I see more upside in winterstien but am wary of his job security

Winterstein EASILY out of those two... but tbf I wouldn't want either of them anywhere near my team.

Very interesting

D Saifiti vs Moeroa?

Moeroa hands down, but they do not play the same position so would not be like for like

It would be like for like - i'd be moving a DPP to  the other slot.

I've done CS9 McInnes but my forwards look rubbish. FRF of Faufusi Wallace nuff nuff.
Also I put Aubo at 2RF lol

That'll make the Dugan to Dufty trade easy come round 4

Is it worth it if McInnes isn't playing 80?

My team is driving me insane

Got me thinking about Daifiti now? Maybe both of them is the answer?

Daifiti and Gallen

OR

Wallace and Mannering?

Difficult to decide between

You right. Brailey should be earning from the get go. If it's underwhelming 2 trades to get McInnes in knowing he's getting the minutes. Ughh I don't know

So wait how many people are running with Idris as an NPR? Just looking at my team and I've noticed that Idris is a scoring centre while I've left Talakai on the bench.
Makes me wonder now who should partner Sione there. Idris, Talakai or Kelly? You've got a lazy fat guy who can be really good on his day, a guy who played one game at centre for 30 points (Good shout for a cheapie centre I must say) or a highly touted rookie who may or may not be good.

I'm running Idris with multiple 40 average seasons. Seems like a no brainer to me

Captain Shaun Johnson?

Don't do it to yourself.

A. It's the Warriors and it's Round 1.
B. Captaining someone because they're playing the Knights doesn't quite work out as well as you think it will

Leota or Elliott

I was planning on having Idris as a npr

Feline wrote:Leota or Elliott

Leota if you had to choose I guess. He has some upside in that he had a good pre-season and any injury in the forward pack could up his minutes. I mean JFH got shit scores and minutes to start the year but fortune favoured him in the end.
Elliott on the other hand got dick all minutes last year and there's little chance he'll improve that this year. I wonder why Des carries a 4 forward bench anyway when he plays the 4th one for 10 minutes.

My Gf just made her team. Surprisingly its a fairly PODy team. Funny how it works like that.

Friend, Brailey
JBrom, Vaugan, Kaufusi NPR
Gallen, ET, Ma'u, Kbrom, Siro NPR
Cartwright, Sezer, Elgy, Hingano
D.walker, Idris,Talaki, Moga
RTS,Gordon,Hayne, Cotric, Phythian

She also assures me she has 60k ITB

Have been thinking along the same lines
I think he'll need some game time under his belt
