    If we started the speculation then it means Crawley was here.

    I like Roache from a fantasy output point of view, but with injuries and questionable job security it's hard to take a punt on him. 
    I can see him getting more game time over Luke as the season progresses.

    Lone Scout's winners & losers on the NRL website doesn't mention Alvaro's zero, which would presumably go in the loaer column. It's like we dreamt it.

    I want Warriors to start with Roache though I love Bully.

    On hindsight, Warriors should have let him go to the Eels. His output has been too inconsistent since he moved to Warriors. I think he had one good season and three so-so ones.

    Surely no one actually believes its a fanhub conspiracy and they did that to Alvaro on purpose.

    What on earth in the past five years has lead anyone to believe that they are capable of doing something that with malice rather than sheer incompetence? Hanlon's razor.

    As was pointed out (Milchy, I think?) the issue wasn't the error, it's the fact that they're opening up the game 10mins after the last game finishes, not giving themselves enough time to check everything is in order.

    This isn't the first and I can guarantee it won't be the last.

    He didn't get a zero, he got a DNP.

    He scored 1 fantasy point, if they ever get around to figuring that he actually played in the game.

    SC Falcons had a massive game with a 52-6 win over the Capra's to continue their undefeated streak.
    Some big fantasy scores from some future NRL players in that one. Todd Murphy 60, Harry Grant 64, Nicho Hynes 90, Joe Stimson 55 (2 Tries)

    Frizzell has said he will be wearing a protective cup for the remainder of the season for peace of mind.

    What are people doing with Taupau? He's been underwhelming and not his usual tackle busting self. I want to cash him out to Burr and use the cash to upgrade someone else.

    Rava to Xerri

    I need half or WFB cover pretty seriously, but I'm also thinking of a single trade this week. Just don't have anyone I really need to trade out at this point in time to bring in a good HLF/WFB. Unless I wanted to dump Taupau, which I won't do. RTS was probably going to be my main target over a Cleary or Moses anyway, but the above news would definitely put me off that this week anyway.

    Will see what happens today, but at the moment I'm just thinking Garrick out for best looking cow. Moo.

    I'm holding him. Wish I'd swapped him out a few weeks ago, but it's kind of at the stage now where I may as well hold and hope. Very disappointing, though.

    Taupau/Arrow out is the type of trade I could consider if I could also use 3 trades this week. We should have the option of using 3 trades on any given round of our choosing, once a season.

    Taupau will get much cheaper. This week he has a b/e of 65. I think he'll be better to buy in 3-4 weeks.
