I think he's a good pick plus he's a dpp but it will depend on whether his minutes increase in 2017. He will have a full off season training at lock so he might get more minutes. However he will play origin so he will have to be traded out before round 12 so it will depend if you want to burn a trade doing so. Personally I'm thinking of taking a punt on Kasiano for some bizarre reason.

Did you see the photo I posted a couple of weeks ago? Kas has been training the house down.

Kas looked fit as, not sure why they would change his role though.

I would like to request a change of your avatar for 2017... just sayin'

Your current avatar interupts my train of thought too often....

Hahaha suck shit Rousey. You fucking amateur.

Just saw the clip of her getting smashed. She's lost all confidence & just isn't competitive.

Anyone else thinking with the likelihood that squads will have lots of midrangers or question mark cows, keeping say 100k handy to upgrade/downgrade duds and jump on movers a good idea?

I'm not starting with C. Smith. Yeah, I said it.

That would be sensible however I am not & will spend every cent. You only need 20-40k if you want to take that approach.

Anyone know the salary cap amount. Thanks.

7 million

Okay Broncos boys on here. Is A. Glenn on the radar this year if he starts as an edge forward. Tough opening games with plenty of defense could see him scoring well.

He's been in my team since I read a comment on an Eels forum that King had been running at hooker in all the drills during pre season. The only problem with King is he's injury prone but @ 138k & starting hooker I'm not complaining.

Cameron King in 2015 and 2014, played 4 games for the cowboys.

Averaged 26 minutes for scores of 22, 11, 20 and 0.


In 2013 he played 11 games for the Dragons.
Averaged 21 points in 34 minutes 

In 2012 he played 5 games for the Dragons.
Averaged 11 points in 23 minutes.


Across all 4 years his highest fantasy score is 31 (round 10, 2013 when he got 56 minutes as starting hooker against Parramatta)


Assuming he is sharing time with someone like De Gois, I would be careful about what sort of expectations you have from him.

He's so cheap he might still be worth a punt - but he's no Garvey/Parcell

Cheers Milchy. I probably won't play him much & just leave him in my npr's. At that price even if he scores in the 25-35 range he'll make 100-200k profit (correct me if I'm wrong). Just put him in your npr's for the first game & see what minutes/scores he gets.

My mate and I put $500 on Nunes by knock out. We both said knock out first round but didn't think inside a minute

Any Warrior fans or anyone know who will be 5/8 for them? Threw a team together with Smith and Peats as the hookers , came in $2000 under the cap not brilliant but killed some idle time after taking a swim with the family, it does however include Tuimoala Lolohea as a third fullback.

Ata Hingano is earmarked for the job, but could well be Lolohea. Hingano is a good player and should compliment Johnson well. I think Leailua is still hanging around though, but he's useless imo.
