    Jeepers, love the banner, but odds on that being a banner before the season started? Crazy stuff!!

    I think I will trade Hodgson to Erin Clark and Feeney to Pearce with 7 trades left and 47k and also reserve Munster, Stimson, Scott and MWZ. Does the trades sound ok?

    Sounds good to me mate, I could've put Pearce in last week but the lockout beat me lol

    So your 4 reserves will be Brown, Surgess, Crichton and Pearce?
    Nice team!! :-)

    Haha, I know the feeling. My team is decent but underperforms every week. This week I had 12 players and get my highest score so far this year of 895. Moved up 3000 ranks from 4800ish to 1747. Sure, why not? It really makes no sense.

    The scorers needed to make up some ground during bye rounds, using bye friendly scrubs. Hopefully they're out of trades now.

    I reckon at certain periods mid range players were outscoring guns. Guys like CHN, Ponga, F. Kaufusi, Elliot just to name 4 were cheap & putting up good scores & certain guns just weren't performing.

    Rabbit wrote:"Planning to have exactly 17....." lol. With about 10 fringe cash cows hanging around that could be named any week. Righto. I hate the loophole. I have other things to do on weekends. I was fishing in Caloundra on Friday afternoon/night when Surgess got scratched. I could have vc'd Crichton too.

    My preference is the loophole gets canned altogether. I don't see why bad bye planners should get a double dip. That's my opinion and nothing will change it.

    The game's 80% luck anyway. Injuries, HIA, suspensions, late pull outs. Don't go wrapping yourselves in hindsight too much, lucky guys. The loophole is a farce.

    Whilst I don't agree with you, I respect your opinion and I like the fact that you are saying you don't like the loophole vs saying those who use it are cheats.

    10 trades, 222k ITB.

    Brailey is worrying me but it's not ideal timing to bring back in Smith. I'd need to cash in someone to get there also.

    At this stage - Brailey > Smith : Yates > Nuff

    Leaving $150k in the back and 8 trades.

    Thoughts??

    Sounds like a plan mate! Solid team

    The biggest take away of this should be, effective bye planning doesn't mean having 17 players, it means fielding a team of as many quality players as you can.

    It was for dangerous contact to the head / neck on Kenny Edwards.  Was more awkward positioning than dangerous I thought and Kenny Edwards milked the fuck out of it and as soon as the penalty was blown he made an instant and remarkable recovery, jumped to his feet and took the quick tap.  The referee though rightly called him back stating that he blew time off because he was concerned for his welfare.  Not a fan of the way Kenny 'the cramp' Edwards plays - way too much Greg Bird in him.

    Yep Kenny Edwards is quickly advancing up my shit list of least favourite players. Thought it was hilarious when that happened and the ref was like "Can't be a quick one because I called time off because you appeared injured dickhead!"

    I dont think so mate. I watched most of that game. He took 1 hit up in the 18 minutes he was on and alsmot scored, but for the rest of that time he (and the rest of the bunnies) were just tackling cause the Titans were completely dominant. As far as I know he went off for a regulation sub and just never came back on. Clark, Cherrington and Musgrove in particular were really good off the bench and it seemed like Gurgess just didnt come back on by coaches choice. I havent heard anything different yet anyway!

    Really? and did he fail it? I listened to the 2nd half on the radio and the commentators seemed surprised he didnt come back on...
