Start of the round I offered Beast Semi/Guth/ATaylor & FKaufusi for Arey and JPapalii. He pm'd me saying he would accept at end of round. Guth went down and Beast accepted, Indont know if he hadn't seen the news or not or thought the injury was less severe.
I then offered Beast NRoss as an extra to at least put a plaster over the Guth injury.

Whose promoting for next season?

what was the L1 trade involving Guth?

TFBB and Random are tied at the top, Im 3rd a game behind with Milch, Franko and Beast 3/4 games back

how is L1 looking?

Swapped Roberts for Gutho. Mearcats offered it and the Eels soft schedule (only 1 top 8 opponent, Bris x2) was too hard to resist. Not as soft as Gutho's ACL though.

SI is in the "mathematical chance" of avoiding relegation conversation but looks pretty cooked at 3 wins behind 7th, Mearcats is nigh-on-uncatchable 3 wins ahead of 2nd and everyone else is within 2 wins of each other.

Ill be without

Rapana
Slater
Merrin
Smith
Aitken

Johnson. Gutherson. /argument.

Like I said mate happy to part with Ross to cover your Guth loss

na it's allgood mate. Would rather have Holmes just come back into my side for Gutho than go with Ross

It does end the argument in the sense that your injuries dont come close to mine and anything other then a comfortable victory will be seen as the biggest choke in ultimate history.

Gutherson would barely make my best side.

Ah yes, the Ice State of Origin approach. The historically better side is missing the best player in the league and gun FB but we need to pretend that it doesn't almost cripple them.

Of the 5 players you named, 2 aren't even injured and a third, Merrin, wouldn't make your side anyway.

Twal, Bunty or Elliott last 2RF/FR spot? Papalii, Merrin and Harris all out limiting my better scoring options

I dunno if I'd have the balls to play Twal but I will say I think the blokes got something! Here's hoping the current owners release him to a club with more potential. A move north would be good.

Also, how is that trade in your favour @SI? Must be struggling to release Yeo for those plebs. #suspect

Went with Bunty and hoping he gets 80, dodged the bullet with Elliott

what's the trade?

Yeo and Cam King for Peats and Latrell. Not terrible but I'd be wanting more than that for one of the highest scoring Ctrs in the game. Maybe I'm just salty cos it was to Bren who I'm against this week. Not stressed, I'm staying in L1 regardless.

Who is the starting hooking for both teams?

I will assume you are kidding right?

I was stuck with 3 hookers, 2 of which aren't playing in the foreseeable future, and the 3rd (whom I traded) that was averaging 28.  I now have a hooker averaging low 40's?

I had 5 fullbacks, 4 of who weren't even averaging 30.  Latrell is now my second highest fullback.

Plebs to the bloke on top maybe, deadset, I have Feki averaging 24 and Maumalo averaging 25.

I had Friend, Nikorima and King.

Clearly King is the only one playing this week and he is averaging 28.  I got Peats who is averaging 42 for him.

I got Latrell in averaging 32 for Yeo, who has been shit and was also averaging only 32 for his last 5 before tonight-including 3 scores of 30 or less.

Can't see anything wrong with that trade, I would of taken it! Who is now your CTR for the departed Yeo?
