NRL Fantasy Part 75 - Seibold and Seibeautiful

Just run Bob Jane mate.

Playing him there is exactly what I'm doing it's everything else that's the problem. No coverage in the outside backs and Clune/Siro as 17th man.

I think I phrased it wrong, no maybe's about it I'm really in that much trouble.

We're still expecting 55-60 on an edge right?? Against Cowboys edges? Still, wouldn't surprise me if all three scored within 5 points of each other. Talau could certainly score a brace against the dogs, but is also bound to score in the teens any week now when he isn't able to save his score with a try.

TL;DR: I have NFI

It’s hard to say whether Siro gets 40mins or whether he gets 55mins once he comes on.

With Demetriou looking to manage our forwards mins it wouldn’t surprise me if say Siro comes on 24mins in and comes off at around the 66mins mark.

Demetriou said it’s been a big few weeks for Siro so they’re looking to manage that and not burn him out.

He also has full faith in Knight to do a good job for us like he has the last two weeks.

Murray seems a bit burnt out to and a bit down on form this season so playing him some mins on the edge gets his smaller body away from the tough grind in the middle.

I reckon Arrow will play 13 next year and Murray plays 12.

I'm in the top 250 but damn I could be set for a real tumble down the rankings. All those damn trades wasted on CTR's coming back to bite me.  

I haven't had prop or centre coverage for at least a month and survived so far. Sometimes you don't always need coverage in every position, just some luck.

Siro will score roughly the same if he’s 35-40 in middle or 55-60 on the edge anyway. I think I’m playing  Beaurepaires over him.

@filthridden wrote:Thoughts on who we're bringing in for Aubs?

Talau and Brenko looking like the top of my list so far.

Depends if you want to run with centre cover or not I guess.

I have S. Crichton and Latrell at centre and don’t think I can be fucked wasting another trade on a centre.

Siro as 17th man looks shaky so I need to strengthen that position.

B. Smith, Flegler, Nikorima, Brooks, Dearden, Paseka. I’m looking at these guys. Dearden, Flegler and Brooks I am most keen on.


McIntyre is also another option.


How many mins do we expect Flegler to get now TPJ and Lodge are done?

He’s coming on to play in the second row apparently with Murray moving to lock.

I'm taking Luai's 37 in the loop over Sironen, he might get 35 or thereabouts but will be surprised if he gets a 40.

Yeah I’d take the 37

I’m taking BLee 40 at CTR and then it’s McIntyre vs Siro at 17. McIntyre seems a solid 30 minimum whereas Siro could be 20-40 due to role uncertainty. Not sure what to do with it

I saw the ball was just on the dead ball line mate. I believe the bunker nailed this call so credit where it’s due to them.

Surely.  It's only been Fox sports as far as I know saying he's unlikely.  I don't think there's been any other official source on him being out.

I am praying for a Taupau miracle in that he plays so I don’t have to play Siro.

Someone mentioned yesterday, we pray he is on Morgan's side

Might play HTF over Siro. No time for bench forwards stinking up scores

I was going to loop Siro vs Young but it's more exciting to loop HTF vs Young.

At least HTF has 80 minutes to do something. Could be absolutely anything with Sironen.

It’s probably gonna be the wrong decision but stuff it

I had heard a rumour yesterday that Aubo only had a minor sprain and he'll be fine, so much for that.

"SBW admits he is no spring chicken" 

Obviously! As he is a rooster.

Not long now til we get a bit of Marty news.

Hmmmm.......... rumour versus Rooster's official statement. I know which one I'm going for.

He is playing mate.

Do it. Cows will surely put up a fight and Hammer will get more base stats from returns, you would think.
