I'll take a punt Random...
1. Croft - will play the season. Should get good base stats on kick meters (especially when Seibold realises Milfs kicking game is average at best) and will have a hand in most our plays. Potential for TAs and LBAs. Average of 45 give or take over the season.
2.Flanagan/JMK - Expect Keary to be the dominate half. Playing alongside a bloke that can already kick and run the ball, it's hard to see him being given a lot of responsibility in his first year. JMK will get most of his stats through tackles likely, but I struggle to put a lot of faith in a bloke that was barely fit enough to make a rd1 team list. I project the pair will average high 30s to low 40s.
3. Mann/Wakenham - how long will either get honestly? Mann the more likely while playing with Pearce but underperforming Knights (if that happens) could ring in changes fast. Wakenham couldn't tackle a stationary roadworks "stop/go" operator but has atta king flair. Both could be unseated in a very short period of time.

Cheers mate I appreciate the input for this. I think I am most comfortable with Croft and then punting on one of the two cheap guys. Probably Mann at the moment just to keep the extra cash. I am warming up to JMK more though, even though i initially brushed him off.

Meaney has an 80% kicking percentage. Without fantasy goggles on I'd expect that if he's fit, he'll kick.
JMK playing hooker mate you thinking he’s playing half?Mearcats wrote:
I'm not against JMK. Has served me well before and should be serviceable again. But Foran is due back in May (apparently, albeit for 4 weeks til he's injured again) and Cogger also pushing for a spot. There's not a heap of depth at half at the dogs so you'd think one of Wakenham/JMK cements a spot and its likely to be JMK but who really knows?

Welshy wrote:JMK average at hooker playing over 70 minutes is 48. Small sample size but good numbers and available at half
I’ve got him there over Moses because the potential 45+ scores whilst making some nice cash is hard to ignore currentlyMearcats wrote:
48 ain't bad for DPP available at half but I'll still take other options over him at hooker. That being said, certainly makes him more interesting when being utilised at hlf

1. Mann - will probably make the most cash, I am not concerned about his job security with the context (coach knows him from Storm days, training the full off-season at 5/
2. Wakeham - will maybe make the most cash, more concerned about job security
3. JMK - most reliable mid-ranger, lowest ceiling but highest floor, could see him lasting to R12
4. Croft - could avg 50, could avg 35, is a gamble
5. Flanagan - don’t really see the appeal
Btw definitely think this thread isn’t making it to TLT
With him coming back from injury you aren’t concerned he just plays 60mins the first 3 round and Holland gets the last 20 whilst JMK builds his way up into it?Welshy wrote:

I do on the interchange. If I go this way it has better pay off!
