I am not blind yet and I am gonna keep fiddling to cos it feels good

Hodgson
Elliot B Smith Niukore
Faitala-Mariner Hopgood
Doueihi (VC) Hynes (C)
Penisini Bird
Miller Perham Mitchell

E Katoa Luke Stone Doorey

Martin Sadrugu Te Whare Thompson

hodgson-not convinced he'll get big mins due to his age & durability
niukore-if he starts he will be good value. i think i read somewhere curran is injured atm but if he starts rd. 1 then niukore bench
rfm-i read on the doggies forum that gould said he won't be playing 80 mins so keep an eye on that but i like the pick
ctrs-i'm not going to say starting with more expensive ctrs is wrong as they are both good players
bird-with amone/sullivan not there for rd. 1 or rd. 2 in the dragons case chances are bird will be in the halves & it's been mentioned on here that he's too versatile so will be the mr fixit. if i'm paying top dollar for a ctr i want him playing in the pack each week
luke/stone/sadrugu/te whare-these players will either not start or their role off the bench will mean low mins

If i had to guess i would say unfortunately Gosiewski. He has the experience and he has been active on the radio talking about the upcoming season and he was involved in the golf trip with the NRL players. As i said nothing for sure though so i Hope i am wrong.

hess has been training predominantly on the edge so looks like he'll start rd. 1 & beyond until luki is back

Maybe we can hope that Treymain Spry gets a start at the titans?

Happy New Year everyone.

I'm behind the times - what's been happening in Fanatics world?

There has already been talking Kenny will get get about 50mins. I see Luke getting 25-30mins initially which I don’t think is enough so he’s not in my team.

Sangster, of the Supercoach variety, has stated his sources have Luke playing about 50-55 mins with Kenny starting but then moving into the forward rotation. Who knows?

I didn't think beating up your girlfriend counted as battle. Or that he was much good last year.

Still, it would've been stranger to actually agree with the Mole.

There are certain players, he’s the captain of it, that will never be in my team based on moral grounds. As a Tigers fan Moses, Aloiai and Matto make that list as well. On Moses, apparently there is a meeting with The Tigers and him and his manager tomorrow. I’m hoping it gets canceled tomorrow morning!

The highest probability of Luke’s mins is actually 0…. If you listen to Panthers coach and staff comments and not media.
They’ve brought Peachey back who will get the Utility role and as has been stated by the Panthers they rate Kenny highly and appreciate his patience in development. He will be rewarded and given every opportunity to prove he’s an 80 min HOK.
I’m personally hoping Luke does play through the trials so it throws others off the scent as well.

Bench will be

Peach
Leniu
Sorenson
Eisenhuth

If that’s the bench on TLT don’t you think people might somehow figure it out?

Pick what from?

Yeah, meant from a minutes perspective, not quite clear reading it back. If people are convinced on a lower minute Kenny with Luke playing through the trials on larger mins then Peach could scare them off all the same.

No.

I guess I'll have to update the link when Random fixes the domain name...

Or some such. Internet words.

RFM for 80

News out of Parra is that Doorey has the 2nd row start. Is he worth it for the three weeks “Why pay the fine” Matterson is unavailable? Also, anyone know if Blake is actually injured? Dunster likely to get a start if he is out!

Matterson is a bench mid now Doorey is a must pick

Congrats MS lad!

Hello all

Happy new year and congrats on the new babies for those who have them. Someone asked me at work today if I’d started my fantasy team. So today’s the day. Current draft (below) isn’t quite finished but it will get there.
