Has a BE of 2, so that offers a bit more than not much. And when Sticky figures his team works better with him playing more minutes he might just be still making more than a bit of coin. Worth holding.

BE of 2 last week. Think it'll be close to 20 this week, and I wouldn't rely on Sticky figuring out shit.

DING DING Back out to103 though, got as high as 52 before Thompson started scoring well as didn't play him. I'll retire now I think.

quick fire and forget question, cause I have to go to work:

Is anyone thinking about SKD if he gets Moga's spot?

Still a mid ranger, but could see a bit more ball in hand, Moga was still getting 80ish run metres, is DPP and is more of a tackle breaker than Moga.

Whats the value?

At least its going to be fun trading Smith out and checking what you can get in different positions.

Cook being consistent this season has changed the dynamics of our fantasy teams now that Smith

has returned and lets face it, been found wanting. I think he wants those 400 games and Bellamy

for years has been trying to scale back his workload. Of course if Storm continue to play poorly all bets

are off. Those last two words and new sentence were for Finchy.

Ditched Carty for Murray last week otherwise he'd be the one to go. Havili probably still has a bit of coin to make, but not much and Maloney should make a lot more with Panthers run  over next month or so (although don't fancy playing him in the 17 against Hess and Taumalolo this week).

Panthers have the Eels next week. Cowboys week 9.

Yes, I would think about him. Round 13 player too. Will have fairly high BE so could wait and see, and it might be Ross that goes to centre not SKD too.

Double post

I think you will find him to be a frustrating player to own, lots of negatives from doing stupid stuff. Why Roosters got rid of him.

Hahaha... I was looking at last week's fixtures, where Maloney scored 81... against Hess and Taumalolo. So much for judging match-ups.

He's too quick for em

People will be getting Maloney?. Was obviously great this past week, but he is usually a terrible Fantasy player (including a -4 in Round 1). I know he will do more in Clearys absence but Jesus, it is a little risky.

I wouldn't want him in my fantasy team either if I were Trent Robinson.

Obviously the price is a major drawcard, and is a perfect swap for Carty. If May comes into the team, he's probably not worth it, but if Peachy stays at 6, Maloney is probably worth a punt.

Perfect POD material. Most will steer clear, but could pay off huge for those that take a chance

I was hot, hot, hot to pick him up before this game, but I am starting to think he is probably only a ~45 point player, which only makes him about 25k undervalued after tomorrows pricerise. Anybody disagree and think he will hit a 50+ average for the season? I have gone cold, cold, cold and need some convincing.

If Arthur said he was playing from the bench for the rest of the season I would snap him up. His starting average is lower.

Thumbs up for starters.

The 400 game thing was one of the first things I thought of when watching Smith the last two weeks. I'm conflicted to trade him or not. It's crazy we are even talking about trading him but he's just not the Storm Machine lately.

When that -4 rolls off his averages he will be doing great for some quick money.

I just wish Panthers were playing earlier each weekend the next few weeks. Would have been the perfect high variance loophole option to bring in on the weeks he goes huge and get to avoid on the weeks that he scores badly.

812 for the week.

Rankings from 5 figures to about 3300. And with a $600k bankroll think I can start making some serious moves.
Can't win the comp but can start my rise up the rankings

Not that many in the Top 100 with decent bank going on their team value this week.

For me Smith to Maloney..

A sentence I thought I’d never write..
