It'll all depend on the carryover points. They'll fight it if it's a chance of benefiting them next year.

He doesn't have any.

If he takes the week he'll have 50 next year though. Better off fighting it and even if he loses he'll have none next year

Yeah that actually would make sense.  Saying that though, last thing they would want is the wooden spoon inJT's swansong year.

Ah, I didn't know thats how it works. Good point! With nothing to lose you'd absolutely expect them to fight it huh!

Hope he misses two weeks hehe

Zero or two weeks for me. Either play him or trade him.

Yup either is good

If Tolo is gone I have cover in Martin arrow or Kikau anyways. Or I could sell him for a gun WFB or Hlf and have some cover there

Missing 2 weeks would be a real test for those with a single trade.  I feel if you have 2 or more trades and he's gone for two weeks, he's a trade.

I don't think Fantasy is high on the Cowboys pros and cons list.

I really want to make a trade but not enough money ITB to do anything significant and no players that really need to go. Would like to get rid of Cotric or at least bench him and bring in someone a little more consistent with a higher roof.

Tipping wise - Both of tonights games are a bit iffy. I think Warriors at home and needing to find some form before the finals they will come out flying against the knights who will grind home late but it wont be enough. I also think with no Rennings and no Graham (Kennar and Burns coming in on the wings) I think Roosters will win in a nailbiter. Rabbitohs are "expected" to win every game from here on so there is a lot of pressure on their shoulders and i think Roosters are flying under the radar a little in Third spot. Warriors and Roosters for me tonight lads! Fizz and Cordner FTS for both games.

Hey Mr Green

How are you going? Your wife told me that you play fantasy NRL? Awesome! I'm in 2nd - whats your rank?

Just a quick email to ask if you have any trades left considering the Taumalolo situation. If he contests it and loses then we have a tough trade decision to make.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Good work VK.  Keep us posted!

Wacko reckons Marshall will not play with Fonua playing and Naiqama to FB and MBye to halves.

He also reckon Fifita still has to pass concussion protocols and hasn't trained.

So is he suggesting Marshall out, Fonua in, Naigqama FB and Mbye to 6/7.

Yeah, that's it.

TBH i actually dont mind that, although i would go Nofo FB, Naiqama Wing, Fonua CTR

Nofo at FB, don't tempt me.

Fifita obviously is a major concern, but surely 7 day turnaround he'd be right.

Yeah he still has till Sunday afternoon, probably a blessing in disguise. More time to rest his knee also. If he is out Arrow will just come into starting back and Martin will go onto the bench.
