Im considering bateman or Nikora.

I have a feeling that panthers right edge is going to be opened up like anthony mundines face.

Nikora will be up against Panthers left edge because he is a right side player - meaning it should be Nikora/Xerri/Katoa v Kikau/Whare/Mansour

Kapow from those. No AFB will see him hit 60+ this week I reckon. Plus he’s due for a monster. Teddy and Ponga could score 100 or 35. Bateman just keeps on keeping on, but I’m still not game to captain him. I’ve got Cook as a set and forget since R1 and no intention to ever change.

Me personally, with one of my final trades will look at cashing out to a base NPR for a team who will generally play late games who can sit in 17 and I can loop my 18,19th man for the week. Hoping these players will be someone like Surgess, Matterson, Harris, Easy E, Kikau. This theoretically should give me the upper hand in my H2H games and hopefully jump some ranks late in the season.

Very early to be talking about this aye. What will people do re 4 top WFBs (RTS, Teddy, Ponga, TTurbo) - exclude one or play Ponga on bench/halves

I'm going to say a ballsy shout and say Smith might not be a final 17 player - McInnes/Farah/Cook have a decent headstart over him, however if his price continues to drop and drops below 800k, then I'd say it's a no-brainer to pick him up for Mahoney/Rein post R12

I reckon CNK could be a decent 18th/19th man this year

tolman to twal too sideways?

Possibly keep Tolman and make the trade after round 12

Next Sunday 2pm Sea Eagles v Raiders
Bateman for a Tonne! Bateman will go earily close to scoring a try this week but the Broncos unfortunately will hold him out and come away in a low scoring affair. Bateman, itching to score his first try and the Raiders will unleash on the Sea Eagles in a fast paced high scoring game where Bateman will score a double and Tonne to go with it.

Link please?

I'm not sure that it is too early tbh. Some round 12 players look like v nice 18/19 options so its a little bit of sway when considering trades - at least for me anyway.

Haas is my first trade in, gonna be torn again I reckon, just feel like I'm short of money makers

I’ve decided to bring in CHT. Didn’t want too and better long term options but they are 100k more. Really need to free up cash and make it at the same time. I started the season with 400k in the kitty so obviously did something wrong along the way!

What if I told you, you could have tomorrows news, today?

Any fellow Macca owners still out there?

What possible link could he provide that would make you convinced this is actually going to happen?

Im bringing in Teddy this week but not sure if he can wait and bring in Twal instead? My backline is fairly weak with CNK, Ponga and Rava/Kapoo (Burns in EMG)

Thoughts?

I'd like to know everyones thoughts on the gun half situation atm. With nearly everyone running morgan and cht in the halves I feel like there are a few good opportunities out there for the coming weeks;

Cleary ($669k) - Playing in a struggling team and still averaging 45, starting to find some form of late. Kick metres are way down compared to last year. 100k under starting value, BE 55. 1 or 2 weeks from bottoming out.

Pearce ($608k) - Playing in a struggling team aswell. Will be the dominant Half again with ponga moving back to fullback. Has had a dreadful start to the year only has one try assist to his name. BE of 59 and down 136k below his starting price.

SJ ($719k) - Playing in a more competitive team this year, still a bit unsure if this will be better or worse for his fantasy game. More attacking base stats however less touches of the ball compared to the warriors. Probably not as undervalued as the other 2 mentioned. BE of 62, bit of value there for his price and pedigree.

Obviously there are other guys out there but who would you rate as the best buy 2 or 3 weeks down the line and who do you think bounces back in form fantasy wise?

I have checked the tea leaves and they have Teddy down for a 39 this week. Hope this helps.

Me. Im in no hurry to move him out. He's a reliable high 40's so thats ok with me.

What I want to know is how does a dominant half in Pearce get 50KM all game last week after getting 500+ the week before (Ponga at FB for both so that shouldn't be the reason)
