My Actual thoughts;

Flegler;
Seems to have a pretty locked in PPM of 0.84, 0.81, 0.81 over the last 3 years.
It's been a rare for him to push past 50minutes historically, and while there's a possibility that he could, that seems more based around hope than any solid indication.
I don't love sub 0.9PPM mids, they just have to get more minutes to move the dial, so even at a 50 minute average (say he ranges from 45-55 minutes), it's about a 3.7 point upside. It seems like you want a 55min+ average to offer any significant upside in a team that has reasonable forward depth (Bromwich, Wallace, Nicholls all can do a job).
Also likes a sin bin and the occasional judiciary appearance

Smithies;
Clearly, more of an unknown.
What we do know; has a good engine, will tackle anything that moves.
Brittish forwards have a good history of going well in the NRL. There are anecdotes from Elliot Whitehead that his running game & ball skills are surprisingly good.
In the trial game, I recall them saying that Canberra really went hard to get him, and that he is far better than what they had expected.
I think the pace of NRL week to week is higher than the superleague, so I'd expect any Brittish forward to get some PPM uptick playing here.
Seems worthy of a punt, with a chance he holds the 13 when Horse returns (who was an out and out prop prior to last year)
I've initially given him what feels like a fairly conservative 0.8PPM at 60 minutes initially for a 10 point upside.
0.8PPM is approx a Cotter, Elliott, Harris, Gilbert, (Flegler ironically)

Salmon or Curran?
Lussick or Hands?
Hutch or Sexy?

Those are the main questions I want to see answered today

It would be good if they could treat them as individual cases instead of constantly bundling them together.

Thoughts on Cavendish vs. Plantain?

Cavendish seems to have the most JS

It's not arbitrary which ones are named. Red, Green and Blue are used because they are the primaries when it comes to light (eg. screens, LEDs). They are used to make any other colour.
If it's pigment we are talking about it's CMYK are our primaries.
Cyan (which is the light blue you mentioned), Magenta, yellow and black. A colour such as orange would be a secondary colour. Half Yellow, half Magenta. Purple - half magenta, half cyan, green half cyan, half yellow.

Haha I'm going of on a rant now. Can you tell I'm a printer/photographer/videographer by trade?

Edit: I also know you were joking, but couldn't help myself.
