Turner is someone on my watchlist, with Surgess surely guaranteed 80 mins how many does Turner get? Has played big minutes in the past but not sure how the addition of Sam effects that? and his injury history is horrifying

Not sure how they view Turners minutes but for mine he is an 80 minute player , has a huge motor and will tackle all day - I am banking on him having an injury free start to the season and hopefully reaching his full potential, the guy needs some luck to finally go his way!

Right there mate he absolutely deserves it just hope he doesn't make anything worse by attempting to play through injuries more than he should! I'm rooting for him

I like the guy but he shouldn't be playing any sort of contact sport

Did Kyle Turner play in the Rabs trial against the Titans?

Certainly I don't think Rochrow will lose value, which is a good start. For someone that price though I probably want the potential for bigger points/price rises than what I think Rochrow will give.
Whilst I'm comfortable with him being and to score 40, I don't see it being much better than that. So he is only borderline useful to my team.
If nobody better turns up though, he'll be in.

Whitehead vs Rochow?

Also out of interest does anyone know PGC's starting squad from last season?

What rounds did Aubo play 80 min 2RF last season please and thank you.

Don't understand everyone's obsession with 80 minute players. This is leading to people considering proven fantasy duds like Sironen. If they aren't going to increase in price and they aren't a keeper they have no business being in your squad

Finding value and therefore money making often goes hand in hand with increased minutes a player might get surely

Rounds 6, 7, 14, 15, 18 and 21. He played 70+ in Rounds 19 and 20

Yeah he played not sure for how long though.

Some players can sustain 80 minutes of footy at the same level ie Surgess whereas others have errors creeping into their game as fatigue sets in.

He was in the my favourite team I have selected so far, I hate him and I am close to retiring from NRL Fanatsy

I might join you in retirement, he is in my team also.

Worse thing is was slagging guys for considering him a few days ago...what shall we do in our early retirement mate? SC? How much is Aubbs in that?

Not interested in Supercoach.
I feel it is an inferior competition.
I suggest we just drink.

Haha done!

i cant wait for the season to start so i can be put out of my misery

Just wanting to know whether I should pick Chris Lawrence at all? Yes he may have scored well around Origin time last year but that was against depleted teams and he got attacking stats. How did he go at 2RF in the run home?
Most of the time he is going to score around 35 (and is a glassman) which isn't bad but I'd rather take Aubo in the centres for his 45. Will use him and flick him to Lyon when hes done his dash.

What do people think of T Moeroa? Just trying to find my 4th 2rf under $312K. Not sure on Rochow now. Can also be a FRF such as Tim Grant but would prefer to leave LAM there with Woods, Evans and Blaw.

Elliott Whitehead $311,000 leaves you with a cool $1,000 in leftover for that emergency upgrade you might need
