Players association pushing for 18th man. AFL have introduced a concussion reserve this season. NRL will be following soon too, I'd say.

I'm in the same position and seriously considering just bringing Haas straight in. Fuck waiting to see what happens with his minutes

I'm starting to look at non origin keepers. AFB looks slightly under priced with Tohu available at a premium. Taupau a tier under keeper but probably priced about where he scores.

Think it might be a position to take what you can get until Haas/Taumalolo situation plays out

Still of the opinion paying any sort of premiums for centres is madness. Lock in 2 under 400k, grab one for depth on the bench and ride it out until they get dropped/injured/suspended

R13 gun pickings looking slim. Personally Matto and Moses are priorities for me over Haas/Lolo

Would really suck being the 18th man every week

Also runs a big risk with coaches and trainers milking a shoulder injury for HIA

There may be a strong correlation with the amount of cans I’d had, sitting around a camp fire and this stupid trade.

I've got a feeling Haas doesn't make origin this year which would make him the dominant captain option that week

Reckon Freddie runs something like this

8. Saifiti
9. Cook
10. Paulo
11. Crichton
12. Frizell
13. Trbojevic
14. Radley
15. Murray
16. Finucane
17. Yeo

Faster ruck speed means more mobile middles and Freddie loves all those players

Looks pretty good to me.
But I'd play Jurbo at starting prop, shift Paulo to the bench for impact and run Murray as the lock.
Also not sold on Yeo on the bench as it becomes essentially a 4 lock bench.
Add another big bopper for impact and a definite 14 who can cover any of the inevitable backline injuries.
After Teddy went down last year - Freddy will likely play Pappy or Guth as 14.

Just my opinion mind.

I'd generally work off a MN of 13,000 now (which should be there or thereabouts).  It tends to drop a little as the season progresses. So 650k for a 50 avg, 715k for 55
