So if both Houston and Butler get named this week and you can only pick one - which one do you pick?

I actually think Houston will be more reliable/consistent but Butler might have the better JS

Bottom line, we only need them to play the next 4 games and their job is done

If Pittard and HH return this week and Houston holds his spot I think he might be the one
+1...if he holds when those both come back he's coming in

Pittard playing 2's blows all of this up! What to do with Houston???

Flower it, I'm going to flip a coin!

Really really concerned for Houston job security ,

Why isn't anyone talking about preuss, will the guy keep doing okay with goldy in ?

Goldy didn't play last week.

North have gone in too tall against GWS this week with Brown, Daw, Goldy and Preuss all playing.

North will get smashed.

Preuss will get dropped.

Haven't got Houston or Butler.

Should I dump Bowes for one of them?

I have Houston, don't have Butler. Holding on to Bowes for now, see how he goes this week and probably next as well. If he's still going crap and/or gets dropped, there's always guys like Balic, Clugg, and Hayward :)

Cheers GL. It's been troubling me all week. I'll probably hold.

Doesn't have the JS to be worth it.

Looks like a bit of ruck work for Otten now too

More importantly, sounds like he is in their best 22 currently :)

Well, yeah, with Jenkins out that's expected. Who would you drop for Jenkins next week though?
