    If i wait until next week, it can be Martin instead.

    Id trade Brown mate regardless.

    I tossed up "Rhyse Lightning" last night, but I like Ricky Martin better.

    I like just 'Martin' personally. Conjures up images of Taupau, which is slightly more intimidating than Ricky Martin.

    Might have just jagged the #17 jersey over JMK and Su'a for next week too.

    Sua would have hit 50+ if he had of played 80 again. Time to pen an angry letter to Wayne. I expect him to care.

    I was quite hesitant to bring him in. Then I realised it lets me get Fifita, so happy days so far. Oh except JMK was in my 17

    If Mbye had just kept his hands to himself, we might have got golden point, and bigger fantasy scores all round

    Out of context Chewie, I did say slightly more intimidating Laughing

    Yeah was disappointed when he was subbed off, but think he only played 80 last week because of McGuire and Lodge hooked/injured.

    Pretty close between Su'a and Ricky Latino next week though.

    thats a good point. Hard to know what to make of the subs last night, they were a bit all over the shop with Niko going to half, Bird back row, etc.

    Which essentially cost them the game. I think I'll do Mbye>Martin next week and just run Ponga Teddy Thompson at WFB

    I should be stoked that i picked and played Martin, and happy that my weakest link Isaako got a centre pass mark. But Mbye's 25 has me down in the dumps on that game. Which is nuts because 121 for those 3 players is more than i had estimated to begin with.

    It's almost like I can't be happy unless every single player in my team does well, which happens so infrequently the sentiment is ridiculous.

    Maybe i secretly hate myself and Fantasy is just a way to fetishize that sadness. It certainly would be a handy tool for masochists,

    Or maybe I just need a coffee.

    I'm holding Brown one more week just because I had Dugan and Doueihi to flick. I'm thinking he might make a surprise round 11 return, but if not, I consider him cash ITB for next week's upgrades Smile

    Don't worry it's just the fantasy blues.
