Go against the grain and get RJ in

I'm tempted. But what has changed to make us all think he's worth the purchase??

Plays 17 pretty much it

Haha oh right I was expecting a positional change.

Also I already own Fitzgibbon who only scores well with tries, not sure I can handle another haha

Cook gets me the lowest captain total for the year for me.. Not too bad though. Surgess and Arey made up for it.

Getting more and more tempted by Gutho as a WFB/back up half option, looked pretty good last night. Will still wait on him, with Moses coming back soon I don't know where he will end up, should be full back I guess. Could be an option as a cut price POD. Just not sure he can maintain a 40 average from here out in this team.

Your lowest captain pick is 53 for the year? God damn, I had several below 50 including a score of 16.

Also Terepo will have to go down as one of the biggest misses. Just keeps churning it out

What happened to Brown last night lads? I watched the first 30 minutes and he was going at about a point a minute, running hard, breaking tackles, etc. Then see his final score (but more surprisingly his minutes). Clearly Souths dominated but did he run out of puff a bit?

He copped a knock in the 2nd half, but stayed on the field for a bit doing nothing before getting subbed, so his minutes played are an exaggeration of what he actually did.

BTW, is it only me who can't see the meters gained and kick meters stats on the match centre on the desktop version of the NRL site?

Ah thanks mate, makes sense. He was looking devastating early.

Copped a knock early in the 2nd half but played through it. Also there was 13 tries scored so he spent a lot of that 70 minutes under the posts watching shots at goal. In a regular flowing game from similar minutes you could expect a 55+

156/3. Crichton, Reynolds and Cook.

Traded Murray to Harris, fingers crossed.

164/3. Gotta be happy with that!

209/3 - Cook (c), Crichton, A-Rey.

A-Rey standing up to prop up Crichton's pathetic 37 points. I'll be a happier if they give Crichton's ta which is probably a 50/50 call.
