    I’m trading Arrow out, expecting him to drop some cash and then pick him up again after Round 13. Watch him score 90+ on his return.

    Forget it mate, delete that thought as it belongs in a category with tongue kissing your sister. Pritchard back soon as his injury is not that bad

    Renouf Toomaga is averaging 56 points* per game in NSW CUP. Plays around 55mins a week. That said, hard to see him getting the minutes in NRL?

    *has 6 tries/6 line breaks, in his 6 appearances this year.

    Cameron King in the 18 is also a scary thought. BA has been changing his team like I change my undies this year

    Most are expecting King to hooker, Smith to bench.

    He's only made one change all year? Can't be right.

    A shame he will be immediately dropped for Tolman most likely. Either him or Martin.

    Re Brimson and his stats from https://www.qrl.com.au/players/intrust-super-cup/tweed-heads-seagulls/alexander-brimson/
    he played 4 games at 5/8 for 4 losses (as already mentioned) but his average at this position is only approximately 30.

    EDIT. tries not included

    Cheers Milch! Those are definitely in my sights but tossing up the risk as the Martin call last week had better reward:risk ratio, but I don't see that here. Plus I'd be forgoing a keeper trade in to bring a potential dud.

    Anybody know why To'omaga is coming in and how secure his spot it? Seems like he's got way too much competition and will likely get no game time

    Brimson, just can't see him scoring that well. I don't see the Titans suddenly turning into a team playing good footy. Ash Taylor is struggling, the whole team is struggling. The coach seems to have nfi (armchair expert opinion). Against Storm at Suncorp stadium off a loss, I fear for them.

    Honestly.. Wednesday is the worst day for Fantasy

    Thursday - 1 game
    Friday - 2 games
    Saturday - 3 games
    Sunday - 2 games
    Monday - check out rankings and decide on trades
    Tuesday - Team lists
    Wednesday - sod all!

    He has changed the make up of the team a few times I am sure of it? i.e alvaro in and out of starting side.

    Cheers Milch,

    I wasn't saying he won't make it, just trying to figure out who goes first out of Maloney/Havili.

    One goes this week to Surgess/Taupau most likely Surgess and the other becomes Tolo next week.

    What are your thoughts on Brock Lamb?

    Ooo you are the first person i've seen to be preferencing Surgess over Lolo. I too am thinking of doing likewise, though I think our opinions are unpopular.
    Can anyone confirm that Surgess BE is 41, Lolo 51?

    It's not like Sam is coming back from injury and will limit his gametime or effort- he is the kind of player who pents up the 2 games he sat out and unleashes all three games in one shift when he hits the field Laugh 3
    His 67 against the Raiders was in 61 minutes and he only came off because the game was won, I expect him to play for 70-80 with a close one.
    I think he is the guy I bring in this week, just in case he bangs out a 70 and raises his price 40k.

    ...Mind you, this is all just gut feeling. Not like Taumalolo can't find 70 easily, and up against a struggling Tigers rather than the Dragons.

    I have 17 players for this round! That is normally something to get excited about in round 23, not round 10 or 11 :/

    I need to bring in a keeper WFB to replace Mbye. At the moment I am toying with just bringing in Brimson as a one week placeholder in order to give me another round to assess candidates, but I could jump the gun and bring in RTS instead. Would free up my 2 trades for next week, which would be ideal.

    Thoughts on RTS? Any owners have tribulations they want to share?
    I understand that only the overall average matters, but have you ever seen such consistently inconsistent scoring in your life?:

    Averaged 63 rounds 1-3
    Averaged 23 rounds 4-7
    Averaged 56 rounds 8-9

    That's 5 games averaging 60 with a run of 4 games in a row averaging 23 in between!
    So hard to get a handle on. That's the only reason why I am considering a Brimson cashout to buy time. Even if he rises 40k it might be worth it for the peace of mind. If I brought him in and he scored 14 I would be devastated. Or is it more the case that the 14-90 range will continue and you just need to ride the rollercoaster?
