These are the usual roles for Mannering and Matterson. Manning normally spends about 60% of his time on the field defending at lock and on attack he is out wide. Matterson starts the game defending outwide then floats into the middle to rest the big boys. Also plays a link man role in attack so that is where most of his running is done.

Thanks mate.

Was Brown limited for any reason this last round? Wondering if he should still be considered up there as a top 5 2RF when fit?

Pretty good round, scored 958 & up to 21st. Because I brought Cotric & sold Su'a I now have a ctr selection problem so which 2 would you play at ctr between:
Cotric v Sharks away - Latrell v Manly away - Aitken v Cowboys away

Cheers.

I'd probably play Cotric every week. Then switch it up for the last spot. Probably Latrell this week.

Also, while I have no stats to back this up, Im a big fan of playing attacking players in dry weather day games. Haven't looked at the schedule for this week though.

Cheers mate. I was on this train of thought just needed some learned gentlemen such as yourself to confirm.

Who are your WFBs, always a chance Cotric or Mitchell can move down there.

Also keep an eye on if its possible to setup a loop around them if you have a convenient red dot (and looping is down your alley)

Cotric away to Sharks is who I'd be tempted to leave out this week if forced to make a choice.

Going to be hard to carry Hiku now that he is on the wing. Would need to find a whole heap of cash to upgrade to anyone decent so may just sit tight and reassess

Is Fifita now a sell? Fifita to Taupau allows me to go Sua to Kikau and makes my team look so good. 5 trades left and got my 17 SET!!!! just waiting on some price rises from the likes of AJB, Fainu to get my 18th man. Would love to see crofty get the 7, would be a good half back up or even swap for SJ if he doesnt pull his finger out this week.

Looking at either kikau or Josh Papalii in for sua this week.

Shit I didn't even know Rabbit was banned in the first place. I certainly don't want him banned again. I'm a bit biased because I've known him for a long time re fantasy & when I first started out in fantasy he was really helpful re my team & he's actually a great guy. I mean if you're going to ban him for his comments because you find them offensive then some other people should be banned for their replies to his comments because they were offensive as well. What I'm trying to say I respect everyone on this forum whether I agree with them or not.

20 Holland
21 Mann

As Random said on last page, I'm assuming that Holland subbed in for Tedesco, meaning Mann couldn't be used for Mitchell.

Unless the app is reporting incorrect figures to me.. though I went through and added up all 18 rounds for the season and the total is short 15 (Manns score).

I'm not hugely fussed about it, unless I lose the cash comp by less than 15 points

Thats shit though. Both players were from the same game, you would think it would be able to differentiate and see each could be used for a certain position.

Croker injury and teddy withdrawal on top of caring ponga really fucked me. Was carrying hiku as cover, but had to play him for ponga.

Anywho, it’s reslly fucked me. Didn’t even take me out for dinner first.

Now I need to trade croker out, I feel going Hoppa is just chasing last weeks score. But he has gone well more recently. Other options are Mitchel or turbo.

SJ Fifita and aitken are lucky I’ve got bugger all trades left.

Thinking JFH to Surgess or Kikau. Can't split them though.

With only 3 trades there's not a lot I can do unless big injuries hit.

So will just sit tight and see what the week holds.

I absolutely agree with you there, but I reckon you and I could/should have copped a ban for our swearing fight a little while back.

Rabs just posted a couple of pages back, and there wasn't disagreement, just abuse. You and I have made sure we've been constructive and civil since our disagreement, because (I reckon) that's the sort of forum we want to be a part of.

Cheers mate. My ctr's & wfb's so I have to pick 5 to start - Aitken, Mitchell, Cotric, Tedesco, Turbo, RTS (I also have Holland but irrelevant). Tedesco, Turbo & RTS are certainties & Cotric at f/b probably has to play all the time so to me it's Mitchell v Aitken. Mitchell with a rest & goal kicking seems to have the edge.

I've gone Croker to Mitchell. Decent base stats with goal kicking and I expect Roosters to come home with a wet sail.

Yeah I glad we sorted out our disagreement straight away & you're right our language at the time could of seen us both banned. I know people will disagree with me but I don't want Rabbit banned because I'm loyal to my friends & I owe him a lot re fantasy.

When Ponga returns i will have to kick someone out the WFBs

RTS and Teddy surely stay which leaves CWalker on the outer

That sucks
