    One thing I noticed about Luai is he's a bit of a hothead in 4 games at 5/8 last year he got sin-binned twice and then got sin-binned last week in the trial

    Also although you shouldn't make much of the draw I don't see him getting many attacking stats against Roosters, Storm and Raiders in first 5 rounds but I will probably end up starting him in 17 after a little bit after gauging scores and after some of short-term cash cows exhaust usefulness

    Pookus McFly wrote:I was never sold on Moses initially, even after I ran with him for most of last season. But as long as he keeps finding 372 kick metres as an average I think his base is just too high to do poorly.

    In 2019 his game average was:
    19 points in KM
    6 points in RM
    7 points in goals
    5 points in TA
    17 points in tackles
    6 points in TBs
    -10 in demerits

    Has him sitting at about 50 points without doing anything too special
    Matterson is a strong defender, I am hoping he cleans up that missed tackle count a little and he actually improves

    We always talk about how easy draws don’t equate to fantasy scores, but the Eels really should* dominate the opening round and Moses was already looking sharp in the Nines**

    *Eels love to blow an easy win though, they can be like the Tigers when they are favourites
    **From what you can take from such a tournament anyway

    I feel the same way, but am just wary of possibly being burned. On one hand, he may not replicate the number of TAs this year, but he only did score 2 tries last year, which you would imagine he'd improve upon.

    The main reason I ask is because of my draft league. I'm Pick 11, and think my likely best available players will be Moses or Jrbo (yesterday's mail is that Jrbo is pushing hard for a Round 1 return vs Melbourne). I have Cleary and DCE going before then.

    It's tough as Halves are more valuable than 2RFs, but Jrbo is a more reliable captain than Moses. Any advice all?

    That's why he's only been in my 18-21

    Clearly you got the pleasure of reading my message to Rabbits. Whether Rabbit decides to keep good on his threat to leave will be up to him. That doesn't give posters a free kick so to speak. I said I'd hand out warnings, consider this yours.

    So is he gone for good or is this another one of those times he mouths off and threatens to leave us only  to return a few months later wanting more? Feels strangely like a couple past relationships but without the blumpkins... Shocked

    Where did the 50 mins for Brailey stuff come from? I'm just digging around, can't find anything. Most recent comments from the coach from Fox article this morning are:

    “We could roll with four forwards on the bench and have a Billy Magoulias or someone who could fill in in that spot,” he said.

    “Or you could go with a traditional utility like a Connor Tracey or Braydon Trindall, or we could look to push Blayke out to 80 (minutes).

    “There are a lot of positions up for grabs at this stage. There are still blokes in rehab and getting through their training loads so it’ll all be determined over the last couple of weeks of pre-season.”

    YOU CANT DO THIS TO ME, I DONT NEED YOU!!

    Yeah fair call though, it was a cheap shot. I was doing my best to keep my head down too, and will continue to do so. I actually kind of feel bad for Rabs- all this has blown out from one joke I made about everyone suddenly being Drinkwater owners. The guy does add a lot to the forum, and with the right people blocked (me included), there would no doubt be more harmony. I hope he does come back. I will go back to mindless fantasy football talk now.

    I must say politely and with respect that I don't really understand what I'm getting a warning for, was just a lighthearted echoing to Chewie's comment based on a throwaway comment he said but I'll shutup from now on and that's the last you'll hear from me about it.

    In order of positions I would be comfortable starting a cheapie

    WFB>CTR>HLF>HOK>2RF>FRF

    Cheapie backs play 80 minutes and most of them will score a try at some point to kick start price rises. They won't kill you if they score a 20 odd, even the true guns do that from time to time.

    Rookie halves next to a non dominant kicker normally have a solid floor and a good ceiling. We have seen plenty of these over the years turn into keepers in their first season(Hodkinson, DCE, Reynolds, Hunt, SJ, Cleary). Below the backs on my pecking order because in this position a score in the 20s will kill your week

    Rookie hookers generally have a hard time adjusting to first grade. Pace of the ruck, defensive patterns and controlling the attack makes it very difficult for a young hooker to move to keeper tier. They usual end up getting rotated or lose some minutes throughout the year. Most peak at a 40 odd average and need to be moved on. Solid floor while starting.

    All the analysis says players starting on the edge get big minutes. Similar to hooker rookie edge players are likely to peak as mid rangers, however we have had exceptions (Crichton the most notable).

    Rookie props normally bit crappy minutes off the bench and slow burn over 2-3 seasons before they are even playable in your fantasy team. As always there are a few exceptions (Haas)

    Rabs was gold for Rabbitohs info and analysis.

    ___________

    Anyway, can anybody explain the Squad Layout & Sizes for Draft Fantasy? Why isn't there a 21 squad option?

    without feelinf a need to know from Tigers forums, they would simply be mad not to give him a crack sooner rather than later. Promising signs so far in 9s and trials that they want him amongst it: For me that’s 18-21 worthy even without a prominent first TLT. Just so cheap!
