    Started getting into them a couple of years ago, I bought FIFP and R&R but got sidetracked from them when I suddenly discovered 4 or 5 other bands I'd been missing out on.  A couple of them had MASSIVE back catalogues like Antimatter and Katatonia who have nearly 20 albums between then so went down a rabbit hole away from August Burns Red.  You've inspired me to throw FIFP on in the car today Very Happy

    I need to listen to that album more. I got into them when their first album came out. Two faves are Messengers and Constellations, blast them quite a bit again lately.

    Love this "playthrough" of Identity tho. Dudes technique is pretty unique

    Looks like he's double jointed but could be wrong, the way his fingers shape.  Has ups and downsides apparently.  This lead straight into GOJIRA-Amazonia for me.  New album this week  Very Happy

    TPJ was on my radar but picked Moses over him this round simply due to BEs. Thought Eels edge defence would be solid and of course TPJ scores the only try @my tv broke fantastic pick. He will come in for Turpin next round I think. Should make some money with a floor of around 40 when starting. Can't see him coming off the bench in the immediate future, judging by the first 30 odd mins I saw of last night's game

    It's just the lack of consistency. They've put up two really strong performances in Round 1 against the Eels and last week against the Panthers. The other times they've been utter crap and unfortunately that seems to be the rule not the exception with them.

    Ignore his injury history and he’s a no brainer at 500k but I’m tempted to play the contrarian here.

    I’m trying not to introduce any more origin players to my team. Especially as I brought in Haas this week. I do need a better WFB but I’m looking at DEdwards as one of the better R13 options who won’t play origin.

    Figuring I've got more players than most today. I'll enjoy the rank rise while it lasts. Elliott/Avo/Hampton. Could be a 150 combined, or could be a 30...

    Are there 2 four trade rounds or 3? Pending Harvey Norman shenanigans of course.

    Just trying to plan how many I need to bank.

    I was inspired by @rhinoceroo to pick up TPJ.

    High risk high reward to try and chase some points

    So no one has made an argument for buying turbo...

    I can see what Cotric Rip does first then decide if I need to pick him up. Ideally though it would probably be Cotric I sell.

    Any chance Cotric comes good? I’ll take a 38 average.

    Walker, stefano and Sos.

    Pretty sure you’d put them in this order in preference right?

    That’s interesting, I’d almost reverse that order.

    Sos against storm, I look at walker getting shut down and feel like the same will happen.

    Stefano against manly. It’s a coin flip. But can’t see a 40 score.

    Walker against dragons. I have nothing to go on here. Just a bunch.

    I brought in Turbo literally just because I love watching him play. If he makes 100k before R13 I'll be stoked!

    For what it's worth I have played Stefano over Walker + SoS who are both getting l**ped. Will take a 35 from Walker

    You asked if anyone wasn’t buying him, not who was. My time to shine!

    I’m going to loop him with Laurie and try to catch some of the 70s and avoid the 30s. Turbo is notorious for these rocks and diamonds scores so I feel pool hooping him is probably a really good strategy for me as a first time Turbo owner

    my logic is he's capable of a banner obviously but average wise not sure how much of an improvement he'll be over Laurie. Teddy Pap Ponga are the clear frontrunners so arguably not worth the trades getting Turbo in and out
