I feel he will take a bit of time to get the confidence back and will only average around 30 (for a good part of the season). See Marsters as better value if he starts and you only want to spend that much.
Bird said it himself that he was nervous and he is no-way near the same player as he was before injury. Will take some time.

By replacing Turbo in my WFB 3rd position with Hoy, I agree it's taking a risk that Ponga will return early, I can shift Grant to Cook and end up with all of Cook / Angus / DFifi/ Cleary / Teddy in my team.
And still retain $187k ITB ??
How is this possible.

Just as a general statement, I'm sure bathrooms are slippery even if you're a pro athlete

John Simon almost lost a toe slipping in post-match shower back in his Steelers days. Sliced his foot on a tile.

Harper has the potential to be a gun fullback. Would have him in my team for sure at center.

He's quite a good pick if he does, and even with mid 40s minutes he can average in the 40s, priced at 31

You were obsessed with him last season when he put two good scores together.

It's only 3-4 games though.

For me, this injury has just delayed me getting Turbo by about one month.

Yep whichever of my WFB cows fails will be gone for Turbo once he is fit*

This does put Hoy under serious considerations

I think it's at a point with Turbo that you can't say it's only 3-4 games.  Really have to worry about his long term prospects

I don't really like picking Hoy with his known end date as a starter. But I also currently have Moylan there at a similar price, and that's gross.

If the Broncos could just put my interests ahead of theirs and pick Oates ahead of Riki indefinitely, that would do nicely.

Was thinking how this year is a little odd for Oates to actually make the move to forwards when our outside back quality is at an all time low.

Hes had a couple of poor seasons but i still think our side looks better if Oates was named on the wing.
