    I’ve really tried to not select as mainstream as some and am tossing up between tino and no tino:

    McCullough
    Lodge Watson Crichton
    Riki Harris
    Lam cleary
    Averillo bird
    Moylan papi Laurie
    Jbrailey Turpin liddle tino
    Ramsey leniu farmersuli gosiewski.

    Thoughts?

    If Lam sucks, the trade is likely down to Walker

    Great 1-17 not sure about your 18-21
    I rate Leniu, who I think will have a break-out year, but I'm not sure if the others are good cows

    One thing to note about samey-ness of squads.

    This forum is not always reflective of the game as a whole (even amongst only serious players)

    As a group, we've mostly ditched Cook over the past week or so, but Cook still has 18% ownership, and that isn't all casuals.
    I also think we are also softer on Tino than the rest of fantasy as a whole.

    Just 1 month ago we had a plethora of edge options that have all disappeared (Gilbert, Blore, Davey, BMM, CHN, Ford) and having them all available would have made nice variety. Maybe the first few rounds will shake things up enough to give us lots of variety again.

    I'd say he already is better than Ponga tbh. I view Papi as a top 3/4 fullback in the game

    I wanna pick the Milf too, but I'm much more confident with Bird and Roberts at centre as opposed to those two/three, whereas I can find a suitable replacement for Milf on the bench which isn't too bad.

    Bird and Roberts are who I got rid of (not just for Milford - Welch too) - I agree that they will be better, but I don't have a huge amount of faith in them either TBH. It's basically coming down to Milford/Niu vs Bird/Hoy.

    I think people are overestimating him.

    Priced at 40 for a long term hooker average of 43 (in 60 minutes)

    Sure there is no bench hooker this week, but what about by round 3?

    That said, he is still in my team

    I see a lot of upside for Collins. Perhaps as JWH is older he will be used as an impact player off the bench. JWH averaged 48 mins last year, with SST assumed to play ~55 mins do we think Collins can play ~50 min? Small sample size but he averaged 56.8 in 52.5 mins last year. He is priced at 37 so there is some risk.

    Fifita will drop off once Radley and Verrills are back

    Haha yes

    He's surrounded by a great team so he should be ok fantasy wise. I picked him over Milf at a similar price because of where the Broncos are at at the moment. I couldn't carry both in the team without having to carry some cheap questionable cows on the bench

    I don't trust Roosters forwards.

    Collins will no doubt put up some big scores. But also JWH will probably start a few games, and he'll get a bunch of rests.

    More than any other team, with Roosters forwards you can't just look at 50+ minutes, or 60+ minutes to try and predict an average. You can pretty much guarantee there will be some low minute games in there as well.

    Could line up Collins for a run of weak games, when they tend to rest the starters and he is the biggest beneficiary.

    Robbo rotates rest too much to rely on Roosters forwards for me.

    Well well well I’ve just caught up!

    Now it’s decisions decisions decisions!

    I see Magoulias is in the Sharks 17, don’t think I can go there again though!

    It really is slim pickings on the edge for cheaper players!

    Gosiewski and Croker yuck but I think I have to pick one of them.

    My mind is all over the place.

    I’m just gonna go back and stare at the teams!

    You had better not cheat on the # of drafts you've made, it's actually highly entertaining watching it go up day by day
