You used to be able to do it on iPhones, but not anymore. Which is clearly fuckin dumb. But hey, anyone surprised?

Its fucken shit! Why do i want to see where i placed in that round, I want to know how many places I have risen/fallen each week

dumb cunts

Sorry for all the rugby videos but its a quiet day and this is quite funny

Got 3 trades left, 161K ITB, placed 642nd overall. I do want to use one more trade this week, but after that my side is set.

I don't have the cash to go from AJ Brimson to James Tedesco, but I'm seriously considering trading out RTS for him, since I think he'll explode in the run home while RTS only does well when the Warriors play well and I don't think he'll be that great.

As for AJ Brimson, is it worth it to trade him to Leilua as a hail mary (to only be played on matchups or if Aitken and Marsters are both hurt) or just trade him to a 212k player and use the cash for my last trade (which would open up loophole opportunities)



Current team is:

Smith
Ese'ese, Taupau
RMartin, Taumalolo, Jurbo
Widdop, A Reynolds
Marsters, Aitken
Ponga, Turbo, RTS

Cook, SJ, Arrow, Kikau

Hayne, Johnston, Brimson, L Lewis

I would keep Brimson as he's getting better & better.
I would trade RTS to Tedesco. I just noticed RTS is up against the Titans this week where he usually scores well & Tedesco is up against the Dragons so you could wait a week for that trade. Ponga apparently due back this week so your 3 wfb's all have better games than Tedesco has.

Haha 4 hookers on the bench and enough cover in the EME for small suspensions/injuries.

So pleasing

So had Farah

AFAIK Liu was rested because of back issues

So on my computer I can visit individual rounds. Still won't help what you want as it only shows you're round score and round rank.

dumber kents

I'd think do nothing this week Bethany B. You have a solid team with good injury cover but I'd think saving those trades instead of chasing points at this stage of the season works. What if CS9 and Cook both get injured in the next few weeks? Use trades now and your ranking starts to not be so good because you can't replace these high priced players. Hold.

Widdop is the weakest link in your starting 17. I'd single trade to the best you can afford -(DCE or Munster) or bring SJ in to halves and go Widdop to Surgess/Vaughan. Keep 2 trades for injuries.

Why not take a gamble on Holmes? He’s on bloody fire right now. Can see him scoring a double against the broncos!

I'd prefer to keep Widdop, as the Dragons have a really good draw. The only reason I would trade him is if Cleary gets better (and him having the goalkicking back is a good sign), though Cleary has a BE of 66 and Widdop has a BE of 24 so I'll wait and see for that.

I was going to ask about that. I got Holmes way back (round 7) and with Pongas recent injury I kept him once he was done making cash.

I have Ponga, Tedesco, TTurbo and Holmes and I genuinely enjoy watching Holmes now. Dugan coming back in is the worry for me but I’m tempted to keep Holmes over tedesco or TTurbo. Lately he’s super involved and the tries are pouring in. Will have some low scores in him but it’s fun to watch.

Rapana is also a bit of a POD choice. Any thoughts on what the ideal WFB to have now is? Realise it’s Ponga, Tedesco, TTurbo on season averages but if I had a fresh choice now I’d be tempted by Holmes

I got Holmes when he hit $307k I think it was, my buy of the season! When Ponga is back, and having Teddy and RTS, I'm thinking of having RTS as the man on the pine..

Fantasy is boring during the week when you don't need to trade anyone
