    Did he get -14 ?

    Think I'm getting Rein for Lodge. Will bank me 379k to possibly double upgrade next week to two guns. I can't see Peats being back in 3 weeks after what he described as the worst pain he's ever felt, and it looks like 4 weeks will be the minimum for him to return.

    all speculation really but sounds like a bit of smoke and fire.

    Rein is a good replacement too, so if he performs, no need to rush him back. Coach was just being optimistic. Remember Burgess last year, came back early and couldn't last half a game.

    That's the junkest reporting I've ever seen. Club kicker cuts lonely figure as he stays back in training to practice his kicking. Who are these idiots that wrote this?

    Lane who was Hastings room mate backs Hastings version of events and that DCE was the instigator of a physical confrontation. A number of other players have backed Hastings and say he has their full support.

    Kent is reporting that it is all caused by long term bullying by senior players at the club and Hastings doesn't handle having continual practical jokes at his expense well. Seems that Barrett has sided with DCE more because he is their 10 million dollar man, rather than because he is right in the circumstances.

    I.Papalii or Nicholls for Murray. Who do guys think will do better? I'm leaning towards Papalii maybe more minutes?

    Barrett is always going to back DCE no matter what's going on. I didn't know that about Lane either. Getting juicy.

    I think Nicholls. Has been solid 30+ last two weeks with Surgess out. Murray out too shouldn't hurt him too much. Not up on the Warriors rotation but I couldn't see Papali getting more minutes than Nicholls would.

    TPJ is going to hit back to form tonight. Last week was just a reintroduction to footy. Now he’s good to go. Lodge will also be monitored this game due to the rib concerns. TPJ 50+ points tonight. Lodge for his usual 30-odd. Cheers

    Not a problem just yet as long as you have a clear plan of when you want to use your remaining trades.

    ie; use 8 between now and round 13.
    use 8 between round 13 and 18
    use 6 to finalise team
    keep 3 for injuries/suspensions once final team is achieved.

    In saying that I reckon Sao to Rein is your best bet. TPJ may lose cash but at least he seems to be in the 17 permanently which means you could use him as back up if needed.
    Sao may not lose cash but he's also not a positive sitting there doing nothing and not scoring you any points as a EMG if you need it.

    Thanks! I really appreciate the help!

    I couldn't do a straight upgrade from JT to a gun half so I decided to give JMK a run in the 17 for the week. 
    I'll have $$$ for an upgrade after this weekend, with SJ out and a sword hanging above DCE's head, I think that worked out ok. JMK posting a season high was beyond expectations... #winning

    Like a true professional mans professional. Nothing less from the hairie one.

    @Mulvy - that still counts. U effectively chose him.

    Yeah, quite a bit of rain here at the moment, and not letting up.

    Might switch Isaako to Kennar with this weather.

    Thinking a benched TPJ is a trade over Rochow, however a starting TPJ is a hold over Rochow? Am I thinking too much about that?
