In a shocking turn of events, NRL teams in round 11 are facing a Magic Round without the presence of Joey Manu for the Roosters, as Nicho Hynes has been named for the Sharks.
The injury bug just won't quit, leaving SuperCoaches scrambling to adjust their lineups and trade strategies.
It's a real game-changer, mate!
Joey Manu, a true SuperCoach stud, has been sidelined due to concussion, throwing a curveball at Team List Tuesday plans for many fans.
With his absence expected to be only one week, it's a test of resilience for the 32,000 coaches who had him on their team.
In times like this, it's all about the trade boost, mate.
It's going to be a total Boost-a-thon this week, so buckle up for some serious team analysis.
For those who haven't been keeping up, major players like Tom Trbojevic, Nathan Cleary, and Roger Tuivasa-Scheck are already out long-term with hamstring injuries, making them definite sells.
And let's not forget about Shaun Johnson from the Warriors, who will be sidelined for the next three weeks but is set to make a comeback in round 14.
It's tough news, but he's still a sell.
In other news, Trai Fuller has been dropped by the Dolphins to make room for the return of Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow, causing quite a stir among SuperCoaches.
Despite the rollercoaster ride, Fuller has seen an impressive price increase in just two weeks.
With his price nearly maxed out, it might be time to sell, but don't count him out just yet - he could still come in handy during the byes if Hammer makes the Queensland squad.
It's a wild ride in the NRL, mate - you never know what's around the corner.
