    I had a glance at him but will he be getting a spot starting? I'm also worried about his versatility mid game affecting his scores  

    If he's fit he'll start. Had some injury concerns last 12 months, so that would be the chief limiting factor.

    He is a mini-Aubusson for mid game reshuffles, but odds are Chris Lawrence will be in the squad too so who knows.

    Ahh true and its not stubborn Jason Taylor to purposely not move Lawrence mid game too!

    I see him averaging 35 Milch, you? That is decent value but it's who he would dethrone in people's teams.

    Sione Katoa is conspicuous by his absence at this stage or am I missing something?
    Dirt cheap in supercoach so may be a handy emergency as a centre/winger.

    Also what's the go with Suli? Does he get a start at the Bulldogs and worth a look? Also who takes his spot at the Tigers?

    How I see it is that he'll only get a run if Ricky goes off to the Titans. Otherwise you would think Gray gets the vacant backline spot

    Nofo and Lolo locked in so was always a tussle between Milne/Naiquama/Fonua/Suli/Marsters to fill the other 3 outside back possies so maybe 2 at Rookie price instead of 1 now.  Corey Thompson in the mix as well but haven't heard about training the house down.

    As far as Suli at the Dogs, my humble opinion is he is already sounding like he will never live up to the hype.

    Sione Katoa (the sharks winger) is not in the system yet, so very few people have him in their teams right now.

    Suli won't be playing for a while, not until he sheds 20kgs and gets over his injury

    Something like this would be a popular 17

    Lodge Alvaro
    Murray Arrow Brown
    Croft Watson
    Milne Hiku

    I'm thinking more and more about putting Croft in. I missed what Bellamy said about rotating the jumper but it's hard to see that. Jacks isn't great as a playmaker and Hughes seems to be more suited to fullback. Croft seems the logical choice and going by his performances last year it's hard to look past him.

    Hi all, there are a couple of spots available in my overall league for a couple of consistent players. If you have finished inside the top 100 at least once in the last two seasons and the top 200 in the other then feel free to join. First in first served. Had a couple of withdrawals due to Elmos.

    Will Robbie Rochow get a starting spot at the Tigers? I know Taylor, and Lawrence are most likely ahead. But I can see McQueen being more likely off the bench as he is a better impact player.

    Struggling to reply to my original message, being blind it's bloody hard to navigate at times. Thanks to those two players who have joined MyLeague. Cheers

    I highly doubt Rochow will even make the 17. He couldn't hold onto a spot at the Rabbitohs and they have equally bad forward depth

    Cronk 40-45 Croft 35-50

    Thurston 40-50 Moses 35-40

    I think Croft will go upper echelons if the rest talk is bollocks, so I prefer the first option.

    I concur with Alfie. Rochow will be in reserve grade
