Rate My Team

After a year's hiatus [I haven't looked at anything Fantasy related since Rnd 26 2014] , I just decided [well it took me 4hrs anyway] to throw a Team together - anyone care to put a sword through it ?

Smith, Lichaa
Surgess, Packer, Ah Mau, Gavet
Merrin, Sue, Rochow, Aubbs , J Saifiti, Bhana
A Reynolds, Hastings, Barba Nikorima
C Law, Lelulia, Gutherson, Henry
Gordon, Mansour, Fergo, Feeney, Latrell
$4k left.



Are there any cow hookers this year ?
Are there any full-season rookies starting ? [I've only gone off Team Lists so don't know if the rooks I've picked are just injury fill-ins or starters]
Oh, and what's the consensus on James Roberts ?

Cheers.

Crocker, Roberts, Henry, Green

Who convinced you to do that?

I'd try to have at least 1 gun back rower in there - The group of Rochow, Turner, Mataora, Aubusson and Lawrence is where I'd try to move some parts around and see if you can land on a combo with a star back rower, even if it's a cheaper one like Taupau/JDB/Gillett/Cooper.

Cheers for the advise - moved out Carty (??? over minutes) and Mataora, brought in Kapow and Auva'a for now via DPP swap.

If I move a few pieces around could bring someone in that'll actually play r1 instead of Auva'a, but i'm pretty confident he'll nab a backline spot

Alright I'm set.... I think
C. Smith, J. Segeyaro (r)
Surgess, LAM, K. Evans (r) T. Grant (r)
CP13, E. Whitehead, B. Cartwright, J. Safiti, D. Bhana, V. Leuluai
DCE, Hasting Taylor (r), Jikorima
Aubo, Littlejohn, Benry, Gutherson
Mansour, Gordon, Barba, Feeney, Mitchell

Although if I drop Smith to Lichaa I can then go Littlejohn to Leilua/Claw and not have to worry about that centre spot next round...

Hey DL, good to see you back in Fantasy. Sure next year you'll back in the top half of our league groups, probably in the same group as me as per usual!

JNiko is a good option to think about as a hooker (questions over Parcell, Cherrington) plus Ash Taylor could take the half spot if you make that move. Not sure about the security of Gavet with Vete lurking there on the bench so could be a risk there

Suggestions would be appreciated.

You've got Woods twice, and I literally have no idea who Hebert is. Knicks is Nikorima? Otherwise it's ok although I don't know about the Cherrington pick

- Cherrington is a risk, it could pay off for you but persionally too much of a risk for mine.
- As Nick said Woods is listed twice..
- I don't think Moeroa will score much better than last season. Ma'u and Scott are 80 minute players and Watmough could be back as soon as next week. As well as Edwards on the bench.
- K. Nikorima? Noo you want J. Nikorima.. Only J. Nikorima.
- Hebert? Also concerns around Davis' job security. McDonald will be back next week for the Titans.

- You need a better CTR. J. Littlejohn could be dropped next week completely. Then if B. Henry gets moved to the bench you could struggle for a decent scorer in the CTR's.

Other than that you have a really strong squad that honestly looks better than mine.

- I would run Leuluai over Gavet, but that is a toss up option.
- I prefer seeing Aubbuson in the CTR's, but he should score decently.. Hopefully...
- Missing A. Taylor from your HLF's who has good potential. Perhaps Barba -> WFB, Ferguson -> CTR, Leilua -> OuT! or Lichaa out J. Nikorima -> HOK, A. Taylor HLF.
- Leilua -> Out (I don't rate him.)

To answer your questions. Rookies named are Jayden Nikorima, Nathaniel Roache and Siliva Havili who is named at #17.

Ok Dudes.... I think im done... final feedback welcome.

Honestly you have solid picks and nothing needs changing. Unsure whether you should run Auva'a but yeah personal differences.

I haven't been able to move away from this team all day, so I'm thinking it's locked in.

Smith, Lichaa
Bromwich, Woods, Evans, Packer

BAD NEWS BEARS - First Draft

N. Peats, M. Cherrington
K. Evans, J. McGuire, S. Sue, V. Leuluai
C. Parker, S. Burgess, E. Whitehead, L. Ah Mau, J Saifiti, D Bhana
D. Cherry-Evans, J. Hastings, A. Taylor, J. Nikorima
M. Aubusson, C. Lawrence, N. Davis, H. Hunt
J. Mansour, B. Barba, J. Feeney, L. Mitchell, C. Gutherson

Got coin left in the kitty. Not sure about my cows. Is there anyone blatantly obvious I am missing? Only change I am considering is Ben Henry to replace one of Hunt or Davis.

It's looking similar(ish) to mine, the big names and the cow's atleast. I definitely don't have Packer though, too many question marks over him for me.

I am not overjoyed having packer in my team but there just aren't enough cows to pick from in the forwards

Great team, but I may be a tad biased towards it (Swap JDB for Merrin then look up 4 posts at my team haha)

Great minds think alike I think

Hahaha we will be victorious together or fail together pal

I know what you mean, I'm really hoping Grant gets substantial minutes and can makes some cash in the fowards.
