HomeThe fantasy gods must not want me to trade in Turbo because they keep throwing my players out of action. Cook, Crichton & now Martin. Well I'll call their bluff & tell them I'll still get Turbo but then I'll buy Jahrome Hughes instead. Suck on that fantasy gods.

WTF is going on, its turning into the week from hell, bad scores last night, no Cook, Crichton and now Martin.
I wonder how many people won't field 17 this week, I will be one of them if I get 1 more casualty, justifying the reason I think 21 man squads are too small. (which is just one of the things I complained about in the survey. If anyone hasn't done the survey, don't forget, this is your chance to voice an opinion where it will count, not just in here with us fellow whingers, get to it)

On the topic of the survey, If they keep the same format next year, I don’t see how you will be able to buy a full team in round one. The only way I can see it happening is if they reset starting prices. Even mid-range players are about 550k. Even low-end players are high 400k! There’s always a few cows, but if you’re stuck with putting in 500k players who aren’t going to earn money, you’ll be trapped. Maybe that’s just me being dramatic.

With Ma'u and Martin both being ruled out, I need a 2RF cover. Is Su'a still a good pick? Plays rnd 17 as well. Any thoughts?

Bennett likes him. TPJ seems part of the front row rotation again. Only worry is when Gillett comes back.

They had it working last year so they should easily be able to reproduce that platform, thats how I'm looking at it

Okay the 2RF options down to Su'a or Harris.
Not intending to make money. They are just being used to get 45 points this round and 45 Rnd 17 and after that remain the 18th player in my final team.
Gillet still a month away so Su'a should be fine for Rnd 17.
If Harris misses rnd 16 after Denver test, I am not relying on his score.
Anything I missed which might make me decide either way?

Hampton to line up for the Northern Pride in reserve grade. What the hell has he done as he has been 1 of the Cowboys best. Did he knock out Green or something.

His defence has been pretty rubbish. But I agree, he’s been great! Cows are running a four forward bench though, could just be tactical.

Robbie Rochow #theboldshittruck is playing reserve grade right now where he belongs and where he should have been since the start of the year therefore would not have been traded into so many team creating so much heartbreak

Huh? Rochow made over 200k and averaged near 40 while I held him.
He was one of my success stories this season.
Praise be with the bald shit truck

That's why it's called easycoach.
