Sport is sport. I follow NRL (raiders unfortunately) but I supercoach AFL because that's what everyone at work follows so we get pretty competitive. If you don't like it you can always not read it.

Monk3y I wouldn't be too disappointed with following the Raiders at the moment. How good are BJ and Rapana going!!?

@an3vilmonk3y · 17/05/2016 at 14:01
It's a lot less unfortunate this year than previous (Hodgson is also brilliant), but we can still throw a game away better than most.

Gday there Monkey – did I read over on the old Twitter that you had your first CoachKIngs hitout on the weekend? How did you go son?

nathan · 17/05/2016 at 13:54

Parker is a sell IMO – I will be shifting him on for Frizell/cooper pending origin selection.

thinking about bringing Gordon in as well.

Thurston – just shift him to your bench. the guy is superhuman. I already have Milf and Mbye, but if you don't have Milf and want him – it needs to be someone else other than Thurston that goes.

Same with Smith, he needs to be just shifted to the bench.

Will Mathews is a pick up.

Manu, Fensom, Croker, Rad Graham are all in my team and should be at the top of everyone's bye pick list

Coach_Cowboy · 17/05/2016 at 14:21
Spot on Nathan! All perfect advice for the NRL community.

Casper. · 17/05/2016 at 15:18
Will Mathews is not supercoach relevant regardless of an increase in minutes. Never has been (he is rubbish in NRL also). If you have brought parker in this year, same as Thurston, you hold him. Trading him out, you will only end up him bringing him back in later.

Nathan · 17/05/2016 at 16:33
64 points last week makes him extremely relevant Casper. He will be just fine, at a rookie price and great Bye coverage.
Parker is a SELL until round 20 and see how things are going, if your that strapped for trades, then I think you are in trouble

Casper. · 17/05/2016 at 18:42
Hey Nath! Mate, the bloke hasn't averaged more than 39 per game in 5 seasons buddy, how is he relevant?! Im not going to talk you out of it but he averages 21 against souths. He may jag the rare attacking stat now and then but he is what old mate Jock politely calls "a [email protected]", hence is benched yet again. I brought in cooper last week, I suggest you find the extra $$ to bring him in and keep him in till de belin returns 🙂 Cheers.

Nathan · 17/05/2016 at 19:43
I had him playing last week for 64- that just back fired- lol- I'm sitting pretty ranked top 200, back to the drawing board… Finished 61st last year and looking nice to improve on that

Casper. · 17/05/2016 at 20:29
That's an awesome rank Nath, good luck on the run home! Tough bye round this upcoming one with not too many players playing that you want in your team after the byes are done. Blake Austin might be one to watch, surely he has to come good at some stage?? He has nearly bottomed out in price….would want him to show a bit though before buying as it looks like Sezer has taken over most of the plays at the raiders!

Nathan · 19/05/2016 at 21:50
I'll take another 70 from an irrelevant will Mathews

Casper. · 20/05/2016 at 14:27
Geez mate, I bagged him not you!?! But cmon, he did nothing….jagged a try and a line break IN THE 77TH minute, which was all Aikens work, otherwise he racks up his usual 39! I did state "he will jag the occasional attacking stat" didn't I?? ! Take those lucky points and be happy I says……

Coach_Cowboy · 17/05/2016 at 17:17
First time I've disagreed with you Casper haha but love the range of opinions happening in here. Team lists came out 15 minutes ago and Matthews is on the bench! Proceed with caution!

Casper. · 17/05/2016 at 18:37
Haha, how dare you Cowboy. All good mate. I haven't had Parker all year for the very reasons blokes are now looking to trade him out. Post Byes for me. I cant change my opinion on Mathews!!

jockreynolds · 17/05/2016 at 19:24
This back and forth is bringing a tear to this old bastards eyeballs! Love it lads. Matthews benched Cowboy? Bloody hell

jockreynolds · 17/05/2016 at 16:07
I reckon I'll turf Parker as well this week Nathan. Wonderful to see you here in the comments mate!! Welcome aboard! Will he get the kicking duties back? That's the big one isn't it.

Nathan · 17/05/2016 at 16:31
Sure is mate- it doesn't look that way- I think we need to move him on and round 20 have another look

jockreynolds · 17/05/2016 at 19:25
Yep. Kick the old silver fox to the curb

King Julian · 17/05/2016 at 14:38

score of 1325 pending changes for round 10.

deffinitely bringing in radraga this week, probably for latrell mitchell or hopoate
and taking out corey oates (2RF) for Frizell or Matthews.. will hold out one more week for graham as with his consistent scores his price value is not rising.

nathan · 17/05/2016 at 14:45
Hi King,
im benching my Roosters and Storm players mate – they are great for round 15 and 18.
they are extremely juicy after this first buy round.
if you have any sharks – move them on.

Paulie Walnuts · 17/05/2016 at 15:24
I'm keeping Barba for 1 more week, BE 28, milking as much cash out of him as possible
Storm have a bye R18

jockreynolds · 17/05/2016 at 16:04
Is this.. THE King Julian of Orion Hotel fame?!

King Julian · 17/05/2016 at 20:33
Yes! Sorry i missed the call this morning.. im elusive

jockreynolds · 17/05/2016 at 21:04
No worries mate!! Would love a pic of you great man?

Casper. · 17/05/2016 at 15:20

You see, NRL is a game, 2 teams and oval shaped ball, goes for 80 mins………and so forth.

Coach_Cowboy · 17/05/2016 at 17:15

Team lists out – Will Matthews named on bench with Michael Cooper named at lock!

jockreynolds · 17/05/2016 at 19:25
Hell!

The Beard · 18/05/2016 at 10:06

Semi in for L Mitchell this week!
