Hurrell drops off extended bench.

So Ayshford stays? Ha McFadden just doesn't like Hurrell does he. Even if Konnie's a bit suspect in defence at least he can actually offer something threatening in attack.

Forgetting Fantasy , it was an absolute pleasure watching Te Maire Martin , thats is all carry on...............

Bren wrote:So with Segeyaro not due back till round 7 I think? Will TMM play until then or was it just because Merrin was out and Peachey switched to 2RF?

I tend to agree that it was only because Merrin was out but you'd think the fact they just beat the premiership favourites you'd try to keep the same side

Can't believe Koni is running around with the nswcup squad

I thought the Cowboys would be Premiership favs since they have managed to keep the exact same squad together?

You missed the point where I was trying to shift the favoritism onto the Cowboys. This forum needs a flying under the radar emoticon.

Haha shift away

Would it be too early to upgrade Hastings?

Spewing got merrin and green in my starting 17 so gonna only have 16 scorers with an AE. Currently up 7000+ spots this week. 521 with surgess (c), smith , lawrence and walker to go hping for a 800 + if carter who i could of replaced with merrin goes big im gonna be spewing.

Oh yes. BE this week -3, next week still in low single digits. He's got around $100,000 still to earn, at least, and one big game would blow past that. Give him another 3-4 weeks I reckon.

To upgrade to a gun? Yes. Let Hastings earn you a bit of cash now and wait for the big names to steady their form and drop down to their low point before you grab them.

To do a slightly sideways upgrade to someone like TMM? Personally don't think I will but it is an option. TMM showed enough that he could be a little money earner for a short period of time and rack up cash much quicker than Hastings. He would be a more appealing cash cow to me than Walker as we are yet to see how Walker goes in a game where his team don't dominate. But in saying that it is does cost an extra trade and there is no guarantee for the while on whether TMM keeps his spot in the next few weeks while Hastings will be there until at least when Pearce returns and they decide on Hastings vs JNiko as partner

Moylan, Merrin and Blake back next week. TMM will keep his spot.

Hmm wondering if I stick with Surgess as captain or go with Smith... Decisions

The Moylan to half possibility is a big negative towards him though. Soward will stay as the dominant kicker and provide some stability alongside Moylan should he switch there

I thought you couldn't switch captains mid round. If you can I would go Smith. Warriors always a big test for the Storm and have had success against them when they go with big bodies up the middle and play to their strengths. I'm picking a big game for Big Ben and hopefully that means more tackles for Smith

Yeah I know he has money to be made. I was thinking of Upgrading him to Norman. Good byes. I doubt Foran will take the dominant kicking role at all this year. He was even subbed off with 5 to go. If they get out to massive lead he could get a 20min early mark. All positive signs for Norman

You must be talking about a different comp as your (c) is already locked in.
