    Need to take a risk somewhere and that one feels like it could work. Might bring in Nofo for extra PODnesss

    Thoughts?

    I think this will be the first time that I will bench SMat this week. I dunno about trading, don't forget after next week, Knights play 18 and 19, so he'll be perfect for those rounds. Nofo plays next week, but not 18.

    Hey Shanbon, not sure if it helps mate but I just read this on Foxsports

    "Late mail: Corey Norman has travelled with the team and needs to pass a fitness test. He will replace Clint Gutherson in the halves if fit and Gutherson will move to the centres. Kirisome Auva’a is battling a knee injury."

    Just thinking though, don't forget, Griffin could come on at hooker, move Tohu back to second row and Smith plays at half?  Or KBrom has played some hooker before too I believe.  Smith could even start at half, Griffin to start at hooker then KBrom comes on to relieve him or whatever.

    Dunno if this is good or bad for Munster who I'm looking at trading in.  Might lean toward Cleary and get one more look at Munster and get him next week if Ponga don't get a run.  

    Wasn't gonna play Felise cause his score last week had a large line break and try, but he's obviously set for 80 again.  Was gonna play Elliot over him who will bounce back big time IMO.

    Also wolfy, same page(foxsports) had this to say, hope its something

    "NRL ROUND 14 LATE MAIL — Melbourne has dropped a selection bombshell in resting superstar Cooper Cronk for Thursday’s blockbuster clash with Cronulla.
    Cronk will sit out the grand final rematch at Shark Park and is replaced by backrower Tohu Harris at halfback.
    It’s a shock given the pedestal this rivalry has been put on. Melbourne captain Cameron Smith will return to the field despite speculation the hooker is battling a rib/sternum injury." (my emphasis)

    Yeah, that's probably the case, but I remember I think two years ago where Smith jumped in the halves for a few weeks and even got DPP status and it really affected his fantasy scores. It's hard to see a halves combo of Munster/Harris running the team against the Sharks, but Smith will probably stay in the hooker role and control the team anyway. Could be up for a big game, that would be bloody right.

    I so want to bring in Teddy, but bringing in Rapa aswell seems bonkers as none of them play bye rounds.


    Although neither do Cotric or RTS.......... Hmmmmmm

    Would you do Mitchell to Lolohea (via Cotric).

    If you had to choose between Munster and Cleary this week who would you trade in? The other will come in via Slater next week,I'm just trying to work out which one for this week

    Anyone know why MWZ has been left out for MCK?

    Was he injured last week? and hence Cleary is giving him time to come back, or has he lost the spot to MCK?

    With a BE of 9, MCK being rather rubbish and the team playing in rd15, I was really hoping for him to get some more game time. Tigers forum is highlighting that one as the shithouse team call of the week.

    Likely for a late callup if fit?

    Decided to bring in Cleary this week, Flirted briefly with DCE but think Cleary just edges him

    In next couple of weeks turn RTS and Slater into 2 of Munster/Mansour/Tedesco/TTurbo.

    Now main decisions are whther to play Lolohea or C Walker.
    And also Gurgess of James Graham (will go Gurgess i think, as if Graham is a late withdrawal I have nobody I can replace him with)

      Current date/time is Sun Apr 28, 2024 5:23 pm
