Wasn't Rava's fault he didn't see any ball in attack.

I'm certain he was only passed the ball via the dummy half when taking a hit up.

I picked up Kerr last week as a npr, was hoping he would make a little cash this week

Rava's scores will be up and down like most WFB, tonight was a bit lower than expected

This tactic of changing your spine with 15 min. to go has hairs on it. Norman to fullback, Widdop to 5/8 and Duffy can go swing at this stage.

Bring forced to play one of the Fijian wingers is making finding a 3rd WFB a priority. I wonder how long Surgess keeps up the attacking stats. He's looking keen, healthy, and more disciplined

Bringing in Lawrie and not trusting Host is pleasing.
Playing Rava spoils my good mood.
He was only a one week stopgap because I didn't want to play Kahu and planned to get Burns at WFB3 next week. But man have I done goofed prioritising Bateman over Burns this week

Was just looking through the top teams from last week, the vast majority don't have Burns and almost all have played either Rava or Host or both.

This was definitely the main issue. I hope his BE isn't too bad so that I can hold on for another week (assuming he plays again) and see what happens. But they seriously couldn't have avoided that side of the field tonight more if they tried. I assume it's because Inglis was obviously struggling?

Coach is definitely main issue with Saints. Plenty/Many/All teams have adequate players at several positions, but fuck me, dude just needs to make up his mind and go with it. It's a fucking mess what he's doing at the moment.

I'd be worried about all the people rushing to get Burns in next week but hopefully they blew all their cash elsewhere.

Just realised Niukore's ownership is still only 1.5%. What a POD I have picked

He'll be somewhere around $420k, not so cheap any more.

His ownership didn't really change last week, doesn't even make the list of most traded in.

Trades all week: Burns and Lawrie for couple of dud cows

Trade last minutes before lockout: Host (to give me bank for gillett)

I was last thread one of the most vocal in calling the bloke a useless bastard.

There’s only one spaz now...

Knew host was fucking garbage but at his price and minutes expected at least SOMETHING!

At Least Burns softened the blow for me

Cook up to 61 is nice for the Captaincy there. I am happy with that from your captain. Burns 65 is impressive, floor of 39 so far this season and a ceiling of 65. The way the Rabbits are playing this year I don’t see him scoring lower than 35 too often if at all. 56 and 55 from Murray to start the year. Played 8 less minutes this week. Could be due to last week being a bit closer. Might have bumped around 60 if he got those minutes tonight. I think Rabbits will be putting on lots of points this year. You’ll want a few in your team. 

Gillett, Morgan, Hughes, CNK tomorrow night
Gillett will see a lot more attacking opportunities tomorrow. Seibold will want his line running, off the back of ofa and TPJ he might find some good metres. Broncos will step it up against the cows tomorrow. 55 for Gillett. Morgan is now in JT mode! He is ready to take control of this team. With Tolo, Hess, Cooper, McGuire, McLean, Scott, Molo/Jensen firing Morgo is given free will to do whatever he wants with the ball. 51 for Morgo tomorrow. Hughes impressed last week. Wanting to be in everything. The raiders will struggle to contain the second phase footy and Hughes will find some nice holes and jag another meaty. Nice but subtle 48 for hughsy. CNK will be doing a lot of running tomorrow. Receiving plenty of kick returns and running of the back of Rapana’s 20 metre breaks. Has the confidence under him now and will scoot along to a nice easy 43.

So glad I didn’t succumb to trade pressure. Still going to wait for the Panthers final squad; however, tonight shows that base price, wingers especially, scores can fluctuate so much. 38 in RD 1 and 9 in RD2. GARRICK could just as well hit 38 in a losing team this week and start is cash making.

RUMOUR ALERT: Dragons set to lose Reece Robson. He is set to sign with the Doggies in the coming days. Surely he pips lichaa for that spot? Nice cow

I went Radley to Lawrie
and am tossing up either Garrick/Sivo to Bateman (Rava had a score so will wait for money)

All the base price wingers have problems regarding job security (Lomax, Jennings, TTurbo). All of them aren't getting the ball (Aitken, Jennings, Manly in general........). At base price all it takes is a score or two and they'll be be in the money for 150k or so and they will be gone from our teams ASAP.

What you really want to avoid is having to rely on playing one every week.......

Also 38 - 10TB = 8. So you can argue on a score of 9 his base is increasing.... just needs them attacking stats
