I've seen some absolutely wild predictions of props moving to second row for a spell, props playing 80 minutes and other big minute predictions. It's round one and people are going to struggle for fitness and therefore the minutes they play round 1-3 won't be the same they play long term. Think long time and think about actual rugby league play not just fantasy.

Haas was playing 60+ when he was fasting during Ramadan I don't think he's going to be impacted by humid conditions

That said I don't think he's going to play 80 either. More likely to be 70-ish mins

Unlikely I'd say Katoa comes off bench & replaces him during first half and Blair shifts to middle with Katoa edge

It's also super short term even with their injuries as they have Tevaga, Curran, Paasi due back within 5 rounds

Thank you for your advice.

Lachlan, Locked in.

Do Walters & Reynolds split minutes - 40 mins each?
End of the day they are both make shift hookers

but Payne Haas is my captain, so he'll play 80 every week

I'm really tempted by Holmes. Reckon the Cowboys are going to do well this year and I can see him getting plenty of points if he's goalkicking

If you start Walters in your halves you're kinda effed if the trade goes through though.. suddenly need to find a starting half

Move Drinkwater up to HLF and trade a dud NPR/CTR/WFB for a performing one?

1 easily for me. 
Im not comfortable starting the year with a NPR, especially this year with the base price options not exciting me.

Technical point - Grant is not an NPR - he's on the bench for Melbourne this week. Every chance he has risen in price if/when the swap happens.
May or may not have usable scores in the meantime

Good point made before as well - if you start Walters at HLF, make sure you have someone else who can play there, as if you need to swap him to Grant, then you are down HLF cover.

90, this week

FWIW i don't think he will play 80. No doubt he's going to play big mins though.

Please come and have a vote in the community team makeup

even if you just whack in your current team draft and chuck some ratings next to them - more data the better to make sure we get a consensus good team

BREAKING: Huge drama at @brisbanebroncos with fullback Jack Bird going down with what looked like a serious knee injury. He was in a lot of pain and absolutely filthy. Left the field screaming expletives #NRL @FOXSportsNews

Isaako get back in my team!!!

Really bad news for him though. If it is serious will be nearly two season no footy.

A quick analysis of how I feel about players in my team after TLT.

Starters

Friend - Gone cold on him and considering dropping him and playing Walters in my 17 and upgrading somewhere else

Haas - Been my Captain since day 1 and haven't had a doubt since.

Ese'Ese - Felt hed get the start under a new coach and getting lock is just icing on the cake.

Su'A - See him grabbing 50 1 week then getting 20 the next. not sold on him whatsoever.

Williams - Should be in every team, If he's not, get him in!

Fifita - Too scared not to start with him even if it means getting lolo.

Moses - Still tossing up between him and Cleary. Moses not playing origin probably secures him for me.

Wakeham - Not sold on him but prefer him over Mann at a similar price

Lomax - People have gone cold on him but he is a fullback available at centre and he goal kicks at the least he averages 35.

Burns - Cutprice keeper and POD, will be a huge difference-maker for me and anyone else who owns him.

Brimson - Proven he can score well at fullback now he just doesn't have to be this years Dylan Edwards.

Papy - picks himself really.

Kennedy - Had Aekins for a while but would rather have Kennedy for 100k less for 2 fewer weeks of play.

Bench

Koro - Probably gets 80, there is no way he leaves my team

Carrigan - With a week broncos bench the starters will really benefit. also, see Carrigan being a cutprice keeper if all goes to plan

Leilua - If he gets 80 then he's in for sure. But with Lawrence on the bench 80 may turn into 50 where I think Hess would be the better option for cheaper.

Brailey - Hes a great cash cow who will score you 40 in about 55 minutes a night

NPR

Walters - will enjoy his price rises and trade him to grant when/if the swap goes through

Luai - Cheap starting half, Cant see myself starting without him

Wiliame - Yay a base price wfb/ctr was scared one wasn't gonna pop up.

JTB/Rudolph/Musgrove - Not a lot of cheap options. Out of these will probably start JTB as he is probably the first guy off the bench for the warriors forward pack.

Other peoples opinions would be much appreciated.
