    The only thing the next round will tell us is his role not his earning really, could bust out a 50 then fall flat with 20s the next few rounds

    Being dropped after 2 rounds probably mean Frawley won't be back any time soon, Cleeland is injured isn't he, that's a worry if the dogs keep losing

    but I'm happy to bring him in at base price and see how he goes

    I think I read Cleeland is out for only another couple of weeks.

    BJ got injured and he got minutes because of it because Whitehead moved to center

    (a) Nicholls out - C. Thompson in (for the cash rise) or
    (b) Nicholls out - C. Murray in (for the points)

    My first trade was Croft to Doueihi

    Current team including Doueihi:
    Smith (c)
    Arrow, Lodge
    Jurbo, N. Brown, RFM
    Doueihi, Carty
    Mitchell, Kennar
    Tedesco, Ponga, Isaako

    Cook, Griffin, JFH, Rochow
    Kikau, L. Croker, Havili, Nicholls

    If you go Thompson then you can start him over Isaako which strengthens your 17
    Do you need Murray right now as you have a solid 2rf and he won't go up a huge amount in a week.

    Put it this way, you can always bring in Murray next week but Thompson definitely won't be an option (If you did want to get him).

    which is the worry if the dogs keep losing because you would think he comes in for JMK

    would they change 2 halves within weeks though?

    Hell yeah. Great moves mate.

    I was worried I was limiting cash generation, but it should save a trade (hopefully SJ will be a keeper where I'd probably need to trade out TPJ). Also, I've got Kennar, Hiku, Griffin, RFM, Havili, Doueihi etc all making good money.

    Arrow, Lodge
    Murray, Griffin, RFM
    SJ, DCE
    Mitchell, Kennar
    Teddy, Ponga, Hiku

    Cook, Cartwright, Rochow, Doueihi

    Doggies fans want someone called Lewis. Never heard of him.

    No, the discussion was why is everyone down on Havili, but the truth is he isnt a great player option, has had a try inflated week 1 for 30 minutes, played more minutes week 2 due to injury.

    Only potential swap would be Hiku for Thompson mate

    I would go Hiku back to CTR over Kennar, then Thompson in.

    What Welshy said basically but still think you play Hiku given the way the Warriors are going

    Without really analysing it, if I could I would as well.

    Still not sure what your point is sorry. I don't think anyone thinks he is a great player option.

Hopefully she drops on Thursday or Saturday but not Friday. Apparently it was due yesterday but Edwards said in an interview that he thought he'd be sweet for Friday night as babies can arrive 2 weeks either side of the due date.

    Cheers lad. Only WFB backup is Kennar so hopefully Edwards plays or Kennar has a blinder

    Can't see any downside there. Just do it.

    Agree mate. I'm thinking Jarrod Wallace last year. Yeah in real life he did a lot of work and played well, but deadset Fantasy wise he was kissed on the dick from all the injuries and defence they had to do as well.

    Havili isn't in the same realm yet, but after 2 rounds he could have been a lot worse.
