    Who is the one with better prospects?

    Yates has better NYC stats and has played a year of NSW cup. Plays in the middle, Stone on the edge.

    Pearce's KM could be affected next to Keary. Connor Watson was in great form but he kicked the ball only a bit more than what TMM did. He's in Gun HLF territory but overpriced for now. Fergo's not a great defender, misses a lot of tackles. Form was really good but not enough to see any big improvement. Cordner's a nice POD, makes prop like metres every week but better players above his price, more value for cash players below him.  
    I personally think Guerra and Aubo are the best value players for the Chooks. They call him the Black Widow but I tell you with Matterson on the bench Aubo is staying parked in the 2RF

    Matterson will definitely cover an injury in the backs but in a regular game I would expect him to come on for Aubbo. I highly doubt Matterson will be spending time at lock. Maybe Matterson comes onto Cordners edge and Cordner pushes to the middle. IIRC he spent some time in the middle a few years back

    100% agree on Panthers
    way i see it fella....

    TMM 20 tackles 50 RM base (25) - needs 10-15 points a game attacking to get to 35-40

    Lamb 20 tackles 50 RM  250-300 KM base (35-40) already at TMM without attacking input

    Just think its easier for Lamb to get fantasy points than TMM who also has a shed load of cracking attacking plaers to share attacking duties with.

    I'm a base stat whore!

    Absolutely no way Lamb kicks 250-300 a week with a fit and firing Hodko next to him. And I'm struggling to see the Knights as an attacking team this year (again) so unlike the Panthers where there'll be opportunities a plenty for their attacking players, Lamb will struggle (although may be the only bit of attacking flair they have so may potentially do something more than nothing).

    I'm not arguing that Lamb is def the safer bet but I'd be prepared for an avatar bet that TMM outpoints him for the year.

    Just went through and checked PGC's 2015 season review.

    Not only did he start the year without Cam Smith (didn't trade him in until round 15)

    He also started with Mitchell Aubusson.

    Make of that what you will.

    Why not? If the Knights will be as bad as the were last year there will be more than 600KM a game to go around and Hodko has never been a massive KM eater.

    I'l take that bet as long as it doesn't affect all my other avatar bets Laugh 3

    I miss the old days for fantasy where we had the little jersey rather than an awkwardly large photo

    Hampton is the biggest no that ever no'd this year.

    As a bench hooker he is overpriced, and is likely to lose you money. Averages 14.3 from the bench, priced at 16.2

    Exactly what I was going to say no reason why they can't get 300km each

    Lamb has played next to Hodkinson twice. Kicked for 400m and 253m

    Small sample sizes have killed many fantasy decisions in the past, but the signs are promising
