Let the dust settle after SOO and the internationals. See who might be rested and/or injured. Also, are you playing for rank or H2H? (I assume we all playing for ranking since we are freshman at this game).

At first glance, it would be Lane, Murray, Cust, Xerri and Allan out for...................

Yeah definitely ranking. Those were the names jumping out at me as well. Half my problem is not really knowing who the ‘premiums’ are in this game so flying a bit blind with that regard. With that said, been going alright, albeit with a bit of luck!

I find Buy, Sell and Hold at https://www.nrlsupercoachtalk.com/ is a good start. I've also been watching a lot more NRL games this season. They are shorter in length, which means I can see more of them as I work on weekends, and have been more entertaining than many of the AFL games played at the same time.

I still watch LA Dodgers games on Saturday and Sunday until they finish. Home games start at 12:10pm, so AFL and NRL get a viewing after games end. I'll also watch movies instead of AFL/NRL games, if I'm sick of the product on offer, which is often the case nowadays. Good for me, sad for Aussie sports.

Early Mail heading into NRL Round 15.

* Queensland fullback Kalyn Ponga (knee) picked up a knock in Origin and is racing the clock for Saturday’s clash against the Broncos.

“Kalyn’s got a cork just above his knee so it’s going to take a fair bit of application from him this week to make sure he’s right and good to go,” said Newcastle’s head of physical performance Balin Cupples.

Ponga was among a host of Queensland squad members who caught the red eye back from Perth immediately following Origin 2. He arrived at Sydney Airport early Monday morning alongside Tim Glasby, Kurt Capewell and Corey Norman.

The Knights also confirmed Queensland forward Glasby suffered a medial elbow ligament injury. The club is unsure of the severity, with scan results expected early Tuesday.

* Nathan Cleary (ankle) is set miss 4-6 weeks due to an injury sustained in Origin 2. He will have scans on Monday night.

* Cowboys lock Josh McGuire is facing a one-match ban for a hit on James Maloney in Origin 2.

* Queensland centre Michael Morgan (shoulder) is in doubt for the Cowboys. The injury is not serious but he could miss 1-2 weeks.

* Tyson Frizell (neck) has revealed he is battling an ongoing injury that almost forced him to pull out of Origin. He faces being rested by the Dragons.

* The Rabbitohs are hopeful of having Adam Reynolds (back fracture) on deck for Friday’s clash against the Dragons.

* Titans halfback Ash Taylor (personal leave) is set to return.

* Parramatta playmaker Dylan Brown (back) is set to play his first match since Round 3.

* England international Josh Hodgson (broken thumb) is on track to return for the Raiders.

* Andrew Fifita is out until Round 17 following his failed judiciary bid.

* Former Melbourne fullback Scott Drinkwaterhas officially joined the Cowboys, effective immediately.

Would love some advice. Is Ponga definitely playing? Looking at him, Mitchell or Matterson as targets to get this week, but maybe I’m missing an obvious inclusion?

I’m doing something a bit funky and trading out Cook for Fainu. Feel like Cook is going to leak a lot more cash with limited minutes this week and Fainu has just been given the sole hooker role at Manly for the next 3-4 rounds. Should mean I have a lot of cash to throw around and I have 13 trades left still to play with.
