Got my first draft underway, I think Cleary, Koro, BBrailey, JFH and Lomax are must have's, the last two mostly just for DPP sake. Going for an aggressive bench full of cheap hookers which went well last year, but need to make up the numbers.

    Who are some of the others to look at in FRF, 2RF, CTR, WFB?

    Friend
    JFH//????
    Crichton//Fifita//????
    Cleary//Brimson
    Lomax//????
    Turbo//Papy//????

    Koro//Grant//BBrailey//228k
    4x 228's


    Welcome donkey

    FRF almost everyone here has one of Haas or AFifita. Knight is a popular midranger, with Merrin, James, also popping up a few times
    Some people hoping a cheapie becomes available. Maybe someone like Musgrove. At the moment not sure there is anyone I'd be comfortable playing in my 17, but might be someone NPR worthy

    2RF has plenty of potential midrange value.
    Garner, LLeilua, Su'A, Lowe, Stimson, JWilliams, Hess are all people to keep an eye on (some of these are outsiders to make the starting 13 but will be good value if they can get a spot)

    nothing obvious in CTR right now
    Braidon Burns is my favourite for a discount at good scores. Otherwise most people are hoping for a cheapie to grab a start

    I had him for his amazing run last season, it was fun. He relies heavily on attacking stats of course but will more often than not get them.

    Corey Thompson will be hard done by if he misses out. He was easily one of the Tigers' best last season.

    Yeah, I was just thinking you gotta feel sorry for the poor bastard. Survives the Latrell Mitchell scare then gets sideswiped by Doueihi out of nowhere. Tough gig not being one of the game’s most wanted.

    What do we see out of Mikaele this season. Could he bump his mins up to around 40? Could be value there if so. He started 5 times last year but only played over 40 mins once out of those 5.. tricky to judge how they will rotate this season

    Seems like he has a decent workrate and can bust a tackle. Could be the 2020 version of Mofo 2019 .. ?

    If Packer and Musgrove are on the bench, you’d think Mikaele could get 40-45mins for sure.

    If Musgrove is on the interchange he will be in my NPR for sure.

    Ok Tigers fans on here WTK2 and Ben etc.... they’d know best, how many minutes do you guys think Mikaele gets?

    In fact if you guys and any other Tigers fans can, please post how many mins you suspect each player in your Tigers pack gets?

    I think there are too many questions over the Tigers forwards at the moment to estimate mins.
    - how fit and able is Packer?
    - how fit is Musgrove, hes had 12+ months with no footy
    - what type of role will Taylor play (if as suggested he wil make 17)

    Another not mentioned around here, SST. Does he goal kick now, or does Flanagan?

    Could SST see enough of a bump in role to elevate to 50 average? Tetevano gone and JWH was reportedly being shopped..

    Probably not but hes an interesting one.

    Caught up on thread 2 and didn’t notice anyone mentioning Capewell. Is there a chance he can push Yeo to the bench and Yeo to be the utility and bench replacement for JFH? Could be an option with the CTR DPP. Have to wait until TLT though.

    I like the thinking, but just checked Capewell's scores last season for 70+ minutes at 2RF and he only averaged 38 including some really bad scores like a 12 and a 13 in 80 minutes each.

    He used to miss tackles for fun last year, it was infurating to watch. Not really sure if that was his own doing, the sharks defensive structures (up and in?), or players either side that contributed..

    I reckon Flanagan for sure. SST is also on my banned list after a horror ownership of him at the back end of last year. Was surprised at his price this year too - a bit more than I'd be willing to fork out if I gave him another chance.

    Yeah he would often fall of tackles, or stick an arm out just making contact. Bad for fantasy.

    But, he did score a century playing Ctr a few season back

    Threw together a quick draft team:

    Friend
    Knight James
    Lowe Murray Fifi
    Reynolds Luai
    Best Lomax
    Brimson Papi Isaako

    Williams BBrailey Koroisau Grant
    Stimson Magoulias Musgrove Talau

    155k ITB

    Any obvious improvements? also what do we think of Adam Reynolds as a gun half, plays round 12 with little to no chance of origin whereas DCE, Cleary and possibly Moses could all play. Souths improved attack through Mitchell could help his scoring too

    I think SST is on a few people's "never again" list after a few years of failing to deliver on expectations. He is too inconsistent for my liking

    JWH just re-signed he won’t be going anywhere.
