    1. Obviously with all these popular centres dropping off, the one who is meant to be temporary will end up holding his spot all season. That’s just science.
    2. Even at 3-4 weeks, he’s a decent cow. Should make 100-130k in 3 weeks. Just like J Hopoate... I didn’t get him, so stopped following, but I assume that’s working well.
    3. Why are people racing to get Best? You either think he’s a gun based on scoring 2 tries per game for 2 games, which is pretty crazy, or you plan to sell him later. I’d rather spend 110k less on someone I plan to sell later.
    4. An “elite” centre will drop below 500k at some point, so I don’t wanna right now with Mitchell, WHop, Staggs
    5. YOLO, season over anyway, Mad Monday etc.

    This is a much more compelling argument for a player then I usually see here - what could go possibly go wrong!

Lee & Vunivalu who aren't great defenders/tacklers & the Knights will be focusing their attack down that edge so Best should get plenty of ball. Also this is Ponga's preferred edge to attack & he'll be feeding Best.

    Yeah running off Ponga wont be a bad thing! Compare that to Crichton, pretty much every time the panthers go left it goes it Kikau and thats it.

    Luke to Broncos really makes me wish I hadn't just bought Paix Sad

    I guess this is karma for me getting the price rises out of Capewell instead of buying him this week.

My absolute best hope is 950. I will be ecstatic to get over 900, and even more ecstatic when I finally piss off Drinkwater!

    I'm probably not the worst, but I've gotten some great scores in my backs this week

    8 positives to go with 9 negatives, plus he definitely had at least 3 missed tackles from the "highlights" I just watched. One for the ages

    Is it ok to sell Guler? I'm already cross at myself for not selling Drinkwater because of what he might score vs Warriors

    just some good news for all you Paix owners Rolling Eyes

    What role was Luke expecting at the Dragons?

    Surely at the Broncs he’s only 20 mins on the bench, whether it’s Paix or Turpin. Which won’t affect fantasy scoring

    Fantasy goggles off if Luke is anything near his peak he is miles better than both Paix and Turpin. On current form he is easily better than Paix and will steal minutes from Turpin

    This. Brings experience too.

    Hes not the saviour but I think he'll play a part in our 17 regularly.

    Turpin honestly isnt that good. I like him, but hes not the long term solution

    Yep. Broncos lacking experience and leadership. Good pick up. Can't see him playing only 20mins off the bench.
