I don't know what Doordash even is but are these vouchers for like 50 bucks or something and how do you qualify?  You seem to get them every week or talk about them each week.

I understand that there is a fair bit to gain by guessing the ‘right’ way each week but… I think that @ynot, among others, has done some pretty informative work on this in previous seasons, and shown that matchups don’t necessarily matter that much, with the possible exception of outside backs (and even then not significantly).

In saying that, trying to pick the winner each week does introduce some extra tension and excitement into the game so each to their own

Initial trade thoughts are Lolo (if out a while) and Trbo out for Tohu and Keary. Would mean missing out on Kiraz, who does look good for cash but meh Bulldogs outside backs, wouldn't be playing him.

Hahaha yep, tbf I’m very much happy to risk and back myself to attempt to pick “correctly” each week

Not seen that working and am very much in the newbie/amateur category so my musings are pure speculation

Either way Hynes smashes 79 tomorrow you heard it head first!!!

Generally when I post something like this the exact opposite happens so Hynes is guaranteed for 150

ForanAgainst wrote:Definitely dropping rank this week, just how much is the real question. 617/12c McInnis, Ilias, Hynes, Starling, and Elliott.

Also, haven’t looked at my two DD vouchers I’ve accumulated this year. I’m assuming you can only use one per order and not both?

3. Ilias 4. B.Jones 5. Walters 6 Tuilagi

Since jones didn't play will I get walters score or Tuilagi's since theyre both an edge?

Walters. You’d get Tuiligi if you had Jones starting.

Yep, many tough years, but you don't give up on them, ensures the winning feeling is even better when it happens.

Probably my biggest emotional rollercoaster was 2012 semi against the Roosters. Was absolutely dejected being down 30 nil after 30 minutes, but we clawed back to 30-12 before half time. Then levelled to 30 all before winning the game, at the last minute, before the video ref took it off us. I sat motionless staring at the tv in the dark for like two hours. Going from having no chance, to some chance, to winning, to being out until next year was the worst.

I'll save my dummy spit for those types of games.


Edit: This was 2014, wasn't it?
