How many will you be playing otherwise?
I need to check out the loophole thread more often if there’s a way of playing any more.

Fiddy would have emptied the buffet by now I reckon.

1st season playing nrlf so no complaints. Glad I stumbled onto this forum. Great source of info and banter.

Tremendous score mate.

Am now in 3rd with my first ever week with a worse rank than the previous week. And my first week since round 8 not in 1st. Team sure picked a great time to be a piece of shit.

Might be a long shot but you still have a chance I reckon.
Left field Captain maybe.
Just make sure you find out who VK is captaining so he doesn't ruin that for you. At least you can't captain Isaako.

Chin up. Still a big chance. #teamZora!

We believe Zora, we believe! Gonna be a rough week but hopefully TLT goes your way. You have better cover at a quick glance?

SJ for captain next week. Everyone else is dead anyway!

So many worthy captain choices next week. Taupau or Fifita are a couple of smokies I'm thinking.

Sorry, typo. 16

league of filth update:

In true filth/Warriors fashion, after limping into the top eight via points differential I have somehow made my way into the grand final through some freak fluke tinny assed bullshit. My boys either continue this run that goes against any and all laws of nature or will fold under the pressure and freeze up like a Possum in the headlights of whatever juggernaut team I'm up against.

Think I'm brining in tohu for my last trade. Fancy him getting a try against the raiders.

So, I had Ponga in my WFBs, Cody at 18 and Holland at 21 and they've given me Holland's score. Anyone else with similar problem?

I am up against Verbal Kints in the L8 Grand Final! I have come from 6th to the big dance!

This week I have 1 more trade left. Will be to bring in a player that I think will score big. Martin or Arrow May have to make way.

Managed 1k exactly and moved up 2 spots to 1996

Hard to celebrate though as the injuries continue to roll in.

Martin and Fitz to join Ramien, Ponga, Sua and Doueihi on my emergency bench.. oh wait, the dumb cunts at FanHub only gave us 4 bench spots

Looking forward to this joke of a game being over with.

Yeah, it's unlikely as all hell, but the team in 4th outscored me by >260 points this week so I guess it's possible, right? Should be my turn to get some luck. Captain is going to be super important this week.
VK didn't ruin Taumalolo this week so maybe the curse is broken. Just in time for us to both charge home.

Thanks! I don't believe, I've had nothing but shit luck for the last few weeks, so unless the universe changes its mind about me quickly I have no chance.
I tuned out for most of the week, having already conceded defeat after Thursday happened. Thought it couldn't get much worse from there. So wrong
It's annoying because I was always going to bench Aitken this week, but then Ponga happened, and then Mbye stunk so ended up playing Holland in my WFBs instead thinking Aitken would surely outscore Mbye's 17
Yeah I have pretty good cover in theory, with cover for at least 1 out in every position. So can survive Ponga, Aitken, Martin and one forward or half being out. Be nice if they all scored over 20 though.

Have you thought about maybe visiting someone to realign your shockras?

I'm gutted I lost the semi in your league. McInnes going off & not returning was the difference as I lost by 10 points.

Jeeze whats the latest on the injuries lads?

Some teams will have completely come undone in the last couple weeks with all the big names going down.

Are there updates on:

Fitzgibbon, Martin, McInnes, or Aitken?

Also, is the general consensus that Ponga is on ice for the season now too?

I managed to rise a few spots to 42nd with 1045 for the weekend. Coulda been better if Martin and McInnes had stayed on the park but then again it could have been way worse!! 152 points ahead of 108th spot
