  • 1416 C Hynes
    Finally nailed one thanks to the sharks half. AFB, Garrick and Angus helped. Love that banner pic of Nicho. Classic!!!

  • Hi All

    Red arrows again this week. 1107. C Cleary. Had it on Hynes all week, changed at 7pm Saturday. This never works for me.

    Need to listen to what I am thinking during the weekend games. Monday after lock out check BE’s and who to trade out, then trade in and leave it. This includes captains.
    Would be a lot better off.
    I know hindsight is wonderful and I am not having a whinge.
    Too much research just confuses me.

    Now can everyone please remind me of this when I start to ‘go off the reservation’. You will know because I will start asking a lot of questions. LOL.

    • We punish ourselves these days all these points I’ve lost in my life because i felt the urge to change it last second

  • One of my opponents captained Riki this week. Surely it’s way too early to give up!

  • In one of my leagues one coach had Munster as his VC and did not loop despite Munster scoring 148. Instead he left the C on Hynes and was duly rewarded with 160 points.

  • Is TerMay to Plath a good option this week? I was hoping to keep May until Rd 13 but how much money will he lose before then? Olam to Gagai is my second consideration. -surely it can’t be worse than getting Olam in the first place. Why didn’t anyone tell me Olam has never been SC relevent and that the Tigers are shit!

    • TerMay is an issue for me as well. I just wish i could figure out Robbos minutes. I can not afford a top 13 player getting these mins without a reason (20, 50, 30, 26 mins last weeks). I need to do something and an upgrade looms.

      Plath good base, plays 3 big bye rounds and a dual is always handy.
      The question I am asking myself this week is do i want to buy stop gap players or keepers in round 9? Is 50 points in 3 bye rounds enough to hold him for 11 weeks for? You know the answer.

      mmmm no comment on Olam 🙂

    • I like the Terrible (Minutes) May to Max (Points) Plath trade.

  • Well i picked a bad week to move a whole house solo. I don’t recommend to anyone silly enough to contemplate it. Anyhow, too busy to look at SC is the moral. I went to put the C on Hynes but my VC from last week SJ had played already leaving Nico on the bench. Just left it on Turbo in the hope it was a sign…..it turns out it was just desperation.

    I am a sharks supporter who had the pre season plan of captaining Nico as much as possible but went Turbo last week.

    I have captained Nico 4 of his 7 games for a average of 59! Now Turbo 3 times for 64 average. Obviously my C choice is killing me this year. Ah got to love SC, what a headf@#k it is.

  • Whacko-the Diddlo! Haven’t checked in for weeks, and lo and behold, what do I see, but a very provocative photo of Nicho & the piercing eyes of ‘Ace Chunderer – Rugby League magician extraorinaire’, Mr Reece (Lost my Lunch) Walsh!
    Amazing stuff – I feel so good to be back to an active site. How are you all?
    Have clawed myself back slowly from 77k spot in Round 2 to 8,763rd place.
    Have decided to trade Schiller>Garrick + Lane>Nikora this week, but can’t stop trading. Gotta have a break soon in the coming weeks!
    See yahs and keep well!
    AJW 🙂
