As dad as the NRL is concerned, they are just the Warriors

Sounds like Australians picking Prime Ministers

Someone who hasn't yet been mentioned is Jarrod Croker

Comes around 500k, but has the potential to elevate himself to full time centre gun this season. It would be a set and forget selection with no origin to worry about if it paid off.

Croker averaged 40+ on 2014-16, but has dropped to around 35 the past 3 years. You think he can get back to what he was? I think he's past his (fantasy) best

it was a shitpost as requested haha

Think McLean could be a proper gun prop this year without Scott or Bolton. Bit expensive just to act on the hunch though.

Cowboys prices being up early suggest we might be getting TWO A DAY and the site will be open sooner.

Surely their bench would be
14. Reece Robson/Jake Granville
15. Hola/Jensen
16. Molo
17. Dunn/Wright/Asiata

They don't need another bench middle.

I can’t work out if you are a superfan for name dropping Chiaotzu, or just a filthy casual for not understanding that Krillin was a motherflippin’ badass G

Like he was, but could he pull off a pink shirt like Vegeta?

Also how do the Cowboys backs shake up?

Hampton is super cheap, and I know his scores suck but averaged 30 points at CTR with some shocking performances. If he jags a good game or two could be a decent NPR.

I wrote a big puff piece on him last year and I agree he can be a gun prop (50+). Looking at his stats last year I noticed a trend.
In the first half of the year (12 rounds) he averaged 57 minutes a game and 50.58 pts/per, compared to the second half of the year where he averaged 45.9 minutes a game and 37.3 pts/per. Not sure if this can come down to him carrying an injury, McLean picking up Tolo's slack in the first half of the year, or the Cowboys season being gone halfway through the year and Green giving Molo/Hola more minutes in the middle.

Another case of more minutes = more points and I don't rate Green as a coach so who knows what he does with his forwards this year.

If I were Green I would go.

1. Holmes
2. Feldt
3. Marsters
4. O'Neill
5. Lumeulu/Hampton

I reckon Opacic will be in the centres with Marsters.

Who benefits the most from Prior and Gallen's departures? Fifita, Woods or the young blokes?

I would also have Opacic based off last year's form.

Yeah forgot about him

Edit - Aren't Marsters, Opacic and O'Neill all right centres?

I know right? Amazing given we had Hess there last year

I thought O'Niell had basically faded into obscurity ?

Is marsters likely to do even better at Cowboys?

I think Williams, Rudolph, Uele and Magoulias benefit before Fifita or Woods.
