    Yep this happened about 3 times during the game but he's the modern day Fensom who has an extremely high pain threshold.

    Hopefully Fonua is named. Might just grab him and Watson for Lamb and Sorenson and then from next week go about putting final team together. Team will be:

    Cook
    Fifita, Arrow
    Taumalolo, JFH, Martin
    DCE, Matterson
    Aitken, Hiku
    Ponga, Teddy, Walker

    Smith, Kikau, Murray, JFH
    Watson, Fonua, Brimson, RFM

    If a cheaper option is available I may skip Watson

    Thoughts guys?

    Pre fanhub round 11 score phuck up = 905 points rank 132 - this is the correct score/rank
    Post fanhub round 11 score phuck up = 934 points rank 105 - this is incorrect because it's picked up Martin's score who was in my emergencies over Capewell's score who I actually played.

    Referees have now been instructed to penalise players at dummy half who intentionally pass the ball into opposition players lying in the ruck

    My plan was to bring Cleary straight in for Kikau.

    I traded Arrow two weeks ago when he went down but feel like he is a must have. Better off double trading to get Arrow back in or just cut my losses and let him go. Halves is my biggest worry so could do kikau and JFH for mbye and arrow.

    Thoughts?

    Is cash generation the reasoning behind these trades? If so, then they seem decent.

    Even if you don't get it right points wise i.e. someone in your emg's gets a big score then at least you have him & he'll generate great cash flow. We can't always get it right but the main thing is at least you have him.

    Two Round 13 guys who should make a bit of cash and score well enough to be cover. If there is a cheaper option than Watson that shows up in TLT I will probably go in that direction.

    Can always use more cash.

    Holding all my borderline keepers until next week to see how origin teams unfold.

    They did the same to me. I traded in Brimson now I have his score as an emergency from RTS
