Taupau ain't the only one cracking the tonne this week

Yeah, it will be nice when Dugan does it this week.

Any chance Hastings is brought in for Croker it is it unlikely? Still have him on my EMG

The coach's hand might be forced. Time will tell.

MBye got gifted one extra TB to take his score to 38. I don't think there's was hardly any updates to players from that game at all by the looks. Kikiau 46, I think he was 44.

Haha, the Rugby League gods are funny bastards with Croker injured tonight.. They'll probably move Koro to 6 and bring in a tackle machine cash cow hooker (hopefully).

Happy with Cogger, haven't seen the match but assuming he won't be dropped after a good win?

Too many 30's and 40's for me this week, add in Dufty and Hiku I'm on 640 with Arrow, Rein and Thompson left. Might hit 800 if I'm lucky. Looking forward to having SJ and Harris back next week, and Surgess the following week.

Wanna flick Dufty next week, bloody hard deciding who for though.

These would be the options as I see it.

Hastings comes in as a straight swap.

Koroisau to 5/8 with Manase Fainu to hooker. He's apparently a gun who isn't in the system yet so would be bottom price.

Dylan Walker to 5/8 and Moses Suli comes in.

Tom Wright to 5/8.

I'd say the first 2 options are the more likely.

I still want to bring Soro in even though I can't play him for either Havilli or Rochow. Who should he come in for with the thinking I have Kennar and Croker to deal with in the coming weeks. Gotta be Rochow?

722 with arrow croker and rein to play. Jurbo getting sent off was such a punch in the dick.

As was aitkens 22.

@chucky sure I heard an interview with Barrett other day about suli being ready for his debut so would not be surprised to see Walker moved into the halves

I've got five out next week and the weekend ain't over yet. There's no way Dugan makes it through unscathed.

Not an Mbye owner but it is a shame to see his scores recorded inaccurately.. It makes you worried about the legitimacy of the game, especially if you lose a H2H by less than 10.

Also praying for Sorenson and Dugan to outscore Taumalolo :/ after DCE cost me last week, I am not hopeful..

@Mulvy thoughts and prayers my guy... Nobody deserves that

Barrett has definitely screwed himself re Hastings. How can he put Hastings back in when he stated that the team doesn't want to play with Hastings. This is the first year I've ever picked Jurbo & to get sin binned basically at the end of the game is very poor discipline from him. I'm going to say that Jurbo is a manus & a dick. I'm also a manus & a dick for selling Griffin haha but he went for Fifita.
Currently 682/13 cap Cook played with Fifita, Arrow, Rein, Thompson to play. I only have 2 players who scored less than 40 which were C. Murray & Kennar. I read Fifita will be named captain against the Titans today so I expect him to have a big game.

Weird to have only 3 players left to play on a Saturday morning.

I'll be looking at Ramien 416k ctr & Marsters 549k 2fr/ctr to see how they look as a possible Kennar replacement. Preferably I'd like to go with Ramien as he's closest to Kennar's price. Marsters has the added gk bonus but Wests don't score a lot of tries.
Last year I went with 2 premium ctrs (Mitchell/J. Croker) & it was a let down more times than not. Because you're paying top dollar you expect 40+ every week but because it's the ctr position scores fluctuate & sometimes cheaper ctrs outscore the premium ctr.

Yeah I only have 4 left. It feels weird because the last 2-3 weeks I've had 7-8 players playing on a Sunday.

549k is pretty much premium CTR price this season

Absolute chaos for my lads over night. Lost Croker, Gos and Edwards with long term injuries. 578 with Fifita Arrow Croker and Rein to come. Will be lucky if I hit 700

Unpopular opinion, but Dale Copley (set to return rd 9 or 10) is a reasonably decent shout at $444k.. He has only had two scores under 30 (40, 37, 24, 33, 18 and 37). I mean, at his price, I'd bring him in if I was desperate. He's not going to set the world on fire but for that price, I would be happy with it. But probably Ramien is a better shout.

I was actually going to start with him in round 1 as a bit of a pod because I've always been a fan of the way he plays but I think he got injured or something else came up. The only thing is he doesn't play round 13 or else I'd consider him.

at 4-6 weeks out, gosiewski is probably a sell. he will likely have made you 80k if you brought him in at bottom dollar which isnt too bad. about half of what you want, but now he might not even play the bye round which is 5 weeks out.

i also i dont think its guaranteed he gets his spot back once fit and will be looking at a cheapie in the coming weeks
