This. Hayne always copped it for the same thing but Inglis is just as bad imo.

So Farah + Brooks are lazy as weĺl? Explains why they were so shit last year.

I agree Inglis may have had a poor season in his own terms. But Inglis has consistently shown he can be quiet and not put in the full effort. He does it even in Origin he will be quiet for the entirety of games and then do something magical.

Like I said I am not saying that last season he wasn't affected by injury and the Rabbitohs own problems. He still can be a lazy player some weeks.

I made a fair bit last year playing sports fantasy pros last year which is same concept as money ball. Never deposited money but the free contests are great

Well things have really taken off!
What's everyone thinking with their HLFs.  Tempting to run with 1 gun, Hastings, Taylor, nuffie.
No mid rangers really appeal, did have my eye on Roberts.
Think im leaning towards DCE, A Reynolds, Hastings, Taylor.  Then I can combine Hastings and Taylor to get my 3rd gun half.
Would mean weakening the forwards to start with.

I'm thinking DCE, Maloney, Hastings, Taylor

But then again I have no idea what I'm doing

My halves at this stage are 2 Mid-Priced guys + Hastings, Taylor.

Mullen, Maloney, Foran, Roberts, Milford (Because of you guys.) are all in the mix.

Think i may back track on my Tyrone roberts comments made earlier in the thread...@ $300,000 and main field general may have to take a closer look to pair him with DCE

Yeah, although they did actually have the minutes data last year, for some reason they never added it into their stats page until now.

DCE/A. Reynolds and Foran/Roberts. Leaning more towards Reynolds and Foran at this stage.

I do like the idea of running with DCE and Hastings or Taylor and stacking the forwards and hookers.

Yeah I love stacked hookers.

If Parcell starts for Manly he might be too hard to pass up as a cash cow

True then you have to decide if he is last years Moseley or Lichaa, If he starts is he playing 40 or 60 minutes?

I thought it was midgets?

Maybe it is stacked midgets!

Also have the return of the Gun Backs team this year.

HOK: J. Granville (M. Parcell)
FRF: J. Graham, J. Trbojevic (NPR, NPR)
2RF: Elliot Whitehead, Joseph Tapine, Robbie Rochow (NPR, NPR, NPR)
HLF: J. Thurston, D. Cherry-Evans (NPR, NPR)
CTR: C. Lawrence, L. Brown (NPR, NPR)
WFB: R. Tuivasa-Scheck, S. Radradra, J. Tedesco (NPR, NPR)

Not sure about the 2RF, but should have enough rookies to fill spots and there is some cash left over.

love the look of that lad! I would dump JT for Arey and chuck the cash onto J turbo or Rochow

Been looking at Mbye - he really stank it up to end the year

Last 4 scores were 19, 15, 40, 9. Then a 12 and a 16 in the finals.

Wasn't subbed in any of those games. Up until that point he'd been averaging just over 40 in the halves, then 6 games of tripe.

Anyone remember what caused that - Dogs won 5 of those 6 games.
