a big match against blewy next week, after 2 relatively poor games im looking for another big one to climb back up the overall rankings, im still in a respectable 30 something, so its not all bad news...

Sing played tonight, no tries but he had a blinder...

I must say i was starting to feel pretty worried earlier, but came on to see el masri's 22 point haul +2 for playing in a winning team. It really gives me a better chance of winning cause i had 6 players in the sharks and melbourne game and only 1 managed a try and they claimed just 10 points between them. If Tigers get held to a low score by Dragons id expect to beat blewy...

since everyone dropped him and i got him on the cheap hes scored 8 points in 2 games... 1 try and 2 wins, if every played averaged 4 points a game id be pretty happy...

Well I stuck with him outta sheer bloody-mindedness. Plus If I sold him now I'd be losing about $80k on the deal. To think it was a toss up between him & Berrigan as to who I went for..... 8-)

LOL, ive been thinking for a few weeks that i should get berrigan in, but i dont want to have too many origin players in my squad, so ive only got a few likely ones in King, Slater, Rooney, Hill and Priddis. they can ll be covered with 1 or 2 changes here and there...

I would have been stuffed without Hannay's and Bowen's efforts last night. So far my only point scoreres (excluding players in winning sides).

It hurt me on Friday with my 3 Manly players not scoring and Lockyer and Thorn going so close, also the 'NO TRY' to Stevens last night didn't help either.

I think I have about 34 points with about 5 players still to play.

ive finished with 58 this weekend, blewy can get to 44, but i suspect he will finish with something closer to 32...

30 points for me. My worst effort yet.

Gallingly I've got Fulton in my squad & he picked up a brace, but he didn't make my 17 'cos I thought St George would wallop Wests (which they did). :dry:

2 points! Gutted! I've got Watsons Eagles next week too, so think my season may already have peaked! :p

With Rohan Riders defeating the week 7 leaders Broncoman's PSV again ascend to the summit. In the big basement battle Somerset defeats Marc, whose AA knows nothing! are now shaping up to be CW's very own Newcastle Knights!

All hail King Simon! :notworthy :tongue:

Seriously tho, with only 5 scores above 40 in the league I wonder how many of those 5 had El Masri?
