Oh that's just fucking great. FMFL!!!

What a week.

Vaughan to Taupau
Whitehead to jbrom.

You know your in trouble when the shit burgess is your top frf. And he was sitting on pine. Coupled with captain tolo, croker, mansour, nofo. Was always going to be a battle

I remembered someone mentioning having their best fantasy season when their kid was born. Not true over here. I mean she's great and everything, but she can't put Lolohea's 60 points back into my team...

Yeah super effort there against 14 men.

As a Lions fan myself I had to laugh when someone on the TV today said ..... it just proves that 4 big countries can get together and beat a small country - just - if they are reduced to 14 men We were lucky/wasteful and I expect we'll get soundly thrashed in the final test .... but we start level, and there's always hope.

Yeah, remember you mentioning it. I think they only gave him 1 TB in the live call after that quick tap when pretty sure he had 2 as well.

Yeah, then at some stage they took 4 points off him for no reason.  I think they missed a couple of tackles towards the end too.  Just happy with score as it doesn't feel like a wasted trade.  Solid score considering the smacking they got.  Would have had an amazing score if they kept what they did in the first 10-15 going. But happy my bunnies got the win.

Call me crazy, but looking at bringing in Walker next week. I dodged the bullet when the contract stuff happened but if they are finding some form and he puts in a bit of an effort, at the price he'll be, it's a steal.

Any update for Moylan lads?

Took five points off ARey, fuckers Although I had Scott in NPR's, I'm at least glad Fui and Hoppa didn't really make me regret benching SMat. Fui could be a gun with the minutes!

if my maths haven't failed me, those 17 points in updates take me to 1004 for the week, hopefully sneaks me into the top 250 from 284th, but i'm probably being greedy there.

This years been a pleasant surprise for me so far, i was a mainstay in the top 1000 for most of the Dream Team years, but the switchover to Fantasy hasn't been kind, haven't finished in the top 2000 since, with a best ranking of 548th after a bye round in 2015 before this year. Last year in particular almost broke me, i was treading water all season, it killed my enthusiasm for the game and after the early rounds this year i thought i'd be going the same way again, I'm just hoping i can keep this going now.

Thanks mate I'll take that when he was on 12 after 55 minutes and his side getting pumped

Thanks George for 39pnts in my Nprs, I could have used this kind of score during one of the bye rounds

I have 14 this week, pity Munster is going to play Origin i would have had 15. Looking at cashing out Moga so might end up with another player

933 for me. Not too bad, made up a little more ground.
Didn't do as well as some other people on here tho but pretty happy nonetheless.

Is it going to be too much to ask for a R18, $138K player that will start in FRF, 2RF or WFB?

I'm going to need some cashies to bolster my 9 players this week.
Unfortunately not too much to do without ruining the final 17 or cashing in too early.

This week is going to hurt.

You'll probably get lucky I'm sure. Plenty of injuries and Origin concerns lol
