    Don't go near him. His no playing on a Sunday policy will come into effect soon. I think in the next 8 games 4 are on a Sunday.

    interesting - for some reason i thought that was canned this year hence now considering him - but thanks good to know.

    It's perfect timing to be considering him. There has been so much speculation about whether or not he's doing the Sunday thing this year. I guess you'll know for sure on Tuesday.

    Still did well mate considering your weak links.

    Your rank is also heading in the right direction.

    Cook was an a.e. for Talakai & I had to play Kelly as the other 2 ctrs are red dots. My forwards took up the slack & I'm pretty happy that my rank didn't go backwards so I'll take the small increase & bolster my ctrs this week.

    Good job mate! Sione was robbed during live scoring nice to see a decent update for a change, Cotric and Whitehead also improving is nice! Hopefully Brown and JWH follow suit

    Next week I'm bringing in L. Mitchell & Hurrell & selling Ponga & Kelly. Of course if Coote is out which it doesn't look like he is then I'll just bring in L. Mitchell.

    Foolishly took a couple of punts this week, subbing in Hayne and Suli for Holmes and Cotric, costing me about 75 points this week. Both those players are going straight back to the reserves after this weeks performances.

    Norman ( Sad please please don't be seriously injured), Brailey, Kafusi and Wallace all also put in some pretty sub-par scores. Thank you Burgess and Crichton for keeping my score from truly sucking. 791 for the round, not good.

    White Lightning wrote:All the round 12 ctrs are not really scoring that well although Croker did well scoring 45 & atm the Raiders left edge is going better than Leipana. Also as discussed before now teams are kicking out to nullify Leipana. It reminds me of a tactic a couple of years (I can't remember the team) but to nullify the kick returns opposition teams were just kicking the ball dead in goal. The round 15 bye teams seem to have more in form ctrs. I'm looking at guys like Sione, Hurrell & Peachey. Tonight L. Mitchel went well but he's pretty inconsistent & could score 20 next game. Plus the Roosters had all the ball. I'm actually liking Hurrell. He's scored consecutive 50's & the Titans are intentionally giving him early ball so he can do his thing.

    Wait to see who gets picked for Origin. If Dugan is fit to play maybe Bird misses out? He could play at fullback or even in the halves in the bye rounds for the sharks

    Sooooooo......I have Turbo and Norman and still have Ponga on the bench. If Hunt is back that also fucks me good and proper. Might be playing the likes of Lamb, Frawley and Suli next week.

    This is going to be a real test. I want to wait to see how long both are out for. Walker is the obvious replacement for Norman, unless I want to spend up on SJ. Turbo I have the option of a WFB too, so that helps, but if both by some miracle are out for just a couple of weeks, I'll hold and roll the dice with playing the others. If I hold both, Ponga will have to go.

    What's the cutoff for you guys holding them? Obvioulsy I think 2-4 weeks could be a hold, but something like 4-6 or more is just impossible and will kill you.

    I guess it depends how well you can cover these guys.
    If Turbo is 4-6 i'll prob hold. He was going to miss rounds 12 and 15 anyway. Norman on the other hand would prob be a trade if he is 4-6 weeks

    My disappointments for the week are pretty much the same as most, RTS, Kaufusi, Brailey and Norman.

    If it wasn't for SMat and Cotric today I'd have been in a bit of strife, these guys pulled me through for a 907 pre updates.  

    As a result, I've managed to climb up the rankings by 24 spots to be currently ranked 10th and unbelievably happy to have finally made it inside the top 10.

    Onwards and upwards I say!
