Oh man. Those are the worst updates ever.

Sooooo, -6 and -3 for RFM and JMK. Kents. Oh but don't worry, Milf upgraded by 1

I think it's time to upgrade to a better WFB. JMK can't even get 30 at hooker for over an hour and Thompson has peaked. Isaako isn't even an option to play in my 17 anymore.

What's your poison HS? Balter XPA is my favourite at the moment, but it's pricy.

Now there's a good lad! This guy right here.

Biggie Juice has been a favourite of late. Cheeky Monkeys Imperial Red was a big winner.

Heading into winter I'll be stocking up on stouts and Roger Ramjet is my all time favourite.

33 at CTR isnt terrible, many others will score much worse this weekend

No idea i thought he was outstanding in defence and had his few customary TBs

agreed, anything over 30 I'm happy with

Yeah I played Hiku over him so watch Hiku miss 10 tackles and score 10 points less. I have almost 300k ITB so my next two upgrades are my second centre to partner Aitken and a 3rd WFB to partner Teddy and Ponga. Hiku/Thompson/Isaako/JMK need to all go soon.

Yeah nah Ramesh was on the XXXX for these ones for sure

Martin will be around $290k next week. Still worth bringing in, you'd think.

For all my north Queenslanders. Great northern all the way

Great Northern Super Crisp is currently my favourite beer and has been for the last few years. Funnily enough, I cant stand the Great Northern full strength. It was the same though with Crowns before Crown Gold got deleted. Crown Gold was Crown's mid strength for about 5 years and GN mid is the closest thing I have ever found to it. But I couldn't stand normal Crownies.

What do you mean pseudo?

I'm okay with anything that makes me feel better about myself, no matter how deluded it isin everyone else's reality.

CTRs are my target this week, brought in a superPOD CTR last week and bringing in 2 more of them this week, all 3 are <1% ownership.

Have only seen 1 of the 3 discussed here at all, plan to keep it that way.

Going massive POD at most positions, as the best opportunity to catch up ground.

capewell, leutele and lafai? really?

suli, holland and lawton are the only others selected that are under 1% ownership

Yep. Capewell has been a potential Centre target all year based on last season, and the fact he has been thereabouts as a starter. The fact he hasn't started many is the reason for his low ownership.

Lafai has been the bloke we have all been waiting for every season since 2014 to come good.

The Leutelecopter is a myth, will never string more than a few good games together Fantasy wise.

As for the others, no way anyone picks Suli yet. Or EVER!

Well that was underwhelming haha

Martin in EME almost scoring more than JMK and RFM combined! Oh well thems the breaks.

I had been holding off Tommy Turbo since he has origin, but he might need to come in now. Could also buy JMK and hope he improves from todays score. What other options are people running with at the back?

Take a look at JAC @Pookus McFly - he looks set to make over a hundred K in the coming weeks and could easily bang out another one or two huge scores to go with his average 30 or 40.... a stepping stone at the least.

1/43 no captain played... worse week ever!

Anyone thinking of Cotric or Croker this week or next?

Had been rating Croker a notch above Cotric, but since Cotric's debut last year, they've averaged pretty much the same.

Cotric 38.2 from 24 games.
Croker 37.8 from 22 games.

Both on 277 points this season.

Cotric currently 34k cheaper, likely to get a bit closer after this week, but has the lower ownership and dual position may come in useful at some point.

Think I might've convinced myself to go Cotric for Isaako next week.
