None of the reserves have been named in Q CUP for the Broncos.

When they travelled to Darwin they took 3 extras with them. May be the same for the Townsville trip.

Piakura is getting close to a debut it seems.

It's no good to owners if he's 18... probably worse because there's risk of a low score and a screwed loop.

After 20 minutes last week, I thought he might have a chance to come back for Isaako. After 80, I knew he wouldn't. Their 3/4s are pretty safe, I think. Arthars was actually pretty good last week, and Staggs back soon would see Niu drop another rung down. I'm selling.

Definitely Brimson if you have that budget

Nofo not a bad price or Herbie F same season avg as Nofo and higher peak performance for 50k less

I forgot he had gotten that cheap, I own him already though so I should have known.

Yeah had a look at Herbie, gut is very against him though

Yeah... Fuck centres.

I wouldn’t sweat fielding 17 to the point of getting some winger you don’t want after that 1 round mate. Just field 14-15.

Drinkwater re-signed with Cowboys.

Tidied up the player ownership page and put a link to it in the main menu of the website.

Cini may be a winger in a bad team with poor job security. But its pretty much him or play 16 this week and hope Momo goes straight back to starting.

Tempted to just play 16, and Momo to Peachey (or maybe even Ramien) if I need to field a team. Save a trade that way

On the other hand, if Hampton is out long term, no benefit in keeping him, so may as well move him on now to someone who can play for me.

Would this be a trade in for Papy for you?

Warming to the idea of Nofo or Brimson in for him myself.. Get two extra games out of them over the next wee while and bank $330k+ for guns in other positions such as Api

Just for Hampton mate. Already own Brimson so looking for other options, Papy will sit on the pine till he is back.

The Cowboys team list notes that Hampton is out for an extended period. He's gone for me.

Just noticed that Tom Dearden is not named in Queensland Cup - may be on his way to the Cowboys now I reckon

This is my exact issue.. Hampton's gone for a long time so there's no point keeping him. I'm thinking of getting Cini, with the intention/hope of upgrading him to Lomax once he's back, however the JS for Cini is my only concern. I'd happily take 20/25 pts from him for the next 4/5 weeks and then upping to a keeper.

Ramien at the moment seems a bad decision as he's missing Rd13

If I am getting a replacement for Momirovski, I don't give a shit about byes. Just want a CTR who will score well that I can keep in my team for the rest of the comp,

Burnt too many trades already to care about bye coverage.

Hampton is basically gone, but still tossing up whether to send him to another CTR or not.
Can bring in Starling for the same price if I want a punt on Hodgson not coming back. Or even another downgrade like Walsh. Or Ben Marschke with Verrills out for a while

Does Roberts have a return date (if he'll even make first grade when he comes back) ?
I think he might end up in my team for the rest of the year as a red dot.
Too cheap to downgrade so unless someone like Suaalii comes in can't imagine ever having someone worthwhile to trade him too.

Tigers said around 4 weeks. Probably plays round 13.

He probably comes back into the side. Despite low fantasy scores = "he's due to be dropped", who is keeping him out?

I'll probably just hold for now because he's already worthless.

Ah ok. Nofo really seems like the obvious (and almost only) option then if you want a rd13 player at that price
