    All this talk of Centres not being cool are straight wrong. Gotta risk it to get the biscuit.

    Got three centres this week.

    Many pages to catch up here.

    Cook to CS9 gives me the little bit of cash to also go JFH to Surgess.
    Have McInnes so he and CS9 will help my round 17 score a lot.

    Have a few cows that are making good coin so after SOO I'm confident I can get Cook back into the team.

    White Lightning wrote:Any Turbo owners like myself think he's carrying some type of injury because he hasn't seemed to be as heavily involved in the last couple of games as he usually is. Also I've noticed he's a bit of a whinger when things don't go his way & that last sin bin was due to his whinging. He's actually been sinbinned twice but the cost is probably 20-25 points because you have the -10 points for 2 sinbins & the lost points while he's off the field. If I was to sell any of my origin players it would be Turbo because he pissed me off with the last sinbinning & I would buy Taupau.

    Edit - I mean Jake not Tom.

    Manly should just give him back the captaincy so he can whinge and get away with it. Daly is a hopeless captain.
    I'm not concerned. Annoyed, but not concerned.

    Looks good to me mate and if TPJ holds that wide spot will be top 2 option for FR in a top 17 for peanuts currently.

    I would look at getting in a an extra R13 player or 2 mind, because I can only see 10 players for R17 with that side and that's assuming TPJ and Su'a keep their current roles until then which is unlikely so scores will take a hit from their current outputs so could potentially be a low scoring round as well

    I think you at least need to attack 1 bye round to gain some decent rank, and its R13 for me because there's more keepers playing for me than R17 and I can get my R17 keepers in over the next few weels

    Was looking on youtube for some footage of some players and came across this interesting video of a young Brandon Smith

    Best to cash out to 212k players or will Doughy and TMM suffice?

    None extra I fancy unless TPJ holds his 80 minute edge role

    Which hammers home my point about attacking this bye more because I already have my top 17 R13 players (minus Crichton who I'll probably bypass now for Surgess) or players in origin. 

    Guys I want after R18 are the Turbos, Macca, maybe Hess and Cleary

    I need to cash in one of isaako or Hiku this week to fund my upgrades, the other becomes backup Centre for the run home. Help me decide!

    If Darius hammy gives out isaako goes to fb but that's a big If.

    Hiku averages higher in base stats so would be more reliable as a ring in.
