    How's things looking for your team DK?  I see you've been hanging around the top 200 for the last few rounds, fielding 13 this week?

    12 for me this week after using 4 trades. Walsh and Miller stopped me from saving a trade and fielding 13.

    Crazy though, cannot locate balls large enough.

    Got a couple here if you wanna borrow for the weekend

    I think you are right.

    With Starling and Cotric on the bench, the ideal would be Tapine and Horse share the lock and edge positions for 80 minutes each, with the 2 bench MIDs sharing time with Pap and Saulo.

    Is it worth bringing in DylBrown so I don’t have to play both Crossland and Katoa?

    In all seriousness, Finchy is right - Warriors have big wraps on Metcalf for a reason.

    40min back in NSW cup a few weeks back to test him out and he's straight back as a starting half displacing Volkman (happened to score 46 fantasy points in that 40min)

    Passes the test of “players I’m excited to watch” which is a big consideration when your rank is as mediocre as mine. I’m grabbing him this week.

    Anyone else still holding ARey?

    I feel like the success of my round will depend on how he goes.. I'm only one of 1.76% in the top 5k who own him lol - probably for good reason

    If Metcalf plays to his potential, he gets the spot on merit.

    Metcalf is more SJ long term replacement isn't he? Before the comeback player of the year effort from SJ this season

    Pretty sure he is more a running 6 than a game manager, Volkman more a 7.

    Thats what I am trying to remember, I am on Warriors, they have Broncos without their 2 best attacking players and their starting MIDs.
