    I am of the opinion that the Roosters don't really feel that Sandon Smith is the best option to spell Brandon Smith - but they are suckers for name pairings that rhyme

    Forget Rapana being old and past it - I was just looking at Tedesco's stats... No scores below 30 until 2022 - 4 scores below 30 in 2023 - his best is behind him in fantasyland

    Yeah, I’ll just go Cotter and miss The Cheese this week. I can now have more money available to sort out the remainder of Rd1. I only have 6 players locked this weekend.

    There might be better value picks at his price in other positions, but as far as "fun" goes, there are only three hookers who can imagine giving you a happy (ending) weekend by scoring a 75+ and two of those are over 750k.

    Connor Watson is a pretty decent Hooker.

    B Smith has had what, one good year?

    Think he is fair value.

    Fair value with an excellent bye schedule is probably enough to get him in a shit position.

    The dual MID/HOK is gold in R13 and R16, just 1 bye round until R18. Really frustrating having a 2nd HOK that can't be played in the major bye rounds.

    I had ditched Tatts for Wong but have now done a back flip, he may be boring but he is solid and his job is secure, so I wont be hanging with the cool kids at the bar I will be over at the corner table.

    I'd already dropped Aitken but someone in group chat said he's training with reserves and Kaufusi Lemmy edges. Did someone else post this training session had Plath at 13?

    Lolo played 6 games off the bench last season. Not a locked in starter any more.

    Who do you think is likely to start ahead of him this year?

    I guess Payten loves Granville and might give him a run.

    But the same injuries that make Mikaele interesting also make Taumalolo more likely to do something

    Plath is already priced at 500k based on two games.

    Strong chance Bromwich takes 30 minutes or so off him. Not really a solid option

    I've not found anything that says Fog has a hamstring injury, was it NRL Physio? Munster also didn't trial.

    Yeah I reckon Tats only 41k more is worth it for job security and shouldn't have a problem averaging 40+. Just hoping that Wong sticks around and can hit anything over 40.

    It was before trials

    I think it was early January

    Have said it multiple times already but Ricky Stuart explicitly stated that the players fighting for a spot would play both trials together before the trials began

    I too have rejoined the boring Tatola club and rejigged my team post TLT

    All these double up on early byes is future me’s problem. But was thinking with the gun WFB I likely want Campbell when he returns so I’d be left with 4 playable WFBs with probably one on INT

    Still no Haas Laughing But I might eliminate the no Grant question

    Not interested in Plath just seeing if anyone confirms Aitken not training with first team

    Any concerns for Hopgood if Matto is on the bench?

    With: 59 in 64 min
    Without: 66 in 71 min

    Does it make Murray/Haas the better choice in this case
