    Just once, I would love to see a pre-season interview where a player suggests

    a) That he will be looking to have less of an impact this year
    b) That his team has no attacking game plan
    c) That thew new signings are not adjusting at all and will provide no assisstance to the team
    d) That the whole team has given up on the season already

    Don't understand the Friend pick. But that could be just me. Feel he is slotted for 60 mins only and Radley/other utility will get around 20 mins.

    How would you feel if I went Friend to Lichaa and swapping Cook into the HOK spot. Then going Hiku to Aitken/Maubbs??

    Have seen a few teams with carty starting in the halves and only croker as a backup. Im wondering if its better to pick two starting hlfs and carty on the bench and croker in the reserves. Just not sure i want Croker in my 17 if a starting hlf is out for a couple of weeks

    Lichaa yes, hiku to Aitken yes. But then that could be only because I have them.

    All I can suggest if you like him to that extent then stick with your gut and call and pick him on your extended even as an nPR. History has shown a great way of avoiding burning a trade plus instant differential when he appears. If he’s in TLT 13 he will be in every team so you prob prefer him not and dragons get off to a slow start

    Yeh valid point.....cmon TLT

    Any reason for why you think that or just a gut feel?
    Friend has played pretty much 80 minutes pretty consistently for a while now. Don't know why they would change that.

    Ideally, Croker is probably not in your playing 17

    Realistically, having him in your playing 17 allows more money to be spent upgrading elsewhere. Just have to take a punt on if the trade off is worth it.

    Played 8 games back end of 2016

    Scores of 10, 4, 46, 35, 19, 38, 36, 24, 15

    The first 2 he played 24 and 9 minutes respectively, everything else was 80 minutes starting centre.

    He is missing from my 2018 team planner, will have a check later, might have been called Thomas at some point or something silly like that.
