I hope not because I cant spell that and i'll never be able to talk about him

Drafting mitchell in instead of teddy means i can really strengthen another otherwise weak spot. Very tempting to go down this path. Does latrell really kick on this year? Need to read some hype up/house down articles about him

Yeah I got him penciled in for 60s this season...

This in reference to him starting tomorrow? Good signs he'll be the 9 in rnd 1 imo.. but be surprised if he plays enough mins to be worth it?

Toohey just tweeted that this is exactly their plan

I keep gravitating towards Matt Scott. I've never really thought much of him fantasy wise but you'd think he'd be in for a decent season. Lolo and McLean the obvious minute takers.

I'm also trying to come up with who will be this years so called underpriced DSaifiti and 'the alpha prop'!

I don't think I've seen Dugan mentioned here at all. Has he fallen that badly that he's not even an option in a tricky CTR position (and with DPP to boot)?

Scott did crack the fantasy ton a couple of years ago didn't he?

The guy is a gun but he just loves an injury so much.

105 I believe.

Hes too hard to watch when hes in your team. Always gets up gingerly and wincing from a tackle. My heart cant take it

Be very wary as he's already had 2-3 set backs (little niggles) in pre season training already.

I didn't know that mate, thank you. I think that's enough for me to steer clear.

Its not just the injury worry. If he plays centre then his scores don't just justify his price.

If nails down the fullback role then he may be worth a look (if you can handle watching him get tackled)

I have a sneaky positive feeling towards Luciano Leilua nailing a starting spot in the dragons 13

Who would he take a spot off? The vacant 2nd rower spot?

Just made a team without Smith (fifita captain) - have to say I'm less impressed with the depth than I'd hoped. I was thinking I'd be able to get a couple of extra guns, but as it is I can't see much upside not to have CS9

Yes, that would be my guess

I read an article recently ( I can't remember where ) talking to Tyson Frizell who said Leilua was the most talented footballer at the club. Got me interested.
