    Smith
    Fifita Taupau
    Tolo JTurbo Crichton
    SJ ARey
    Marsters Aitken
    Mitchell Teddy Ponga

    Cook Martin Farah Arrow

    MBye Holland Clifford Red Dot

    If Ponga plays lads, do I;

    A. Arrow - McInnes (keep Mye 18th man but then have no front row cover)

    or

    B. MBye - Surgess/Gal/Cleary (keep Arrow 18th man and loop options)

    or

    C. Hold and loop MBye and Arrow and then get Macca for Mye next week

    If Ponga doesn't play, I'll probably play MBye and might do A.

    Cheers lads.

    Cheers, I'm liking that too.  Putting Cleary starting means I can have a look at SJ and if he bombs, roll the dice with Arrow.

    Great run home for the Panthers aside from the Storm in round 25.

    Yeah, I'm keen on Cleary now especially with their run home. Raiders, Titans, Knights, Warriors and Storm.

    You asked me post my team about Arrow>Cleary no 2RF/FRF cover or Fifi or similar or even SJ>Cleary. Still favour Arrow>Cleary and 2 trades for forward cover. Team after Cleary trade

    CS9 C 
    Kikau Kapow
    Martin Lolo James
    Arey Cleary
    Holland Mitchell
    Ponga Teddy RTS

    Cook Mcinnes Farah DCE

    SJ Naiqama Lewis Aekins 

    Other dilemma is play DCE or SJ leaning DCE

    Ha, seems like I'm subconsciously thinking the same way as you now mate. 4 halves does seem like a lot though in reality with no cover but with two trades, seems like you can get away with it. Tossing up the same thoughts myself. I guess it comes down to keeping Arrow or SJ really mate. Seems more sensible to keep Arrow with DCE sitting there also, but I guess it's more money saved. Nice team.

    Yeah, Cleary looks good, and such a good price at the moment.

    Thoughts on trading Ryan James to Cook? Is that a worthy upgrade? (I was going to trade Arrow but he's not worth enough to get Cook in one trade)

    Still leaves me with Arrow starting and Martin + Fisher-Harris in Emergency

    Any team would be shite with Farah in the halves.  Dunno why he thinks he can be a half.

    From what I read, it sounded like Benji was very keen to play.
    If Liddle plays, can he play a bit of lock, or Farah to lock when Liddle comes on? or even Farah to 5/8 and Benji gets a rest at the end of the game.


    When was that ? I haven't seen anthing confirming what has happend

    Wests Tigers co-captain Benji Marshall will play one of the most emotional matches of his NRL career on Friday after the death of his grandfather in New Zealand.
    Marshall was granted personal leave this week to say his farewell in his home country, but has been declared a certain starter to take on Newcastle.
    "He missed the one session which is not unusual for Benji anyway. He was back for our main session yesterday," Cleary said on Thursday.
    Marshall, who will head back across the ditch after the match for the funeral on Saturday, considered his grandfather his number one fan.
