Almost traded him this week, would have if Moses injury news was correct

Yeo will still play big minutes when the Panthers aren't steamrolling the opposition. I have to admit though he's been pissing me off lately.

Interesting one Havili is. In 3 games last season when Hodgson was out he started and averaged 40 over the 3 games, with Starling on the bench relieving him. He averaged about 60 mins over those 3 games. He will still be under 400k next week so its a hard one.

Wouldnt be surprised to see something like Havili playing 40 at hooker, 20 at lock, with Starling 40 mins hooker and Sutton 60 at lock.

Missed the game, any reason O'Donnell only got 20 mins? Honestly can't remember the last time Lui played 60 mins in one game...

Missed the last game. Could someone summarize Young's performance? Thanks.

911 with Dce matterson and Ponga to go.

What are people gonna do who are Latrell owners?

Would going Latrell to James Roberts be an ok move? It’s one I’m considering.

Or just hold Latrell and cop the 2 weeks?

Seemed to be playing ok. Guess sticky just wanted experience on the park vs Melbourne.

Reminds me of him playing Havili as starting hooker for less than 40 minutes the last few years, has done that to him 8 times. Picking Havili with Starling on the bench has significant risks.

@revraiser well done on the win mate! Got my first win of the season in the Dogs game too! Have been entering around 5 teams every game/slate so it's really just cleaning up my losses from rounds 3 and 4 but feels great nonetheless! Username on there is sporttechdaily

Few popular players in action tomorrow

Ponga, Best, Matterson, DCE, Jurbo, McInnes, Lomax (maybe Taupau if people pulled the trigger)
Plus any loops to get added in

If you don't have at least a couple of them probably going to drop some ranks

Quite a few people (me included) will be hoping Ponga bounces back with a big score

Disagree on Havili. He'll be priced at an avg around 27. Raiders pack depth is depleted and he'd be their primary hooker and could cover for lock if needed too. Can comfortably see him averaging 40+ in around 60 mins which he's done in games over 40 mins throughout his career.

Also 2018 specifically when he had the run of games covering for Hodgson, he averaged 42 in around 60 mins. Will be buying him straight away Monday morning.

Completing a trio of 70s for my WFB would be grand

Roberts is one option I'm considering.

Also considering trading to a forward and playing Crichto + Niu as centres (No cover except for Talau)

No need to rush a decision.

Are you buying him to play in your 17, or as a cash grab?

What do you make of Young’s scoring right now? Do you see him picking up at all?

If I sold Latrell to another player who isn’t a centre then I’d have S. Crichton and Niu but no cover which probs isn’t wise.

If Lomax and Niu both playing I'd be happy to roll with them to be honest. Both could be more reliable point scorers than Latrell anyway.

Two weeks not confirmed yet is it? Or is it?

He'd be my 17th or 18th man in the short term. Atm it's jaydn sua. Would most likely trade him later on, think he should be able to make 150-200k.

I don’t think we should fight it.

Havili will be around 100k cheaper and dpp so I'd get him tbh. Never considered Young for my team but had a quick look and looks like he would've been a decent buy two weeks ago but not now with so many other options presenting themselves.
