    I'm not looking forward to all the anticipated changes an hour out from kick off for each game. Is going to be a nightmare trying to rebalance a whole squad with each change.

    Guys that I would seriously consider if their role is upgraded in the final team, or may not consider if their role is downgraded/injured:

    Schuster - still expecting him to be on the bench, with no Cust in the 21 and no bench hooker, there is no way that Croker plays 80 minutes at hooker. Would have had him in my squad if named at 14.
    Deitz - A calf injury to Katoa, as their only other hooker, could see him start. Couldnt resist picking up a $228k starting hooker, that had a chance of getting a top 30 contract if they play a blinder.
    Fui - A late switch to starting edge would be  really difficult to work out how to fit him in at that price point. Would take quite a few changes to make it work
    Turpin - Just rearranged my team to fit him in. Paix on the bench would see a number of changes.
    Averillo - May not start, still under an injury cloud

    Will probably go into the round with a list of possible targets to bring in and swap around if required.

    I’m on Cook rather than Munster, but looking good mate.

    Interesting you’re passing on both Tino and Fifita. They look pretty good to me. Get you can’t have em all

    Hadn't considered the option of finding cash for Cook rather than Munster or Moses, think I'll go back to the drawing board on that and see if I can squeeze in one more super gun.

    Would love to have Fifita but cash doesn't allow it. Tino I think is pretty close to his priced average with <5 points upside

    Lol.

    He's probably 50/50 to be in my 18-21. At the moment i need mid coverage so he isnt there.

    I dont have much problem picking him though. Think hes better than some of the cheap bench options that require some mental gymnastics to justify

    Food for thought...

    Cook
    Crichton Watson Lodge
    Fifita Riki
    Cleary Moses
    Walker Roberts
    Papman Moylan Hoy

    Turpin Liddle Lam Gosi
    Ogden Averillo Laurie Niu



    No Teddy but do have Fifita, just so you don’t bust yourself trying ALL of Cook, Cleary Moses Crichton, Ted

    Dietz is a 26yo dummy half that the Bulldogs had to get an exemption to play. BestNSW cup season cup avg is 33. Nobody should be looking at him as a fantasy option. Great story though

    Probably not a lot of upside (although by memory didn't he have an injury affected game or two??) but as solid as a rock.

    He killed it to start last year, then got injured, and when he came back from injury he only averaged 46.

    So you are taking a gamble that he'll go back to that big minute role that he started last year with.

    Is it possible he'll end up doing lots of work in the middle?

    On the Dogs pack

    a) Will Napa get a starting gig at some point or is he considered bench prop now?

    b) When Thompson comes back, is he going to displace Ogden or Hetherington?

    Its possible, something like:
    - Jones to edge
    - Barnett to lock
    - Watson to hooker
