    Yeah I was meant to touch on that SI. We haven't actually received it yet. But feel free to resend them.

    Just got a Telegram from the Exchange saying they were sorry for the delay but should be there in the next few days. They had a rider come down with the dreaded Consumption.

    Thoughts on Garner? He made a handy 164k, has a BE of about 28, has he peaked after a try-less round 4 score?

    Not really a question, but I would love some analysis on Bateman vs Ponga as a trade in this week, with particular regard to cash increase/BEs/projected score this week etc.

    Just assume these trades would exist in a vacuum where there's no need to consider other parts of the team/available cash or anything like that.

    TL;DR If you had to pick one to trade in this week, who would it be and why?

    Is it ever to early to start bye planning ? Should I have already started ? What's the balance between making bank with cows, bringing in players who play the first bye even though they score less so that you have coverage for the bye, or always go the highest scorer and let the chips land where they will come the bye ?

    Extra kudos if you drop a "boom biddy bye bye"

    How much is head and how much is heart when it comes to your team's?

    What one change would you make to fantasy that you think would make it a better game?

    Could be anything like a rule change or having MTB run the fantasy platform.

    Mine would be to have 2 spots in the starting 13. One is a dedicated Winger and one is an edge 2nd row (Ideally it's be 4 spots with 2 of each to match a real team but I'd start small). Feel everyone tries to stack their team with as many Locks and Fullbacks as they can and it makes the position a bit stale considering its 6/13 spots on a team. Could also go the supercoach combining CTR and Wings together but trying to be a little original.

    So

    HOK
    FRF, FRF
    Edge, 2RF, 2RF
    HLF, HLF
    CTR CTR
    Wing, WFB, WFB

    Open 8 man bench.

    What change would you like to see (Don't cop out with a functioning app, actual prizes, Ranjesh and Sanji actually counting stats correctly  tongue )

    Burns.

    We keeping or not? Cases for and against. I can do good things including not playing loop de loop with bloody Garrick and Kahu if I was to drop him

    I think opinion here is split between sell and hold, so you'll just have to use your own judgement.

    Personally I ditched him last week, but am open to the possibility of buying him back when he returns
