Very surprised by this.

Me too, I thought Bren would have been Moylan's bitch. Not the other way round

Who does everyone think us next in line in the Dogs back line.

If I do go with a WFB not named round 1, I think betting on an injury to the Morris twins is as good a bet as any.

Brad Abbey and Kerrod Holland seem best bets, anyone else I should be considering?

Probably Chase Stanley. Backup forward will be Lloyd Perrett and after these 2 then the cash cows

Been playing around with a team that has a very light-on WFB/CTR in exchange for more guns:

Smith, Segeyaro
Douglas, Ah Mau, Alvaro, Nuffie
Parker, Merrin, Tapau, Rochow, Chee Kam, Nuffie
DCE, Milford, Hastings, Taylor
Lafai, Auva'a, Henry, Nuffie
Mann, Copley, Gutherson, Nuffie, Nuffie.

Sleepers in the front row might go alright.  Is Douglas expected to perform better this year, and I think he may be suspended for a game or 2.  Not sure for what, but I thought I read it the other day.

There's an article that mentions it in projected team lists, but I couldn't find any mention of it elsewhere and someone else on here didn't think he was actually suspended. I just think he's under-rated - with Myles and White gone, and only really Shillington (who's not a noted worker) coming in, I see him being busy. Also, is now the captain.

True, a lot of changes to the pack and you've gotta respect the bloke as a hard nut.

Im all good with starting Auva'a as one of my ctr's but that back 3 would frustrate me!

More than likely chicken out and run with Slater/Gordon in there. I briefly flirted with the idea of Matai

EDIT: The Slater + Gordon combo really needs to have a nickname. Ambulance Chasers? Personal Injury Claim? Class Action?

Hey fellas. any news on Danny Alvaro. I know he made his big scores late on due to injury, but could he get some game time with all the Eels big men back for the start of the season.

On the radar.

I know I'm not to keen on any Warriors players but one player I really respect is Matulino. At least he's consistently good & performs fantasy wise unlike most of his team mates. He may even sneak into my team on the sly. He has the motor to be able to play big minutes as well. I've also decided to get the strongest 17 I can so I'm taking the balanced approach with my team meaning I'll sacrifice a gun to be able to get two mid range players.

Well Mitchell Pearce's season is over, and so are the roosters.
