No need to be sorry, I'm a big advocate of daytime GIFs... or ANYtime GIFs for that matter

If a few of them have an up week at the same time, you can leap frog thousands of teams easily. Going with the same players everyone else is bringing in, keeps you behind the pack."

daytime GIFS are OK but put them behind a spoiler tag.

I'm sure those in open plan offices don't want to see that cow GIF pop up when their boss walks past

My boss is sick of hearing about Mcinnes

Too many question marks, plus the 4 forward bench means he doesn’t need to play big minutes

What's the groupthink on Couchman I've lost a few days to the real world.

There are reasons to be dubious of McInnes, but bench makeup isn't one of them

He started lock plenty of games last year, and he actually averaged more minutes when a 4th forward was on the bench compared to Trindall
Small enough sample size that HIAs probably influence the stats more than anything else. But its not something I'd be worried about

He's more popular then Crossland

I guess the thinking is that a young player more likely to improve his scores than some old fart who's been average for 10 years.

Plus Couchman is a name that lends itself to some nice puns and player nicknames.

I suppose worst case he'll be great to have over the origin period (but then again, he might get picked!!)

Really makes me want to get on Tohu and Tapine before round 13 and for now just do like Uto > McInnes and hope for solid scores.

Its, ah, likely nowhere near perfect.

Crossland is 22

Great if you started with him, but I don't think anyone is looking at trading him in at almost $700k, especially when he plays Origin and is in a crappy team.

He's looked good, his minutes have increased. Molo is out for 3 weeks and he can play on the edge too when BMM has run out of steam.
Hoping for 40+ mins of gametime
