Funny thing is, if he busts out a 60 this week, people will consider bringing him in at a bargain price.

Yeah. Gains and losses only matter at the point they're realised. Could easily earn it back come season end
If he gets dropped though then we're fucked.

3 games in same with every player, If we seen those starts and they were his only 3 games he had played in the NRL he would be gone, but we all know he has the goods so worth keeping for another week or so at very least

Anybody trading Napa in?
I was very tempted last week and then Rein happened. Needed cover so went with Rein

I watched him on league life? (or whatever its called) the other week with Hodgson and he mentioned that pre-season involved a 40 degree day, although admittedly it would have been far less humid. I think the heat might slow him down a LITTLE but personally I'd tip it will hardly be noticeable. I think if he does start gassing we have Hudson Young on the bench so at least its unlikely he stays out there tired and starts dropping off a heap of tackles to undo all his good work. I really want him in this week but I'm probably going to have to skip him for my other trades.Ponga Yeo the Mann wrote:Re Tedesco - we've seen him struggle, or at least not be quite himself in the wet and we've seen the SCG be a horrible pitch. we are meant to get some (not a lot but some) more rain today in Sydney. scares me off him a little bit. He's a very instinctive player and post 2 ACL reco's I think the soft SCG makes him play a touch more conservatively
I'm currently picking between him and Bateman. Tedesco probably makes more sense for my team but I'm thinking I might wait a week and go ponga instead of Tedesco for now to see how he goes on the SCG going forward.
Bateman on the other hand has his first Townsville game. Will the heat and humidity hurt him much? He seems like a bit of a machine

I saw a bit of that and while you have to concentrate to understand him hes a likable bloke and I like the wants to be in everything and take on everyone approach he plays with. Liking a player is definitely a big factor for me in fantasy.
You and storm trooper have helped make my mind up. Cheers

I'm really considering cashing out Captain Cook. It sounds a little daft, but hear me out:
1) His role has changed under Wayne. He's establishing plays, not finishing them.
2) There are fewer scoots, likely as a result of 1.
3) He needed 2 TAs to get to 60 in R2.
4) Lost time over Origin.
5) As a 55-point player there's more cash to drop
6) Look, I really don't trust Wayne not to do further weird things.
7) His cash turns dud cows into Bateman this week and Ponga the next (although it means running a 1-hooker team for a fortnight, which is scary).
How wrong am I?

Cheers mate, been really into a bit of Greek myth recently. Haven’t played dota but do enjoy the old school RPGs.

Who’s the 1 hooker left in your team?
If the cash can be better used elsewhere then not the worst idea imo. If you want to move him over origin anyway and can pick up similar points with Rein or someone now who could then be turned into CS9 etc over Origin then go for it.
If it gets you closer to a team you are happy with then go for it

Rabbit’s roundup
Edwards will gun it this week with Penrith embarrassed last week, Kikau and Yeo back, and plenty more go forward to take advantage of. People forget how effective Yeo is on that right edge.
Cook’s role has not changed. You don’t play all your cards unless you need to. Also, expect him to do some more kicking with Walker carrying a shoulder injury and either out, or nursing the injury.
Rein is the must have this week. Titans have no other actual hookers.
Harris Tevita will be a gun. Kearney gave the older Keighran a run first. I think he always knew he was risky having already been in the Bulldogs and Penrith systems. Now the young kid gets his chance to nab the starting spot for good. I actually see both of them in the team at some point. Green may get injured or dropped, plus Keighran is really a centre and an opportunity may arise there.
Lawrie for 50, starting lock. He’s a real footy player and will gradually get more minutes.
Arrow 50 minutes. 43 points. Don’t captain him.
Rabbits by 30.
Fuck the Broncos.

I'm down with most of this bar Arrow. 53 and I'll be happy.
I think we are going to find it a bit tougher than expected though Rabbit. Manly will start strong and go toe to toe for the first 60 but I reckon we knock 'em out by the end. Rabbits by 12 for me.

I haven't seen enough of Aekins to make a judgement on him but if you ignore last week Edwards is a way better fullback than DWZ. He gets at least one more week to repay my faith.
If you compare DWZs last 3 games at fullback at international level, with Edwards last 3 games at club level, it isnt even close. DWZ was up there as a contender for player of the tournament for his great play at fullback for NZ.
