If it wasn't for Isaakos high ownership is out him in the bad trade bin. Really need a new centre this week.

Are those guys trading Maloney for the cash grab still going ahead with it?

Yeah... will need the cash to go Isaako to Cotric

Having said that... when do they do the new DPPs? Would be a little interested in a gamble on the Rossdog as a centre...

500/11 with Jurbo Cap'n, Kikau, Maloney/Carty, Edwards, Arrow and Turbo/Havili.
Bad performances from Isaako, Lodge and Thompson but everyone else did well. Hoping for 800 this week.

Still no updates smh

Finally going to crack 800! 774 with Arrow and Kikau left. Little hard to keep track while hiking around Tassie, but a good score helps. Was going to trade Smith and Carty this week, but couldn't find any options I liked so no trades. Could still go Carty>Maloney now, should I?

684 with Kikau, Arrow and Maloney/Carty. Last nights game killed my momentum. Was hopeful to hit 800 for the first time but looking slim now.

Bringing in Maloney doesn't help my bank unfortunately, will still be short on Cotric.

Cartyweski might be Goniewski for me. Need some funds for the Rapana, Cotric and/or decent half fund.

I'm only seeing Gosiewski, Terepo and Maloney as viable options.. Maloney is just a straight swap, so doesn't help much. Plus I dislike him immensely.

Gosie's 2016 stats don't really make for pretty reading though..

5 games off the bench for Souths, averaged 16 points in 37 mins. High of 30 in 69 mins.

1 game last year 24 in 27 mins.

81k cheaper than Terepo though, so I might gamble on Gosie..

(probably turn out George Jennings was the right choice due to constant Eels injuries)

Must be coaches instructions not to pass the ball to Isaako. There was one time broncos attacked down the right hand side and Isaako didnt even bother pushing up, prob knew he wasnt going to get the ball.

The only chance left for Isaako is if boyd does a hammy or moves into the halves so that he gets a go at fullback

I really hope Cotric gets the FB gig so I can trade him in and not have to play Isaako. Poor bastard might as well not be out there. He wouldn't know what the fuck to do with the ball cause it's never been passed yo him during play.

Big day today with 7 players including Jurbo (c). Currently 435/10 with Jurbo (c), Arrow, Kikau, N. Brown, DCE, Maloney, JFH. I might crack 800 if Jutbo goes big & the others play to their averages.

Should be in for a decent score there. Any worry about Jurbo needing 2 tries to average 58 so far?

616 with 4 to play.

Potential for 800 but will take 750!

Dugan's DNP not helping.

Only ~5 more Dugan DNP's left for the year! On average..

Yeah playing outside ball hog/no pass Roberts ain't good for any player. I'm probably going to bring in Hiku this week. 1 comment that stood out for me in the Warriors game by Halligan "Hiku & Fusitua last played together in the u20's where they wrecked havoc & they are doing so today." They have some tough games coming up but the next 4/5 are at home.

So now that the Tigers have finished the easy part of their draw and have some tough games coming up, anyone going to trade out Thompson

Yes I do & when I watch him I always think to myself how will be crack 50. But I read a post on the Manly forum that the plan by Manly might be to attack the Titans through the middle as this is a perceived weak area of theirs so hopefully a few inside balls to Jurbo close to the line might see him crash over.

Watch list for today:
Max King
Ryan James
Jarrow Wallace
Jack Gosiewski

Anyone missing?

Just Maloney..












Missing tackles

Thompson scored 31 by virtually doing nothing & getting no ball but his speed & balance means he'll always get a few tb's. If greedy Marsters had of passed him the ball he would of cracked 40 points. Playing the Storm twice in a month I don't think is easy & they won both games so I think the Tigers are playing at a level where they'll go well moving forward. Thompson plays round 13 so he stays until then at least. I will bring in Hiku this week to strengthen my ctr/wfb options.
