Fainu still named with no reserve hooker bar MWright in the reserves.

Norman FB, Hayne wing, Guth centre, Salmon 5/8.

MWZ in for Thompson.  Fonua in the reserves.

No Liddle, he's number 18.

Gideon, Coote also named in the 21. Pretty sure gids has not been named all year. Possible late inclusion for the cows?

Poor Linnett >.< Its a bit confusing re Gids. It says Greeny is sort of dangling the carrot (implying he is almost there) yet also says he trained on the wing. #ByeO'Neill

Yeah, I thought that too. Didn't make a whole lot of sesne.

Gah fuck you Bennett,what am I supposed to do with Isaako now? Don’t really want him in my 17 unless he’s FB

Loop him. He plays first. Ezpz

At least he'll be kicking goals.

Ahhh no red dots. What a fail!

I don’t have any cover though so I can’t loop him. Might have to sell Fainu

Yeah, I probably will loop those two, but I think SJ pumps out a 50.  Is Turbo worth a trade with only two left over say McInnes?  I could trade Holland to Turbo and keep Aitken as backup even, just wouldn't have a WFB cover.  Aitken is a player I'd like to just cancel out, but Turbo would be a player I could cancel out also.

If winning you work comp is the priority I'd be saving both trades for another week.
Farah isn't playing for you so if you got McIness in you have the new problem of who not to play for him.
You got that far in front for a reason. I'd think be conservative this week and wait. Go far trades after this week. You have good cover but 4 injuries in the next two weeks could wipe your team.

Just calm down Norries.

That's ridiculous.
Surely it should be Noories.

Hey fellas, wanna win the grand final for my work league which will be a very close finish. Care to look over my team for any improvements that can be made.

3 Trades, 4k ITB.

Cook
Arrow Fifi
Brown Martin Lolo
Cleary DCE
Aikten Cotric
Teddy Ponga Trbo

Smith McInnes Fainu Farah
McCullough Kikau Tuala Lewis

Missing out on the consistent scoring of Jake Trbo, not to sure if I should make a play for him and go for a POD like Hess. Not real happy with centres, Aikten is so hit and miss. Thoughts and suggestions fellas? Cheers

I probably would save the trades mate (how far away is the final?)

Main reason is you have a team with 6 hookers, which means that while you technically have cover in each position, you dont have much flexibility at all. I'd be inclined to just hold those trades and be able to adjust if you need to prior to, or during any given round.

4 rounds (including this one) until the Finals mate. Same finals format as current NRL one. I got second so I get two bites of the cherry if I lose.

His names Chacca

I can't believe we all missed calling Coen Hess Chess.

Havent been able to get into the forum the last couple of days. Anything note worthy of Fifita or just a low scoring game for him?

I never even noticed that so well spotted.
