Been looking closer at AFB

Last year he played every game, and scored 41 points in 48 minutes

This year (disregarding 25 minutes against the dogs) he has 53 points in 49 minutes.
Main scoring increase is metres gained, getting an extra 5 points a game there and small improvements everywhere else.
So stats look good, the main question is if its sustainable. he's not actually get a big increase in game time - seems to be solid for 40-50 minutes most weeks, so should be able to expect that to continue. Just a question about how well his output stacks up.

He's one of those PPM kings that have tempted people in pre-season a few times over the past couple years. Has he finally cracked it for the big time?

I think it helps that Manly are winning games and with no DCE or TTurbo I think the workload is being put on the middle to march them up the field. Be good to see how much things change when DCE and TTurbo return as they are generally the main ball getters and generate most of the attack so guys like AFB, Marty may fall short of some of the scores they are getting now. On the other hand, it could improve as there will be the chance for more attacking stats with DCE and TTurbo creating the momentum for them to go forward. Watch this space.

Very tempted to go with AFB over Taupau. Will need to play Carty or Young this week anyway if I went AFB or Taupau.

Yeah, have been tossing this up all day. Don't like Taupau this year but AFB comes with risk, if he gets injured or suspended again for 12 I'd be cranky. Either way I think I'll sideways trade whichever I choose for Matterson anyway. Leaning towards the safer pick in Taupau

Anyone agree with my view on the AFB v Taupau saga?

Would you be saying that if AFB didn't have a game where he played 25 minutes and scored 24. Without that he is averaging 53.4... which is better than Marty. Pretty sure he injured himself in that game and was going just a tick under 1PPM before that point.

Averaged 50 a game at lock in his 2016 season with the Tigers. Has played one game at lock for Manly in 2017 where he had a 54.
