I hope his score last week was an anomoly.  I know he missed game time but hoping he's back to 50+.

Apparently he didn't train going from this article from Sydney Morning Herald. All HIA tigers will be given until game time https://www.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/dazed-tigers-to-be-given-until-kick-off-to-pass-concussion-tests-20180725-p4ztio.html

Going by this, doesn't sound too good. At least they play the third game.

Yeah lots of options to trade him to for those who have some trades handy.
Don't want Holland/Lachlan Lewis/Brimson coming in for 25-35 points when I can bring in a player who should hit 50+

JTurbo will be my pick I think.

I don't really think he's worth trading though.

If he's out, it will only be a week you'd think. Not worth flicking away

Depends on your trade situation and what you expect them to score.

You miss 55+- points. spread that over six weeks and that's 9 points a week.
Trade in someone else you think will average as good as Farah (ie; JTurbo)

If he is out, I might go through with my MBye to Kikau trade and hold Farah.

I have the option of playing Arrow so will go that way most likely.

If you've got 4+ trades then yeah a trade may work

If Farah is out, I'll put arrow back in.

Should still be a 50+ scorer for the rest of the season so it's a big call to trade him just due to one week.

Very interested to hear thoughts on how you would rank the forwards going forward until end of season.

Lolo, Fifita, James, Kikau, Burgess and Brown

I'm gonna captain SJ because reasons hehe

I will chicken out but have been thinking about doing this all week.

If Farah is out I'll just play JFH or Cleary. At least Farah plays before those 2 so I don't have to rush a choice

Im gonna say in terms of total points till the end of the season:

Fifita, Brown, Lolo, James, Burgess, Kikau

Some odd choices here, but I'll answer:

Lolo - no good, Tui is playing reserve grade at the moment, out of favour.
Fifita - off the bench for the broncos. won't score well
James - now that Cleary is back, stay clear of James Maloney
Kikau - Best of the lot here
Burgess - Georgey boy hasn't been the same since 2014. Avoid
Brown - Nu or Lewis? Neither are great, stay clear.

I think you have confirmed my Kikau trade in.

I thought he meant James Roberts. Easily the worst hair in the league.
