    People are forgetting that Tatola and Knight are 30 minute props at the moment. George and Tom are 40 plus. So, Bennett is rotating all the middles more to accomodate. When George is back, I expect Murray to play 70 mins. Plus, he’s still acclimatising to starting lock. It’s Round 2.

    Edit: Nicholls also

Will at the very least get enough bench minutes to make money. Will settle for the 61 from Captain Cook. Now to decide if I should give up on Lane who looked alright to chase Bateman with no money in the bank to catch up next week following rises.  

    Host was bad fantasy wise but in reality the Dragons were doing better with him than when Leilua had taken his spot. Yes Host was missing tackles but that was because he was jumping the defensive line to put pressure on the attacking play. I think Host is the least of Mary's worries at the moment but can't say the same for the Fantasy Coaches.

    Out of the top 65 ranked fanatics from week 1

    21/65 teams played Ravalawa
    12/65 teams played Host

    And 3/65 teams played both.

    A lot of teams have 1 or both in emergencies.

    Edit: I'm one of the chumps that played Ravalawa.

    What lessens the blow: Saved a trade by not bringing in Host. Already had Lawrie and Burns.

    Had Host in EMG and played Ravalawa over Kahu.

    Now Kahu will score 50 to prove a point, not to the Broncos but, to me.

    Yeah I agree. He positions well and can read the game. It just doesn't show in the stats. Also some of the MTs in fantasy are bs, guy makes the tackle but pulls off and goes back the 10 while another flops and gets the +1

    I also hate how a misread leading to a LB doesn't penalise a player lol

    I considered putting Ravalawa in my starting WFB earlier in the week when my trade rage was burning with contempt for DE's low score. Common sense prevailed. DE better put up something good this week or he'll get BURNSed

    But shout out to Welshy who called Burns over Bird and the guys putting in advice in the last thread. Made me bring him in this week with no regrets.

    Bennett didn't play lock at the broncos for more than 65 minutes, doubt it happens at the Rabbits with Murray.

    Host will start second row again next week I reckon. He wasn't great, but Leilua was worse.

    Had a respiratory problem and shortness of breath on the field. He came back on and played out the game. So at this stage he is fine, curious about what caused it though.

    Keep dreaming mate, but Bird is still on my list of guys to look at. The only way I get him though is a Holland downgrade. So it probably won't happen.

    Thinking of reversing my Garrick > Bird trade and just bringing Burns in next week for whoever is worst performing (or dropped) out of Garrick, Ravalawa, Sivo or Kahu.

    Make sense?

    I'm pretty sure he stayed off, didn't he? He played 26 minutes total.

    I like the idea of banking the trade and getting one more look at Bird and Burns.

    I couldn't go too hard on you after all the great work you do around here.

    I hope this image shows up as my IT skills are below SI's and I haven't posted an image for years.

    This isn't a bad idea. I didn't even think about doing that and I might do the same. I guess the thing is that both Bird and Burns will most likely be a lot more expensive next week so you will lose some of the cash you would have made this week but you will have a better look at them.
