If ever there was an exception to not picking a terrible player, surely having a base price CTR playing in the forwards is it.
I'm not excited by the pick either, but its got to be better than starting with Talau or Smith-Shields was in 2023
I may end up with him as well, but along with the questions over whether he is an NRL player...
- Seibold has shown the "other" edge is probably a 50-60 minute edge.
- Combined with a career output of about 0.5PPM (he won't be playing that Tigers team every week... or until R25 when you better hope you don't still have him!)
- On one occasion he managed to string 5 games together (3 of those being 20mins or fewer)
- IF he averages 25-30 from his 50-60 minutes for 4 or 5 weeks, is he really going to do enough to be worthwhile... maybe? (but it certainly ain't pretty)
- Has a better player ready to take his spot, assuming the said better player can get fit and uninjured...
It seems like a probably inevitable but slightly regrettable pick that we're all going to resent to some degree
