    747 and another ranking drop. Demoralising is the word I think.

    SST definitely gone now, what a terrible pick.
    Merrin will probably go with him. No time for 40 minute plodders.

    Matterson and might take a punt on Alvaro if it's possible, gonna be close

    Pre updates I've managed to win all of my leagues and draft match ups. I am still far from happy!

    Oh no, I hope not... At least Levi will get a gig now on the bench hopefully.

    Of cause you already had him.

    I did already have him! cheer But I had somehow completely forgotten that I had him when I posted yesterday about my score and my players remaining. He did well.

    Ended up on 836 which is not bad considering the rubbish scores from most of my players today.

    I've got a terrible migraine now from watching Cartwright and then Mitchell. Enough is enough, they have to go. I've got to start thinking of my health.

    Was gonna kick SST, but tried to be cute and save trades.

    So frustrating

    I'm not really concerned about Mitchell at all tbh. Even if he has a bad game he gets bumped up by doing the kicking which gives his scores a more reliable consistency than most centre options. The Roosters are going to score a lot of tries this year so most weeks there's going to be plenty to convert.

    He had some negatives that held back what could have been a much better score but they also didn't go his way that much.

    Would you believe, I had SST also in position 14 and was hoping he was out today to get AE of 56 from Kikau. Wasn't to be so I kept a trade up my sleeve and went SST---->S.Griffin at 6.25pm. Thank goodness I did that..............................

    I had Rochows 48 waiting in the wings. I've made 1 trade in each round so far. Next week will definitely be 2. Matterson very high on the list as a HLF partner for Walker.

    Bit bemused.

    Hayne aside, feel like I’ve got a good team on paper yet every score posted so far higher than mine and I’m outside the bloody top 3000.

    Any thoughts on my main issue or difference to the masses?

    Smith Cook Griffin Havili
    Tapau Arrow Kikau
    Brown Murray RFM Rochow
    Cartwright Douehi Croker
    Inglis Hayne Hiku
    Tedesco Ponga Thompson Kennar

    Weak Halves the major difference?
    2RF depth issue? I have all DPP at prop to avoid that becoming an issue

    Sub 740 this week Bang

    I feel like I have a great team on paper as well but the scores are getting worse by the week.
    Cartwright is definitely not helping, everyone has shit centres.

    I absolutely have no idea why they are scoring so bad.

    There are going to be a few new players on the radar this week...
    Tyrone May for Cleary? --- Tyrone May not ready to return yet?
    Brock Lamb for Watson?

    I think Tyrone May might be a good trade in for Hayne or Cartwright

    I had him for most of last year as well, and unfortunately that's a regular occurence for him. Thank god he scored that try today, but still I've had enough of him..............
