    Depends how the draft is set up.
    I was in a draft yesterday;
    8 teams
    60 second time limit,
    captains were allowed.

    First, I made a list of 8 capt. choices, knowing I would get at least one of them.
    I was pick 6 so I had the choice of 3 of them. My turn came around and I was shocked to see Grant still available.

    I didn't expect that peace of luck so my next pick was going to be 3rd or 4th best hkr ( Robson or Koro ). You don't want to wait too long for a HKR.

    There are lots of good Middles, Edges and Halves, but not so many top line CTR or WFB, so target them early !!

    Makes sense for Dolphins cos they have Kaufusi and KBrom, but honestly think he’s better as an edge.

    Winger outside him isn’t getting much ball

    Jordan Rapana of the Canberra Raiders has ruled out the possibility of playing fullback in the absence of Xavier Savage.

    Rapana was named at fullback in the absence of Savage (broken jaw) for the Raiders' trial match with the Wests Tigers last Sunday but despite wearing the No. 1 jersey, Rapana remained on the wing.

    With Savage ruled out for the Raiders' Round 1 clash with the Cowboys, the opportunity remained for Rapana to take the position - but he declined.

    "I won't be playing fullback. My legs are too old for that. It's off the cards," Rapana told The Canberra Times

    "I can go back and help, but I've made it very known to Stick (Ricky Stuart) that I'm a winger. I'm 33 now."

    This is interesting, but I won't believe anything until I see the team list on Tuesday.

    HSS may not be a go if Ricky decides to use a not Rapana at fullback.

    That might be where the McLean rumour came from. He'd play wing if Turuva is fullback (or centre with Crichton fullback if Penrith are idiots.) Would put big question on McLean's job security if Turuva also in starting 13.

    Penrith also have Tom Jenkins - more of a centre than a winger, but if Crichton is the one to move, then he may come into the team

    Sadder thing is how these guys use mental health as an excuse. People will question but does he really, wonder what he did to get on the front foot, what aren't the media telling us. When actually they bloke has bipolar and needs support.

    Which FRF partners Carrigan? None will be captain for Rd1 (Hynes in the half) -Murray, Haas, or Tapine? Tapine will be in ny Rd 13 team, but that’s so far away! The other option is going Haas and Tapine over Carrigan.

    For a long while there I had Haas, Cotter, Tapine. Then I had Carrigan, Cotter, Tapine. Currently have Haas, Tapine, undecided midranger. I don't think that really helps.

    Ive gone Carrigan and Haas. Mainly because they dont have an early bye. I'll be trading Tapine in for rd 13 at some stage.

    Same - although I am heavily biased...

    Not worried they play for the same team, they will both be on the park for as long as possible.

    10 man draft comp it was 17 players each snake draft I got 6th pick.

    Ended up with

    Boyd
    Haas Tohu L. Thompson
    Koloamatangi Katoa
    Douiehi C. Walker
    Holmes Schoupp
    Manu Nofo Addo Carr

    Egan K. Tuilagi D. Saifiti CNK


    Not bad for my first draft I don’t think I have the worst team but not the best either.

    After writing up < $300k backs, here is the next tier up. Apologies if I left out the player you are interested in. Its only because they are my super-secret POD who is going to average 40 and I want them to myself.

    Sean Russell $319k
    Hattrick in 34 minutes  last year, which backed up a 39 (with 2 tries) in his only other start. Personally I am not inteersted because of a) his likely scores without a try, and b) not sure he has a spot secure in the Eels backline

    Junior Tupou $319k CTR
    May take Maumolo's wing spot. Averages 29 in 4 games in the NRL, but people got excited by a 58 in the trial against the Raiders. Maumaolo's injury is "indefinite" and Staines is around as well, so who knows how long he'll be around for. Maybe you can do better with the $250k guys, but he is an option

    Te Maire Martin $313k HLF/WFB
    Long term average of low 30s in the halves, but hasn't played NRL there since 2019. Priced under 20 he's a good option if he can get back up there


    Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad, $372k WFB
    Averaged 28 last year which is about where he is priced, but averaged 40 the 2 years prior. So everyone is hoping he gets back to those scores. 40 points is fine for a WFB, especially one you can buy for sub $400k, if he can get there

    Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow $372k CTR/WFB
    He's a roller coaster. Has scored 35 in 8 minutes, and scored 6 point in 80. Fullback average is 31 and priced at 26. I think you can make money on him - he'll go on a run of scores at some point. Just depends how long it takes before he does it and if he loses too much money first. Maybe Bennett can get the best out of him at the Dolphins

    Lachlan Miller $426k WFB
    Starting to get into expensive territory now, so you want clear points and value here. In his 4 NRL FN starts he averages 49 (2 tries in 4 games) so if that is a guide his 29 price point is a steal.
    He averages 9 TBs a game in those games, which is actually a step up from the 8 TBS a game he averaged in 80 minute fullback starts in NSW Cup. Knights not as good a team as Cronulla. Will that impact his scoring?

    Izaac Thompson $319k
    Been in many teams all pre-season. 32 and 49 in his previous 2 NRL games, both with a try. Averaged  44 in NSW Cup with 20 tries in 16 games. Priced at 22 he just needs to main a somewhat average try scoring rate and points could come. Also needs to maintain his spot when Milne comes back from injury

    Gees you must have gone cheap in 2RF or FB, along with centre.
