    Hoping Taumalolo goes huge next week to smite the guy in 2nd who sold him this week. And if Reynolds has a rest this week I will not complain.
    There’s only 2 weeks to go.
    You don’t need to be at the top for much longer, you’re in the home straight now. You can do it.
    LoLo will be freshened up after the week off.
    @SI, terrific score, well done.

    Can't complain with a score of just under 900 for the round.

    Sitting just inside the top 700 now. A big couple of weeks could put me inside that elusive top 500 Embarassed Laughing

    Who is gonna captain Cook or Smith this week??

    I'll be captaining Tolo - and reckon there'll be a fair few folks joining me on that.

    Picking a decent captain for these last 2 weeks is a fairly horrifying prospect.
    All my forwards have started getting benched randomly except for Cook and Jurbo. Cook looks tired and will probably get a rest mid game if they get a chance, and I'm not sure I trust Jurbo.
    RTS has been one of my most consistent lately but I'm not going there.
    Way too hard.

    2nd place sold him last week so if he goes well this would be excellent for me. But doubly bad if he bombs.
    He's needed tries in his last 2 games to get to a decent score...

    It's not every week that Tommy Turbo scores 100+ points. Your team should average about the same as Junior Mints and #teamVerbal the next couple rounds, hopefully you'll be able to hang on.

    Agreed. I'm hoping he'll try and crank out something special for a wooden spoon-avoiding JT-farewelling megamatch.

    Anyone keen on Luciano Leilua. The last 2 weeks scores are 60 & 83 including tries in both games which he seems to like the try line & he's probably locked for the 2fr until Vaughan returns. I don't know how far away Vaughan is from returning but with only 2 rounds left the Dragons might rest him until finals.

    People still holding trades are like Tigers supporters who think they'll make the 8.

    Thinking Tolo or Cleary.

    This is the game Cleary scored his 126 last year. Against the Warriors at Mt Smart.

    I'd happily use my last two trades on Smith and Reynolds. Will probably trade Reynolds anyway.

    Is it worth still bringing in Turbo? Or bring in a forward like James or Brown instead?
