    More likely Farah plays 5/8 and ET/Liddle share the hooker role with forward rotations

    Oh dear.  I wonder if Farah can be fantasy relevant in the halves.

    People with one trade left. When do you use it?

    With Alvaro down, im hoping Taupau has a slow week, and ill go Alvaro to Taupau.

    I have cover for most positions.

    So strengthening the 1-17 is still fairly important, if I can get that extra 10pts a round.

    I could cover one injury. Two would be bad

    If I had one trade left I'd be saving til the second to last round unless I had to use it for a season-ender for one of my guns.
    Maybe even the last round if there were rumours a big name fantasy player was to be rested.

    Agreed

    Definitely the window to be a bit cautious.

    I think ill aim at using last trade a round or two earlier than that. But you cant plan this, no point using a trade for the sake. It'll only be if there is a need for it.

    Anyone run out yet?

    Nothing official yet just saying he's 50/50. I don't imagine we'll know until the final team list because they'll probably give him right up to the final team list to prove his fitness.

    Should know earlier with reserve grade I'd say. If Meany plays that then Ponga is in, if not signs point to Ponga not playing.

    Nah, I'd stick with Farah mate. If farah is named at 5/8 however, then that's tough.

    Actually I was half asleep but I think I remember hearing on the Footy Show last night that Benji will play and fly back for the weekend? So I think Farah at hooker should be safe.

    Very good,

    I just can't shake the feeling that Arrow will smite the non believers this week

    I know, I'm torn on Arrow. A lot depends on Ponga for me though.

    Kinda wish I didn't play Tolman over Taumalolo and SJ but the latter two could still score around the same Tolman did. If Farah is named in the halves I'll play Taumalolo over him. Also Hoppa has been dog shit the past two weeks after his 98.. wtf.

    Problem for me is who does he come in for of I want to take a punt?

    Kikau, Surgess, Lolo, Levi.

    Probably Levi but I really think he will go 50+

    Levi is the one to leave out if you wanted to play Arrow.

    At least he didn't get a -1 after his big score like the week I picked up MBye.
