    I think id rather keep Alamoti. Does Thompson even come back into the team anytime soon?

    Currans average at lock is 55 from 70 minutes.

    Why is trading him in a bad idea?

    If you think he stays at lock long term, then lock him in (pun not intended).

    ITT is my only CTR cover and my only WFB cover, so probably need to look at fixing that.

    Makes me more interested in Manu than I otherwise would be

    “Bayley passed [his HIA], which is good,” Webster said.
    “Jazz will miss some time, he had some Achilles and calf problems. I don’t know yet on Tohu and Charnze has to be stood down because he failed his HIA.

    They seem to think Tohu won’t be too bad

    Scratch that - cheap but misses a lot of games soon
    Anyone keen on Burton?

    With no more Flanagan and makeshift or Rookie HLFs around him surely he will start going big again?

    I can’t imagine JRey is a long term plan, he’s well past his best football but still as good as ever at brain explosions, I think I saw somewhere (might’ve been here) about whispers that Oloapu is the ideal choice but they want to get some troops back on the park before they blood him to give him the best chance of success, their casualty list is pretty spread out though so who knows which troops are the tipping point.

    Lads I need some advice on choosing a mid around the 650-720k price range. There are plenty of solid options including: M King, AFB, Carrigan, Cotter, Tino, Hopgood and Mofo.

    I'm most interested in Carrigan, Cotter and Mofo but not sure which one would be the best pickup.

    This is for my h2h team too btw so byes dont bother me

    "Charlie Staines is expected to be out of action for between 8-12 weeks after suffering a small bowel perforation in the second half of the team’s Round 8 loss to the Sea Eagles."

    Horrific news for the Forbes Ferrari Sad

    This probably means Bula's safe at fullback for now with Laurie playing 5/8 in reserve grade

    Locks Bula in with an eye for the future and that thing about Laurie, yeah

    It is the Tigers, but is as good a cash out as any

    Bula seems like a solid trade-in with that news, but the Panthers are not going to be kind to him this week, if I were to grab him I’d either be playing him or Niko to make up the numbers and I don’t trust either option in my 17.

    I know Ponga misses a lot of games, but he is so cheap. Ponga + De Belin vs Drinky + Curran (Teddy instead? and get 10000 WFBs).

    Surely Warbrick to Ponga for only 50k is a no brainer
