    Little about me...I'm an American that lives in Portugal but spent a summer down under and fell in love w/ NRL.

    I hope to begin contributing to the forum, as much as an American can. Haha. I'd appreciate a little advice for this week if anyone would be so willing

    Nice rank and team depth is impressive, especially considering your injuries. Much cash in the bank and how many trades left?

    360 were saying he is a gun goal kicker. I find it strange though as well, why put a debutant under even more pressure when you already have a decent goal kicker.

    So was Holland but rest of his pal left a lot to be desired  Laugh 3

    I'm just mad at potentially losing Mbye conversion points  Sad

    Bit sick of the CTR and WFBs merry-go round. I want to set and forget them.
    So this weeks trades are,
    Kennar>RTS and Hiku>C. Scott.
    Back 5 is now set as Scott, Crocker, RTS, Ponga and Teddy.
    Happy to take the punt that the first three can start scoring well again. At their prices I'd rather have proven performers with long term security over some of the other players people have been talking about.
    I have Isaako as NPR to cover Scott and as soon as Scott is over the injury he'll be gone. Happy to run with no CTR cover so I can find another cow.

    Careful with Scott mate, Storm notorious for masking player injuries, Scott named after expecting more than a few weeks out after original diagnosis on ankle injury

    I love Scott though so reckon he is a great pick if healthy

    Played lock on the weekend and played well. Not sure if this was his first time there or what. He’s been having a standout season though. Who is the other 2RF for the dogs? Jackson? Who TF has been playing lock? Elliot? To me that’s where Martin comes in.

    On the Bulldogs their rep prop Klemmer always reminds me of Paul Sironen. Saves his best football for rep football.

    I wasn't going to trade but now I am considering doing Isaako and Hiku to Fonua and Marsters. Leaves my team as

    Smith (c)
    Kikau/Arrow
    Murray/RFM/JTurbo
    DCE/Matterson
    Marsters/Aitken
    Ponga/TTurbo/JMK

    Cook, JFH, Havili, Sua'a
    Gossie/Fonua/Katoa/Cogger

    158 in the bank. Only have 20 trades left, which is a bit of a worry.

      Current date/time is Mon Apr 29, 2024 8:10 am
