From Chooks forum

"If I had to pick between Smith & Suaalii from what I’ve seen of both I would go with Smith.
They have both played 5 NRL games Smith has scored 4 tries Suaalii has scored 1.
Dont get me wrong I think Suaalii can play but from what I’ve seen Smith is better at this stage."

"smith from what ive seen is miles ahead of sualli at this stage...i know sualli has potential but i reckon smith cpuld be the goods now"

The player that scores the most tries being the best is exactly the kind of analysis I expected from a club forum

Chanel Harris-Tavita did not get WFB despite being named at fullback (clear placeholder for Walsh so correct decision IMO)

Also Palasia not getting MID, placeholder for Flegler... although they have other forwards that could fill in.

Pap still needs to clear some sessions to be right to play. Either way he won't be goal kicking in Round 1 with Meaney kicking instead

Still some uncertainty with him

It would be more annoying if he was fantasy relevant, but its a bit silly that he doesn't get it. He's a middle forward. He'll still be there when Flegler returns.

From memory CHT and 50 off the bench Meaney weren't given DPP as they are temporary injury fill ins.

Ah man I miss Widdop. Used to love watching him play for the Dragons.

Why is everyone starting with Haas over IPap ?

I want him in my team but I can't seem to make it work

Slightly off topic, but thoughts on Drinkwater being released early in the season? Potentially, there are a few clubs would be interested...

He's on good coin for someone not in the 17. They already have Holmes on big dollars shunted to ctr and McLean losing a starting spot.

Tohu Harris, James Maloney, Cooper Cronk, Greg Inglis, Gareth Widdop, Mark Nicholls, Ryan Hoffman

all went on to be successful at other clubs.

Tohu Harris, (tick) James Maloney, (Fantasy irrelevant) Cooper Cronk (Fantasy irrelevant) , Greg Inglis (Output dropped) Gareth Widdop, (dropped) Mark Nicholls, (lol?) Ryan Hoffman (irrelevant)

Teams in dire need of a running FB/HLF...

Broncos, Knights?

@multiple.scoregasms if you have the time, would like to hear your thoughts on David Fifita, noticed you haven't got him, just curious about your thoughts.

To be fair you never said fantasy relevant. I also remember a time when Cleary was injured and Maloney was uber gun material for a while... Inglis had some of his best years at the Rabbits, Nicholls is a quality middle forward who gets his job done really well.

To be clear, my statement was focused on fantasy relevance, not how good they were as a player after.

Obviously Cronk was one of the greats, even at the chooks but never relevant to fantasy. Same goes for the others, bar Tohu.

I thought it was implied, since we were talking about Hynes being picked in a fantasy team.

Just did Uto, Clark, and Sean Russell to Bullemor, Grant, and Leo Thompson(EMG)

I can't look at Randall and Clark as my only hookers. Rather have a spin on Bullemor in 13 for a few weeks and know Grant in next week

Sue and Saifiti due back R3 so could be no where near the team list come R3.

Most fantasy relevant Storm players don't leave. And fantasy relevant Storm players weren't exactly in huge numbers anyway, obviously you had CS9, but after that Slater who wasn't exactly dominant in fantasy back then, Bromwich was a beast for a while.

But still, Tohu, Tolman, Friend, Maloney (yes he was fantasy relevant), Inglis (he still played well even if his "output dropped" which was more injuries than "he left Melbourne and turned bad".

All fantasy relevant.

I know. I'm not opposed to having an NPR for poopholing
