    Trying to fit him into my side with some downgrades I'm happy to do

    Cleary>Moses and Moga>246k centre still leaves me 60k short of Fifita. Probably can't be done without a few TLT surprises

    Does Moga make it into full-strength back 5 once Best returns. Assuming Ponga and Lee are certainties who misses out from Best, Shibasaki, Hunt, Moga once Best is fit

    Before injury Knights were almost certain to line up with this back 5

    1.Ponga
    2.Lee
    3.Best
    4.Moga
    5.Hunt

    Hunt will be somewhere in the back 5 as he was one of their best last year. Now that Best is going to miss a few weeks Shibasaki has a chance to lock down the spot

    The more easy pick cheapies the easier the game becomes for everyone

    I'm sure most here would back their fantasy skills against average Joe, so the harder the competition is the better for us

    Who would you pair with Fifita?

    Go expensive with Knight/Merrin or hope Carrigan is up to the task?

    I've started with Fifita last 2 years, and would love to have him, but I really want to see proof of fitness (also if he comes in, someone else I want has to leave)

    62 average for the first half of last year (excluding 6 minute game) is very good if his body is up to it

    Haas! cheer Need it to rain 246K players.

    Nah, after his back end last year, it's too much of a punt straight up. Don't see him rising much in value anyway.

    Shibasaki had already locked down right centre. Moga is battling Tuala to replace Best. Moga did seem to be preferred, but has hammy problems, and Tuala went well on the weekend

    I was glad Curran didn’t just walk into everybodies fantasy side.
    Just like Nikora last year- when everybody had him, nobody had him.

    Totally agree with this. The less cheapies the better. Reminds me of old DT where you could barely fit 2 out and out guns in your squad, let alone nearly one per position

    This is why I don't seriously play supercoach. By the time byes roll around you have enough cash to pick 21 guns and it becomes about lucking into the player that scores a try that week

    With Lodge out at first I say no because he could start. I think Ofa is better off the bench so even when Lodge returns Ofa comes off dat bench imo

    I'm just guessing like everyone else... but it would seem to me that he is going to play 80 mins fairly regularly, with a little bit of that spent in the middle.

    I can't really see why he would play a large part of the game on an edge, but still only play 60 ish mins. Maybe he has a 5 to 10 min break during the second half. No way he gets subbed in the first half if he starts the game out wide. No starting 2rf gets subbed in teh first half except for Franky Winterstein  lol!

    He will still get heavily involved while on an edge because he's just that type of player, he's in everything.

    I guess the CS might give us an indication, but we've been led astray by the CS in the past.

    Priced at 55 though, he could average 60, but is that really worth it?

    Who me? I would never lead you astray. I don't have many predictions about Murray and Bennet however1

    I'd probably start with Smith captain and gauge Lolo's mins in first 1-2 rounds and then probably pick Lolo if mins are acceptable
