He had 1 run after 20 minutes so was more a statement than "complaining"

He's done well so far after a slow start.

Hiku has a habit of that. Gotta trust the Peta!

I own Tohu so watching him carefully. No idea how he's racked up a decent score... they keep cutting him out with the ball and he doesn't even seem to making that many tackles. No negatives so far though and I'll take it.

For me that is a good sign for a Fantasy player. He will be even more effective when SJ is back. He is a 50+ player but that head knock rhurt his average. Looked at him this week but his BE was pretty high and is cheap enough so I can get him and another upgrade hopefully.

Well I'll spew if Dugan plays. Traded out his 4-6 week injury and kept Brown for his 2 week injury. Get fucked.

Good to see turtle head back in the NRL.

Yeah it's unusual to see him start so well, usually he's on 5 after half an hour but hits back in the second half.

Whose bringing in Beale next week

Yeah I was looking at him this week, but decided to go with Surgess instead based on that and the fact he may miss a round for the NZ test. I was looking at grabbing him after Rd 13.

I kept both, and would love to see him back this week. But I have Hiku there for now at least until Round 13. My concern is Holmes played well last week at FB, even with letting in a try. So I could see Dugan back to CTR.

Gotta see how he plays presumably on the wing. Probs not.

Not sure how you can drop either of our wingers.

Can you drop either centre?

Possibly. Hiku is great on attack but a liability on defense. Kata is a bit rocks and diamonds.

Gelling was playing off the bench earlier in the year. No reason why Beale can't take that role and Tevaga gets dropped out of the 17.

Broncos: Staggs (debut off bench) in for Shibasaki
Roosters: 1-17

Broncos struggling that bad that Dave Stagg is returning aye?

Takarangi is frustrating.

In case you don't know, it's Kontoni Staggs. Haven't seen him play myself, but he's got good raps on him.

Is he the next.............?

Fuck we miss RTS and SJ, we have nothing on attack.

Staggs has a similar build to Matterson. Big lump of a lad. Scored last week, maybe even a double. Not even kidding, once he gets a good run at first grade he will be a buy in.
