    Similar takeaway. He will 100% be in my 21. Unlikely 17 until he makes Tigers 13, which won’t be long

    Thats a sneaky pick that could save a trade.

    Thoughts?

    What are the thoughts on Crichton? Why does everyone have him starting? The rest is pretty stock standard, aside from not having Isaako and having Watkins over Best really.

    Hey mate good to have you join over here, I know I convinced you to join you’ve got a Jake Friend in me.

    My goal is try beat you and I’m improving but I just can’t get there.

    You taught me so much when I was new to fantasy.

    He’s cheap and he’s favoured to get the right centre spot so will be playing on Cleary’s side.

    I can’t see Best averaging more than 25 and I feel Watkins may be handy and get that average up to 29-30 points.

    Cheaper than Best and Watkins and should score similarly (we hope).

    I just put him and 3 x 246 nuffies in there to show I'm not relying on 4 x 228k nuffies to make my dreams come true.

    With Lowe down for the count, I think Su’A becomes more valuable, and Kolomatangi becomes relevant. Murray may end up playing the best part of 80mins, too.

    I know it’s only 9s and trials, but I’m concerned the broncs are running a flat attack. That means quick play the balls and go forward from dummy half are crucial. If the broncos start with Macca then they’re fooked. Start with Turps and you’ve got 55mins+ of go forward. Turps/Paix = 80mins of DH running.

    Any league player would look fast running against an AFL player that retired in 2008

    sometimes you need to spend just a little more to find something worthwhile. I currently have Luai (as should everyone), Crichton, Saab and Magoulias (not a back, I know). The only one I am worried about is Saab, but thats $1.012M, about $100k above base priced nuffies. Even with Saab, he hasnt scored well in his past games, but not all cows need to go crazy to start with (in fact its kind of annoying when too many peak at once and you dont have the downgrades), so I am happy for him to sit there for 4 rounds until he inevitably scores a try or two and blooms late. People jumped off Sivo last year after two rounds and he went and scored a 72- which is ridiculous strategy. Just need to have patience with the backs, they are boom or bust. Plus i suspect the new attacking highball rules will favor a stringbean like Saab so he may well stay in my team

    Replace Saab with Walters and you have my 4. The one I’m not sure about is Magoulias

    Btw, Crichton is DPP so worth the 20k extra and avoids you needing to get an additional punty outside back
