Go on.....

The average POD % in my team is 22%, I mean I guess that means im on the right track, but I do like to be different.

Still contemplating running with Friend and Fifita over Smith and Jbrom.

Last few positions still available if anyone is interested in playing VSDT Fantasy (Sportsdeck). Add your name to the link below or PM me

Tom Trbojevic to take on Manly kicking duties http://www.canberratimes.com.au/rugby-league/manly-sea-eagles/tom-trbojevic-to-take-on-manly-kicking-duties-20180306-p4z35y.html

how they get that title from this quote I don't know

"If the ball ends up in my hands on the last tackle and there's no halves around, I guess I'll just have to do my best."

Any specific reason you've gone O'Neill, or just betting he'll improve on last year's 1 try

Smith
Scott, Lodge
Brown, Aarow, RFM
Croft, Croker
Leilua, Hayne
Tedesco, Ponga, Inglis

Cartwright, Cook, Latu, IPapali'i

Havili, Kikau, Katoa, Hiku

$140k left.

I am not inspired.

sao and ipapalii up to 5% and 5.5% ownership respectively. last night they were at .5% and 1%. (the cynic in me thinks people with more than one team are taking a punt)

in saying that, is sao a better prospect than rochow? both have doubts over longevity. perhaps the 84k difference could be better spent elsewhere

This may have been posted already on the forum

but who owns the teams "Bin Chicken" and "Green Machine"

Can you let me know who you are please

If referring to overall league, latter would be me.

Just thought I would post a few thoughts:

Cheap edge second rowers that are starting are usually very good cash cows but job security is the issue here e.g. RFM, Rochow, Kikau

Starting hookers are good cash cows e.g Cook, Lichaa, Griffin, Havilli. Again job security and minutes the key here. I rank them on price and potential score as Cook > Griffin > Lichaa = Havilli.

Round 13 and Round 17 are going to screw people. To get to 17 and 16 maximum players in these rounds you will uses 12 trades between these rounds. Limit origin players because every origin player you start with and keep for the season means 1 less player in at least 1 bye.

If you have 34 trades to start the year less 12 trades between origin and leaving 10 for after origin 3 for injuries and getting to your final team you really only have 12 trades for the first 13 rounds.
You will need to start with a fair few players that play round 13.

To balance all this is really hard work.

Sao is not a better prospect than Rochow. Sao is shit.

Can someone help me rank Isaako, Katoa and Kennar - need one of them to be in my 1-17 and prefer one of them to drop out of my team all together. Don't know much about them so I'm just guessing really!

So, with the aim of not messing around trading backs (for as long as possible). 260k in the bank to get in a decent prop after Rochow plays a few games.

Smith
Lodge Rochow
Arrow RFM Griffin
Carty Croft
Litchell Jayne
Teddy-Pong Dufty

Cook Lichaa NAS Nicholls
Havili Kikau Croker Katoa
