I would have loved to have seen Brad Clyde in fantasy. Phwoar, now he woulda been a gun!

Menzies for me. Great base stats with potential to go huge several times a season when getting line breaks and tries.

Any update on Ponga? Last I heard, it was hoped he'd be back. Cheers.

Do you think he found Ben Hunt's stash of butter in the sheds?

Bringing in all the cows can be a massive payne in the haas. But he seems like he will continue putting up big scores. Was planning on not trading for a while, happy with my team. After seeming haas and Twal last night makes me have serious fomo. Bird to haas and I’ll wait on Twal.

We must have the same shit teams mate.

You bring in one and ill get the other and well debrief on Monday?

Meh, CHT is already one of my starting halves. I am just closing my eyes and hoping for another reasonable score.

I would say 56 is more than reasonable haha

Cheers mate. I’m very aware that the main thing that turns people off Christianity is Christians

We are too quick to judge the many because of the actions of a few who don’t “get it”. I also hate the idea of having to be politically correct or losing freedom of speech but again it’s doable to have the best of both worlds, folau just missed the boat and comes across in a way that will have the opposite effect to how he probably intended it

The God I believe in is about grace and mercy, kindness and serving and our words and actions should be aligned with those things. If you can manage that then people notice and are interested. If you’re a tool then the opposite effect happens and you lose your rugby career and the respect of a whole country

I’ll leave it at that

Worried he is going to do a Westbrook and play the game of his life in a tribute match.

Oh yeah, last week was a punt that paid off.

This week could be a different story against the Rabbits.

So if i bring in Xerri instead of CHT this week, it should theoretically allow me to do:

Bird > Hass (CTR pairing will be Bateman/Nikora)
Edwards > Ponga (WFB trio will be Teddy/Ponga/Klokstad)

Means i can keep Gillett around. HIA is no reason to drop him and he seems to be popping up in the right places to score tries.

Worth going for the cheaper guy to make this scenario possible??

Xerri will be much more effective if SJ plays, if possible you may wait on confirmation that he is in before making that decision.

Having a back 5 you can set and forget until TTurbo comes back looks pretty good to me.

After that real life performance there is no way his JS is at risk. He killed it. Siebold isn't stupid. He's just stuck with spuds that performed for daddy Bennett

Ive calculated using MTBs site that if Edwards scores 20 and Ponga scores 70 ill be able to make the trades with 10k in the bank if i get Xerri in.

imo the reason society is the way it is these days is because people don't have church in their lives. Religion taught a moral code to live by. Now people's god is materialism & greed. They will phuck over their fellow man if they see a gain to be made.

Banking on it. Considered captaining him but too risky if news came in today

Knights need to win tmw. I will likely have no voice Saturday night

You will see the Edwards score ahead of needing to make the decision anyway.
