Imposters trying to give me a bad name
almost as bad as the lady with the Chewbacca mask... makes me sick

Speaking of imposters, apparently there's a movement growing some legs to try and get Barnaby Joyce voted as NZer of the year

i think those lists are fairly pointless but will always generate discussion which is kind of the point in posting them.

anyways, seemingly good news for crichton:

Martin Gabor‏ @MartinJGabor now6 seconds ago
Angus Crichton told me he expects to start this week so all #NRLFantasy coaches who didn't panic trade him (me) can relax

That's good news for the Warriors - Crichton's shit defence to concede another handful of tries while not being good enough to even lay a hand on them

Crichton is the best player in the game already. By miles.

Surgess to play prop. :/

Still can't see who Kearney has "walked out the gate".

Might leave him in my NPRs this week and recall Crichton. Apparently Munster will be named to start this week. Not sure who I leave in my NPRs between Munster, RTS and Edwards...

may not be so bad, of late he has been spending alot of time on the edge meaning lower tackle counts.

you gotta wonder, at this stage of the season, why there isn't any fresh blood in the lineup.

that said, I get that there just may not be anyone in lower grades throwing their hat in the ring. Surely there are some other guys there that will give it a real crack.

Munster named at 6, probably just to fuck with us.

Surgess Prop. Crichton starting.

Munster back

Au Mau back starting

Gordon back, Watson back to the bench.

Ponga on the wing.

BJ named.

PWallace out with broken hand. Merrin in the reserves.

Brian Kelly back.

Cameron Murray looking like great value for anyone that needs a bit of a downgrade.

im considering not starting taupau this week. the manly second row all played 80 last week (lane,winter,turbo) and with perret, lussick, fonua blake in the 17, it could mean fewer minutes for taupau..

not sure what barrets plan is but i reckon he might play things by ear and look at form/impact in the middle. what you guys reckon?

Kearney should axe himself.

Could be time for me relying on Watto to end, Pearce or Cleary ?

Tyrone May playing? Please say yes. Id rather play him than that fat Jbrom
