I had Haas, Carrigan, Fifita and Bateman and basically held ranking position.

Captain Haas only 81. Oh no.

967, 86th for the round, Ponga and Talau/ McIntyre to play. Not decided yet which one, probably Talau if McIntyre bench. Best start to a round for a long time, up to 1018 overall but expect to slide back with Dce and jurbo to play.

5 weeks I haven't captained Haas and 5 weeks he has outscored my C choice.

I'm almost too proud to go back at this stage.

I have no idea what to do with Aubo + 194k

Had the in-laws around, just catching up, but why is Dicko coaching the Broncos

A centre?

I captained Haas last week but otherwise I'm in the same boat.

Captained Teddy 4 weeks straight (rounds 9-13), and got scores of 76, 62, 57, 50, then Haas last week for 78, then Cleary's 61 this week.

Haas meanwhile got scores of 57, 79, 64, 72 and 81 in the weeks I didn't captain him, so I've lost a total of 47 points over those 5 weeks compared to just captaining Haas every week.

If we take out that first week, then it becomes even worse, and I've lost 66 points.

Great score mate.

Only 3 trades left now so hoping the carnage slows down so can ride out the next few rounds without having to make any change. McIntyre/ Starling/ HTF for 17th player with Lam and Kod as red dots.

Lol Peter Gentle just said they can't run Haas into the ground, essentially referring to him playing 80 every week. I've only been saying that all season

Got Ponga, Mann and Talau coming up, unless Ponga can jag another big score, I'll be lucky to crack 850

You think Ponga, Mann and Talau won’t find 72 points between them?
Ok.

Probably. Or just run with Crichton and Farnworth and hope for the best. 4 trades left

Base + Power, aka base stats plus TBs and OLs

Still catching up. Do other people use this term? Never heard of it, surprised it has an abbreviation like it's used so frequently

Ok.

Talau needs junk points to get much over 20, Mann will need another 80 minute game to crack 40 at hooker, and Ponga got contained well against Manly, and I wouldn't be surprised if they do it again.

Mann is the one I'm really worried about, as he's much less owned at the top compared to the other two, and he is the lynchpin of my team's rankings (alongside other relative PODs Wighton and Fifita)

It’s mostly a Supercoach thing.
Such a Shelbyville vibe.

It's more used in SC than fantasy, but I play both
