Thanks mate. Will have to chuck him into my spreadsheet and see what pops out.

Hopefully you don't have any holes in that spreadsheet.......

And the answer is yes to JMK

Thinking just starting with Walters and swap them when grant arrives.

Downside of this is Walters scores you 20, you waste a trade swapping to Grant and you have to live with your Winger who netted a massive 9 points against the worst defence in the league, while you trade out your other bomb.

I've rated him basically all preseason as you likely can expect much less downward variation in scores given he has much more reliable base of tackles at HOK playable at HLF in comparison to other mid-range HLFs (Croft, Flanagan) possibly having base of KM being split with other players

Probably not going to have super high ceiling and may not consistently outperform price by 10+ points but has super reliable floor

Tempted to start with Grant in my NPR. Wild punt but could pay off.

I've noticed a lot of similar teams on here, but I guess that's just us right? The main differences seem to be
Friend or no Friend
Taumalolo or no Taumalolo
Moses or Cleary
Watkins or no Watkins

Personally I'm a Friend, Tolo, Moses, no Watkins kinda guy

Surely there are no friends on this site!

I’m not Rabbs, but you’re a hypocrite. Like a little bunch of schoolgirls in here. And you’re a mod? Some community you have here. I see someone else got bullied out of here last night as well. Just lol. Carry on children.

Hilarious to present Rabbit as someone on the receiving end of bullying, he was always the one delivering it.

Would you be doing this while still starting with Walters?

I personally think this is a bad idea; however, I do see the positives and negatives. I would rather take a gamble on 4 cows and hope 2-3 out of the 4 go gangbusters in R1 and whatever cows doesn't fire you can trade to Grant come R2 once the swap is concrete.

I have been considering running a halves combo of JMK+Mann/Walters for a bit and assuming he is good to go then it looks to be on
Bang for buck they seem alright and you would think a floor of minimum 80pts is very achievable

Combined average of 95 if you use Mann's small range of 5 games with tries..
Worst case this isn't bad for just over a 60pt investment

Wouldn't start with Walters.

What sort of cover do you have in the forwards?

I feel super out of touch with who are the flavours of the week. In need of TLT so I can finalise my team.

Seems like JMK has massively jumped into a lot of peoples considerations.

Who are any other current flavours and why?

Something like this on the fly @Soylentgreen

Friend
Haas Carrigan
Taumalolo Leilua Williams
JMK Mann
Shibasaki Lomax
Papenhuyzen Drinkwater Aekins

Knight Koro Brailey Levi
Musgrove Walters Rudolf Luai

Double Koro, in case one gets injured?

Great news about jmk, but means averillo won’t be starting I guess, with Meaney back potential trap avoided I guess

I can't read the article but the link says it all I guess.

He should get DPP after TLT then too.

I was hoping Meaney would return Rd 2 and it would catch a few people.

It's the victim mentality of someone with narcissistic personality disorder.
