This is my short list for next week and have no idea which way to go. McCullough and Teddy both probably play origin

Teddy doesn’t play Origin this year mate, trust me. Game One anyway.

FINALLY - The Bronchose 17 finally put it together!

1035 pending updates. Captain Ponga, Cook and new recruit Fifi leading the way.

The diabolical Koro and Havilli dragging arse.

60th for the round and jumped up nearly 2000 positions in all (which is not hard from how far back I started the round!).

Kept Cogger and Fonua as cashies, so I can finally concentrate on a tactical trade of Rein and possibly Havilli this week.

Kikau/JFH - Brimson
Havilli - Fifita

He’s well on track to being the first one million dollar player this year!

With my season already written off, I'll be tempted to sell him for a base price cashout just to flash the cash!!!

Money in the bank

But my team just sank

Selling my Fifi

Like my wife don’t need me

Fifita definitely needs to be in my team but only if I can afford him after getting the rest of my squad. Would be a waste blowing all my money and peaked cows without having a balanced squad. It's impressive how well he's playing. Looks like him and Cook will cross the 1 mil together

I just don't think he can wait any longer mate. Don't see him getting any cheaper either.

@Wolfking He'll hover mid 900s which I think is too much when I could use the same bank to turn 4 guys like Kikau and JFH into guns. Getting 4 guns means I'm sharing the risk too rather than hoping Fifita doesn't have a bad game. Once I upgrade the 7-8 non-gun players in my team, I'll pay premium for him. Just can't justify the price while holding players like Isaako, JFH, JMK, and TPJ.

Updates look like they're in already, Fifita 65, Martin 60 etc.

lost 8 points from those updates

Zora back on top with those updates. Nice work

Fifi 65
Martin 60
Ramien 48
JMK 44
MBye 44
Gallen 40
Dugan 31
Capewell 31
Holmes 20


JDB 74

McInnes 48
Friz 47
BJ 42
Hunt 40
Rapa 37
Havilli 34
Croker 33

Damn Fifita downdate to 65 hurt to the tune of 200 ranks. Another captaincy fail.

952 still decent with Rein’s 8 and Tlolo very underwhelming for me on debut

Another League 3 H2H loss on the back off updates. Ffs

Makes sense. Although the only guns I'm seeing that I don't have are creeping up and up. Maybe 950K is a little too much. I'll take the emotion away and see what the week brings. Looking at my team, with hopefully RFM back and Smith, I shouldn't have to trade. Just depends if I want to bring more round 13 numbers in, which would be Fifi, Taupau or DCE.

Fucking hell, just seen Brock Lamb has a fractured cheekbone. That Cogger to Lamb trade was genius.

@Wolfking Yeah I'm miffed I didn't get him, and not owning him cost me 300 ranks in that last game :/ but we missed the value point for him so you'll only be getting the points if you pay that much. It is good to see that Gallen didn't impact his game too much though

Think I might turn Rein into one of JDB or Harris

WTF on those updates!?!?

I lost 16 pts! Still kept the tonne, but Fifi and BJ losing a bucketload is not helpful. Went from 60th for the round to 120th.

I'll pull my head back in now.
