So, Pthing to Burns this week - or hold off and bring in Abbey next week?

Always the chance B-moz plays fullback and Tyrone Phillips comes onto the wing. Abbey no sure thing

The NRL said today it has terminated the registration of Wests Tigers player Tim Simona.
CEO Todd Greenberg said an Integrity Unit investigation found that Simona had:
- Breached the NRL rules by betting on Rugby League matches
- Bet on opposition players scoring – and against his team winning
- Sold Rugby League jerseys through online auctions without passing on the full proceeds to the nominated charities
- Been untruthful in his interviews with the Integrity Unit

Michael Gordon and Latrell Mitchell came back to earth.
Keary probably becomes a 35-40 point player this year.
Tupou and Brenko Lee going well but never an option for me.
Mitchell Pearce will drop around $25K this week.
I can wait on J Graham until closer to byes as should lose cash.
Jake Friend not getting the attacking stats nor minutes to be an option at this stage.
JWH bounced back but I'd be very surprised if he averages more than 40 this year, still misses too many tackles but Bulldogs were pretty average.
Hope everyone trades Aubo in this week. But seriously not a bad option in the centres, until he goes to centre midgame (or is Matterson the new Aubo).
Matterson is the new Maubbs, hopefully.

That's a tough call between Elgey & Jacks. I'd probably go Elgey.
I've gone Elgey based on the fact he surely can't be any lamer this week?

With Holland out too they need 2 outside backs to come in.
But lets say Bmox to fullback.
Question become Burns this week or Abbey/montoya/other next week.
I am not super convinced on Burns's job security (not that Abbey might be around for more than a month or so even if he does start)

Lol, I had that same theory with Maloney, Sezer and Hodkinson from last year, and then look at their performances last week. My poor mate even picked Sezer based on that factSI wrote:

Burns Rennings over Abbey based on lower grade form. I don't how good the relative teams they played for are but Burns 22 tries in 22 vs Abbey 8 in 22
Latest rumoured team is Burns and Rennings both centre and Talakai to forward interchange

Pick two out of Brailey, Felise Kaufusi, and Musgrove ?
Kaufusi - isn't a big worker, but should play 80. Was slow of scoring to start last week.
Musgrove - may only get 40 mins, could score between 30 and 45 in that time. If extra mins come his way then I'd be more confident.
Brailey - if he gets 80 then he needs the R, but thats still an unknown.
I have Sironen as well but I'm locking him in, I think he'll be solid 40.

Which is the bigger fantasy crime?
Chasing last week's scores? Or playing crap players because they are "due a big game"?

Interesting point re: Matterson (not that it will probably matter....son)
In fantasy, ihs position is as a half.
He can only add one more position when he becomes a DPP.
I think that position will be second-row over centre.

Brailey and Musgrove.
I'm expecting lower scores from Kaufusi due to the weather - higher chance of errors, slower game, lots of driving/tackling through the middle and not necessarily on the edges.

Last week my Rs were Brailey Faufusi Sironen Lamb. The one I'm most afraid of playing this week is Sironen. With all the props out I can see him having a lot more tackles to miss

Most of my players are crap so I don't really have an option
