I need to cull Sezer but not sure if I should downgrade him or cut another cow like kbrom and go for a gun half.

Halves are cronk sezer elgey jacks

My shame is now known

i'd upgrade as Cronk is not setting the world a light

Just realised Cronk is only averaging 42. Allthough that is pretty much what he has done the last couple of years from memory so I shouldn't be surprised.

Cronk can wait

Unfortunately

What I meant was upgrade sezer as Cronk isn't a gun at this point so you could use the extra help in the halves

Keep Cronk as second half and upgrade Sezer

How did you pull up Sunday morning?  It was you throwing the cocktails down Saturday night wasn't it?

Haha it was mate. Bit of a new hobby. Trick is not to go too large too early or you mess yourself right up. Black coffee, bacon and eggs on Sunday morning and I was all good.

Finished a couple of bottles at the weekend so might have a trip to the booze shop and throw out some new ones this Saturday.

I've been tempted to bring Simpkins into my dairy farm, but he may be one too many.

I'd be leaning towards Simpkins because of the assurance of starting for a couple more weeks, plus getting some bench time when Peats comes back, but I'd expect Tyrone will avoid the utility role until Hayne comes back.

Not sure how well he plays in second row, but he provides the versatility.

Could also pick up DPP HOK soon? Not that it would be particularly useful in any scenario.

Here is my team after trades,traded out moga for fauimino cos he was pissing me off and wanted to save some cash lol. Winterstein makes way for Bodene although maybe I should hold winsterstein with his low b/e?

Smith Brailey
McGuire Wallace F.Kaufusi Ese ese
JDB Surgess Thompson Hess Yates Fauimono
Johnson Lamb Jacks Elgey
Aubusson Idris Kelly Suli
RTS Slater Cotric R.Jennings Phythian

254k in the kitty,thoughts?

What are the reliable cash cows you you have at the back then?? Idris has to be a specie compared to them if he's starting the game?? What have you got to lose?
Let's go Rennings.
Hang on, let's go STalakai.
I'm tossing up playing him over Kelly though.

Personally I think the extra points that Podene potentially makes for you over the next few weeks outweighs the cash Frankenstein does.

I also remember him guaranteeing Seggy deal to be done after round one

Technically with that statement, he was right 

Bah. Sue on the bench annoys me.

What are you doing with him Milchy? Or anyone else stuck with him

Last Saturday night was one of the strangest I have ever come across on the forums

I had the games recorded so didn't look at the forum for about 6 hours. Then I came on to catch up and deadset there were 15 or so pages and so much going on. I literally read it and went to bed, it was exhausting, haha.

It was amusing at times and then it all seemed to kick off from nowhere. Let's see what this Super Saturday brings.

Becoming Bodene I think.

Needed 80 minutes on the edge, and if I was going to pick someone with iffy positional security looks like it should have been Maubbs.

Sue in prop rotation not good for fantasy.

Super surprised he was benched to be honest I thought he was out performing Lawrence. Maybe Claw is untouchable

I've only made 3 trades so far.. what's the world come to?!

Spend two trades to change Sione to Bodene or hold firm?

I think 90% of it was about Hess
