When I first saw the 9's squad from South's and without the likes of Surgess, GI and Sutton - I thought Reynolds might have been the only Top 5 player in their squad....and now he has withdrawn.

Not saying it is necessarily a conspiracy to bypass the rules..........all I'm suggesting is that Souths are clearly cheating cunts.

jeez. the cowboys have gone all out with their 9s squad. it seems like fate that we (bronx) will lose to them in another final.

Arey breaking down already... hmmm how much was Cody Walker again?....

is it silly to have SioneMat in your side as a 2rf and move him to ctr (provided he is a reliable scorer) later in the year?

given there are a couple of cheap options such as idris in the ctrs who should make some money.

or is sionemat only a selection if you put him at ctr.

i will definitely have him (as i assume most will), but im considering starting BJ Leilua as well.

That's where I have in. Once the ctr cows mature move him to the ctrs & buy another 2fr.

I had a premonition and got sick on Sunday.

The biggest thing for me is the opening will just confirm player prices (and ones such as idris).

I've stared at my current lineup in the UAT site for long enough i can probably recreate it from memory.

then i will continue to stare at it until some trials and teamlists throw spanners in works.

I haven't even looked at prices thus far. I'll be struggling to maintain my position in the top 10,000 this year if I don't get some prep in

On leave!

If... I mean... When Arey is sidelined this season due to injury, who will fill in in the halves?

This was mentioned in one of the early threads.

Looks like there will be a few startable CTRs much cheaper than Sione (eg Idris). Cheap startable second rowers are also looking a little thin on the ground - people are filling their team at the moment with guys like Arrow, Hess, and a few others that need TLT to be kind for them to be useful in fantasy terms.


Trials and team lists might throw up a few more viable cheap 2RFs. But at the moment it looks more cost effective to have Sione in 2RF and a sub $200k CTR than have Sione in CTR and a sub $200k 2RF

How many of us are going to have a late night tonight?? I'm assuming it launches at midnight??

So is that tomorrow night midnight or tonight midnight? Haha

Due to the vagueness of the post by lonescout I was assuming some time between 6pm and 10pm the fantasy site will open (tomorrow night)

We only have two spots left in League 3 of the NRL Fantasy Fanatics Ultimate League draft competition. The scoring structure is very similar to NRL Fantasy so it easy to adapt to. We will be looking at kicking off the draft on Monday 6th of Feb.

If you are interested have a geez at the Ultimate League and sign up!
