    Im not sure Hodgson plays as many mins at lock this season

    They lost Havili and Ryan James and gained Adam Elliott.

    The pro Starling position would be benefitting from Havili going. But Havili didn't play much last year - only 2 games over 40 minutes

    WNRL player stats are available in the match centre - just go to player stats
    .

    eg
    https://www.nrl.com/draw/womens-premiership/2020/round-1/roosters-v-dragons/

    Shouldn't be hard to get data
    worst case just manually scrape the fantasy scores. mtb might be able to add it into footystats as its pretty much same format as NRL

    They also signed Peter Hola and young kiwi schoolboy hooker Stanley Iongi as backup for if Hodgo gets injured and/or Starling gets his punch on.

    So here is a question I have been pondering? Could we expect McInnes to play 80 at lock? He has certainly got it in him. If he does, I am going to have to get him in my team somehow.

    I have been having a look at Papali's stats. He played 6 games below 60 minutes last year. Two were in R1 & R2 before they realised how much of an asset he was. Two were when he started at PROP to replace Campbell Gillard when he was out. So I would expect that for the coming year, especially with all the other bench MIDs about, he will continue to start on the EDG and maybe do 10-15 minutes at MID when Carty comes on.

    Under a 60+ minute scenario, he averaged over 71 last year, which is closer to what I would expect this year. He is DPP and while he has not been reported as training the house down, he has been reported as staking his claim for another big year

    Yeah I'm with you here, really don't rate Clark at all. I'm probably gonna big balls it and start with Starling, give him 2 weeks to see what role he plays and worst case scenario I dump him for a cow I missed or worst case scenario pivot to Clark who won't be far out of reach if he looks the goods. Starling passes the eye test as a fantasy player too well to miss - I don't want to not get him and keep thinking for weeks that he's coming off the bench, eventually his price will drop, but he ends up at 650k anyway.

    The eliminator will be back next year also. I got caught with my pants down last year, so if we get similar interest it will start Round 18 or 19 with a different format and have 2 sides of the draw with the finalist on each side meeting in a GF so we can avoid round 25.

    Is Carty playing? I recall him being a massive anti-vaxer pre-covid

    Greetings good friends! Thought I'd better log back on here and start getting into the groove again. I see we are well underway. cheer

    I must admit, I've followed bugger all during the off season so have a lot of catching up to do, but I'm sure it won't take me long.

    I'll look at some drafts soon but will try and keep with my common rule of not looking or doing too many drafts until team lists.

    Once I'm up to speed I'll add my thoughts on what's been thrown around here and get back into the chatter.

    Hard to say for sure one way or the other at the moment. Sharks have a lot of good middles, so he doesn't necessarily have to play 80 each week, although he is certainly capable of it.

    Someone said the yesterday that everyone at the Eels got COVID except Nathan Brown so Cartwright could probably get the same exemption as NAS. From memory though it was more his partner who was a massive anti vaxxer and was pushing it onto him. He has now split up with her so he may not be as passionate about it anymore.

    Carty usually plays a small impact role off the bench. His minutes are not that relevant. He takes them from Matterson/Brown mostly towards the end of the game. Once he split from his anti-vaxx partner, he was a reformed man.

    On the Eels, one person I hear who has been training the house down is Jakob Arthur. There has been suggestions that he is making a strong case for selection over say Dylan Brown. I don't believe that it will happen but anyhow.

    I think the Eels will play a bench HOK this year, especially as Mahoney is a bit underdone moving in the new season. So Rein will take one bench spot. Lane/Nikore/Makatoa/Stone/Kaufusi/Grieg will squeeze into 2 spots, with Carty's cameo bringing up the rear. I do think Papali is a POD this year capable of averaging 70

    I'm catching up here, but if this pans out, and I know the fanatics, this poor guy is gonna be known as the potato. Which is awkward, because what then do you call players who are a potato?

    I kinda agree with this, but I don't see why it would be a disaster to start without Starling? Wait and see? I mean, if he's starting everyone will get him. If he's bench and I start without him to wait and see his role and he gets limited minutes like most bench hookers (I know things are changing), then all good. If he gets the 50 minutes role, his price won't skyrocket and if I choose, after a couple/few weeks, I trade him in for whichever dud I picked/injured/coviddddedded guy.

    I suspect though, that by the time a football is kicked in anger, that all of this debate will be moot anyway.
