I'm open to suggestions for the one player from each team I should target.
Obviously, Cleary for Panthers, or go with Yeo and play C roulette?
DFifi for Titans (or do we run Tino??)
Grant, Pappy or Munster from the Storm?
Ponga, Watson, JBrailey for the Knights?
DCE, Davey, Turbo or someone else at Manly?
Bird, Macca, Ford for Dragons?
Cook, ARey, Koala for the Bunnies
Haas should be a lock for Donkeys, but a cheap Milf, or Oates on the Edge, Riki, Isaako or Niu??
Teddy, Lam, Angus for Roosters
Lolo, Gilbert, Hola, Val, Robinson at the Cows?
BMM, LAM, Tohu, Egan, CHT, RTS, Blore from the Warriors
Who do I pick from the Dogs?
Raiders? Big Pappa, Curtis, Hodgson, Simonsson?
Brooks, Twal, Laurie, Roberts, Liddle at the Tigers?
Eels - Brown, Matters, DBrown??
Finally, who do I pick at the Sharks? Moylan? S-J? Rudolf? AFifi (coconut move)  

Don't be shy, which left of field selection can I make to build a team that follows the rules?

Chances Roosters lose a couple and Lam gets dropped?

Lam, Watson, Riki/Oates*, Liddle

Had a good look at JFH, thought he had gone closer to 60 previously. Over 60 minutes and his average is 60. 54 last season under same circumstances. If he gets those BIG minutes all season with no Tamou he is value

Was a standout at Lock over the backend of last year;
Averaged 62.1 across 7 games (including 3 finals games) from 52.6 minutes.
That run included 3 tries and two games where he managed 9TB's (from memory he probably picked up about 6TBs just with one of those tries!).

I think I may have already talked myself out of it as he'll probably settle in the 50's somewhere.

Anyway, priced at 49, and while Horsburgh might be a threat once he returns from club-imposed suspension, it seems likely that it's Tapine's spot to lose.

I'm semi-interested. His scores are Tolmanesque in their all-baseness but he seems like he should be breaking more tackles than he does and comes *so close* to scoring tries.

Could go SST for 10k more, but my feeling is that JFH plays big minutes with both Tamou and Tetevano gone.
