Still NFI, but instead of Moses and Cotric, I currently have Duncan, Galvin and 380k.

Don't love it. Don't hate it tbh

Jokes on you, loci aren't in our syllabus because QLD is a braindead state compared to NSW!

I do not care at all for this arrangement, which is completely and utterly wrong, and I want it known now and henceforth that the proper positioning is to have your highest priced player to the left, moving right in descending order of price. There is a particular bug in my fantasy app (and maybe yours too, who knows) where if I try to swap a player from right to left it just plain doesnt work, but if try to swap them from left to right it works just fine. Some would say this is merely a glitch, but I think that in my Fantasy team there is a clear hierarchy where a higher calibre player needs to give their permission to move down a tier. I think this conclusively proves that the biggest gun goes to the far left, and that any fantasy delinquents who put their guns in middle for nothing more than aesthetic taste are harbingers of chaos who should repent on their ne’er-do-well ways and start ordering your players in a proper civilised manner before your blasphemous positioning choices cause the downfall of society.

Slight chance he gets a decent amount of kick metres next to Katoa

If so you get a 40 odd point WFB with a high floor that plays all 3 big byes for 500k

Since the head honcho Rabbits masterfully keeps complete segregation and anonymity amongst his agents, even from each other, nobody but he really knows the full scope of his organisation. Wouldn’t it be such a believable plot twist if the Rabbits 9 was really the Rabbits 32 and nobody was nearly as special as they thought.

Pookus McFly wrote:Not much talk about Liddle. I thought his deal was always that he just never got the big minutes, and it seems like he finally has a coach willing to play him for them. Historical average of 48 when getting 65 minutes, 52 when getting 70 minutes. Has some injury history, is that what is spooking people?

He's a lock for me this week. Seems to be flying under the radar somewhat with all the other shiny toys.
Dragons looked sharp and Flanagan appears to trust Liddle with big minutes. You are right in that, when he has had the minutes he performs well.
Should comfortably get 50-55 points if he maintains the high mins, which at his current price, makes him a better buy than Fogarty (unless you believe Fog is really SJ reincarnated)

Kick Souths out of the comp for ruining a top 3 lock in the game

God I love me a good old fashioned arbitrary gang

I ended up going with Tuaupiki in my team, kind of thinking ahead to not play Cotric in this round (which is now a non-issue anyway) so I'm okay for WFB this week, but I have no CTR cover now and will definitely be strongly considering Talau next week if he looks at home in the Eagles squad this weekend.

I'm rolling out the Burbo/Strange combo and I'm hoping this week sheds some light on whether Talau might actually be a better playing option than Strange, as they hopefully both make some coin.

I am however wondering if Cheese is still a viable trade in option or even just take Smithies this week and hope for the best next week.
