I think he will be an 80 minute hooker.

From this I think Kennar could be a good op if he one day moves to centre and I'm quite sure Cook will play 80 if he trains hard

Why would Nu Brown move to the Bulldogs if he doesn't make the 17. If he does start at halfback I don't see them leaving Frawley out

He could be a decent cheaper centre option if he can snag a starting spot and with Gray and Goodwin gone he very well could, just depends on Hunt. He does have DPP too.

Get in my team Maubs you sexy bitch.

at the risk of being universally shunned by the forum, i prefer this look over the old one, no drag and drop is annoying but not a deal breaker and it probably could use a bit of colour, but it looks nice and clean and i love that the entire team fits on screen at the same time, no more constant scrolling up and down the page when i'm trying to figure trades out.

anyway ended up with:

Smith
NAS Lodge
Brown Harris Cartwright
JT Cronk
Milne Opacic
Teddy Ponga Inglis

Cook Arrow Garvey Evans
Butcher Isaako Kikau Croker

for a first draft, no real need to fiddle around further until some games are played

beast*. He's too handsome to deserve any disrespect

Been plenty of talk from Pay that Lichaa will be told to play his natural game and be a far bigger part of the team in 2018

even if he gets 65 minutes, Lichaa should be good for 40 points

A lot of players move for various reasons he wouldn't be the first player to move clubs and not play

Wasn't he getting 40-45 when playing 80 plus he's priced at 36 points. 40 points isn't good enough.

average last year when he played over 60 minutes was 46

if he gets 80 Lichaa will smash 40 points

If he does play 80 I think I'll find it pretty hard to leave him out

Before half time

[quote="Alfie"]Does Kennar have DPP?[/quote

Yep.

I think he has to be in my team then

Alfie wrote:I think he has to be in my team then

At least you know the capability for him to play 80 is there and has scored well in the past

His role is important as we all know, i would think Brown has the bench spot to spell either Lichaa or Frawley/Cleeland depending on gameflow

headache selections for every position but half.
Not really sold on anybody in the halves tbh

Same here. I've appeared confident with Cronk and Watson in posts previous but to be honest I'm not confident about either of them. Especially Cronk

That article about Austin playing hooker did not actually say he'd start at hooker. It said Garvey/Havili would start, Williams on bench & later on in the game Austin would spell Garvey/Havili & Williams would come on at hlf.

Why would they wanna try shit like that? Exhibit A: the Bulldogs
