    Welch score good but i did hope he'd play around 60. I didnt think Bellamy would use King for the huge min role with Welch back.

    Smith might be a trade in for me after their bye. We'll see. I sort of hope he starts slow and Robbo gives him a fair rest. Risky though.

    I have Garner who is an obvious problem it appears.

    He got 58 mins which is thereabouts? (as a 50-60 min guy from 2021). Welch looked good you should be happy with that choice, I imagine he'd have majority ownership if he got a large discount, which ironically works in your favour if he maintains high scoring.

    That's the other thing I suppose, unless Smith scores big he'll be reasonably priced after his bye. If he's looking like 50-55ppg player he's a keeper from that point.

    Really hard to know. My total guess, probably biased.

    Sutton 50
    King 50
    Brown 50

    Pele 20
    Tanner 10
    Waddell 30

    Carty still leading the 'who looked good out there' leader board, followed by Ford.   Few more today...

    Fantasy output for Carty was better than how he looked.

    I made the same decision, as well as going Katoa for Martin. If I want 25 point scores, I’ll take them from a 230 player.

    Coming back to Tohu, I know changing guns around based on 1 week can backfire spectacularly but in this case it wasn't like Tohu scored a try or scored a bunch of points in a way that isn't sustainable. Of course 70 is his upper end so he had a good week but the role + minutes point to him probably being a safe 55 avg.

    I am considering changing Fifita to Butcher to free up some funds for him. I hate not having Butcher as it is. Rolling lockout provides an opportunity here and it could be harder to balance the squad once limited to 2 trades a week and likely fires to put out.

    Not sure if I will do it but just saying, it's not like we're talking about a WFB that scored a brace and had a boom game (which people have often overacted to in the past)

    Was Perham that bad in the trials? Thinking maybe Swapping Thompson out for him.

    Considering the other option to cover fullback was just pulled out of reserve grade, maybe hold that thought for now.

    Ah....thanks boss.

    Or I play Talau instead. One of Talau or Thompson is becoming Trindall.

    a) play Preston in my 17
    b) play I Katoa in my 17
    c) Put someone like BMM at 17 and take Warbrick's 29
    d) Play my final undecided cheapie at 17. Will be Talau if I want centre cover, but I'm thinking of passing and going without centre cover and targeting Bird in the next couple of weeks. Otherwise final guy could be Blore, Stone, Haas if named, AKP, Moale, Pele.

    Obviously if Preston is promoted in two hours, that's my decision. Otherwise leaning towards playing Katoa/waiting for Sunday team lists. Grateful for any thoughts.

    After watching TMM yesterday, I regret swapping Perham to TMM for sure.

    Alright Matt I think I'll jump on Preston. What's the worst that happens? He stays as a bench forward and makes 50k?

    Who are you taking out for Harris? If you're correcting someone like Garner next week I can see why you're tempted.

    For the #21 spot

    TU: Preston
    TD: I. Katoa

    I feel like i'm getting sucked into one of matt's 200 theories a year in the hope this is one of the 10% that pay off
