I’m a sucker for a raider. Might take a punt on him

I love him as a player, has everything to go well in fantasy, may not get the huge bulk KM to elevate to Moses/Milford. but maybe turns into the next Munster

Is he a goal kicker that could take it from Croker?

Seibold deserves an uppercut if he starts Bird on the bench come round 1.

Croker's one of the best kickers in the league. Sezer, also one of the best kickers in the league, didn't take over from Croker, so I doubt Williams will, unless Stuart has him in fantasy.

If you're talking English goalkickers, it's more likely that Watkins - who Holbrook will know is a good kicker - kicks at the Titans given how ropey Taylor is, but I suppose they won't score that many tries.

Having Williams instead of Moses leaves me with something like this

Friend
Haas, knight
Brown, Stimson, Williams
Williams, luai
Burns, capewell
Paps, Lomax, drinky

Koro, su’a, tapine, carigan.

4cheapies and 60k left over

I've gone pretty well on guessing that awkwardly priced player who elevates to GUN or close over the years, just didn't start with them that year

JFH
Ese'Ese
JTurbo
RFM
Whitehead

some who were low starting but nailed on and I actually had early

Crichton
Soliola was available at CTR as well first year

He does kick goals but won't take it from Croker

Which mid-priced guys are you not starting with this year?

Would have rated Williams chances higher of making a fantasy impact when he had Bateman and Scott outside him. Maybe one for later in the season when Bateman is back from injury.

To be fair, he played a lot of centre in his first stint in the NRL.
The fact he converted exclusively to a forward whilst in England just eluded whoever set his position when he returned

Yea, nice when that happens in fantasy! Shame a lot of the guys coming over have some extra fantasy fat on them these days!

I think there is an outside chance when Lodge comes back it means Fifita is on the bench

Perfect time to upgrade to Haas

Little risk with these guys as well below a top range middie

In the top range of middies, In the pack I'd be looking at Garner, Harris (another I got right and actually started few years back) and Kikau looked much bigger and leaner in 9s

Super league players used to be cheap. Then Surgess was available for peanuts his first season out here, and after that they decided to put a stop to the cheapness.

Blake Brailey is too expense to have and sit at 18 hey?

Even weak teams' goal kickers get a 6-7 point bump. No worries can tell you all about it

Yea those were the days mate!

I can still remember guys like ARey and DCE being available for something stupid lik e$88,000 in their rookie years and killing it. Cleary another god send
