Having Lolo as captain and with a beady eye on him I noticed he has caught the J.Turbo disease of passing just before the line.

Considering he was distributing the ball to his useless centres thru Thurston this is disconcerting to say the least.

They won there last game by powering up the middle, WTF change that and rely on O'Neill to get you home?

I noticed this too. You're down by 8 with 4 minutes to go and your biggest most powerful runner is passing it out wide? Makes no sense. This team is really imploding. JT played a year too long.

yeah hampton been bit of revelation there. agree about Fohnua he seemed like he was in everything. looks like a target next week.

as far as i'm concerned cow's problem comes predominately down to JT and scott, as much as it pains me to say. losing those two forced the team to play differently to how we have been for last 3/4 years now, which all other teams had adjusted to.

Time to go you reckon?

As for Tolo, im gud with his score. Got a bit excited and captained him, but i brought him in for his average not just tonights score.

Oh and Tolo (C) too.

Thank God your breasts survived.

He had to, with the Boys' needing 2 scores late no point carting it up through the middle wasting time

He could have pulled finger and gave it a go to crack them through the middle once or twice. Shows his first stint was too long and fucked him for the rest of the game.

A loophole inside a loophole.
This game is really silly.

@WL

What trades did you make this week? Lol

From 50/60 out late in the tackle counts there's no point, best chance is out wide, Granville needs to get it to him early, TBF to Tigers and Marshall they were pinning them back so Boy's were relying on backs bringing the ball back from deep

Take Thommo's 39 or take a chance on Martin scoring well again, hmm?

How many people traded out Arrow? I did and I hope I don't regret it,can always get him back in later I suppose

Just 1 so far = Arrow out - Taumalolo in

Just depends on how many minutes he gets if he stays at lock. If Thompson updates to 40 or over I'd take that.

I'd take that 39 and run, Martins minutes up in the air at lock, Jackson only got 45 last week

I think anyone wanting Tolo or Fifi did with the thought of trading him back in. You’d THINK he’d drop maybe another 30k before rising again, but the bloke is a beast.

I did as well. He looks like a player who hides the pain and carries on i.e. Fensom. I will be happy to be proven wrong as I like his style of play and guts.

He may only miss one game but his injuries are torrid and if his club does not look after him it will be to his detriment later on.

Fantasy wise owners are now going to cringe every time he hurls himself into the fray. I went S.Burgess and hope common sense prevails for at least 4 to 5 rounds.

Yeah Wolfie, bird in the hand I suppose. The problem with a mediocre captain score early in the round means you get a long time to stare at it over the weekend

as other results come in. I thought Lolo would kill it tonight. Had Hess for a try in my multi as well so quietly simmering at the moment.

Hess was so close mate. And Tolo was just disappointing in the second half. I own him too, didn't captain him but not all that happy with his score.

I believe I will take your advice Welshy and thanks. I still have Aubbs to go in my centres!!

Who did you give the C Wolfie?

Went Cook mate, but I'm not confident for some reason. Wish I went Smith now actually.

Was secretly hoping Bolton got 69 points tonight.
