He's already got dpp and can't get another one. Unless fanhub change the rules again.

I filled out my side and have 320k left. Doing something wrong for sure

If you have I’m copying

I was considering using to try and turn Hoy into RTS and get a back 3 I could run until after origin then upgrade RTS - Ponga

Never had Hoy. Seems like a trap

How many guns have you guys got?

Depends if you call them guns or super cows

I dont have tedesco which is probably the big thing (got papy) ,and i dont have a "gun" hook. Angus, yeo, cleary, fifita, papy. Im flexible on yeo, am keen on him, but hes first out if i go teddy.

Not locked in atm will have a proper think tomorrow.

Off the bat, 320k isnt really enough to turn the cows into someone considerably more useful

Could just turn milford into munster but i feel like being an idiot and picking the milf. (Have cleary and lam as starting halves)

I've Koloa in my team should I keep him or Host. I'm happy with my side has 114k left

Slightly better JS with Avo and Niu???

I had Koro, Crichton, Matterson, DFifi, Munster, Teddy and Papy but I swapped Koro for Turpin for some cash generation

Only dropped two of my squad because of TLT. Tino and Stefano. Titans have six middle forwards, all of whom (except Lisone) can do decent minutes. We know Holbrook likes Peachey on for major minutes, so with a hooker on the bench it's hard to see Tino getting over 50 mins. Was hoping for a bench like Sami/Peachey/Joliffe/Lisone.

Stefano might be a slow burn, but again I don't like the bench composition for his minutes.

Currently brought Turpin in for Tino and Fui for Stefano. Not massively happy about 1) having a 339k player in my 18-21, 2) having another Bronco

Is Turpin actually any good? Is he a better buy than Josh Hodgson playing 80 for a leading team?

Seems like Bird and Peachey have become must-haves.

The only others on the bench for the titans are two in the prop rotation and an HOK who will share minutes with Rein.

It would not surprise me to see Bird start at LOCK or be there quite soon with that Dragons line up.

Averillo on the bench and there is CTR set for the year

Niu has looked good at times but hard to see too many attacking opportunities for that broncos backline

Isn’t Hodgson best ever average 48 mate? He’s a missed tackle machine these days I was looking at him yesterday, another year older and another big injury

Yeah no Teddy would free up some. I was warming to the Milf, but I've replaced him with Turpin, haven't actually analysed that, just got wrapped up in the hysteria. Will have to have a proper look as you say. Yeah five guns also for me, seems to be about standard (Angus, Fifita, Cleary, Pappy, Teddy)

True, although his WFB/CTR DPP is slightly better for my side. Leaning toward skipping Hoy.

I'd take a 48 average priced at 37. What's Turpin's best average over a full NRL season at hooker...?

Undecided. Hodgson misses loads of tackles but sets up loads of tries. Currently have Turpin but can smell, if not Danny Levi, Michael Lichaa.

So would I mate but I’m doubting that especially with Hav and Starling able does he get 80 long term. Plus he’s got Georgie Williams not Sam Williams/Frawley taking assists. I’d happily take Turpin being Lichaa in fantasy terms

Landed on the fabled 0k

Brailey
Crichton, Welch, Watson
Fifita, Riki
Cleary, Brooks
Roberts, Bird
Teddy, Pap, Hoy

Lodge, Turpin, Liddle, Laurie

Averillo, Moylan, Niu, Stefano

For those playing fantasy fantasy, I'm your man for league 12

31K left over.  Like it except for the EMG of course, but still okay.

Very nice team! What's the thinking with Hoy in emg?

TU: cook + moylan
TD: fogarty + host

Thanks mate.  Half cover really, that's all at this stage.  I'm second guessing him however.  Might go Croker instead, even though I've talked shit about him.
