Thanks for the break down on Dufty, I just read that Farah most likely won't be in the 17 so that makes it worth keeping Cook i guess?

Might just keep JBrom and swap out Dufty for Murray so I have a few money making 2rf that should all get some good value out of.

Means I will only have 1 wfb/ctr cover and that is Kennar. (So many rabbit players now).

He did last year.  Peachy only came into the centres when Whare broke his jaw.

White Lightning wrote:I don't think Dufty's stats from 2017 should be used as a guide on how he'll go this year. Last year he was told not to run back the football but just to give it to the wingers due to his inexperience & lack of size. He has added a bit of size this year & will get more return metres & this was played out last week where he ran for 200 metres. Also this year they have 2 quality halves added to a massive forward pack & new attacking structures which will bring Dufty into the play more often. Last year he only played 7 games at the back end of the season when the team was out of form whereas this year he's had a full pre season to work on combinations & if the Dragons start anything like they did last year then Dufty should get plenty of opportunities.

I don't have the stats but he was on the bench for a large chunk of the season.  Some games he wouldn't come on until the second half.  Blake and Whare are Griffin's first choice centres.

I read it as "Teddy isn't happy they don't pass him the ball in every attacking play"

I think Hiku is a perfectly reasonable 3rd WFB and offers good DPP flexibility. Might be needed at second centre now however with Milne not playing
