Cheers mate. I got word on the grapevine that Rabbits had bestowed a few golden PMs upon people and so, like everyone else, I logged in to my main account, check my alts, created new accounts.. but alas, despite being the only(?) responder to Rabbits' teamtracker last season, I was not among the lucky few.

and yeah, looks like Mando will be 1 episode per week for a couple of months.

U can only ply the trade and maybe one year it will mean PM's.

Have uto and Sutton on my bench but playing Ford in edge, seems silly, who in edge would you get and which of those 3 would you jettison

Good to see you back, Winfield. Straight to Mando after the cricket.

Cheers mate. Taking a break from PVL footy, but owe the Tigers some support for the recent forward signings. I'd be more optimistic with Hastings instead of Brooks, but hopefully I'm proven wrong.

Changed my team up a bit, any thoughts are welcome

Grant
Cotter/Carrigan/ Murray(VC)
Hopgood/E.Butcher
(C)leary/ Boyd
Alamoti/ HSS
Miller/To'o/Warbrick

B.Smith/J.Hodgson/Blore/Trindall
Ford/Pereria/Talau/Katoa

$78k ITB

No BS9?

I’m following the crowd on BS9, although I rate 3 or more hookers as likely better points per dollar value. Read today (Telegrpah) that ”Brandon Smith has warned his loyal SuperCoach owners that he won’t play 80 against the Dolphins”. Article goes on to say that won’t be seen until second half of season. Even then, noting Cheese has only played 80 mins once, the coaches plan was for Cheese to go hell for leather (in Cheese’s words “I need to go balls out”) until Watson replaced him after 30 to run at the tired defence. The Cheese said his style is not to hold back to try to last 80. Left with impression he’s a long way from 80. The article made a throwaway line that Hutchison handy for 25 to give him a spell.

Here’s my current team,thoughts please?

Grant
Carrigan Ford Cotter
EButcher Katoa
Boyd Cleary
Alamoti HSS
Teddy Miller Warbrick

Cheese
Hopgood
Wilton
Sloan

Doorey
Kenny
Katoa

What's the story, more of Doorey?

Watson, Frawley, MaxKing, Doorey

Lots of teams posted on FB groups looking very samey

How's this forum comparing? What players are we keen on that they're not and vice versa? Those FB groups are a nightmare I can't do it.

Anyone else running with Latrell? Feel like he's the biggest POD I've got.

Though no doubt he'll get selected a lot by the more casual players.

Everywhere else I look 99% of teams have Douehi.

Bird rumored to be back week 2 and to be starting at lock. Does that mean BMM keeps his edge spot? Is he a better option than Carty, Doorey, Blore? Also gives you a loop option this week

For the same price you can get teddy who plays the Dolphins this week

Source on the Bird lock?

The one position where’s he’s actually underpriced significantly and would be a keeper CTR - though not so sure he’d be playing close to 80 like smaller sample last year

Surely people weren’t expecting him to play 80, but he is likely undervalued and at nearly 50% ownership missing the boat could be costly. With his MID / HOK dual he is an ideal second hooker if people want to run a premium. He probably scores 2 tries in the first half against the dolphins and makes his BE by oranges.

By the same Token, Roosters win by 30, he's made 30 tackles all game for 35 points

I'm also not 100% sold on Brandon Smith, but don't wanna miss out so I'm getting him lol

For those who don't understand the symbols (me), both sides 1-19 except Lumulume in for Simonsson on Eels wing.

Can't check DT or SMH at the moment, only seen from wacko. So, I guess he's read it from one of them.
