    What do you think of my team.  Any comments would be appreciated:

    Smith, Granville
    Woods, LAM, Pauli, Welch
    Parker, JDB, Burgess, STK, MCK, Bhana
    DCE, Hastings, Taylor, Nikorima
    Copley, Auva'a, Henry, Nuffie
    Ferguson, Mansauce, Gordon, Gutherson, Mitchell

    Cheers

    - I don't see Granville improving score that much. He is an incredible Hooker but unless he is getting 80 minutes he wont be a gun.
    - I don't rate Pauli Pauli, other guys do. Eh...

    The rest of your team is solid.

    On Pauli Pauli.

    In 2014 between rounds 6 and 21, he averaged 45 minutes and 28 points (mostly off the bench, twice as starter)

    Last year he only played over 40 minutes 4 times, for an average of 27.

    Whether he can get his game time at Newcastle back up to those levels is another question, but the potential is there.
    If nothing else he has more upside than pretty much anyone else in that price range

    Thanks, Random. Granville is in there if there is no second hooker on the bench. If there is I will review.

    Granville won't get 80 IMO, at least not well into the season. I still think there is value there though. I thought I would clear my team and do a drunk version assuming Parcell and Jnik start and Holmes named at FB:

    Smith Parcell
    Fifita Woods Graham NPR
    Surgess Cartwright LAM Whitehead Pauli Benry
    DCE Hastings Taylor JNik
    Lafai Copley Auva'a MCK
    Gordon Mansour Holmes Gutherson Opacic

    Thoughts?

    Welshy wrote:played around a tad mate because i think i can get more out of my team with 2 rookie priced CTRS was in the middle or reposting my original team before i added Fergo in the CTR but will answer the questions as most are still in there and re post my team

    Lichaa avg is around the 54 mark when he plays 80, few injury affected games and some rest at the start of the season as he adjusted to big minutes, almost zero attacking stats so plenty of room for improvement in that department after a year as a full time starter if he doesn't 54 is a good return

    Ah mau averaged 50 minutes and 50 points in the last 10 rounds of 2015, again nearly all base stats 1 LB all season, no tries potential there to really stamp his mark without Merrin

    No Cordner for a big stretch, I'm backing SST to pick up some minutes he averages 50+ points when he plays over 50+ minutes, even if he doesn't go that big i figure i don't lose any cash get a few 40's but save a trade over origin where the origin roosters like Guerra miss 5 games

    Rochow averaged 34 in 2014 and 40 albeit in only 5 games last year, still pretty young, no Beau Scott and an aging Jeremy Smith, im back Rochow to go in the 40s and only priced at 30, if he only matches 2014 he still makes slow $$ and i burn a trade to shift him

    J Rey averages 45 when playing 80 in the halves with Mbye (thanks Milch) might not go that high but should get bulk KM and a leadership role

    I always think CTR is the very best place to play rookies. Basically it comes down to scoring maximums... and the centres are definitely the lowest. Particularly now with 2 CTRs.

    Anyways I think you make a lot of good points, and the selections are pretty good. Ah Mau and Liicha are better prospects than I give them credit for, particularly having looked at their numbers last year. SST is someone I must admit I didn't consider, but will now put on watchlist. Reynolds used to be a pretty handy half a few years ago in fantasy, and I do agree he's likely to go up rather than down on last years numbers.

    Stacked front row and a very good 2nd row, especially now with the news of Tapine and how it could effect Pauli.
    The whole backline is cheap and mid range which is what most are doing and it allows you the cash to get your big scorers in the forwards.
    Like you said this is assuming Parcell starts but even then I'm not sure I would run with him. No guarantee on big minutes, or even solid scoring. Hooker is also one of those positions where generally at the end of the year most teams run a reserve in that second slot as it is a high scoring and consistent position. If that's the case then you will need Parcell to make up a lot of cash and also a fair amount from cash cows to bridge the gap should Parcell not kick on.

    Shocked  dat pack!  

    This is just a personal thing, but Wade Graham started off slow Fantasy wise last year and I think the year or 2 before that as well.  I haven't checked right back but maybe see if I am wrong and there isn't a pattern of slow early season form.

    Yea he started off slow last year. I don't know what it is but I just keep picking him in all my drafts. Maybe it's personal preference as I really rate the guy, but I'm just getting a feeling he could be in for a big year as he steps up in the Cronulla pack as Gallen may see a reduction in minutes/workload

    He's a wonderful footy player; him and Cartwright are the kinds of players every team needs at least 1 of.  I had him the back half of last year and he was awesome.  Keep him in there, could come out and average 60 from the get go.  I can't pick him early on is all but will more than likely end up with him again later on.

    I think Glymin has another hamstring issue (I know he's just there to make up the numbers).  Did you want to set your Centres and WFB out again as you've made a mistake there mate.

    Basically none of your NPRs are guaranteed a playing spot. And there is also no guarantee that anyone will turn up at their price level that will play. So you run the risk of not having anyone making money outside your top 17.

    Some more questions

    And how much is Ayshford? surely he won't get a run in the warriors backline

    Any reason you are forgoing Ashley Taylor? I don't know SC prices off the top of my head, but how are Gutherson and Auvua'a priced there. Are they as cheap as they are in fantasy?

    And welcome Wilson1234.

    You have a Supercoach team. Most of us play the official NRL fantasy game. Or at least most of the discussion happens in the Fantasy thread. and the Supercoach thread is a desolate wasteland.

    There are a few differences between the games but the basics are the same. So feel free to ask questions here and people will generally help you out

    Right....feels like I brought a knife to a gun fight, ah well would still like to hear other people's opinions regardless. Ayshfords really quite cheap below mid range, same scope as B Lee or R Jennings. Saw him play at the 9s and he looked sharp not too sure whether he has a chance of getting into the side. Taylor, not a fan of the titans and I think he has as much chance of playing as barba does playing at FLB, which I'm hoping for, barba has duel position between 5/8 and fullback and so does Moylan, allows a bit of shifting if need be, should I not focus so much on duel positions? Thanks for making me feel welcomed, appreciate it

    Welcome brother. The only thing I know about supercoach is they don't reward kick metres & the emphasis is on attack so you want try scorers in your backline.
