I reckon his minutes could be lower based on fitness and should increase as the season goes on.

I'm not up on everything yet but who is Taulu I see appearing in a lot of teams now?

Yeah I can see him starting from the bench as an impact player. Still big minutes but I’m not sure he starts

So you can blame them when your team hits the 10k mark?

That shan’t be happening this year and I’m gonna flog you too

I would leave the cash as is. You do want some wiggle room but dont want overly much. Realistically 1 mid ranger and 1 cashcow will be the wrong choice and require trading after Round 1 so you will be fine. Not sure how I feel about JMK pic.

Generally I would agree. Last year I think a lot of us (me?) were caught out, not with missed base pricers, but with missed almost base pricers. Those almost base pricers, say 280k odd, fired making them (low 300's) and just out of reach without some serious reshuffling. But in general I agree, pick the team you think is best and if there is cash left over or not don't worry about it too much.

He's only started in the 2nd row 9 games in the past 2 years, but he has played an average of 75 minutes in those games. Where are the fitness concerns coming from?

Pure speculation. Nothing else. New club though he could be firing. I haven't done any reading on him lately though. It's just hard to trust Madge and his second row rotations. They were pretty random last year.

And thanks re Talau.

No Haas is a big call, Crichton had such a down year last year. Why does he bounce back? Cleary and Trbojevic are decent shouts.

I'm okay with leaving Haas out, it's just that lack of a definite captain option in that team worries me.

yeah there were quite a few changeups in the 2nd row, not always due to injury.

Chris Lawrence, Chee-Kam and even Chris McQueen could get a starting spot at any point, especially if there are a few injuries

After earlier asking for advice on Ryan James, Trent Merrin and Liam Knight

Assuming he is fit and playing prop, Ryan James is the clear winner. Much more confidence in him hitting 50 regularly than the other 2

Fun fact:

Haas is also good at tennis, in fact he's on right now!

I got that one quick enough, but still haven't figured out who Mofo is.

As much as I love the rainbow unicorn, you know you're now relieved of all inconveniences now right?

Hi all, super stoked to be finally back on this page to talk fantasy fantasy fantasy. Hope everyone had an awesome break over xmas & new years.

To kick things off - whats everyone's thoughts on Milford? Me personally I am super keen on him, looks as though he has slimmed down a fair bit, looks sharp skills wise and with the addition of croft into the Bronc's team could allow for him to focus on his running game (TB's Galore).

Cheers!

Can’t find my original sportal avatar

I've got a few ideas for my team name but I think they might be lame. A few involve the Mofo.

Welcome back mate. I agree Croft will be good for Milf's running game, but Milf is coming off (I think) his best fantasy season on the back of HUGE km's. The obvious concern is that Croft steals a fair chunk of those. I think he'll score well but don't see any value there. Do you have any counter thoughts?
