Only way

Anyone still fairly keen on running Teig Wilton in your squad?

Seems like value to me personally, feel like Wade Graham is abit past it tbh

87k itb for fixing in Round 2

You could go Turbo/Murray instead of Teddy/Carrigan if you were worried about the roosters bye week too

Not worried re Blore that Bateman could be back in a week or two which means Blore goes back to 25mins off the bench?

Bateman stated as playing lock? Didn't Sheens and Benji want a ball playing lock hence why they chased him and told Ofa he wasn't that?

Why does this effect Blore?

I was but losing Hynes put me off, too many cheaper options

Though he could still do very well

Only played 80 twice last year when Wade was in the team

Great player in a great team and he should play the whole game but bit of a fantasy punt with Graham on the bench

I’m trying to squeeze him in but don’t think I can. Yeah I think it’s surely time to give him the reins but feels a little too risky

Not a fan of Turbo at this stage, think he's a wait and see. I do like Murray too but at 100k cheaper I think Haas can hit similar numbers. Lets me spend money elsewhere

I currently have 211k spare, more changes required

Have chucked my team in a new tracker if anyone wants to peruse. It’s pretty boring to be honest

The Sadrugu one is lol. Don’t even know how they make that decision.  Huge upside if named

Pleased about Sadrugu, at least he played there in the trials, unlike Dunn who is yet to lace up his boots. Weird they couldn't give any dragons players dual given they are handing them out like chocolates today.

According to my calculations, if Cookie averages 65 from R1-12, Cleary has to average 70.6 to make up for the lost points in the games he plays. This of course does not take into account extra captain points if Cleary averages more. The current vision is to grab Cleary/Hynes after their Bye rounds.

Any gaping holes in this squad?

54k ITB to fix R1 issues

Guys. I might skip Walsh. It just seems easy to put Tedesco there instead.

Teddy would be a no brainer if he wasn't the third Rooster. Will be tough navigating 3 red dots I think, especially if Mr. Blore gets booted by Bateman in R4. According to your site, if Blore averages 40 he'll make 100k so not the worst outcome if he lasts 3 rounds.

I currently have 154K to spare and am thinking of leaving it, with tentative plans to get Hynes sooner rather than later (not giving too much weight to byes, personally).

I had Grant in there, but switched him out to Boyd/Garner as I think there's good money to be made in the pair. Left me with some change but I don't hate it... for now. Tomorrow is another day. Wednesday, to be exact.

As for Teig, had him in my squad since day one and he only left it today. Wasn't specifically due to Hynes not being there, but it was as a result of re-shuffling my team due to Hynes' absence.

Which Rorters players would you suggest to carry seeing that the Rorters have a bye in round 4. I feel like there's a few Rorters players that can gun it in the first couple rounds against week oppositions but like you said I don't think it's wise to carry too many Rorters players

Egan Butcher and Cheese

I really liked Teddy too, especially for that R1 match-up, but then I noticed Haas wasn't too much more so I currently have a Haas in my squad.

Could be the chicken curry I've had for dinner... but I feel uneasy not having cook in my team for some reason.

Your HLF depth is a hole, but you could sub Warbrick into WFB and use Martin as the HLF depth with Katoa. Can't fault your logic with Cook v Cleary. What they score is anyone's guess

What's your thoughts on Uto? I'm tossing him up as well, seems value if he gets 45 odd minutes but the Tigers pack has a lot of mouths to feed

Why does this affect Blore?

Well that is what we don’t know do any Tigers fans have any thoughts around it? I thought talk coming out was that Bateman would play edge… maybe he plays both. Blore could play 70mins this week and 25mins next week if Bateman is back. He has the pedigree though so it could be worth the risk.
