    That depends. Do you have any non-paying reserves? I hear there may be a way to exploit that arrangement........

    I shall continue that trend.

    No loophole talk in the main thread.

    Surely Mitchell is due for a few TB's against Hiku? Might pull his ass out this week and score a 60

    I'm quite tempted to always refer to it as poolhopping from now on.

    It seems like the captain choice might be a bit more interesting.

    Although, I'm sure Smith will score 70 now to quickly nip this in the bud

    In this scenario, to maximize the power of the loophole, play TPJ in your 13 at FRF exchanging him with a non-dual FRF, leave Teddy where he is in 18. Play Kikau at 20. Switch Rochow for a non-dual 2nd Rower.

    Now wait for Teddy and Kikau to play. Choose which of their scores you want to get. If you want Teddys score, you can move Griffin into the interchange before he plays and you get his score. If you want Kikaus score you can move Griffin down to 21.

    Because TPJ is dual and his team plays late in the round and so do Tigers, you can also switch TPJ and Rochows positions. Without seeing the full squad it is hard to recommend, but normally in this kind of scenario you can see 2 or 3 players play before deciding which score to take.

    This is why having the player in the 13 is much better than having them on bench / emergency. You get lots of flexibility and options. Now who needs to keep quiet on what they don't know they are talking about?

    You could stand to be a bit quieter in general and consider the possibility that sometimes you might be wrong. I rate that you are not a sheep and stand by your decisions. Just need to tone it down a bit.
