My capt was anstey and hodge and ballinger dominated for me.

Still no sign of Shipp or Whitehead.

Ere should be back this week, assuming all went well with the birth of his child. I scored 770 moved to 14th with Hodge and also Newson from the Taipans doing well. Ingles was disappointing. Took a risk with Hodge I guess as he was in a bit of doubt but thanks to this forum (NBL live no help) I left him in.

704 points, weekly 220 points, 576 overall.

Had Ere on my bench, as well as Hodge 'cos I thought he was only going to play one game (d'oh!). Redhage was my captain. I also used my finally trade for the season (Ballinger for Crosswhite), leaving $700 in the bank. These are the boys I'm taking to the end of the road:

Redhage, Ballinger, Lampley, Ere
Jawai, Rogers
Penney, P Crawford, Hodge, Crowe

Ere was only supposed to miss the one game, but apparently his wife still hasn't given birth so he's in doubt for Wednesday's game.

Had a crap round with a score of 585, weekly ranking of 1356, and dropped back 30 spots to 213. Still have my one trade spare I can use but not too sure on who to use it for. I have 8.2k and my ranking is 213 so if you wanna check it out and give me suggestions then thanks.

This week im looking good with 18 scheduled games over my 10 players [provided Ebi plays both games].

Does anybody know if Ebi is going to play any games this round?

My captain choice is difficult this week as Anstey, Wortho, Ebi, Greene, Hendrix, Ingles, Lampley and Redhage all have 2 matches.

Im probalby going to choose either Anstey or Redhage. Anstey has Bullets and Hawks while Redhage has Kings and breakers.

Who are your choices for Captain this week?

Had a look at your team Ingles 13 - looks a good team I would only look to trade out a guard, probably Galen Young, for a King or a Hawk as they have 2 games a round for the remaining rounds. You can't quite get Kavossy Franklin, but even Dontaye Draper or Luke Kendall could be a good get (spot the Kings fan). I keep wondering when Glen Saville is going to hit his straps - he is a ridiculous 55K, and is a way better player than that, but he seems to be struggling to fit properly into the Kings line up, even though he is playing a role each week, he is not scoring any points.

Of course Ingles13, don't use a trade for the hell of it - who knows who might get injured. And go with the big fella Anstey as captain - even though he's not shooting well he racks up steals and blocks every week. Good luck.

The uncertainty of injuries and lack of press on them makes it hard for Dream Team. This week we've got:
Bruton: ankle. Is he going to play?
Ere: Wife yet to pop. What's his chances?
Loughton: Tribunal Hearing for striking. When is this?
Mackinnon: Knee. Is this really season ending?
Maher: Is he really returning this week?

Anyone know the answers?

Weekly ranking of 250, Overall #1.

9/10 players of mine have 2 games this round, i dont feel the need to do anymore trades this season.

I'm a bit cheesed that I dont have Hodge, but i think the rest of my team should do well enough.

3 more rounds to go peepz.

hey guys, 743 this week so I'm now 23rd (need 400 points to catch up with MC).

I'm thinking I'll use my last trade next week to get Kavossy for Hodge.

I'm also wondering about Ebi, Mantis where did u hear that his wife hasnt given birth yet? Surely the Bullets wont let their star miss another game after it proved the difference vs. Perth.

Xztatik only 400? better watch my tail!
I had Ebe on the bench this week so I think I was lucky to maintain without points from him.
Gonna bench him again as can't risk the uncertainty of his return.

Boti mentioned it in his column the other day, although I just read an article in the Courier-Mail on Sam Mac's injury, and at the end it refers to "Ebi Ere's timely return", and an article on Sportal says "Third placed Brisbane (17-8) will welcome back Ere who will fly directly to Melbourne as they take on the Tigers on Wednesday night", so your guess is as good as mine! As we Dream-teamers are only too painfully aware, it is hard enough getting info on injuries to players who are actually in the country, let alone finding out what is happening with a player who has gone back home to Oklahoma.

It appears Ebi had his kid a baby girl named Jordan Sanai, and is due to fly directly to Melbourne for the game. She popped her head out for only a few minutes before Ebi dunked her back in : )

Wonder what kinda form Ebe will be in if he's just jumping off a plane.
Worth a risk.

Big call there MC! I'm leaving Ere on my bench, and starting Redhage and Ballinger.

It's probably decisions like this that are the reason you're #1 and I'm #500-odd :-).

haha.
Yeh i took a few risks through the season but i think maintenance might be a better option for me now..
I've got 10 hours to decide, I'll see what me gut says by the end of the day.

37 points 6 rebounds and 6 steals, plus a nice little $130 outlay on Brisbane, Ebe you da man!

Left Ebi on the bench dangit. He was sensational. At least Anstey had 4 blocks and 3 steals, but his shooting is abysmal.

By my calculations, Ere was worth a cool 92 points tonight. And he still has another game yet, against us!
