That means he’s gone for the season. Unlucky

It is the best possible thing that could happen to Souths. It’s not a serious injury hopefully, but he is past it. Yes, he had one decent Origin game amongst superstars last year, but he is a PLODDER.

I want to see some of the up and coming Souths forwards in first grade now. We will never win a Comp with Lowe as anything more than a depth player. That is all he is.

In 2014, Souths won the Comp with 5 first year rookies.

I’ll let people here look them up. I’ll award points.

Bring the downvotes

Young Walters is quality. He’ll be playing first grade this year. Utility.

He was always a first pick fullback, playing in the halves and has been in my team from first iteration. All the Storm breakouts - Pap, Drinkwater and Hughes are great fullback options. The last 2 are guaranteed to average 50+.

Drinkwater's career average in the halves is 60!

He's been on my radar for a while. If he can beat Clifford to a first grade spot he's under strong consideration

Sure mate. Had your first look tonight

I loved Lowe back in his Cowboys days a lot but if we're talking about winning a comp, it's hard to argue. He has the heart but he can't bring that origin intensity every game. Sua was shit too. Unfortunately not trusting either in my fantasy team at the moment. Would have loved to see Lowe play 80 minutes for 45 points but I don't see him even playing 80 minutes to start off with.

He hasn’t got the gig. I’d almost give Rabs odds that he wont

What odds mate?

$100 even money says they don’t both average 50.
Actually that’d be stealing more money off you. I’ll give you $5, that equaled 4/1 when you were 50.

If not Lowe, you'll win with non plodder forwards such as Mark Nicholls? Yeah, good luck

Lowe may very well be past his best but he's one of the few quality options you guys have right now

Yeah, I'd be confident enough to part with a testicle if Hughes averages 50. And I'd think of those three Pap surely averages most? Surely.

Been out of action for a week or so, which has thankfully offered good time away from my team, which I haven't even looked at for a good week or so. Catching up on a couple of things, but the Holmes and Bird/Isaako situations are interesting. I've dangerously had Holmes from day one but I think we'll part ways soon. Bird at starting fullback would be an interesting prospect, however.

Anyway, definitely looks like a break until TLT is required.

Happy starting with Moses but not so much Matterson based on that but early days.  I have Williams who was okay if he gets the minutes.  Hess can stay in if he gets the starting gig.  Thst try was vintage Hess.  Drinkwater looking good too.

Sailor for a wing spot, even taking FB from Lomax?  MC9 might have to be a pick too.  Looked gold.  Fitting him and Haas in is going to be tough.  Croft showed some nice glimpses too.

Who is MC9?

If Drinkwater starts at 6 then he’s of interest, at fullback he’s an avoid.

Su’a was shit tonight.
