    Option 1. Lichaa to Peats

    Option 2. Woods to Bromwich

    Option 3. Mann to Gordon (1k short of Mansauce)

    Option 4. Leave $36k in the kitty for any missed Cows?

    There was a fair bit of discussion around him a couple of weeks ago. I think the general consensus was his scores and minutes were inflated by injuries and a couple of tries so while he's likely undervalued at 39 to start the year he'll probably only average around 45 or so on an average day out.
    If he gets say 60 minutes and keeps it up then yeah I'll scramble to hop on that missed bandwagon but otherwise it doesn't look like he's set for his workrate and involvement to go up all that high.

    my tv broke wrote:i wish two fantasy relevant teams were playing the opening game of the season tomorrow. great as a bronco fan but i only have moeroa playing (well, he's in my team atm), and gutho NPR.

    There will be loads of fantasy players out there. Especially with Parra having the best bye schedule.

    I'm likely going to captain one just to get off to a huge start Laughing

    Ok caught up now...

    Couple of quick notes from an old hand at this.

    - those concerned about Ben Hampton impact on Cam Smith. Just stop it.
    - comments trying to make a strong case against Ben Henry who is an experienced campaigner wth decent scoring in years gone by, priced at the min and with DPP. Not even sure what people playing at. He is a no brainier NPR. Stick him in and move on


    On a related note my centres are a bag of shit and I can already see my normal bad pattern of spending 6-7 trades on centre surgery. Disaster.

    What .......

    Parker good for 60, regularly gets 70-80points
    17th player with Parker - 20 points
    Total 80-100
    Roberts might get 50 one week 20 the next
    Whitehead most people will be happy if he gets 45.
    Total 70 - 90

    Therefore don't downgrade

    Cheers mate, haven't really taken risks on any players, so might have to give Turbo a shot for a point of difference.

    No you were wrong, his last 5 round avg was 53, 2 points below his season avg of 55

    IIRC your "prediction" was that he wouldn't score higher than 50 for the remaining 10 or so rounds of the season... Which was right for the first two weeks after that.

    Then the Broncs went all the way into the finals and he didn't go under that once.

    lol!

    Nah you said his average would drop down to 40 or something which it didn't. Nice try.

    I would reckon there are a few people who join in just to feel part of something going on in the office. They auto-fill their teams and barely look at them or understand what fantasy really is.

    Anyone have players that they think will do well but are afraid to pull the trigger on?
    James Roberts is mine.
