Talakai is not being benched this week (nobody can say for sure in the future). Hymel Hunt will be out due to concussion. Burns to wing, Jennings to cover Hunt and AJ at FB. Simples.

It is to early Beaver, even if u have cashies they arent ripe for picking yet. And anyone dumping someone to generate cash already is doing it based off one rounds effort.
How long were you in Vegas ?

After being burnt so many times in the past, this is the first year I've started with him.....
Anyway early days and even if it is pissing down Captain Cam could still pull off a big score

Anyone help with this? The Talakai benching adds to the worry.
I would go Pythian to Moga if you can in 1 trade. Then Play Moga and Kelly/Idris/Talakai in that order. Should all score around 20-30 so take your pick. Sacrifising a few points here an there for a no brainer trade of Pythian to Moga shouldn't worry you. At least you will have a stacked pack.

Hate seeing injuries like this. Always bad when you get smashed on the left side of your face but the blood is coming out of the right. Even worse when the offending party had been practicing.

AJ is a shit fullback, you know it, I know. It all depends who they plug at fullback and the implications extend from there. Walker or Cook before AJ is my guess.

Yeah mate, you're right, a bit silly considering all the what ifs. Moga looked good and I can definitely do it in 1 trade. It fucks my DPP, but I guess Moga has potential to become even a keeper centre, so would kill me if I missed out. I'll obviously have to play Moga and will play Talakai if not benched and then just go Kelly if he and Idris gets benched.

The two times I swayed from Cam Smith as captain I got burnt last year. Fifitas 30 odd and not sure what the other one was.
Actually hope Smith has another stinker then people jump off him, spread the cash and miss his scores for the next 11 rounds.

This gives confidence.
I didn't see the Storm game last week, but doesn't wet conditions mean more up the middle play and more tackles. I understand not much attack, but Cam should be able to get 45+ tackles. I think he should still crack 50 quite easily.

AJ is a FB playing on the wing and has only been used as a back up FB in a team constantly undergoing changes due to injury now GI is gone for the year I think he will be name fullback and its up to him now to run with it or go under, I am willing to see how he goes back there given time - just hope Madge sees it the same way.

They will play AJ at fullback. He used to play there for Australian Schoolboys didn't he?

I had a look into it, and I would like to know from the Musgrove pushers, why he is a better prospect than Matagi based on stats and Round 1 results. Seems to be super popular here, much more so than Matagi, but doesnt seem to have any more up-side than Matagi

I'm damn certain Madge has already said that AJ will be playing at FB. It may have even been the interview he did that was uploaded to the Rabbitohs website.

Why not both? [I do] If I had to pick one over the other it would be Matagi. Higher Ceiling, Bye Coverage, Points.

I agree. I've gone JDB C this week but thinking along the same lines re CS9

Matagi had near career best game ppm wise 0.87 (don't know what his best ppm is but averages below that playing less minutes) History doesn't suggest he will maintain that. If he does owners will be doing very well
