Leaning more and more into falling into the Aubusson trap. If he doesn't work out he's an easy trade to Paasi or Whitehead or whichever mid-priced unknown minutes 2RF goes boom in the first few weeks. Am I doing this wrong?

Par for the course mate. I am leaning towards letting him arse rape me again this year as well.

Sounds consensual if you ask me.

Its a pretty simple equation.
Aubusson starts in 2nd row/lock = in your team
Aubusson starts at centres or on bench = out of your team.
He almost certainly will move between the 2 at some point in the season. Just be prepared to trade him in/out when that happens

All reports are that Feeney has been training at fullback.
Sione should replace Pat in the centres.

Can't be considering him backrow. I get the interest at centre...
The guy is a mess

Aubbuson is like that ex girlfriend who comes over to Netflix + chill. It starts out innocent but soon turns into an absolute fuck fest involving different positions. You just have to time your run right and know when to pull out.
Oh yeah and always, always have protection ready in case the original breaks.

More like you are having a quiet one just having a nice time then get too drunk so you make a move for them then they spin you around unleash a big dildo and smash you without vasso, then leave before you've had a chance to think about change of position and what the hell just went wrong

With everyone's obsession with who are value midrangers and who are cash cows I thought I would start my team a little differently.
Who does everyone see as the players who will average the most in each position for the year:
eg two Hookers - Smith and ??
Four Props - Fifita, Bromwich, GBurgess, Woods, Graham ???
Six Second Rowers - Parker, Gallen, S Burgess, WGraham, Merrin, think Mannering and Fensom will lose minutes ???
Halves - JT, Hunt, DCE, Johnson or Reynolds
Centres - Croker, Lyon, Roberts, Chambers, Dugan
Fullbacks - RTS, Tedesco, Inglis,. Semi , MGordon?
next question is who is best value for money out of these guns in each position.
I would say Smith (double points option captain, locked in), not sure as there is so much value in lower priced options at prop, I think Merrin is best value here and likely won't decrease in price,
DCE I think is best value, Croker I think is best value given Canberra will be looking for top 8 birth, goalkicker and captain, Fullbacks - seems to be more value in and around $300k and likely that the guns will drop at some stage.
Locked into my side are Smith, Merrin, DCE and Croker. Will not trade these guys all year barring long term injury.

Think Mansour has the most value potential for a WFB 15 point drop off from 2014-2015 season partially down to injuries and a team in disarray due to injuries....Merrin for me also in the 2RF can only see Upside for Him at worse he stays where he isWarriors wrote:With everyone's obsession with who are value midrangers and who are cash cows I thought I would start my team a little differently.

Hey guys,
Just signed up after being a member on Sportal a few years ago, although I wasn't very active there.
This is my fourth year of NRL Fantasy, I only played head to head for the first few then last year was
my first attempt at playing for overall. I didn't plan very well for the bye rounds (I found it quite difficult actually) so lost a bit of ground on the leaders. I still managed some ok scores purely from luck than anything else.
I clawed my way back after the bye rounds with some good scores as well as some much needed luck and finished the season at 357th overall.
This year I've purchased a Fantasy Coach subscription to help me out over the bye rounds and with the weekly BE's but it still looks like the bye period will be a nightmare.
Anyway I've been mucking around with a team that I constantly keep changing, trying to find a good balance which is much harder this year. Apart from the 130k cows that everyone has, I like the money making potential of some of the lower priced mid range players this year like Evans, Stockwell, Paasi, Grant, Lawrence to name a few off the top of my head. Not sure if they will all go well, the potential is there, but knowing which ones to pick is the hard bit.
Although I personally feel its harder putting a team together this year, I think the potential to make some quick cash is better than ever, especially from those that will see increased minutes due to injuries and suspensions. Apart from the usual guns and some cows, I'm sure many coaches will be basing their team selections around this.
I also read yesterday that Lichaa is a maybe chance of being fit for round 1, has anyone heard anything about him. I thought I had my hookers sorted until I read this, he's one of only a few guaranteed 80mins so not sure what to do if he's out?
