i got 74 points, hat tricks to Michael Monaghan and Luke MacDougall helped, would have had a bigger score if Covell kicked better...

Wow! Thought I had no chance of winning, looking at the scores for Round 2, but I ended up with a win and now sit 2nd on the table and the best differential of any side. I've made a few changes this week, got rid of the consistent dud in Peachey...what was I thinking? (Selecting him in the first place).

Mass changes for the side next week after an abysmal performance. All Knights are now axed and I've gone on a storm buying spree. I knew at the start of the year they're be the team to beat and i shoulda had faith in my judgement. Matt Utai also had to be dropped to make way for Matt Orford, but geyer moves to the starting line up now which is good. Orford will lead me to a title.

Bah, only 45 points to me. Leaving me an impressive 13/14. Think I'll stick to Union!

I hadn't realised Minichiello didn't play for The Roosters. He was my captain too & listed in the starting line up before the game; anyone one know what's happened to him?

Not that it would've mattered an ar$e, as Broncoman's PSV ran up 74 anyway....

Six points?!! :huh: Surely that's a typo...otherwise I have some serious work to make a number of changes quickly.

How can you make all those changes with only 2 per round?

The Dragons & The Knights could be wooden spoon contenders this season.

The signs were good last Saturday from the Warriors, but they will need to start putting 2 or 3 wins back to back I feel before they will feel hopeful about the rest of the season. They've got a tricky tie against the Cowboys at home this week..a good test for them.

Cowboys will win.

The Warriors will lose a lot with Wiki out.

A win's a win :D

delighted to be 2 from 2 with Marc to play next week.

I wanted Slater but couldn't afford him. So I've gone for Stewart to replace Peachey. Watmough will replace Tate, as I doubt the broncs will put too many over the roosters. My dogs should hold me in good stead thoguh, with a likely thrashing of the Tigers.

I've gone for Jason Smith from the Raiders and Tim Smith from the Eels to paly in the halves this week. Both have been my reserve 5/8 and half back respectively for the past 2 rounds and firman and thurston haven't put enough points on for my liking. Stringer in for Stevens who I just realised had been in my starting team since round 1 :blink:

I reckon the Warriors will win..I think its a good sign that Jones is running at the line again.
Wiki is a big loss, but I think they can overcome that at least at home anyway.

im also coming 908th overall out of over 10,000 sides...

yeh, i was coming 98th out of 10,000 odd before this round, if Dogs can smash tigers i should maintain a high position.

ive got 22 points this weekend with 7 backline players including my captain and my gk still to play, so im confident of anoher good showing..

Bah, I'm constantly making the wrong move. I dumped Lockyer as me GK after last week's debacle in favour of Fitzgibbon &, of course, Lockyer kicks 4 & Fitz 3... 8-)

Dumped Bott in favour of Thorn too &, obviously, the little fella runs in a try.... 8-)

Need a big game from Willie Tonga tomorrow.

why would u drop bott for thorn?
sure thorn had him 1 up on tries, but over the course of the season Bott will run in 13+ tries, Thorn will get 2 or 3...

Lockyer kicked 4/9 or something like that, theres no way id trust him with the duties in my team...

Yeah, but he got a lot more chances than the big fella yesterday! Think I'll stick with Fitz tho, better kicker & The Roosters won't be that bad every week.

Think I'll bring Bott back next week; Manly have got the bye so I'll dump Menzies for Thorn (who's on me bench) & bring Bott onto it.

Luke Rooney: dump or not? 3 games, no tries & he cost over $200k. Disappointed as he looked the mutt's nuts in the tri-nations.
