Upgrade and Aubbo should never be used in the same sentence.

After starting with him last year I'm too paranoid

Could follow the Warren Buffet rule on stocks. When people are nervous be greedy. When people are greedy be nervous

Is this back 5 acceptable - Ferguson, Gordon & rotate Feeney, Michell & Gutherson. 4k itb.

If you take Moeroa last 6 games and remove the Rd 25 16pts he averaged 43. What minutes did he play Rd 25?

Or it could be this guy.

That would be very interesting if he did. Despite is Fantasy gun status it would be hard to pick him after so long in the wilderness.

Parker or Fifita as captain?

If Mann manages to post big back to back scores early in the year he could see a huge increase at a rapid rate, and it's possible. Great price for a FB but can we trust the dragons to click in attack?

He wouldn't do very well in the fold tests. He loves his choccy biscuits haha. However I'm going to put this out there that if he came in under 200k he would be the most owned player in fantasy as people would be intrigued to see how he actually went.

I wish the salary cap was $7 million. I always find myself just short of what I think would be my perfect well balanced team.

They seemed to click against the Warriors. He's been in & out of my side every day. I see great value in him.

i dont think hindy could handle coming back tbh. its written as a serious article but it has to be a gee up?

maybe they've conjured it up to use as a 'storyline' for their shows on fox this year.

Carlos Tuimavave has just thrown an absolutely ridiculous pass 30 yards infield on his own 22, time had already expired and Denny Solomona interceped and walked under the sticks! Madness....edit. Ah just realised Gale had already kicked a field goal so Hull had to keep the ball alive still fun to watch haha

Have been following it but will watch the replay next week   .  Tuimavave was pretty awesome last game as well although he did make a bad error or 2.  He's even got Talanoa catching passes for tries!

Would you take Mann & Avuaa over Lawrence and Gutherson?

Like WL im still traumatised from his last year. During the trial on fox commentators mentioned that last year the shoulder "was hanging by a thread". I cant confirm anywhere yet that he had surgery but im taking the keyword out of that sentence "was" and assuming he had some form of surgery. If Whatbro is retiring im going to bend over once more for Moreoa i think

Completly agree, if he came in under 200K I would have him in my team.

I however think they would bring him in much higher. If they bring Packer in at 211K when he wasn't that impressive before. They will bring Hindmarsh in late 200K's early 300K.

tough with Rochow, Whitehead, Turner around the same price and Moeroa not guaranteed the start, I thought the shoulder injury he has was nerve related so surgery wasn't a guaranteed success and would still have trouble with it?

I have Whitehead, just a hunch he'll go well. I have been talked out of Rochow, think he is average and probably only gets 35 each week. Turner I can't have just yet but will keep a close eye.
Thinking big Sammy might move up to prop and they use one of Carter/Grevs in lock.
