    It means that I will be running without a 'gun' CTR though...

    Leaves my backs looking like: Paps, Rapana, Kini, Burbo and Strange.

    Hopgood with that bench just looks mighty tempting to me.

    Any response is appreciated lads!


    Quite tempted to do something similar

    Hard to take your "gunning up" claim seriously when you aren't listing this year's top scoring centre Ben Trbojevic.

    Doesn't score very well in Cup, needs a try to get over 30 in 80 minutes and probably doesn't get 80 minutes.

    Can’t have 7 Raiders though can you?

    Hosking, Smithies, Fog, Kris, Strange, Rapana, Levi?

    That cows bench leads me to believe Cotter is going to rip in for 50-60 minutes, Taumalolo 40-50 minutes. I don't think either are decent enough options to start with now. This might necessitate a gun mid after all.

    I somehow went from Hutch/Shoes in 18 & 19 to Flanno/Levi occupying those two spots. Also, $124k, which seems excessive?

    No good reason not to. Only good reasons to do it.
    You would expect a good amount of them will max out their prices by round 10 bye.

    Does anyone here think RTS can realistically average 50+ at centre? I have him in my team, but unsure if I'm being a one eyed wahs fan or not

    Thinking about doing something very similar. I feel like I am short of a gun and Hopgood is one I am looking at. I have Penis in the centres but feel like I can use his money to bring in Hopgood and maybe upgrade someone else and just run Strange.

    So hosking only makes 55k in three rounds if he scores 55 average. I don't feel like this is enough to justify the potential risk of getting less minutes when Whitehead comes back.

    Hosking Will go back to the bench once the captain recovers. And that's just another trade I've got to play around round 3:00 or 4.

    Royce Hunt averages 37.5 when averaging 36 minutes at prop. He’s priced at 26. Pretty boring pick with shaky job security but clear value as a starter.
