Surely not a pod?

Price and Prince LOL... I'm thinking I might end up just going with an NPR for Prince and playing an 18th man every week. Little trickier to navigate mind, with the byes every week.

Reading the first part of your post I thought you were trading Hindmarsh out

Anyone buying Brett Kearney 303k 2fr/hlf with b/e of -9.
Anyone buying Lee Hookey 443k ctr/wfb with b/e -35.
Anyone buying Gavin Cooper 422k 2fr/ctr with b/e 6.

Heavily considered the first two last week and cooper when he was first named a few weeks ago. Need to check again who is out for me to see if I have enough cash for a gun but presuming I don't either or both of the top 2 will be heavily considered.

Also Michy are you going to add these new players to your spreadsheet for next round:
Debuted round 5 - Zeb Taia - Eels
Debuted round 6 - Vince Mellors - Roosters
Debuted round 6 - Chris Paterson - Wests
Debuted round 7 - Ashley Graham - Cowboys (there is also another Ashley Graham at the Eels)

Debuted round 7 - Lufi Manua - Roosters
Debuted round 7 - Setaimata Sa - Roosters

Brett Kearney - Very likely. I'd be surprised if at least a quarter of teams don't buy him this week.

Lee Hookey - Have him. But if I didn't I probably wouldn't. Has already had $200K in price rises, and is priced at a 30 average. It seems unlikely many/any Wings average 40 across the season, so feel that horse has bolted.

Gavin Cooper - Named at CTR but seemingly shifted to LCK for the game. Awkward price if his role going forward is at CTR. Could be interesting if he cements a back row spot.

Cheers boys. I think my trades will be:
Ben Hannant out - Corey Parker in &
Brett Stewart out - Brett Kearney in

Not sure on Corey Parker though. I could also go down the route of buying large for Brett Stewart at ctr or wfb & Brett Kearrney for Ben Hannant. I think Corey Parker if gk will get extras & he also likes tackling & giving a few offloads so could do pretty well in this format.

The 2006 POD Champion of Champions: Round 6


Round 6 was a much better round for most teams with three BK's making the POD top 8 - a gun, a cow and a middy.
MoanaMan managed to get the top two PODs this week, while Steven Bell's try scoring run finally ended making him the worst value POD this week.

R6 - THE TOP 8 AND THE BOTTOM 4:

Code Delta continues to be unstoppable with 9 POD's and topped the round scoreboard for the third time this season.

R6 - SCOREBOARD:

This week saw MoanaMan as the biggest mover, rocketing to third place with only 2 points separating 3rd from 6th.

R6 - OVERALL STANDINGS:

The 2006 POD Survivor Head to Head series Round 6:


Another round, another top of the table clash (3. HereforBEs vs 5. MoanaMan), and another upset...

R6 - ULTIMATE POD H2H SURVIVOR:

Congrats this week to #19 GreenMachine on a big victory over #6 Welshy.

R6 - ULTIMATE POD H2H SURVIVOR LEADERBOARD:

Empyreal continues to hold on to first spot, with three teams only a point behind.

That's it. Time for me to figure out my trades.
Brett Kearney will definitely not be a POD this round!

Never thought ill have such a love hate affair with Milton Thaiday............

omg Anthony Minichiello out for the season with his back (I know how he feels) & Amos Roberts the try scoring machine starting at fullback. I don't think I can pass that up especially when tries/lb's are gold in this format:
Brett Stewart out - Amos Roberts in
Ben Hannant out - Brett Kearney in

Cooper made 27 tackles and 133m in his only start at centre. 45 points without a try. I'm all over that like a rash.

Hookey - Surely he can't keep scoring like that either.

Kearney's base stats aren't good enough. I think he'll be rocks and diamonds. I might've considered him if I could afford to not play him in my 17.

Tom Learoyd-Lars out Gorrell In
Thaiday Out Kearney in
war chest built for Round 8!

We just finished R6. Gone from 22nd (LAST) to 11th since the end of R2, which means I'll be 1st by end of R10 #maths

Still being tempted by the non-Gallen Sharks 2RFs this week (Thompson, Williams) but I think I'm going to make the two most safe and boring trade-ins possible. You'll know when I know.

Cutting my most shitto WFB cheapies. Purtell - after making a solid $1,333 per week - and Simmonds.

Considered Kearney from this list

Hookey's ship has sailed for mine with plenty of tries already scored
Cooper didn't really hit his straps from memory until after his time at the Gold Coast(who currently don't exist) so is a no for me

Wow I don't even remember him at the GCT. At Panthers, yes. I think 2007-09 I stopped paying attention to NRL pretty much altogether. Fortunately got back into it in time for the best season ever (2010).
