    I briefly had Teddy in for a period (Teddy/Papenhuyzen/Rapana) but issue is you’re guaranteed to want Campbell when he’s back (45 average at FB) so you force yourself into 4 playable WFBs  

    If you’re going Teddy/Papy/cheapie, no real issues but Rapana is equally underpriced at mid 40s (actually noticing he has few poorer scores where he’s named wing but actually played FB last year)

    If you're going cheapy you're going Kini, which I've decided is a risk not worth taking. If you went Pappy, Rapana, cheapy, I don't know where your cover would be? I'm building my team on the assumption that the Dogs name Curran (Smithies --> Curran, trying to find a bench without Salmon) and Bradley doesn't start.

    Did I mention I'm having a hip replacement later this month? True story.

    I hate him in my squad because he's 34 years old in a (predicted to be) poor team, but those starting fullback scores are lovely aren't they. The only other option for me in that price range is Kiraz, but again that's a TLT B type question isn't it.

    Rapana says he is the fittest he has ever been and up to playing fullback. Very different to last season when he was saying his fitness wasnt up to it.

    If Kiraz gets dual then id be tempted to start with him as my wfb3 and then when Cambell is available move Kiraz down to ctr

    Are we concerned about the preseason back injury? Not ideal for a player with a track record of poor form when carrying an injury.

    All report are that he's good to go. The ??? is whether he's plonked on the wing and Tracey starts centre.

    If Kiraz was named C i'd have him over Teddy, but obviously can't because they decided to have the opening games of the round in Vegas

    yeah you'd want to monitor his first game whether he's running freely etc before you buy him & only if ctr

    Currently have Weekes at WFB and Cotric in EMG

    But for WFB cover effectively have cover through Simonsson (and Burbo) for R4 Papenhuyzen bye

    I also read recently that Crichton is starting the season at CTR due to an issue with his leg (hammy from memory), so he isn't up to playing fullback initially. Was from a proper news source, but I cant recall where.

    I'd probably roll with Kiraz (in place of tommy hammies) if i knew he was 100% fit.
