    Except that Young is the established holder of the spot (based on end of season minutes). But for some reason everyone thinks the CHN was going to take it. CHN compared to Young has done F all to warrant a starting spot. It blows my mind that he is spoken of starting ahead of young.

    If Young starts as edge and keeps that 80 minute spot for the season, I think he will score higher than his starting 2RF average. All of those games were earlier in the season when Raiders were struggling just to get a team on the field. Later in the season (when he wasn't 80 minute edge), we saw what a damaging runner he can be.

    Rounds 6 to 14 - 0 line breaks, 0 tries, 9 tackle breaks
    Rounds 15 to 20 (off the bench in all except round 20) - 4 line breaks, 4 tries, 15 tackle breaks

    Could be similar to David Fifita for $100k less as a keeper edge without Origin.

    Could be wrong here, but I think the raiders had a few outside back issues towards the end that moved players like whitehead to ctrs, and moved players like young to an edge rather playing the middle? I base this on my shitty memory though so take with a grain of salt.

    Fwiw I reckon

    Papa, lui, horse, James, tapine all rotate in the middle. Young and whitehead on the edges. Whitehead player 80mins, young plays 60, chn plays 20. This is all dependent on form obviously

    Raiders have great matchups to start the season Tigers, Sharks, Warriors, Titans.
    Would be likely up against Blore in round 1 in his first start, to kick off some attacking momentum into the season.

    Surely Haas has to at least be fined (maybe he has been and I’ve missed it).

    If not a 4 game suspension surely a couple of weeks......

    In the heat of the moment, they arent thinking about repercussions anyway. Dickheads will keep acting that way regardless.

    Inside word from a couple of Dragons mates is Feagai is training at centre.

    Davey is front runner for the Manly edge spot.

    Ford I’m not so sure on.

    But yeah I think I’ll sit on that draft for now.

    Thanks for the feedback bro.
    Hopefully Feagai is better than the last base price Dragons CTR

    Also make sure you pick the right Feagai brother

    It's a common theory on here that a player would not change clubs if he wasn't going top play first grade for the new club.

    I don't always agree with that theory, but on a related note, I will list below every round in 2020 in which Hudson Young started as an edge forward ahead of Corey Harawira-Naera


    End of list.

    The list is equally long for CHN starting as edge forward ahead of Young Smile

    There's still a month and a trial to get through before the season starts - if Moylan's fit, then probably worth having - even if he's an expensive NPR.

    Isaako is probably still an alternative. RTS is always there or there abouts for $200k cheaper than Tedesco (and probably a little bit underpriced, plus seems to be good at avoiding injury across a season).
    I think there's an outside chance the tigers snare Laurie before the season commencement (if Panthers can fit Momirovski into their cap). Whether there's enough time for him to grab the FLB spot is another thing.

    Hearing Benji say that Latrell is at the ground training at 6.30am seems like a good "house down" story. Fitness has always been one of those big questions people have on Latrell

    If he's at the ground at 6:30 in the morning it's because he wants to be first in line at the buffet. His weight looks awful at the moment, he seriously needs to get an nutritionist in his ear during the off season.

    For a pro athlete that could be absolutely anything he doesn't look after himself well enough.

    He's clearly got a problem, especially with police.

    He needs a big suspension, club or otherwise for this, to me that shows signs of potential domestic violence as well. That's the mentality he's got. Freddy should stand him down from Origin as well. Draw a fucking line in the sand for these idiots.

    100% agree. He seems very immature for his age (21), and needs to grow the fuck up.

    I will target the first bye round strongly not so much the second as I’ll wanna start focussing on the run home and not burning too many precious trades.

    Still I think it’s best not to worry about origin til round 7 or 8 and start preparing then as the first 7-8 rounds injuries and shit will happen anyway...... I think @MTB said that as well before and I listened intently to it, who wouldn’t take the gurus advice lol....... you’d be crazy not too if you wanna try become an elite player!
