What you doing with Aikens?

Just holding Aekins for now. It was between him and Sivo for Bateman, but would leave the bank empty if trading Aekins and I figure Sivo's gonna bleed his cash now and don't wanna risk gambling on him scoring tries constantly.

Could hold Allan instead of Aekins I guess, but still worried about a bad emergency if the schedule fucks me and Teddy is out, and then my replacement Vaughan the following day. Lowish BE for Allan though, so if he jags a 50 I'd probably be pretty annoyed.

I'll look to jump on a cheapie Rd 16 player for Aekins whenever I can though. Ideally a basement guy, but might have to pay up for a Shibasaki, Gray, Pearson, Euan Aitken type if they're the only ones available.

Makes sense. Hopefully we don't get any curveballs leading into the next bye round. Wasn't a fan of last round and all my plans being thrown into the trash lol

Turns out I should've dumped Guth this week for Bateman and Sivo next for Marsters.

Flanagan at 5/8 instead of putting DWalker there would've been nice too.

Fucking flu rocking me hard since yesterday. Knew it was gonna be a shit weekend with that and Cook/Murray's BS last night.

Fantasy can fuck off for another week.

I've made a Sunday switch of taking the R off Dearden and onto Staggs, purely a gut call hoping he has a big game, and it will have a huge swing affect on a h2h.

Yea, I left Xerri out this week and the previous game he went big...

And a TRY

Disappointing round. 1039 all done.

969 for me Expecting some updates though..

My NPRs were great, story of my year. Xerri 104, Flanno 82, Staggs 66, Havili 38 and Vaughan probably 50+.

Meanwhile played Murray, Cook, DWalker, Guth and RTS for trash.

Guth to Marsters and Klemmer to one of Matterson, Twal or SST next week.

Got a feeling Matterson will appear in origin 3. Might look at SST for Klemmer and Twal for Vaughan the following week since I'm not playing him anyway.

I played Gutherson (0) over Xerri (98) not a great call

I suspect many people (myself included) made the exact same call

1052 moved up 400 spots surprisingly... 2.7k rank now

Im having a shocker of a season, worst in 10 years. Silver lining i ranked 16th overal for rd13

I'm setting the bar low for future seasons in my first SC season, ranked 25,000th

Guth to Marsters and Vaughan to SST this week, 158k left over.

Probably go Klemmer to Twal next week and planning Havili to Matterson prior to Rd 16 if not playing origin, otherwise might look at someone like KBrom.

Might leave JFH out for SST if he stays at FR. Tempted by Xerri over CNK with his current hot streak and slightly better average now.

Something like:

Cam, Cook
Fifita, Haas, SST, Klemmer
(C)Taumalolo, Murray, Harris, Taupau, JFH, Havili
Cleary, Ponga, Flanagan, DWalker
Bateman, Nikora, Marsters, Xerri, CNK, Staggs, Aekins
RTS, Teddy

Gives me 9 for Rd 16 so far, with Flanno a possible 10th. Klemmer, Havili, Aekins and maybe DWalker should add another 4.

Just one trade this week. Tatola out. SST in.

At least playing Xerri over CNK didn't cost me too much, only 9 points. Still feel it was the right decision with the tries on offer to his edge had he not been HIA'd.

CNK might join the chopping block list now too. Been crap in 4 of the last 5.

That's the only thing making me feel better haha.

I dare say he would have gone big butfor the HIA.

Like me, did you do the opposite this week for the same result (assuming Gutho ton's up now)!

Same here. Was playing one or the other, so not much of a loss in points.

Add Arrow to Xerri this week
