    I'd finally gotten over the pre-emptive regret of going Kodi to SJ instead of Munster or DCE this week.. now this Cam news is fucking with me. Prick didn't even do anything last night and now wants a week off?

    At least the Milf news somewhat lessens the urgency of trading Kodi.. Can either reverse it and go Brailey to McInn so I don't get stuck with Malakai, Hayne or Leota's AE.. or keep the SJ trade locked in and dump Smith for McInn with my 2nd trade..

    If Smith misses this week, then at best he plays 3 of the next 7.. For H2H purposes, it's 3/5 though..

    If Smith is out I'm screwed as my other hooker is Brailey. Hmmm....im temped to trade Smith to McInnes and then i would have 2 starting hookers for 15. Or just upgrade Brailey now and run with twin cam.

    Hopefully it's Bellamy playing tricks. Smith has played harder games and backed up surely. Must be his ego that's sore, not his body.

    Looks like Brown is staying put in my team. Sometimes you just gotta take the price drops i guess. If he can stay fit, the value loss won't matter.

    Why is everyone so keen on keeping Hayne around?

    For me it's just due to how bad I find the centre position

    I think Hayne is an OK 18th man and because I will be finishing with Turbo/Aubbs/Hayne in my centres it allows me to play Hayne first 17 occasionally - such as when Tommy is injured or Aubbs is named at centre

    Im doing Cwalker to Nofo. Two byes to go, looks a little wobbly and after the bye bunnies have Broncos so not a perfect matchup for him, after which they only have one more game until the next bye. Its sort of stretching to suit my idea, but doesnt look like perfect few weeks coming up to justify keeping him.

    Im starting to consider Cwalker out also.

    Tossing up between teddy and Rapana or Cleary. Already have munster, SJ and Nofo.

    Teddy, will miss three games. Rapana 2, Cleary 1.

    Yeah it is slightly luxurious, but that's how I've rolled this year, the early gut feel has got me through. If not Nofo, i was going Cleary as u mentioned. I thnk Frawley will become Cleary for me, when it slots in soon.

    I cant really justify going Clearly and the other trades muck up my balance a bit. Clearly has been solid without being spectacular this year.

    As previously mentioned, im seriousl considering sticking my head in the sand the next two weeks. Hold off on the trades. My team isn't shit hot, but it ticks the scores over. Might wait till obvious trades come along.

    I'm still trading Brown out, Vaughan comes in. Just feels like a much safer bet. And like Revraiser said, get Nofo in. Tedesco can wait a week I think having a 64 be, and Munster can replace Niko next week.

    Assuming he has regained full fitness, if you hold him until rd19 he'll make back any cash dropped anyway

    graham + brown owners should be wary of round 19 when they both have byes so keep that in mind for upcoming trades.

    On nrl fantasy lounge a poster said that Brandon Smith would debut this week. The source = his father is a member of the Warriors fan page & said his son would be debuting to give Smith some recovery time post origin. With the latest tweet from wacko it seems this will happen. On the team lists Griffin is there at no. 19 so if Smith2 debuts will the Storm still run with the current 4 forward bench or drop 1 of them to accomodate Griffin. So the back row & reserves are:
    11. F. Kaufusi 12. Harris 13. Finucane 14. McLean 15. Stimson 16. K-Brom 17. NAS
    I'm not sure if any of those guys can play hooker to spel Smith2 so maybe Griffin comes in for Stimson & Brandon Smith & Griffin share hooking duties. If they run with 1 hooker on the bench this could mean F. Kaufusi plays 80 minutes in this game.
