    I’m captaining Smith because he’s legitimately going to be doing everything for the Storm in attack, as well as organising defence.

    I can't wait for my opponents cries of foul play after he's been thoroughly benchwanked

    Took the gamble on SJ last week. I am a sucker for "He is due". Smith coming of 3 big scores so he is due for a sub 60. SJ coming off 2 lower scores so he is due for a 70+ game.

    James better play with the Cordner news. I guess Cordner doesn't need to train.

    - Also did not realise Sam Williams is in at half and Sezer on the bench
    That's gotta be good news for Sua with another 4 days recovery time.

    Trades done. 5 trades left. 139k itb. 7 playing pre outs. 198 rank.
    Harris > SJ
    Tuala > Holland
    Cleary > Aitken

    Worth dumping soro for a 212k nuff that plays this week? Only other thing in considering

    Benchwankery - last by eround I had 4 players scoring from positions 18-21. You are all late on the bandwagon

    I have Fonua/Cleary/Harris > Holland/SJ/Tapine

    Can't see the other cashouts being as useful.

    Will there be any teams in the top 100 not have SJ after trade in's this week?

    Its probably not going to matter whether he scores well or not, unless you captain him and he fails badly.

    Sounds like not participating in bench wankery would mean a false representation of ranking over the weekend depending on how many partake.

    I'm not doing bench wankery, not because I'm against it, but just because I don't trust fanhub. (i know milch has down it successfully already). Also I can't stand to watch my ranking fall even if I know it will immediately drop at the start of the last game.
