Agreed. Also he's got a bit of mongrel about him. I remember when they played the Roosters he was giving JWH everything he got. Didn't back down at all. Bit like Radley that way I guess.Honeysett wrote:
I think the really important aspect here that's been missed is he's just a great footballer. He's not just some gap filler who will get dropped on form. He's always around the ruck when they make a quick play and he can bust a tackle. I like him as a player.

Who are people that are interested in Koro thinking they'd drop for him? Starting hooker or get him as your backup?

Sezer is available, trained this week, at 14, just wasn't picked ahead of the other 2.BCT05 wrote:
I'm confused are you banking on him doing all the kicking even if Sezer is back in next week or are you banking on Sezer not coming back in?
Sullivan was on my radar, even if next to Sezer.
His pricing includes interchange games, a 3 point injury game and playing next to hunt.
He was primary kicker next to Sezer in the trials and starting next to a rookie 6.
Kid has talent, now getting opportunity.

What a shower.
1. Your internet in no mans land will be so bad you'll fuck it up anyway so it wont matter
2. Even if you manage to loop correctly you'll choose the wrong player to loop

I'm with Matt on this one. Throwing a good sample of reserve grade stats out the window because "hurr durr reserve grade" is pretty moronic. Especially when you're comparing apples with oranges (starting lock vs impact bench player).mattnz wrote:
When there is a small sample size, including a length of the field try for a forward, giving 52 points in 31 minutes in one of the games, reserve grade stats are more likely to give a better idea of likely output in that position. In this case it is pretty clear not to be expecting 1 PPM from him.
At the end of the day Duncan is playing EDG which is neither lock nor interchange. You would be remiss to ignore his reserve grade starts at lock, just as you would be remiss to ignore his first grade average of 1ppm including a length of the field try (which is in his range of possible outcomes).
Basically, consider all the data available to you, interpret it using the best of your (our) combined 78 IQ, and come to a conclusion if he's a buy.
My 78IQ (maybe less in fantasy terms) tells me he's a fairly obvious buy.

That side needs serious rebalancing, to get the cash in the 17. Would start by trading in a decent half so you aren't relying on Strange there.

I have seen him play. Great player. Will wait and see his role before trading in though. Who do you trade out that he is going to do much better than, before Arrow returns - Sitili, Piakura, Wong? Is he really an upgrade on them?

Hoping for all that is good and holy that he gets more minutes than I predicted (and I predicted 80 minutes) because my first round was a dumpster fire and the only reason I'm still holding out hope is because I had a "gun" on a bye.Camo123 wrote:Thoughts on Koro with Sezer on bench?

Should definitely be GK as well

Have Salmon and Levi in loop, Hutch in 17 and Chan left out currently
Got the same bunch and Salmon is definitely in my 17, personally.
I'm currently set up to loop Hutch and Chan, but confident Hutch will do enough that a loop need not be considered. I actually have Hughes over Levi in my pecking order, personally.

Unless there's something obvious mate, enjoy the chance to kick back and pat yourself on the back for a job well done. I'd happily swap your situation for mineLiverpool_Bulldog wrote:Well 21 green dots and not a lot I really want to do with 180k in the bank.

There'll be plenty of rounds where you're forced into a double trade, so unless there's a big upgrade or no-brainer cash gen option, I'd be sitting on my hands.

No real trades needed for me (753 last week - only real letdowns were Hopgood, Cleary, Grant and Piakura - but they are all long term holds for me so will bounce back)
will have cotric, Kini and Willison as Red/Black dots, but they sit nicely on the EMG bench.
Possibly think of moving Willison out for a green cheaply to possibly start rising in value.

Can’t loop the 2 dogs which is why Hughes is parked at 21 for me

Bird and Tedesco vibes the way he runs.mickspicks wrote:
The way he skips across across field is intriguing me.
Hopgood and Kiraz vibes the way his first instinct appears to be offload.
Could be a deadly mix for fantasy, and a really frustrating time for opposition middles.

Went in with only Grant and Levi at HOK (took out Cheese late)
Looking at using money ITB to do Tatola to Koroisau

Collecting red dots is asking for trouble. Start trading them out before they cause an issue when you have other problems to deal with.DazzaNZ wrote:No real trades needed for me (753 last week - only real letdowns were Hopgood, Cleary, Grant and Piakura - but they are all long term holds for me so will bounce back)

2. No one was referring to under 20s stats
3. Players develop over time
4. Heaps of those players who are in the same position have similar stats???
Not sure the point you were making with this post, but I'm certain you didn't make it.

I'm letting Lolo go, only because there's something fucked there in that situation and it looks like he's on the outer. Why else would you limit his minutes?
It's interesting the paths of the gun props of 5 years ago, Taumalolo is playing within himself, Taupau is struggling to make a first grade team but Papalii is looking like this season could see a resurgence. I would love to see Taumalolo play the same role as Papalii because I don't think age has got fuck all to do with it, Ricky just pumps him up and he goes to work

Got two options to roll with.
Leniu > JSaifiti. Seems pretty logical as to why.
Or a double trade
Leniu > Seyfarth (not totally convinced)
Lolo > Liddle.
Thoughts?![Basketball](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_basketball.gif)
