10 trades left so definitely going to get Fainu. Might trade Dearden for him and boot Havili from the 17 this week. Keep him for that extra $5 he'll hopefully make

I thought so. So with SJ this year he is averaging this for base stats (6 games, not including his injured game
Points/per
Kick Metres = 13.4/game
Tackles = 14/game
Metres Gained = 5.7/game
Goals = 4.34/game
Total = 37.44/game
If we add in his demerits
Missed Tackles = -4/game
Errors = -3.2/game
Total = 30.24 in base stats a game.
It's hard because I guess you may also say in his return game he made 9 tackles, miss 4 and only ran 19 metres... so you could say he was getting back into it.
Also would you ass forced drop outs for Halves (as they are generally doing the kicking)?
30.24 points a game in base stats is pretty good considering SJ is also averaging 1.8 TB's a game, 1 LBA a game and nearly 1 offload a game. Any other attacking stats such as TA's, Tries and LB's would be very welcome.
Yeah and I think the key for SJ is to look at his base stats for previous seasons, but also that while not considered base stats, when he is on top of his game he can rack up some significant attacking stats. For SJ, its those attacking stats which differentiated him from most of the rest of the halves as a gun in seasons gone by. The question remains, will/can he get back to those levels for the Sharks.
I quite like the look of him for the Kiwis last weekend. Taking on the line is a big thing for SJ. When he does that with confidence he tends to hit 50+ fantasy scores!

He did it a fair few times last weekend too. I think with Townsend controlling the team and guys like graham, fifi, gal around him plus the addition of Xerri and Nikora on his edge he will be able to hit 50+ in the back end of the year. He was averaging 49 before his injury with 38,61,56,35,55. I am happy with that as his last two scores are 7 (injury), and 21 (game back from injury with 10 points in demerits and only 19 running metres - 1 point)

I think I'm going to go CNK and Havili > Fainu and Tevaga. Why the fuck not.

By the way, did anyone see the netball game last night between the NZ men and the NZ women?
I didnt see the game admittedly, but saw the result - a 4 point win to the men.
As a sports fanatic I found the result quite interesting.

I think with Hodgson back he will create more for CNK & get him more involved in attack much more than Havili did.
Thanks mate. Havilli definitely a trade before CNK regardless of BE. CNK has the spot all year.

IF CNK shows me he can still be a 40+ scorer this weekend he may win himself that jersey all year

First time of the year I've decided to chuck the C on Smith.
I mean he's reliable and I know he'll bring his best against the Chooks but when Cook got 64 and Lolo is in for big minutes with a weakened forward pack, I am worried I might not have picked the best option.

A couple of days ago he said there were no concerns. Although he isn't always the best source of info.

I am thinking that I might need to pull the trigger on Lomax->Carrigan this week, just because Carrigan's BE is low and my funds are tight.
Using the trade now is making me feel pretty uncomfortable though, but I'm not sure there are going to be any better cheap options for next round.
The alternative is to wait and hope that P Kaufusi starts for the Dragons.

From what I've read and what people who watched have told me it sounds like Junior Levi (2.18m shooter) won them the game.
People have said the ferns looked a lot fitter, faster and far more well drilled than the men which makes sense as the men's team is basically an amateur team.
I recall seeing Noeline saying that the reason she wants the ferns playing the men is because the men are a lot more creative/off the cuff than womens team which is tough to defend so she wants the ferns to get used to that plus the obvious physicality they bring to the court.
I've played a lot of indoor netball and it's a surprisingly physically tough game.

Did he? I thought I watched him pretty closely last week and he basically did squat at the attacking end other than set up that one try toward the end. 19 RMs from what I can see, no TBs....

Let's be honest, chances are that there'll be about 10 points between the three of Cook, Smith and Taumalolo. Unlikely any of them go sub-50 or 80+
Don't go kicking yourself for missing out on half a dozen points because you picked one great captain option over another great captain option.
If you captain Isaako, that's another story.

Fuck, I can go Havilli and Morgan to Watson and Fainu with 3K spare. Was doing sums in my head and I was sure I could, winning. Watch Morgan be right to play now.

I just read that Morgan has been rested all week with a minor shoulder problem & Green said he'll be gtg so at least that's 1 less headache for you bro.

Yeah, that all makes sense to me. Yeah I've played quite a bit of indoor as well.
I heard he was a big boy, 30cm taller than the woman defending him.
That said, you've still gotta get the ball up court to feed it to him....
Apparently there's gonna be a rematch.
I think its a little embarrassing for NZ Netball to be honest. Im not a big fan of theirs either..I think they are a pretty poorly run organisation and dont have time for many people involved from the CEO down to a number of the players (have a little bit of inside knowledge of all that too).

Also does Dearden come straight back into the Broncos when fit? Or is he done for this season?
Wait. When's Dearden due back ?
