Also the team he was playing for was worse than the 2020 broncos, wasn't easy to shine.

Is that even possible?!

As uninspiring as that is, it should be noted I think he was only 17/18 playing q cup, and he’s still very young so personally I’m not counting him out just yet

I guess I should mention I'm not counting him out as a good footballer in a year or two, just don't think he'll score well to begin this season.

They were pretty bad that year. Sunny Coast beat htem 72 to 4. Harry Grant (for Sunny Coast) played 80 mins, 34 fantasy points, only 22 tackles haha

May be better for me to run Avo and Simonsson in emergencies then..

would you go back to the start of 2020 and pick Jack Williams and Danny Levi if i told you to?

I think Hutchison being named ahead of Walker for this week's trial is a really good sign for Lam's job security. Walker isn't close to him on the pecking order.

Agreed that Lam is definitely the first pick 2nd half at the Chooks, at least to start the season; my issue is how many kick metres is he likely to take? And, how many scoring plays ... Keary is pretty much their go-to player now.
If CHT is partnered with Niko, you'd have to think he has a 10 point bump in him, especially with a stronger pack to lead around.

I'm gonna say yes. Yes he would

As long as MS didn't come along 5 mins later and name two alternatives

and then you didn't name Levi and Williams again....

and then someone else named.....

and then.....

People were saying the same thing about Luai last year. I think that in a top team he's going to do fine regardless of who he's next to.

I'm about to get Kayo and a VPN. Looking at around $35 per month for both services

To get just NRL and Cricket in NZ we need to pay at least $83 per month for Sky with Sport plus Spark Sport. Total rip off.

Chris Garry on the Broncos Weekly POD today, some notable points
- Riki has the right edge spot locked down.
- Dogs have offered basically double Brisbane's offer for Piakura, he's waiting to see how things pan out this year (as are a lot of Broncos players)
- Isaako fittest at the club.
- negotiating with Capewell for next year but capewell wants a bit too much at the moment.

I have my pre TLT team stacked with HLFs atm.

(C)leary, Brooks, Lam, CHT, Milf, Averillo, Moylan

On the back of that unnecessarily snarky comment by me....@rabbits21 the point is that, as we have seen over the last few weeks, it is virtually impossible to predict what roles/minutes/future security of any marginal cheapies will have until the season starts (or a real TLT happens and even then....).

By all means share opinions, create drafts, look at team structures using players of different value, experiment with who you want but locking anyone who isn't an established first grader in at this point is a fools errand.
Wait for TLT and then take a punt on whoever tickles your fancy.
People can give you their opinions but they don't necessarily have any more insight than you do. You know a bit about league, don't be afraid of your own choices.

Still love the enthusiasm by the way.

Riki and Watson in race to be most owned player it seems.

Also, there needs to be fantasy points for being fittest in the team, training houses down etc.

I basically flip between having about 6 hookers and 4 halves, or 6 halves and 4 hookers.

I’m tipping Keaon Koloamatangi will be very popular after tomorrow night .

Are there any trials tonight?

Howdy Y'all,

I plan to get round to posting now after having signed up a few years back. After having failed to sign a baseball team for beautiful Albuquerque, New Mexico, I've settled on relocating a failed small-town fantasy team from the backwoods of America instead for the 2021 season. They'll play whatever I tell 'em to play. I hope everyone likes south-western ingredients...

The Mayor of Albuquerque.
