Has Dylan Walker played their before - then Schuster or Cust to halves and #14 (relieving Croker).

If they didn't have DCE, I'd lock Sea Eagles in for the wooden spoon. They still might do it tbf.

Foran and DCE are still going to be the halves. Walker playing there would leave a spot at centre, but not sure he has played FB before, certainly not recently.

It might be a fair comment but Teddy is still Teddy, and is gonna score big points anyway.

Cronk made a good point in the Allstars game that the new rules have slowed the game down into more 1 out runs into set defense. Without scrums the restarts are always taken in the middle of the field to a 12 man line and teams dont get the chance to 'strategise' in the 30 seconds a scrum takes (run set plays or set up some planned attack), so they just 'reset' their set of six with a couple of hit ups.

I guess being an allstars game (and first game of the season) didn't help, but i think teams will need to evolve and be better at thinking

on the fly

Yeah I have no doubt he'll be the top WFB scorer. More wondering if I should have him locked in to start the season or is he likely to drop some money.

It's not clear. Cotter is good in the middle playing lock or DH. He'll be on the bench for sure and you won't know whether Robson is likely to play 80 or not. My guess is Cotter will come on for Lolo and play about 20 min at lock and 10-15 min at DH. All speculation though.

By the nature of the position I would almost guarantee he is under his starting price at some point. But he might have scored 2x100's and an 80 before then. With Teddy guaranteed to play origin the question becomes if you don't start with him when would you bring him in knowing he is going to miss games mid season

Yeah, I'd said never again on Turbo twice before, but it was next to impossible to not take the punt this year with that price. I guess that sorted itself out.

Poor bastard, must be soul destroying. Wishing him a speedy recovery and some sort of fluidity in his career, but jeez it's a worrying routine.
