    I thought that could be a possibility.  I'm looking at him or Croker, but leaning towards Croker.  The big plus Hoppa has is the DPP.

    Hadn't thought of Croker. Doesn't play rd18, but the extra 50k would give me more flexibility for next week's trades.

    I wouldn't worry too much about the loophole and whether or not it works. If that is the biggest concern of your bye round squad then you're probably going pretty well, it's not something to base a lot/any of your planning around

    That's a risky ass move that could be gold or bite you in the ass. I wouldn't do it though, Reynolds back in a couple of weeks could mean reduced minutes again for Lichaa.

    Mannering, Kata and Vatuvei all ruled out for Warriors. Chance of Round 12 they say.
    Gives CNK another opportunity to stake a claim to keep his spot.

    I don't mind this with Reynolds being out, Lichaa should go back to ~50. I think Reynolds is due back around R18 so Lichaa will make plenty of $ and points til then.
    One downside is that in the last game the commentators were ripping into Lichaa pretty hard for his lack of attack and poor ball service. Maybe Des saw the same thing and might change it up?

    He's a proven gun and will be gold again once the Raiders turn things around at a great price. Plays 12 but not the other two big bye rounds which does hurt.

    Reynolds due back earlier than that I thought? He was ruled out for 5 weeks.

    I'm waiting for further info at this stage:

    NRL PHYSIO‏ @nrlphysio  May 14
    More
    Brad Arthur indicated early diagnosis is a grade 2 MCL sprain for Corey Norman. Would be 2-4 week recovery

    What if he's only out for two weeks? He would then play rd 13 also which will be just as difficult for me as other rounds. He'll been keen to get back asap and people do return early. I'm not saying he isn't a trade, I'm just going to get rid of Turbo first and play ARey and Frawley for now at see what happens this week.

    Further to this, I think it was Honeysett who traded out Peachey who was supposed to be out four weeks and only ended up missing the one game from memory. I'm gonna just wait a week I think unless some concrete worse news comes out.

    Yea I hear ya. I too have traded Turbo out first, this week for Fuimaona mostly for the cash. But in the back of my mind I am preparing for Norman to be a round 12 trade to ARey or similar.

    No Mannering this week, Vatuvei either.

    I said last week Manu was going to start against the Panthers, turns out he is injured.

    Weird - it worked fine last year but this year doesn't seem to be possible due to not being able to sub out your captain to get the VC score after the first game lockout
    (if there's a different way to do it please tell  Smile )

    I tried it on the PC too not the app (I don't trust the app for anything....dang newfangled technology...bet Skynet is involved somehow)

    Yeah I tried it on PC mid round after you mentioned it and there was no R or S button to sub Captain out.

    @Loomer did you see a screenshot of the guy do it? Strange they managed it last round, they must have had 8 red dots at least?

    Also my C was Cam and he played the Sunday. I tried it Friday night when Neillo mentioned it and couldn't sub him over.

    I see your dad joke and raise you a lamer dad joke. My old old man insists on referring to Mooloolaba as "cow dunny la sheep". Never fails to not get a single laugh - except his.

    Trades this week likely to be
    Tturbo>>Aubusson (??)
    Faufusi>>Graham

    Fancied Croker but not sure about having him and Cotric in my centres together. Hopoate and Morris also strong options

    niko to moses will be tempting as well in the coming weeks. not sure what the plan with guth is but you would think he is ahead of will smith in the halves before moving to centre when norman comes back

    team lists got a lot more interesting. really looking forward to see manlys fullback and tigers 5/8th now
