[Chip and Chase]

When do you want to close it mate?
If you are happy to wait for a last minute addition, well and good. If it means the difference between running and not running the comp, then I'm in.

Cheers mate - I'll leave it open till last minute and if I can get 20 without you then good - if not then if we can count you in that'd be awesome. Just didn't want to go to all the trouble and come up one short.

Hi chip n chase. Can you remove me please I’m letting my 8yr old do it this year. Sincere apologies if any inconvenience caused. Hopefully it opens a spot for another punter.

 

[Chip and Chase]

Ok looks like we still have one spot to fill if anyone is interested.

Very few bottom dollar cheapies really, well not many with job security. Obviously Cronulla hooker Brailey - but everyone will have him. Billy Walters the other seemingly obvious one. Warriors prop JTB should get a few weeks off the bench.

Not many dirt cheapie backs - I've gone Hex Williame as I thought he played well in 9's and Charity Shield so hopefully can hold his spot. Froggy might be worth a punt if you think he can lock down the bench utility spot. I'd like to see how Des uses him this weekend and whether he gets a stint at 9 or just keeps the bench warm before I'd consider bringing him in. If you're brave you could go young Hoppa at Broncos, but as soon as Glenn and Oftenhaveago are back he'll drop out

This year the consensus seems to be it's all about the mid range players

 

[Clint]

How'd everyone go rd 1. I got 933. Is that good, bad or indifferent?

985 here.

 

[Chip and Chase]

931 with a couple of underperforming guns.

 

[Clint]

985 here.

Nice.

 

[Clint]

931 with a couple of underperforming guns.

Same. Tom and Teddy?

 

[Chip and Chase]

Turbo and Moses. I'm kicking myself because I had SJ in my team all preseason and then traded him to Moses because I fell for the hype of the Eels easy draw.

Wackos Whispers

BRISBANE BRONCOS

The Broncos are expected to welcome Matt Lodge back from the partial ACL tear he suffered in pre-season. Alex Glenn will be right for round three after recovering from hamstring/calf injuries in pre-season. Joe Ofahenguae will return from the bench after serving his two game suspension. Corey Oates (ribs) and Brodie Croft (shoulder) both suffered injuries in round two but will be right to go once season resumes. At present reports are Darius Boyd won’t travel with the squad to NSW if the Broncos have to stay interstate for an extended period. Rhys Kennedy, Jamil Hopoate and Ethan Bullemor drop out of team after playing in round two. Tevita Pangai remains suspended until round six. Jordan Kahu (shoulder) and Sean O’Sullivan (ACL) are listed to return in mid-June while Jack Bird and Keenan Palasia won’t return this season after suffering ACL knee injuries at training earlier this year.

David Fifita 12. Alex Glenn 13. Pat Carrigan Interchange: 14. Xavier Coates 15. Andrew McCullough 16. Thomas Flegler 17. Joe Ofahenguae



CANBERRA RAIDERS

The Raiders are sweating on John Bateman receiving final clearance to return after undergoing shoulder surgery in early February. If Bateman is cleared to play he would start at second-row likely pushing Corey Horsburgh back to the bench with Michael Oldfield dropping out of the 17. Silvia Havili suffered hamstring injury in round two but will be fit to play. Hudson Young (suspension – Rd 6) and Sebastian Kris (sick leave) are the only players unavailable

Expected team: 1. Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad 2. Bailey Simonsson 3. Jarrod Croker 4. Curtis Scott 5. Nick Cotric 6. Jack Wighton 7. George Williams 8. Josh Papalii 9. Josh Hodgson 10. Dunamis Lui 11. John Bateman 12. Elliott Whitehead 13. Joseph Tapine Interchange: 14. Siliva Havili 15. Emre Guler 16. Iosia Soliola 17. Corey Horsburgh


Bulldogs

The Bulldogs could receive a huge boost with the return of Kieran Foran from shoulder injury, Foran is progressing nicely but will need to prove his fitness and if declared fit would replace Brandon Wakeham at five-eighth. Dean Britt is set to start on the left edge replacing Joe Stimson who suffered shoulder injury in round two. Kerrod Holland set to return from knee injury to take up the bench utility role with Ofahiki Ogden a chance to replace Jake Averillo on the bench. Marcelo Montoya will be fit to return after a knee injury and could come into contention for a wing position. Chris Smith is only other player on injury list and isn’t due back until July after suffering knee injury in All Stars game.

Expected team: 1. Dallin Watene-Zelezniak 2. Nick Meaney 3. Reimis Smith 4. Will Hopoate 5. Christian Crichton 6. Brandon Wakeham/Kieran Foran 7. Lachlan Lewis 8. Aiden Tolman 9.

CRONULLA SHARKS

The Sharks will receive massive boost to offset the loss of Josh Morris to the Roosters with Bronson Xerri (shoulder), Josh Dugan (knee) and Matt Moylan (hamstring/calf) all set to play their first games of season after missing the opening rounds. With the nature of numerous hamstring issues last season then calf injury in pre-season it will be interesting to see if Matt Moylan has the volume of running metres to play full game at fullback. Moylan would replace Kennedy at fullback with Josh Dugan to replace Sione Katoa on the left wing and Xerri replacing Morris at left centre. Briton Nikora will return after missing round two due to knee injury. Wade Graham suffered a foot injury in round two but will be right to go. The final call is whether Scott Sorensen or Billy Magoulias will nab the final bench spot. Cameron King is the only player on long term injury list after suffering ACL injury in pre-season trial in Papua New Guinea

Expected team: 1. Matt Moylan 2. Josh Dugan 3. Bronson Xerri 4. Jesse Ramien 5. Ronaldo Mulitalo 6. Shaun Johnson 7. Chad Townsend 8. Andrew Fifita 9. Blayke Brailey 10. Aaron Woods 11. Briton Nikora 12. Wade Graham 13. Jack Williams Interchange: 14. Connor Tracey 15. Braden Hamlin-Uele 16. Toby Rudolf 17. Scott Sorensen/Billy Magoulias

GOLD COAST TITANS

The Titans are probably the biggest beneficiary of the COVID-19 crisis with a number of players set to return from injury. AJ Brimson (back), Shannon Boyd (shoulder), Kevin Proctor (hamstring), Dale Copley (ribs), Tyronne Roberts (achilies) and Tyrone Peachey (ankle) are all set to play in round three. Kallum Watkins has returned to England to be with his family allowing Copley to move to centre. Moeaki Fotuaika is facing suspension after receiving a charge from round two with the hearing yet to be heard, Boyd is the man most likely to replace him on the bench if suspended. Beau Fermor is closing on returning from ACL knee injury with Keegan Hipgrave (concussion) and Ryan James (ACL) other players on injury list currently.

Expected team: 1. AJ Brimson 2. Phillip Sami 3. Dale Copley 4. Brian Kelly 5. Anthony Don 6. Tyronne Roberts 7. Ash Taylor 8. Jarrod Wallace 9. Mitch Rein 10. Sam Lisone 11. Kevin Proctor 12. Bryce Cartwright 13. Jai Arrow Interchange: 14. Nathan Peats 15. Jai Whitbread 16. Tyrone Peachey 17. Moeaki Fotuaika/Shannon Boyd

MANLY SEA EAGLES

The Sea Eagles side is fairly settled with the only change expected to their round two team being Taniela Paseka returning from ankle injury he suffered during trials coming onto bench to replace Haumole Olakauatu. Jack Gosiewski (back), Manese Fainu (stood down) and Albert Hopoate (ACL) remain unavailable.

Expected team: 1. Tom Trbojevic 2. Jorge Taufua 3. Brad Parker 4. Moses Suli 5. Reuben Garrick 6. Dylan Walker 7. Daly Cherry-Evans 8. Addin Fonua-Blake 9. Danny Levi 10. Martin Taupau 11. Joel Thompson 12. Curtis Sironen 13. Jake Trbojevic Interchange: 14. Lachlan Croker 15. Sean Keppie 16. Morgan Boyle 17. Taniela Paseka

MELBOURNE STORM

Storm could welcome back Christian Welch after he played 40 minutes in round one of the Queensland Cup on his comeback from an ACL injury and if fit he could replace Max King on the bench.

NEWCASTLE KNIGHTS

The Knights will be without Kalyn Ponga when the season resumes due to a two match suspension picked up in round two with Tex Hoy expected to make NRL debut at fullback. Mitch Barrett has had back surgery and his loss will be offset by the return of Sione Mata’utia.New recruit Jayden Brailey’s season looks to be over after he suffered an ACL injury in round two with Connor Watson set to take up hooking role, which may see Mason Lino promoted to the 17 to play bench utility. Bradman Best could replace Enari Tuala at left centre after recovering for foot surgery. Herman Ese’ese (ankle) and Lachlan Fitzgibbon (ribs) will be right to go after picking up injuries in Round 2.

[Chip and Chase]

Ok we are back on. First head to head games in the league are this upcoming round starting next Thursday, so don't forget to get your team in order.

5 trades for Round 3. I think I'll be using them all to fix a few issues that I have. How about everyone else ?? I imagine there are a few Fifita and Cleary owners out there that will be trading those guys. My CTW is a bit of a cluster so I need to sort that out as a priority. No reduction in total trades and no bye rounds now because Origin has been postponed. So trades will not be as crucial as previous years as we almost have enough for two per week all the way to GF

With the reduced number of NRL rounds now the H2H comp will feature 14 round games (NRL rounds 3-16) and then 4 weeks of finals (NRL rounds 17-20). So not every team will play against each other team.

League games for Round 3 of NRL are as follows - good luck
