Sorry boys. Small stressing out over here. If ponga is out is it worth trading Arrow to Teddy? Then i would have Cotric has WBF/CTR cover moving forwards when ponga is back

If it avoids a 0 it might be worth it.

This has got to make (c)Farah even more tempting.

The Tigers can still make the 8. Newcastle will be a bit less structured. And Robbie is playing for his future.

I've had an awful season with captaincy, probably because I know fsck all, but I'm starting to feel like this is a good call.

Tigers are favourites for the game. I don't know how anyone could tip them with confidence

Deciding to trade Arrow.

Katoa to 212 Chump
Arrow to McInnes

Look alright? Leaves me with 4 trades.

Solid. Get a Rooster red dot if you can, if you're into some looping.

Fuck, if Holland goes shit, I'll have to keep MBye and play him if Ponga is out, but then means I have to play Arrow. Unless I trade him instead, but don't want to. Come on Holland!!!!!

It could be a bit round with Ponga out. Testing our cover etc. I think a big loop play will win the day - BOOO!

Nah, I just think it will come down to which WFB spud will go big. Brimson, Katoa, Holland etc. I mean, if Holland can somehow get two tries again and then Ponga is out, BOOM!

I have Rapana as cover, 2016 Rapana would be nice

WFB cover is easy I guess. It doesn't matter if it's Holland or TTurbo is your cover there scores boil down to luck.

Forwards would be very different.

Fox late mail saying Tohu is out after injuring his knee at training, the opposite knee that kept him out last week.

I'm banking on Brimson!

Yep, Harris out with knee injury

Someone has already suggested I get Cook, but I'm worried that will leave me with too many hookers (you wouldn't normally hear me say that ha ha)

Hey guys, looking for a little advice - I'm thinking I need to strengthen my backline - I have 3 trades left and 200k in the bank currently.

Was looking at trading perhaps Arrow + Isaako for the likes of Ponga and Mitchel? Or Marsters who also adds a bit of Forward cover. Also tossing up whether it would be better to keep Isaako and get rid of Cotric? Thoughts?

If you have any other thoughts on what I should do with the trades/cash... I'd love to hear them. Cheers

My current team is as follows

1.Tommy Turbo
2. RTS
3. Aitken
4. Cotric
5. Issako
6. S Johnson
7. A Reynolds
8. Fafita
9. Cam Smith
10. James
11. Taumalolo
12. Taupau
13. Nathan Brown

Bench Spots are -
1. Farah
2. R Martin
3. Fainu
4. Jai Arrow

EMG Bench -
1.Fisher-Harris
2.Brimson
3.Katoa
4.Tuala

Was it the roosters (JWH) that once called out taumalolo, and then lolo came out and owned them? Wondering if this might spur him on still.

Chance that Dugan plays?

Is Korosiau likely to return this season?

Hey dudes, got some decisions to make and not sure wtf to do. This is the order of my team right now:

Cook
Fifita TPJ
Tolo Brown Martin
ARey SJ
Mitchell (c) Isaako
RTS Hopoate Brimson
Smith McInnes Kikau Ponga
MBye Niukore Arrow Paseka

Q1: If Ponga is out, should I play MBye, Niukore or Arrow as 4th reserve?

Q2: Should I actually be playing MBye and Arrow in my 17? If so, for who? Niukore is probably the odd one out here so doesn’t matter as much.

Need someone taking over Thursday games first scorer as away from next Tuesday lads

Is Kaufusi worth it as a POD? I'm considering trading Jai Arrow to him and can't afford anyone better without burning my last trade.
