    Stuff it - reverse trades. Just going to save my trades this week - if I miss out on JMK then so be it. I'm sure there'll be some other must have in a few weeks time when I'm ready to cash out a cow or two. Nicholls and Carty just need to make a small amount of cash each week and I'll be happy.

    I find it strange that people are trading Croker out due to a rumour, presumably started by Massoud, that he's been dropped.
    There's been no confirmation.
    To be quite honest, he was one of the better players in a very ordinary team performance last week.
    As a former Raider, I know he's keen to play against them this week. Until there's confirmation, I don't believe he's been dropped.

    FYI peter mulholland from Raiders:

    “There’s no substance to those reports whatsoever. Farah is not coming to the Raiders and Sezer isn’t leaving,” Mulholland told foxsports.com.au.

    “We have been hearing this story for the past three months and it’s just not happening.”

    Sharks: Star half Matt Moylan remains in doubt for the blockbuster clash with Melbourne due to a knee issue that has plagued him across the early rounds of 2018.

    Moylan has been on restricted training duties this week and has sufficiently recovered from the hamstring injury that ruled him out of last Saturday's win over Parramatta, but a call won't be made until game day on whether he returns to Cronulla's line-up against the Storm.

    "It's just a problem with his knee, but he's had it through the trials and through the first couple of rounds. We'll just keep bubbling on with it and hopefully he gets on top of it," coach Shane Flanagan said on Thursday.

    If Moylan is scratched Trent Hodkinson will partner Chad Townsend in the halves once more. Luke Lewis has also come through the captain's run unscathed and will return from a foot injury for his first game of the season

    Kaufusi is due back next week

    Broncos: The Broncos have no further injury concerns ahead of the local derby clash with the Titans after losing Tevita Pangai jnr and Corey Oates earlier in the week. Both Matt Lodge and James Roberts stepped away from training on Thursday. Roberts had to attend to a private matter while Lodge had a minor injury, and neither are in any doubt for Sunday's local derby.

    Like how you have highlighted the flexibility of my DPP players.

    I don't really like picking Kikau over a player who is almost certain to post a decent score.

    I suppose I could try and loop Kennar in some way but I am not really into looping and I can't be stuffed putting the time in to working out how to do it.

    Kikau could just as easily score 15 again

    This isnt Dave Warner ball tampering, its part of the game and is just another element of scoring. no different to selecting a captain and getting double points.

    Do you guys go into a shop and pay full retail for an item even when its on sale ?

    Each to their own. I used the Captain Loophole as best I could in the past and once I have my head around the new Loop I will use that as well. But if people decide to not entertain it them that's up to them.

    I consider myself a person of high morals and values. I don't see it as cheating as it is the way the Comp has been structured. The Ryan James trading in after the game had finished affair in 2016 was blatant cheating however and I would never have considered that as it was a glitch to be taken advantage of by shit cunts.

    Yeah, I thought that was a little odd too. Surely Teddy warrants a starting WFB spot... especially against the Warriors!

    More importantly though, now that Milch has confirmed what I posted earlier, @mattnz I reckon you need to figure all this loophole stuff before giving advice. I realise you are trying to help, and I hope Im not going to come across like a cock here, but you've posted some odd (and incorrect) things in relation to loopholing in last 48 hours, so it might be better to hold off on giving advice to others on this matter until you've got a handle on it yourself. Its already a wee bit confusing, so when incorrect info gets posted as fact and advice, it has the potential to confuse the situation even more.

    I have based my whole game in the last 2 rounds on loopholing and have researched it extensively, testing many different scenarios. The optimal way to do it is to play the non player in your 13. The objective is to see 2 or 3 players play before making a decision on which score to get, not just 1.

    You don't need to take good advice if you don't want to hear it.
