Is Rein still an urgent buy with Mahoney playing 80 mins

I'd just like to say that I don't think Mahoney's minutes impact Rein's value at all. Rein is certainly a value proposition.

Entirely possible to run with both players too

I had a look at his scores last year playing f/b & they aren't that flash.

Showers predicted for the gold coast on Friday.

I can adapt my commentary based on the subject matter.

Sometimes you can summarise entire documents with just a few well considered concise words.

You're on fire today

I mean, yes should be a good pick up but isn’t the fact he has played four games for four injuries/HIA’s quite worrying?

And been involved in 2 separate incidents already this season. Seems to lack maturity, could be the next Suli.

Yeah, not going off that, was NZs best player in internationals at fullback last season. He looked like RTS, running great lines.

Despite heated denials over the past two weeks, former Test forward Trent Merrin is set to quit English club Leeds and return to the NRL.
Merrin will come back home as a result of ‘personal reasons’ just months into a rich four-year deal with the Rhinos.
Merrin does not have an Aussie club at this stage but is most likely to end up at the Dragons to replace suspended forward Jack de Belin.

What a pussy. You signed a contract now honour it. If you didn't want to play why did you sign in the first place.

Do clubs have a clause in their contracts that fines players for not playing out their contract. If not maybe they should have a substantial fine so then players would think twice about reneging on the deal.

Who's with me ?

If you did, I would jump in and post gifs and enjoy myself and let's be honest no one wants that.

That was page 51 to page 55 of the rebellion which broke the thread barrier into another dimension.
The mods failed to do their duty.

Oh no that was thread 28

Thread 29 is where @SI rudely interrupted the party

A couple of sets of highlights of games with DWZ at fullback setting up and scoring tries (and getting robbed by the bunker)

OK here's your capless/tradeless top team so far:

Farah (c)
Fifita, Klemmer
Murray, Surgess, JTurbo
DCE, Reynolds
Bateman, Nikora
RTS, Tedesco, Ferguson

McInnes, Cook, Smith, Tamou

18-21: JFH, Taupau, Vaughan, Finucane

Not many surprises there to be honest, main takeaways:

*Murray now the highest scoring 2RF and has risen $112k
*I'm calling it: Rule #1 officially over. Cam Smith is the 4th highest scoring hooker and the 11th highest overall.
*Tamou, the 3rd highest scoring FRF has scored one point less than Smith and risen $129k.
*Nikora has now risen over $300k in the space of four rounds.

I don't think I can deny spending my bank on doing Burns/Ponga this week. Ponga makes it so I don't have to rely on Rava/Sivo each week and also provides halves cover along with adding a keeper to the team. I still have Brown so I have to think about what I have to do there, Brown/Okunbor only gives me 20 grand whereas going to a Xerri gives me nearly a 100 grand, which is very tempting.

Biggest Losers so far

Guerra: -167
Crichton: - 160
Sutton: -150
RJames: -149
Hess: -139
Ponga: -134
Alvaro: -126
LMitchell: -114
Lichaa: -125

Is that an added punishment for salary cap breach?

Thoughts on my trade options?

A: Lane to Okunbor, DBrown to Ponga - Would give me another keeper in WFB and extra halves cover.

B: Lane to Okunbor, DBrown to Klemmer - Would have to keep playing WFB roulette but would make me not have to play Lawrie every week.

C: Lane to Rein, DBrown to Meaney - Rein seems like a worthwhile buy and Meaney looks the goods

D: Garrick to Okunbor, DBrown to Meaney - Garrick seems to have peaked, would mean I'd have to back Lane another week which I don't like.

E: Hold trades - Already used max trades so far and need to save a few

My team:

$108K ITB

Cook
Fifita, Lawrie
Arrow, Murray, Garner
Morgan, Munster
Nikora, Bateman
Tedesco, CNK, Garrick

Mahoney, Lane, Sivo, Xerri

Flegler, Ravalawa, DBrown, AK

Alvaro is a surprise with Brown out, should be getting good minutes and scores.
Missing Fitzgibbon who has lost $125k. With Ponga back at fullback again could be a tempting buy.
Cant be long before they drop Sione "Missed Tackle" Matuatia and get Guerra back too.
