I thought it was 14300. Not sure. Where's the Cow when you need him?

Let's go with yours mate, still 8 points of value.

Burton priced as per last season (50.3) with career 5/8 average of 53.

Way i'm looking at it is, Burton has to improve his fantasy scoring, (Kikau and all round improvement might accelerate that) just to go close to what Doueihi has done as the norm at 5/8.

We were both wrong. It's 14,491 according to earlier Milch post. So Doueihi priced at 53.2, Burton at 49.6

Nice.

For me mate and opinion only, Doueihi shown me enough from previous scoring at current position to provide value. Burton has to add additional scoring somewhere to close the gap.

I'd absolutely agree with your last paragraph if I actually thought he was going to play 80, but AFB, Barnett, Curran, Niukore, Jazz all in the minutes mixer.

The top MIDs who are also non-Origin who are getting no attention on here are Tapine and iPap. iPap is probably too expensive to start the year, but there's a touch of value in Tapine with Elliott gone and JPap winding down.

I think Mahoney will make a big difference to Burton and the Dogs. Absolutely the #1 hooker in the game for dummy half service, which doesn't show up on the fantasy stats. Having said that, Api will be a big improvement for the Tigers in that department too.

Tohu is 31 now, I am not sure he will ever get back to those fantasy numbers. But what I forsee, is that you buy him priced at 48, and he scores 48-54, which are gun scores so you never find an excuse to trade him, but whilst you might find 4 points of value on a season keeper, I would rather back Carrigan to average 55+ for just 30k more.

My point is there doesn't have to be a 10 point increase from Doohickey, he is currently 10+ points UNDERVALUED based on his 5/8 average (62)

Priced @ 51

Yeah I'm on Doueihi over Burton at the moment, I originally had Munster but their averages are dead even (Doueihi at 5/8 vs Munster) and Doueihi is 100k less with an almost zero chance of playing Origin without mass injuries. That freed up the money to get Murray into my side as an alternate captaincy option (usually starts the year well and has no byes until Origin)

The Dolphin Conspiracies wrote:Word from an Eels podcast is that Jake Arthur is going to play full games in the NSW Cup to focus on his development as a player. It looks like the plan is to play Hodgson for 80 minutes. He is not fresh off his injury either and has had a full pre-season out of rehab. He is looking the goods
