the R off between Ah Mau, Surgess and Murray.

    CS9 McInnes
    Nbrown Vaughan AhMau (Fai)
    Lolo Gallen Crichton JDB Surgess (Murray)
    Pearce Cleary (Lolohea Laybutt)
    Scott Croker (Fuiamono Isaako)
    Dedwards RTS Munster (Hayne Fogarty)

    Gotta decide between leaving one of Munster Edwards RTS and Surgess out.

    Sucks having that logjam and having to play one of Fui/Scott in the ctrs (or Hayne, lol.. though he might bust his gut this week?)

    Scott is ure he's had a fewan easy pick for me. S low scores but he's hit 50+ in 50% of his games so far including an 83.

    Take out his two outlier scores of 16 and 83 then you're still looking at 50+ in 50% of games and an average of 38 plus his next two games are at home.
    I think he's going to be a realistic gun centre option with a good discount next year.

    I feel for you mate.

    I'm in the exact same boat except that I have Mansour in there as well and possibly Teddy if I bring him in for Fui or Hayne.

    Very difficult decision.

    I think they will do the same and Smith will come off about the 70 min. mark unless Souths have them under pressure.
    I will be going Mannering or Taumalolo for a slight differential.
