    Wish I had the luxury of being that definitive 😂 him and croker are going to have a thumb war for the last spot in my 17.

    Not an ideal week for Sitili to have a rest

    Love what adding Starling and Mann does for my bench, next to Schuster and Curran.

    Jesus that's a massive risk going Starling this week. Hodgson probs slots straight back into 9 once he's back and Starling gets his shitty 10 mins at the end of the game. Plus it's not like Starling is going to get out of hand price wise, why not just wait a week or two until Hodgson is back?

    A few left field players that have piqued my attention.

    Hess - 463k, scores of 44, 46 and 52 since moving to the middle in round 6. Getting 50 mins a game. Doesn't play first bye.

    Atoni - 477k, Seems to have slipped under the radar. Last 5 average 45 but scored a 15 vs storm in 24 minutes (injury??) and getting 45 mins a game. Doesn't play first bye. God knows what is going on with the doggies pack, I rarely watch their games in full.

    Bryce Cartwright - 487k, 45 average in 4 games weighed down by an injury affected 2 in round 6. Looks to be getting approx 50 minutes a game. Does play round 13.

    If Hess or Atoni played first bye I may jump on them, especially Hess. Carty is very appealing.

    Thoughts on any of these?

    I looked at Starling, persuaded myself that Hodgson never gets picked again and then brought myself back to reality. Surely too risky

    It really depends on whether Hodgson was dropped or injured.

    We probably won't find out the truth until its too late to make a fantasy decision, but Starling is a hiogh risk high reward play for just $421k

    Think I'll take the punt on Walsh. 

    SOS to Walsh
    Croker to Pangai

    Means I can play Pangai over Simpkin and loop Walker/Walsh.

    Wasn't injury affected, warmed the bench the whole game and came on with 5 mins left fwiw.

    But you really only need to wait a week as Hodgson is pretty much ready to return.

    Need a centre or I'll be playing 16 (again).
    Wait for Momo to return next week, or pick up flash in the pan Cini cheapies?
    Like the look of Walsh, kids got serious talent, but with Teddy, Pappy, Turbo & Laurie I don't n need another WFB.
    Thinking of grabbing Starling for some cash generation.
    The roller-coaster ride of Fantasy Footy continues.

    I've got exactly the same issues! With Hampton and Roberts out for a while, I'm going to have to double trade to bring Peachy in. Here I was thinking about banking a couple of trades this week.

    For what it's worth, the last two seasons I've picked up Starling early and it's been magic both times...I'd consider him again but yeah, maybe wait and see what's happening with Hodgson. I don't think Havili's too much of a threat to his score.

    How have the Raiders' performances and results been the last couple of weeks with Hodgson out?

    Go to do a double trade and make sure the positions match up and then it swaps the ins around so it doesn't work. So weird

    Maybe fantasy is telling me not to max trade

    I've had this happen a few times as well.... frustrating

    Super Mann the super pod at 0.5% ownership and Cini the cashout genie are coming in this week. Gives much needed depth for a few weeks and two round 13 players.

    How could more tigers in my team possibly backfire?!

    Nothing to write home about. You can’t really blame them for
    struggling against Souths when their halfback dropped out 5 minutes before game time (although Hodgson would have been handy in that situation). But they were pretty bad against the Cowboys the week before, without any real excuse.
