    I can't see how this would work. Can barely provide adequate defence in the line.
    He'd run it back 10m only to be driven back 20.

    I reckon his unusual position would be a Josh McGuire type hooker role at best.

    Think of all the times he could prevent a goal line drop out by taking it on the 20 getting pushed back into the ingoal and then flopping over the line when he gets a shove from his wingers.

    I've heard his lateral running speed is unprecedented and he has hands as big as plates. Legend has it he's much better under a bomb dropping from 150mt than a 1mt offload from dummy half.

    You did say surprising Very Happy

    I'd hold that one for a week dude. Couchmans not losing anything and it's highly doubtful Luki gains anything. Just do a minutes and fitness check if you can.

    Edit : TLDR If you can't wait a week it's not worth it

    For the record; there is a fair bit of creative license here (well, all of it... but I do think DK enjoyed winning LOTB as well Smile )

    Note to self: I should actually interview this years winner

    Luki has had one 80 min game in his entire career, they’re carrying a 2rf on the bench this week.
    I get the appeal, round 13 player, 2rf, low BE, but even when seemingly fit (which is rare) he still comes with a minutes risk.

    Just ask ChatGTP to cobble something together from their forum posts (except maybe if @Rev wins it)

    Couchman definitely a sell, Luki a buy unless he gets injured again
