Don't think so.  :'(

Edit: We're 1-7, only win against Moscow, flowered up by everybody in between, including HGA.

Just because we know how to attract stars at Moscow (Gray, Heppell, Ward, Armitage, Nic Nat...) doesn't mean we still don't need Jaeger :'(

If all our players were fit our mids would be Heppell, Ward, Armitage and Jaeger with Greenwood as a utility and that is GOAT tier, now we have to play flowering Bastinac as a starting mid and it sickens me :'(

And tbh I'm still a little mad we caught you on the only possible week you would ever score 130+ :P

Nige

Haha, we'll be getting Pearce Hanley back soon, he's a couple of weeks away, after the Lions bye I think.

Rhys Palmer still a few weeks off a return also I think.

At least they'll be two decent boosts to the XV.

Nige

Our next 4 are Dillos, Dublin, NDT, and Mexico City after rep round.

Looking forward to that. 8)

to be fair your getting me at my weakest. Sloane NDS really starting to hurt.

the good news is with the cap injured players become more valuable.

There's no point getting you at your weakest if we're also at our weakest.  :P

Any comment meow on Will Minson? Pushed an ump!

Long fall from grace for the 2013 Sao Paulo Premiership Captain

Luring the competition into thinking he's a spent force, when in reality he's just building into the season while overhyped players like Todd continue to spiral downwards after peaking too early. Big Will was merely patting the ump on the back in encouragement, and has even generously chipped in some of his own cash towards umpiring programs. Minson is a hero and should be praised for his actions.

Nige

Will have Idol, Rising Star and TOTW up tonight.

Cape Town's core best XV is quite young :)

Higgins (27), Everitt (26), Pittard (24), Savage (24), Haynes (23)

JPK (26), Cotchin (25), Scooter (25), Tyson (21)

Martin (28)

Hawkins (26), Bird (26), Cameron (22), McCarthy (20)

Blicavs (24), Curnow (25).

In fact we have no players over 30 in our squad

Our oldest is Adam Cooney who is 29 then James Gwilt who is 28. Both are fringe best XV as well. Aside from them we have Stewart Crameri and Will Schofield who are 26 and then everyone else is 23 or younger.

We should be coming in to our prime in terms of challenging for Top 4/a premiership very soon.

Youngest team in the comp and we're scoring with the best of them :D

A little too young. If you had have kept Shaw, Murphy and Fyfe you'd be the best team in the comp right now, not years down the track.

Well first, we got Armitage (119) and Luke McDonald for Heater, so scrub that.

And even if you add Fyfe and Murphy into the side without taking out whoever we got for them (because it's weird), we wouldn't beat Dublin. That's only about 100 more points per week at absolute most. It's not worth going all out for a premiership if you're not going to win one, so back out of the race (but we're still the 5th highest scorers) and wait for an easier window of opportunity.


Everything you can do I can do better memph ;)
D: Dunn (28), Seedsman (23), Docherty (21), Vlastuin (21)
McDonald (20) or Pearce (24) to replace Dunn when ready/soon

M: Armitage (26), Ward (25), Heppell (23), O'Meara (21)

R: Naitanui (25)

F: Monfries (28), Gray (27), Daniher (21), Hogan (20)
Moore (19) to replace Monfries when ready/soon

U: Greenwood (26), Sheed (20)

Purple 77

I won't even do one, coz Petrie, Cross and Fletcher are in my best XV  :-X

And ALL of those inclusions were late trades or a draft pick... and I don't regret any of those trades/pick.

Besides, got worthy replacements after they retire  8)
