    Current focus is head to head so trying to generate cash asap but the team is also sitting at 102 overall so i don't want to kill myself too much. My team with $280k in bank atm is:
    CS9, Cook
    JBrom, Arrow, Lodge
    NBrown, Tohu, CMurray, RFM, Kikau,
    Bryce, Doueihi,
    Kennar, Hiku
    Teddy, Ponga, Dufty

    LCroker, Havili, Nicholls, JMK

    If you can afford to make the trade you want by getting rid of Nichools, I would ditch him first.

    I would keep Cartwright for another week. Low BE this week means he'll probably still make cash, and there is still a chance he eventually makes the move back to 6 or edge back row where his fantasy potential can be maximised (or his fantasy suckiness can be minimised if you want to look at it that way)

    I'm sticking with Smith as Captain. I can find excuses for him. I did however find excuses for Lichaa as well so it may not end well.

    Out of curiosity, what would force you to consider not captaining him (besides bye round)? I often see people saying they captain him each week because of previous years but when does it become clear there are better options? I ask this as somebody who captains him every week but doesn't know why....

    You asked this question just after replying to Rabbit.

    Not suggesting anything, just something I noticed.


    Not answering your exact question, but on a slightly related tangent, Finch and Random annoy me because their avatars look almost identical and I always get confused as to who is posting.
    Similar to that was Honeysett using a picture of Archer (the TV Show) as his avatar and I always got him confused with Archer (the bottom bitch of Tyson Frizell)

    Confirms that Kennar is out but doesnt advise how long for which is the important information.

    Also discusses the speculation on Croker / Hastings but doesn't confirm either way.

    Lots of unanswered questions still leading into lockout.

    I had captain Cook last round... I got my hopes up when Smith scored 50

    In the end both scored 50  Rolling Eyes

    I made a similar trade.. SST and Croft out for Fifita and JMK.

    Was expecting around a 45 average for SST with those minutes, but doesn't look to be.

    He was awesome a couple of years ago when he was SR/WFB. Reliable 40 points in 40 mins every week off the bench.

    49 mins, 57 mins and 45 mins for a 32 average thus far..
