Good player, all about the minutes. No idea what he will get, especially when Flegler is back.

Was fantasy gold in 2020, Dropped off drastically last year before his injury. Just a big nut trucker who will make 40+ tackles a game. If he can get back to those 55+ scores there is definite value. You'd think the Broncos lift a little more this year.

I thought he was pretty impressive in the trials tbh. Looked fit and strong.

Not sure what to expect of his mins.

I think worse case he stays pat and I jump off onto the middie who looks like elevating to gun after a few rounds.

Best case he’s back to 65 mins and going around 53/55 and a good value punt early season

He's not playing? Shit better change my draft.

Wait, which King is everyone starting with, the Melbourne one or Bulldogs one?

I think you can make a case for almost any of the Raiders forwards. The issues are around rotation and how likely they are to keep that role.

not quite as bad as Roosters middles for inconsistent minutes but I don't really trust them

Ricky is another one that doesn’t care about fantasy teams
Rides the hot hand in any one game and might have starting players only play one stint
I’m personally staying away unless we get 2 rounds of Whitehead playing 80 in the middle instead of on the edge

Well of course he stays Pat, what else could he do?

I do personally think though that Young has the edge role locked up.

People have gone off A Fifita, why?

Have any of you savvy lads got the pre-season stats? Want to check out Ilias?

Drop the Pat and go as Rick Carrigan obviously.

Far more suited to his Porn Tache

4 Forward Bench, McInnes due back R3, Graham R6

All those considering E Clark. I feel he is at a price where you can watch and see how he goes in the role and jump to him if looks the goods early. If you get him instead of a gun HOK like Cook or Mahoney and they start strong, you will be quite behind the early and be struggling to undo the damage

Don't think you've updated properly. I see last years team.

Ahhh bollocks, cheers for that mate all updated

With Clark I believe he is their for a bit of defensive grit to start the season but will be inevitably dropped for Boyd because his service is just not NRL standard. He always has to take a step and that slows momentum and allows the other team up in our face.

I've done Haas to Uto and upgraded hooker to Mahoney and spread some cash around and team looks much better. Still have 96k spare. Was thinking Lolo but Uto looks good price point

Storm King is starting, however likely to lose his spot.

Bulldogs King is bench, but likely to get consistent minutes.

If he is out, I am out of options, as I already have Burton and Lolo in my team, who would have been the obvious replacements in late playing teams.

Papy seems pretty injury prone, gets leg injuries regularly and has the likely HIA issue that may also impact his season.

Feels like Turbo all over again though, don't get him early on the risk of injuries, guns it and you're left going oooh no!

Not really a concern at all, it's just a question of a hooker gun or a gun in a different position. If I went with Cook then I'd have to go without iPap or Haas and I prefer them both to Cook or Mahoney.

wolfking wrote:Wait, which King is everyone starting with, the Melbourne one or Bulldogs one?

I have both of them

I don't think he is likely to lose his spot at all. We are really thin in the forwards this year and Bellyache must've seen something in him. He should be set for big minutes this week with no Bromwich and Smith possibly playing longer at 9, but moving forward I reckon he steps into Finucanes 55 minute role (probably only gets more like 45-50 unless he proves himself) and plods along for some nice 40's.

I had a meeting with his stache, and it convinced me to put him in
