No Davey is very possible.

Then I most likely have to pick one of Gosie or L. Croker

I don't think Davey not starting would be a surprise. It would be more of a surprise if he did. Ditto Hola, although still entertaining that possibility. No Riki would be a pisser.

I personally hope he is. Would stop every man and his dog jumping on him

AFB fallen off the face of the earth?

To elaborate on Kamikamica starting, the Storm won the lot last year on the back of their insane punch from the bench, with at least two of BSmith, Tino and NAS there.

Obviously this year Cheese is starting hooker to begin with, and Tino isn't at the club. Can't see Bellamy giving up all his bench impact, so that'll be NAS's role at least while Grant's out. Still might score ok, but that's *my opinion*

Kamikamica also started prop at the beginning of last season before he got injured. Storm had everyone available at that point except Welch, but this year for Welch read Finucane.

Mbye fullback

I hope that’s not the case I have Laurie.

Fantasy aside I think Laurie has the goods and should keep the 1.

Not in my books. After watching him in that trial I really want him in my team, just not sure how at the moment - guess TLT will decide it for me aye

Fell out of my team

If someone can pick one they’re a genius!!.....

I predict we may see a trap of Curran starting and then people hop on only for him to be dropped by round 3!!

You don't post for 24hrs 

I'll take may genius status now, 


Enjoy your 24hr ban

I've already booked in leave for Thursday and Friday to spend getting my team right

Will probably start pushing this harder after teams are named, but come along to the community team and contribute.

We had a great 2019 but a poor 2020 so looking to get back on track this year.

Need some votes for a starting 21 so its a true community view

Brandon missed the first 2 rounds and NAS was coming back from a hamstring injury, so didn't get a preseason, why he started playing low minutes off the bench.

I agree with this fully. Also Eisenhuth was meant to start in the second row a few times last year but injuries let him down. I was thinking to myself Kenny might start at lock so they can keep the impact of NAS and Tui battering them off the bench with Welch J and Kbrom steadying the ship

Tino bench.

No Riki.

No Davey.

Watson bench.

If Tino is benched, I suppose that in that price range Welch potentially represents good value while Finucane is out as this forum has highlighted to me.

No Riki would pretty well screw me sideways.

I've planned for no Davey as I've found it less likely he starts over Gosiewski who you probably don't want to pick if you had a choice.

Watson benched would be a dampener but could still get some slow price rises in.

I had him in my side for a little bit but switched him to Aloiai. Then the trials happened and was keen to swap them back.

Anywho the first time in a long long time the warriors have plenty of decent forwards. Even though he’s capable of massive minutes he probably won’t get them.

Must have been feeling his hammies for 2/3rds of the season then to stay bench impact for that long. Or maybe it suited the team, idk.

I was about to suggest the team name Cherry had a Liddle Lam but I realise from the registration thread that someone beat me to it with something similar
