18, barring huge injuries. Have 21 now and need to cash in/upgrade Morgan,, CHT and Burr before byes.

Hopefully 13 for first bye. We've seen this week the difference in ranks/momentum 88 points can make (Cook & Fifi captainers)... having a decent set up and a couple of extra bye players could be huge.

I'm looking at 16, which is tight.

I'll hopefully have 10 players in R12 (11 if Murray doesn't play origin) maybe spend 1 trade on a cheapie if a good one turns up, but otherwise not sure I'll trade for round 12.

Interesting. Would love to go in with18 but 16 seems more likely and probably on par.

I maintained the rage and stayed within the top 10,000

Any news on Hughes injury ?

Wighton ave 57 last 3 games with 4 tries in that time, I'm surprised everyone wants him.

Probably because of the 57 average.

Not even 40 average in base stats over that period. But DPP is handy and more than likely plays 12. He's a pass for me though, try scoring isn't sustainable but well done to those who got him early.

great form, but how long can it last.
I've been waiting for Walker to have a low score, but he seems to keep on keeping on

Yeah I'll pass on Wighton.
Walkers a hard one, he is one I've had in previous seasons and mistimed the trade in or out and have a burnies feeling about him big time.

I might bring Kapow into the fold this week, I really need some round 12 love, just hoping he'll hit some form soon.

I think Ryan Matterson is the vastly better utility option. Media barely mentions him but all that matters is the coach himself has given him high praise recently.

The odds of this happening have got to be waaaayyy out there. Can pretty much rule the surface out. Wonder if they have just started wearing the same boots?

Haha! Its a long season mate. I'll take it though

Cheers!

Nice work this week Verbal! Captain Cook worked a treat for you.

I can bring in Tedesco, Cleary or Pearce over Wighton. Why does this decision seem hard

Thoughts on selling Morgan down to Papenhuyzen? Paps not playing 12 doesn't matter as Morgan won't either, plus I genuinely believe that he will get the fullback spot and keep it, plus Bellamy seems to really like him. That said I am a biased Storm fan so take that into account.

Either way he could go absolutely nuts this week against his old team, so I'm leaning towards getting him in. It also frees up like 300k for use elsewhere (probably to upgrade Lawrie to a gun FRF or Mahoney to CS9 if Mahoney plays Origin)

For reference my team is:

Cook
Fifi, Haas
Arrow, Murray, Lawrie
Wighton, Munster
Nikora, Garrick
Ponga, CNK, Teddy

Rein, Mahoney, Morgan, Dearden

Xerri, Okunbor, DBrown, Bateman

Do a Solid Brighton. Up Matty Ryan. Up the Pool.

Come on Citeh! Come on Citeh!

Glen Murray the old spud really doing his best efforts to cost Liverpool. Nearly got in way for Brighton goal, then single handily Cost his team the second goal

If Paps is named in the starting side on TLT, yes. If not, no. Simplez.

Who was it that called us over rated? Cop that. You lost once this year and didn’t win shit.
