    Anyway, Surgess sucked so should I play Mbye or Lewis instead? Neither fills me with large amounts of hope that they can beat 37. But probably need to take the risk. Thoughts?

    You can't spell zorasdoamin without "raz mods".

    Fuck dude thats tough. Lewis should beat that.  I think Tigers get up too so I think MBye could match, but Lewis should be a safer option.

    I also love the "Could someone ask Craig Bellamy to stop diagnosing players..." after he gave his assessment in the Presser.

    I hope you hold on Zora. It would be well deserved! #teamzora100%


    Fitzy for a hattrick and you'll be back in it

    Zora's got a bit of a buffer, should be able to hold on to the lead, but team Junior is closing the gap with Turbo's score.

    Do you think the safe option is the best option in my position? I've been playing it safe for 14 weeks but now someone has caught up and I don't know what to do. Keep playing safe or take the high risk option and hope Mbye has a game like his first half last week, instead of Luke his 2nd half?

    This is very true.
    You also can't spell it without "rad zooman SI".

    I don’t know mate.  Im in a similar situation with my work league.  I couldn't imagine how you feel.  Id probably throw caution to the wind.  Ive played it safe the whole time too and bow its fucking me.  Gotta take some risks i think.

    There is still 2 more rounds after the rest of this one has played out. No need to make big risks yet Zora, play the safe options for now. Just my opinion, you have played great all year.

    I've been paying it safe for too long as well. Turbo was on my list of players to buy after Origin but I decided against it only because no one else in the top 10 had him and I was trying to avoid PODs Mad
    I think I'm leaving towards playing Mbye to try to make up some points. Worst case scenario, he scores 30 points less than Surgess. Best case, he scores 60 points more Very Happy
    Now that that's decided, everyone should put their house on Lewis for a hat trick because that's the way things go for me these days.

    Thanks for your advice Very Happy
    What would you classify as the safe option this week?
    Taking Surgess's 37?
    Playing Lewis instead?
    Is playing Mbye too risky do you think?

    I'm over thinking excepting now which means it's bound to turn out badly.

    Mate - you got to the top doing what you do .... listen to yourself. If you're wrong then at least you only have yourself to blame, we all know that anything can happen - best of luck Smile
