You sicko

Raspberry or cola all day

Me the sicko, Raspberry is good but Cola is the el cheapo knock off that tastes like it is actively giving you cancer.

Either trade in  ponga & crichton or Bateman & Xerri?

Thoughts?

Bateman and Xerri.

Ponga won't rise in cash much and I would want to see the Aubusson effect on Crichton first.

Cheers, locking it in now!

Can't be bothered signing up to watch the vid but when Roberts is fit I daresay he walks back in. Don't really buy the "his jersey to lose" thing honestly when this is James Roberts we're talking about, we need him fit and in the 13.

Seibold is a lost fucker.  I'll stay clear until something official.

+1 for Bateman and Xerri.

Rabbits were in the same space last year but a better roster

There are a number of potential routes for Staggs staying in the 3 jersey long enough to make him a good trade in:
1) James injury is "indefinite" and happened to coincide with him getting in trouble
2) Staggs is preferred and the jersey is his to lose as Siebold is quoted as saying
3) They can move Bird to halves or lock, both problem positions

Friend out for Bateman
Napa out for Paulo

Needed a FRF this week as was down to Lawrie, but Paulo should slot in nicely there.
Friend's money sat there doing nothing last week and down a hooker but the bench is still Smith/McCullough/Mahoney/Rein
Nice to get rid a couple of red dots in my team, thanks Bryce haha

He was running around at a school clinic today with kids so it's not like he's restricted to jogging on the sidelines. The injury he has will be there the entirety of the season, so there's no point resting him because it won't just disappear. He's been lazy with the rehabilitation side of things and the exercises he was given to improve the injury.

I would be surprised if he hasn't received a rocket this week to get his shit together. If he still decides to be a lazy twat and get drunk all the time then yes Staggs is a buy because Roberts won't be at the club anymore. Too much uncertainty for me at the moment. Staggs needs 3/4 weeks to be worth a buy and no one knows how long he will be there for.

Could be a great buy, could be a dud buy if Roberts is back in 2 rounds.

I quite like the opportunity, means most stay off until too late to bring in for value.

Anyone thinking Meaney also? Seems a tidy player, played 6 NRL games with relatively consistent  scoring. $150k cheaper than Gutho, would help me get Ponga next week.

Strongly considering bringing in meaney and Ponga next week to fix up my half issue.

Cheers for that. Don't think I'll run the risk bringing him in this week if theres no news tomorrow as Gillett is the player I'll need to trade out. Will pick him up ponga next week.

If Ponga is quieter than usual, Gillett should be able to get around 40-45 so shouldn't lose too much mate

It could definitely pay off. Personally not for me because I'm not convinced his place in the starting team will last long and Okunbor has better JS at the moment so I'm probably trading him in.

Honestly stuck.

AH--> CHT

then either

Capewell ---> Ponga or Angus

Garner--> Too the above

Burns --> cow? ( havent got enough to do burns to the above)

That's what I'm thinking too.

Depends on the cow. I'd go with that option because I think long term money gain might be more beneficial to the team than getting a gun a week earlier.
