Throw a dart and see where it lands tbh.

Davey seems to be the only one with good job security that will play good minutes but you need 2-3 cheap forwards so who do you pick.

I know it will most likely backfire but I think I am still going cheap in the centres with Niu and Averillo. Only top price centre I am interested in is Aitken or Bird for slightly under 400K...

I'm surprised that so many are keen on Roberts. He's missed a lot of football in the last two years.

Those quotes do seem promising for Momo

Without goalkicking though, not sure if he has enough value to be better than Hoppa/Roberts/Bird

But knows how to sniff out a try and playing at Panthers should help, so definitely on the watchlist.

Priced at 25 he averaged 34 last year (only 5 games) and  39 in 2019 (excluding 5 minute injury game)

As long as he's fit I back him for decent scores.
Obviously fitness some concern, especially in a fantasy team that will also have Jacob Liddle, Tommy Turbo and maybe Matt Moylan

I think Cleary should do a good job of getting Momo decent ball and also he can set up some tries for his wing partner To'o.

This kind of makes it seem Naden almost walks back into that centre spot after a month?

White Lightning wrote:I always look at my ctr's as a combo re points scoring. As long as both individual scores total 50+ points then I'm happy. I'll be going Averillo to start because if he starts in the hlf's he'll easily score over 25 points. My 2nd ctr is currently J. Bird.

not sure what to do with all my extra free time this year...

Take out goal kicking (which he probably won't have) and it drops to 33

He also averages 1.5 Try Assists a game in that sample which i am guessing he won't sustain.

He has base stats of about his priced average, so need him to have some attacking spark to make money
