please talk me out of T-Rex all I want is 35 from him? surely he gets 60 in that back row?

rephrase - he avg 62mins last year...surely he doesn't completely flop again right...

Let's step back from Fantasy for a second, need to assess your personal financial situation and mental health.

Have you got enough money to go to weekly anger management courses when he frustates the shit out of you?
Are you happy to be on anti-depressants when he railroads your team into the ground, leaving you in tears?

If the answer is yes then go for it, mate.

In there lies the answer, undeniable he is good when he starts in the backrow and normally plays 60-80 but he never strings the games together because he is always getting moved around

I fell for it again last year....got him in when Guerra broke his jaw and was supposedly out for 7-8weeks, Aubbs had 2 scores in the 50s then dropped back to CTRS and 30s when Guerra made an early recovery

But that just tells me that he is next in line to fill the role, and it was unlucky Guerra's recovery was speedy. If Cordner has torn his pec, he will not be back for at least 8 weeks of the regular season, likely more. If Aubbs is named, the only way I see him not playing each game there is if the Roosters go on a losing streak and Robinson has to shake things up.

Peats and Sue
Smith and T-Rex

He averaged 60 mins last season. haha beat me to it! He did average 15 tackles in 60 mins so it can only go up from there!

Peats and Sue, if you have an alternative to Smith for captain

On the wing, against 3 foot wingers.

If that impresses you I'll grab my boots and we'll down the local 9s and I'll go crave up.

Going to step up a tipping comp and first try scorers league if you guys are keen, putting it in here as it gets the most traffic.

Seems like it's been all down hill since that 360 pile driver tackle.

Maubbs will still more than likely SOMEHOW end up in the centres or on the bench mate. It's just the way of things. IN SAYING THAT, with the Roosters woes and him still being DPP at 330k odd, I am quite prepared to step up and consider giving him another chance, for the 4th or 5th time

trying to fit SST in

Smith, Lichaa
Woods, Graham, Ah Mau, CWN
Merrin, SST, Rochow, Whitehead, Whithcurch, Bhana
DCE, JReyn, Hastings, Taylor
Auva'a, Copley, MCK, Henry
Gordon, Mansour, Gutherson, Mata'tai, Nuffie

Peats over Smith allows me Hurrel/Lafai over Copley so i don't have to run Copley and Gutherson in the 17 just the one so less risk
Whitehead if starting otherwise Sue

In fairness if Auva'a, Copley, Gutherson can manage 25 would be happy to run them

People considering Trex and Aubs

Is there a thread for the REAL Dream Team. ;-)
