Has anyone jumped on Nathan Milone from the Tigers?

I'd say Aloiai's a good chance to start at Lock with Sue out. Edwards is returning from injury and Aloiai's been pretty solid in the limited minutes he's had so I think he'll get an opportunity to start this week. However I can't be entirely sure so won't be reserving him but at least he'll start making a bit more cash.

I did it once but he was furious - he dropped most of his chips.

Is this trade too sideways? PatMat and Hopoate for Croker and Holland?
think patmat has done his 122k dash and hoppa aint gonna play the byes on account of them being on sunday i think

Cooper starting, will be keeping an eye on him and seeing if he returns back to 60mins as he is a decent price

I own Hopoate & he scored 49 last week & he's scoring well & with a b/e of 25 he's still going to earn cash. Mata'utia has a b/e of 30 & may struggle to reach that v the Broncos so I would sell him for Holland if you need to. I know Croker is tempting but like any ctr their scores are volatile & up against the Sharks this week who are defensibly strong he could very well have a lowest scoring game.

Cheers - I am worried about job security with holland but worth the punt i spose with b/e of -12 and least wont lose money if he sits couple weeks out

I like the way we do it, mainly you, can show growth year on year.

If he keeps banging over those goals which are so important in today's game with the teams so even & every point matters they will not drop him.

I reckon Des said Stanley is the favourite for that spot to keep Holland humble and grounded. Seems the type of player to get ahead of himself

Yeah that comment KFP made about Holland in reserve grade just staying out wide on defense & not being interested in getting into dummy half & doing the hard yards would suggest that he felt he would automatically get a go in 1st grade when Stanley got injured. Maybe an inflated ego as you suggest mate.

Round 7 Match Thread

Before super Saturday kicks off, let's talk about the games goings on in the match thread

Anybody know if there is any truth to the rumour that Jeremy Smith injured for the knights?
If J.Saifiti starts, I would rather play him over Taylor with Roberts back.
But from the bench he just isn't worth it.

Yeh smith is out

thanks bud.
Still no guarantee Saifiti starts (or that Roberts will be immediately dominant after his injury for that matter), but I will take the risk.

Taylor, Packer and Saifiti... Last 2 reserves?
