I'm currently running:

Teddy, Hoy, Simonsson  with Niu in 18-21 for cover.

Hoy to be traded to TTrbo around rd4

That is how its looking for me although I have Simonsson instead of Niu

Basically have the same guns, seems like a lot are running very similar 5 down the line, I've got Munster in at 2nd half as well.

I think someone will end up being sacrificed though as I don't see all the cheapies coming to fruitition.

3rd MID position looks like it  is a tough one for me at the moment

Koala and Watson look good for first 2 spots

Crichton or Tohu as DPP in 14-17

If Papenhuyzen kicks goal over Munster on the weekend I think I'll drop Munster for Brooks, but otherwise not sure I can afford both Tohu and Crichton
Someone like Twal, Taukeiaho or Tino can be done.
For cheapies, there is hope Ofahangaue/Lodge/Ford/LAM/BMM look good enough to start, but I am not confident on any of those at the moment.

Even a very generous 50 average sees him making 127k over 3 rounds. He'd have to average 55 to make 150k+.

I guess that's possible starting against Bulldogs, Warriors, Tigers, but I think it's too much of a gamble.

I'm surprised there isn't more focus on whoever gets the vacant Storm wing spot.

And who will you trade Trbo to in Rd6?

I'm going Watson, Koloamatangi and Ford. Would have gone Lodge but reckon Ford has slightly better job security. The other three cheapies I do not like.

Iron Mike wrote:If taking Hoy as your 3rd WFB all it does is buy you a look at all players and you hope for a 35 average. Would be savvy to have a DPP player like Gagai in your centres just in case no1 pops up at fullback.

This is one of my main drivers behind starting with Hoy. To have a look at the options after a few rounds. He would be more like a placeholder, not a cashcow.
But saying all that TLT may present some better options

Wow. Two guns in WFB. Big call. Where are you sacrificing?

My WFB is currently Teddy, Hoppa, Moylan but will hopefully move Hoppa to the centres, TLT dependant.

What are your thoughts on Brooks? It seems quite a lot aren’t keen on him.....
