If Boyd does play Origin, which he is expected to, I wonder if Bennett will rest him after the games? Isaako could pinch a few games if that’s the case. But let’s all hope Boyd doesn’t play Origin!

Kahu?

I've swung back to Adam Reynolds and Martin Taupau.

I realise Taupau is at a pretty wild price, but I reckon he might continue to play big mins and bust big scores.

Hey chaps, just a bit of a different question to see if someone has some good logic about which way to go here;

I have J.Leilua, Hiku and D.Walker in my team. Terrible choices aside, who would you play if you had to play two? Leilua is a certainty, so it’s between the other two. I played Walker last week and lost 20 points for that choice.

At the moment I’ve promoted Hiku but is Walker due a massive score as manly carve up Melbourne? Will he only spend half the game in the halves?

Or will Hiku our on three tries against the mighty eels?

Who’s your choice in this rookie dilemma?

mickspicks wrote:Interesting stat here. The only half against the storm to score over 50 this year is Brooks. Frawley got a 48. The rest are in the 30s.

Its not that interesting. Most halves don't score 50 against anyone.

And the ones that do (SJ, DCE, Cleary, even Corey Norman) haven't played against Melbourne yet.

I'm dying for a beer. Is it time for kick off yet?

I just want my bloody trades and captain choice locked in so I cant do anything silly!

I think im going to trade in koro. Seems like so obvious to me almost a little too good to be true. What am i missing?

Why do you think it's too good to be true and obvious?

off topic but Saturday night was the first time I had a drink in five weeks before that. Enjoyed it without going over the top. Was nice.

Kick off 7:50pm and can't come soon enough (actually give me time to mull over my trades for at least another 2 hrs plz)

Actually, besides those two 23 scores he looks good. Has me thinking. Is he considered a keeper though?

If he reduces his missed tackles he could score 50.

Yes, perhaps an exaggeration
More correctly, my bench sucks with Smith out.

Too many options. Now I don't mind the look of Koro in the halves. My Thursday afternoon options are now still;

Maloney - Reynolds
Rein - Crichton

or now

Maloney - Koro
Kikau - Fifita

Hmm....

Man, that's a tough one. I would probably take Koro Fifita of those two options.

Please stand by for my question lol.

UP for Crichton and Korisau/Reynolds

or

DOWN for Tohu and Cleary

I think RFM and Maloney make way for them.

@luckynumber8 long term, Cleary and Harris

Just realized I'm committed to the trade tonight since Panthers are up first :/

Priced at 47. Season average of 50.

Some value there. Now is the time to get him if you want him, as the 2 weeks of crap scores are about to go out of his BE calcs.
