Best thing I can suggest is making a Smith + Macca/Mcinnes/Hodgson/Farah team and finding something that works for you mate

Too many variables with Brailey situation IMO

or

TTrbo + Mannering

Thoughts?

Tedesco and McGuire for me mate

Gun and teetering GUN

Who is the first gun not in your team you'll be hoping to upgrade to first?

Okay okay for all you night owls.

Smith and DSaifiti or
McInnes and Fifita??

Least you are consistent, because your Ultimate team is also in disarray.

Looks like a game of Guess Who? now or something.

This made me snort.

hmmmm not really

Tedesco 50+ always and McGuire 48 without position change and potential minutes increase

Manners 55-60 easy. TTurbo 13 game avg of 41 at FB, no teetering GUN there unless his ankle affected him that much of course, toss a coin

Standard
I'll give you this win in the first week, I'll come back stronger when my players are all fit

I can't recall who it was but they said that Tedesco likes to play slapsies. It pops into my head every time I think about trading him out haha.

McInnes, Brailey
Fifita, JWH, Kaufusi, Papalii
JDB, Gallen, ET, SMat, Siro, Yates

Looks rather healthy

It'll either be James Graham, a 2nd gun HLF or Tommy T/Teddy. Lack of good forward options means I want to shore up two gun FRF's as quickly as possible although two gun HLF's will fix one of my weaker spots while Teddy or Turbo will depend on how fast I need to get a cow out like Kelly or Cotric when they've peaked.

Who do you have out?

J. Wallace did really well in the games that he played close to 50 mins. If he can get the same minutes consistently, or better yet increased, then he has some real potential.

Is there any way of knowing how many mins the coach is looking to get out of him?

Holmes and Croker, also Gurgess to a lesser extent as I have decent FRF depth.
But my backs are looking very light

Probably a fair few mins the first couple of rounds but when the troops return it'll dwindle off a bit

I have all 4

I tend to agree with you but I've become accustomed to seeing Fifita in my team now lol

Blake or Mitchell for Croker?
