Not really mate, unless you had Tommy Turbo. Not sure who you have but Garner missed time with injury and Capewell played in the centres for a lot of the game.

Cheers mate. When I saw the score I assumed an injury. Capewell still doing fairly well.

I was looking at Mahoney last week to trade out for the likes of Rein, but Capewell is slowly putting his hand up if Mahoney keeps getting 80min... and only if he does. As an Eels fan, and Fantasy aside, I can't for the balls of me see why he isn't an 80min player every week. As evidenced this week, he went well. More to the point, the muddle that occurs when they take him off and play without a legit hooker is just pointless. To me, he looks good playing 80mins, Fantasy owner or not.

Any major news?

You missed a pretty feisty night on the forum last night. There were deletions.

Anyone have 3 or more players remaining this round? I have 4 left and expecting to make a decent move up tomorrow.

I agree. I think Mahoney will mostly play 80mins from now on, especially with DBrown out and Salmon in the halves.
Capewell takes a bit after Aubs  with his Centre duties, and Dugan's presence on the field only increases the probability of him shifting to Ctr by about 150% as we saw tonight.

Only Lawrie for me, and I expect to get swamped in all H2H's. My fault for playing Sivo over Rava. Really feel like that's going to haunt me this week.

I may shift Capwell on and get Teddy in.

I thought I might trade Garner/Sirro to Bateman this week but I still have Burns and maybe I should look at upgrading him into a decent scorer. Sivo and Rava will have their on/off days. I won't judge Capewell since he got moved to the centres.

I think A. Hopoate has just recently started playing so it might be a bit early to replace Turbo but it's a possibility.
Lane was shite & these backline injuries are messing up Capewell's scores so I'll be using both to get Tedesco.
I'm currently 675/13 with L. Lewis, Munster, Lawrie & Ravalawa to play so realistically if I get 150 pts from those 4 I'll be happy.

Mahoney looked ok for 80min tonight because the Eels were dominating possession. Watch the last 20min of last week when they didnt have a huge possession advantage. BA left him on for too long and 2 tries came directly from him and Alvaro dropping off tackles or being to tired to make it back into the line and close the gap. By the time they pulled him off it was too late. The Eels need someone who can give him a 15min rest from 55-70th minute.

Pages for being nosy??

Few updates have come in by the looks of it. Up 8 points.

A whole page was deleted so not sure what's left. Bit of niggle all night but blew up around 10 Sydney time. I think everyone is all good again.

Flanagan looked out of his depth tonight, he should be used to playing alongside the guys outside him, Nikora, Xerri, Katoa but didn't initiate any attack that side for them. Very pleased with their scores considering, and really hoping SJ is back next week to light them up.

Cook 70, Fifi 81 at a quick glance.

My preliminary trades at this point:

Lane -> Moses, DBrown -> Okunbor or CHT.

Moses with Salmon there is a bona fide GUN half, he has to do all the kicking and he will kill it. Even with Brown there he was going well enough.

Moses in a winning team without another dominant half does look tempting. 

He looks the part if his base is going to stay around 20 tackles , 300+ kick meters and 3 goals

Even with DBrown there I wanted him, but already have Morgan and Munster there so didn't go for him. Without DBrown, I think he's worth having on my bench, he's that fucking good. Getting rid of Norman has really made him take control and he's playing with some serious confidence.

828 with Tolman and Lawrie to go. Captain Fifi and Moses you beauty!
