He played five eighth in his junior days and I could have sworn he got a run there at one stage last year, but if not, my bad. He was certainly talked about as an option on the cowboys forum. Like I said it was from memory, I didn't check

all good mate

Mannering has a high BE mate of 73, I suggest you wait a week. He won't reach that unless he scores a try

Mannering anywhere under $500k is an absolute steal

Any trades this week will be made to ensure I will have the cash available to grab him next week

Yeah, I think that's what Bren meant; he's a pretty big blip on the radar after this week.

I'm hoping Mannering will hit 450k!

MCK named as 19th man? Good joke! Hahaha

Anyone know D Saifiti's break even?

I've got both Saifitis and they've made a tidy $212k between them. Seeing them appear on the bench for the second week in a row might mean it's time to think about ditching them though.

Not from the bench

BE of 10

Jacob's BE is 24 FYI

So I know mannering is the rage, but is it silly to be considering bodene? Big base stats but were those picking up mannering's slack? Havnt really got to watch any of the warriors yet

Is McGuire worth a trade over Origin

almost the same price and Mannering playing lock is a level above Bodene

Nope. Bodene is almost the best POD going around. Don't think he went above 5% ownership despite posting 50+ each week last year. Doesn't appear to live but he gets crazy good base stats. Will definitely consider him over Mannering next week

Cheers mate. They shouldn't lose money this week then. Maybe next week though. Be nice to find a cheapie FRF or 2RF - is this the week we'll see Chee Kam - or is he a ghost?

Bodene is a POD option, and should benefit with Johnson back in 7 and running off him.

Similarly going to be interesting to see how Cappy uses Leuluai & Hurrell/Sao this week.
Leuluai was playing some lock vs Manly, but now with Mannering back there is he a 20 min hooker?

I think I'm holding onto JSaifiti for the next week or two - in the same boat as you I can't find a cheapie or anyone I want to bring in. Thinking about Carter (to a gun) and Cody Walker (to a cheapie) over the next 2 weeks and then Saifiti (to a gun).

Trying to decide if Woods - Grant is worth the trade in and trade back out?

Just looking at my 17 for this week and realised I may be sticking Michael Gordon - my most expensive WFB/CTR - in the NPRs. Thinking of Jennings, Hunt and Holland in the CTRs with Bowen, Mitchell and Barba in the WFBs.

Just think Bowen might go well against Souths, same for Holland v the Warriors and Mitchell v Penrith. Suppose I could leave out Hunt for Gordon?
