Doueihi is a clear standout

I'd play Kikau and Williams but thats an awfully close call.

Rochow and Isaako will be the safer plays out of that crew but I think Kikau and Williams have more upside and I'm an optimistic guy

Kikau, Rochow, Doueihi

What have I missed

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

said it in an earlier thread, but seeing as it's the hot topic - making this new loophole a part of your strategy this early in the season seems to me to be a pretty good way to run out of steam at the tail-end, the money one could be missing out of by purposefully keeping red dots in their team doesn't seem worth it to me

Enjoy!

Q/ So what happen to all the red dots, when you need to fill a team out during origin?

A/ Stick them in your poophole until they turn green.

Hoping for the remnant of a particulalry nasty red dot resting in an internal crevice to be violently released in a memorable stink-up resulting in Kikau scoring single figures.

This is my most pressing death ride of the week it seems at 11 to 1 odds.

You got Murray, Arrow, RFM, Griffin?

Those are the best downgrade options that will score close to Merrin

All bar Arrow but i really want Widdop or Mbye...

Haha, I just realised the most PODish player I have is Harris with 8.2%

Okay. Can we please have a separate loophole thread OR move this thread and rename it to Not Loophole Fantasy Thread haha I want to talk fantasy, not flaws in a shitty app

Isaako a bit too risky, right?

Now thats livin on the edge Verbal. Huge cojones to go there but it is possible

as he is due some tries and the Titans defence is well ...........

agreed, seem like the potential for an extra 10-15 points at the expense of some of these cows making 30/40k a week is not worth it

Isaako is balls to the walls call and then some as a captain option

it would be balls to the wall in a bye round where All the top 40 fantasy players are not playing

Last post of yours I remember was "Corey Thompson won't even score 20 against the Storm".

Cant be right all the time mate.

He has come a long way from the plodder on the wing at the dogs.

Look, I would create a seperate thread for loophole talk. But if I did, nobody would use it and they'd post all their crap in the main thread anyway

You could make the argument that looking at BEs on mtb's site is a loophole, but noone is refusing to do that on moral grounds, because getting BEs the intended way invovles spending a few bucks.

I have no issues with spending money to get the BE's - I just chose to give that money to MTB rather than Fanhub. Invisible hand of the market etc. etc.

I think Curtis Scott will be a juicy price if he can pick his avg up soon. Losing money fast

I think your chasing last weeks points.

I’ve traded Merrin for Arrow.

Thought about doing the same?

Yep, can't believe how shite his scores have been. I picked him as my first Centre in my Draft
