Glad I actually backed myself and went with Burns instead of giving about him another look!

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.

Its.. beautiful


Bit dirty on Vaughny. Thought he could have had a real dig in the last 10 minutes, on my behalf. Was sitting on 150m pretty early and barely had another run. Look Paul, I know the game was over and you were on a 5 day turn around, but I won't cop that again.

Trading in two players from the first game is very liberating.

Getting so much work done.

Mitch Rein travelling with the Titans to Sydney - could come into the 17.

Glad I started with Burns. No reason to reverse 2nd trade of Twal>Bird? I think he's cow with great previous form at CTR and money banked so useful next week

Even though Murray's scores would be a bit underwhelming without the tries, there's a good chance he'll be scoring a shitload of tries this year anyway. Kid has the skill and determination to find the try line.

Mixed fortunes for TheWeapons last night. Chose gHost as my last reserve over Keighran/Burr/Brown because he appeared a 'safer' option. Had Ravalawa in my CTW.

But. Thankfully had Burns, Surgess, and Murray to cancel that rubbish out a bit...

12 fantasy points in 54 minutes.

Not only this but as Rabbits is saying he didn't get much opportunity at lock last year. He is just coming into his own, already running great lines and tackles everything. Bennett's coaching seems to have changed a little and once Georgey is back i think Murray sees 65 mins consistently and will learn to manage his offensive and defensive load. Will settle around 53ppg and be a great bench player (fantasy wise) come end of the year.

I have no issue or doubt that he'll be a final 17 keeper.

To be fair, he announced this last year.

Maybe he announced it again cause no one gave a fuck the first time.

Let's talk about Surgess. TBH I completely overlooked him and was shocked to see his price. Should be around 735k next week and I'm already looking to get Rd12 bye team together especially FRF/2RF. That said was it about 43pts from attacking stats? That said next 5 GCT mnl NZL bul pen!!!

Bit rough on Vaughan I think. He made a few hard runs, just was swamped with defenders. The dragons sucked

If arrow stinks it up this week again, because who knows what Mary 2.0 will do, i think Surgess becomes more valuable than Bateman at this stage. Rabbits look to be benchmark so far this year. As i said the way their attack is you'll want a fair few Rabbits in your team this year.

haha, man i really thought the sarcasm in my post was clear! It was really only in reference to my 200m call.

Put a fork in him and put him out in the paddock with Darius

As soon as he came out and said he was retiring next year he was done.

I was surprised when I saw his score, thought he easily had a 50 point game.

After looking at Rabbit next fixtures I'm poring over Rabbits player stats. Even awkwardly priced Campbell Graham could be worth a punt

lol one round plus one game of round 2 has been played. They always lift against the Roosters and the Dragons suck ass, not exactly a wide sample size by which to measure the benchmark of the competition.
