All have great floors and huge ceilings with attacking stats
Not sure I'm in a rush to captain one of them over Haas but for those that don't own Haas it's a decent shout
I like Hynes the most of those three at this point in time (and not just because he's coming off an 80+).
The Bulldogs had a disfunctional spine before Burton arrived, and have Dufty as a new member as well - I think it will take them some time to settle (especially with some tough opposition upcoming)
The Titans have a very new spine - new fullback, an unestablished hooker, new half and it says something when Brimson at 5/8 is the most experienced - I think it takes them a bit to settle as well (although Sexton is still probably pretty safe for a 50+ most weeks by the look of things).
The Sharks are really just dropping Hynes into an established spine; Kennedy, Moylan, Brailey - I just think that gives him a leg up to get to scoring potential a bit faster than the other two.
I do agree that all three have that ability to score in essentially every category - which makes them great choices going forwards
Very tempted to go with (C)Beans this week - especially being the first match, but it's against my philosophy for this early in the season
