What?? Surely not. Where did you hear this?

Scouter wrote:Like every spud on here i just can't catch a break. Will be holding DCE, but may have to trade Cartwright if he is looking at 6+ weeks. On the plus side i will be getting Sugress, Taupau & Leilua back.

This week will be going Evans>JDB

Not worried that when DCE comes back we will have to give him a further 2-3-4 weeks to get back on track ?

I can play Gutherson, and make it my Smith + Woods vs his Rocho + 53 points.
Or I can switch Gutherson to PatMat and also make it PatMat vs Gutherson added to that.
Gunna be up all night.

Play it safe, cancel out his Gutherson so it is 1 less point differential to worry about. Mata'utai is averaging more, but there is a possibility he doesn't score as well.

Good to see someone take up henchs mantle. Wackos mail gets worse every year

Dont get me wrong, im all for more late mail, and im sure (maybe) he has had a scoop before that nobody else had. But I always see comments like "Wacko said....." and then its generally wrong 99% of the time. Not everybody though has to take what he says, or anybody for that mater as 100% truth though, you make your own choices if you want to believe somebody.

What a shot stain of a year so far, team is in absolute disarray and don't know a way forward. Things look great at the start of each week and by the end your just blowing trades trying to fix it.

The winner of the comp this year will be lucky not smart

A gun is a gun. I'll be trying to hold, there's so much hate for him now but by the time origin finishes you'll want him.

Manu, of the Beast variety. Heard it on radio here in NZ.

Does seem strange to play him off the bench, maybe he has taken Hurrells spot and maybe Manu will be playing 2nd Row??

I think the same. It looks like your in front anyway so the less pods in your team the better.

Had no intention of selling but 4 weeks is a trade. There's potential keepers that will be out of reach in 4 weeks if I don't use the DCE money to get them now

Oh phew I thought you meant Manu Ma'u.

I don't understand why you would muck around with your winger like that especially when Assford is still in the team.

Yeah i have DCE from seasons start, have held and planned to keep for the season until this latest injury. With so much cash in him and the injury/confidence period taking up further time, i am thinking now to dump him on the roadside and dont look back. Say Mbye-bye so to speak

I was thinking of either bringing in Norman for the cash or Hunt and having no spare cash though

They'll be both. You could give a leprechaun a bj and luck still wouldn't get you home in this comp.

If it ends up being longer I'll go straight to Norman.

Ryan James put me through this shit last year, now I've got Carter and Cartwright. I'll be in a Psychiatric hospital soon

You'll be with friends mate

Corey norman ? I dont want him in there... Mbye or SJ for me. Hunt would be ok to.

Seperately, anyone thinking of bringing in SKD, to me he genuinely looks totally different this year on the field. He looks like he will have a monster season.

Good bye round schedule too. I'll either bring him in or Aitken as a CTR option.

i too was looking at SKD, but because he is a back I dont really want to be making trades. His low round score is 8/18 whatever it is, so he can still score low.

Have we ever gone past 50 pages? No mods around, we can do this boys!

Meaningless post for the 50+ pages train

Will lock and create a new thread now lads
