cover

Gillett/Mahoney/Cleary instead

No FRF that excite me enough.  Twal i think is only a couple of points undervalued and not worth it. Same with Ofahengaue. So its either Napa and hope he can pout the last 6 months behind him, or take a pint on Surgess
Anyone else I should have as last minute consideration?

Is Host already in there or have you ruled him out?

Is Cleary on the bench because it feels better saying your halves are Morgan & Keighran/Brown with Cleary on the bench? Rather than saying your halves are Morgan and Cleary with Keighran/Brown on the bench?

Not considering him. Past seasons stats aren't great and don't think he has good job security

I think I'm done. Thoughts?

McCullough
Fifita (c), Taupau
Lane, Arrow, Murray
Morgan, Keighran
Capewell, Nikora
Tedesco, CNK, Kahu

Mahoney, Sironen, Garner, Host
Brown, Bird, Ravalawa, Garrick

Sorry this is a one way lane

I edited. Garner in there sorry.

Re-evaluating Host now

If he continues to start then a 30+ average entirely possible. But will he start more than twice?

Might only make $50k before becoming useless

Back to the drawing board

Cook
Fifita-Surgess
Arrow-Murray-Garner
SJ-Morgan
Capewell-Kahu
RTS-CNK-Raawlwalwalwal

McCullough
Brown
Keighran
Nikora

Sivo, Host, Garrick, Mikaele

Pretty thin bench but those 212 guys are popping up in many peoples starting sides.

Don't know on Host or Burr, and whether Mikaele is the best 212 guy remaining there. Can't afford to make him Burr.

Could turn Mikaele into Burr if I turn Kahu into Bird.

Yuck.

There's no other good cheap FRF options for cover. If you get a 1 week suspension from a prop with no cover, you're stuffed.

Cleary is on the bench because his spot in my team is not secure, and I want flexibility to trade him to any position over the weekend.

If he got locked in I'd have Morgan/Cleary as starting halves and Brown/Keighran/both on the bench

Anyone with a Samsung have trouble getting the app?  I can't download as it says its not compatible with ny device.

I only have McCullough tonight. I had 5 players about a week ago.

That's the risk. But hopefully by then a good FRF option has revealed himself and I'll have them in my team.

I have no cover and I am running with the theory that by the time something like that happens I am hoping a FRF cow has popped up or i have traded one in by then.

In the case it happens in RD 1 I am happy to trade a failed cow or a member of my team who didnt perform the way i hoped to a FRF that has performed well in RD 1 (ie. Tatola, Twal, Host, Mikaele, Kamikamica, etc.)

Holy shit me too! Before TLT and Trials I had Macca, TPJ, Ofa, Gillet, Fifita. Now i just have Gillet.

My Prediction: Macca to outscore Cook in round 1

Rabbitohs will be frothing at the chance to prove Crichton made the wrong decision, he'll be getting a mouthful.

Rabbits pack looks a bit better than Roosters as well. Cook to score 70+ this week.

Also, where is the first try scorer thread

Eh? They are missing Crichton and Gurgess from the PF team.
