Bargain

I'll have the current incumbent fantasy god as my captain

and the higher averaging Cook on my bench!

Don't forget to include Farah in your team so you can have the bloke who causes your high average benchy to only play half the games.

You cleverly left out JTurbo from your captaincy options.

Anyone under Macca I didn't include mate

In Cook's rookie year, he was the highest averaging player in the game.

He only played 3 games (as injury replacement for Lichaa) but he cracked 60 each time.

I am aware of that. So do you think he will or are you just

Does Joey help out the halves?

OK here goes!

Just say you were a cannibal...

Would your prefer to be an endocannibal, eating people with in your own tribe.... or an exocannibal killing and eating people from other tribes???

A cow that eats FRF doesn't care.

Is Lodge really worth including in my team?

Know this is a jab but just re-inforces how important Smith is

Cook bombs and no Smith, tough to re-jig
Cook doesn't bomb, he is a mid range priced gun and on most benches with Smith still the bets captaincy option

Can @Ironclad Galahad @Harviginald and @kelvinkelvin check their PMs and join L8 and the overall

Please and thank you!

Gee, we're headed towards a party and I have nothing to bring.

I don't think Cook will out average Cam Smith (unless injury impacts the average)

I think he'll be a very good fantasy scorer, even with Farah around

I am firmly in the 'Smith 1st picked for captain' camp, but I'm actually looking forward to a Fantasy season where he isn't an option. Will make things much more interesting, choosing from say Teddy, Fifita, Taumalolo, de Belin etc should be more of crap shoot = more fun.

I went through my team earlier trying to work hard at identifying the negatives of all my players and work out who the potential traps are. And I couldn't come up with much for Lodge other than he's only got one more chance in the NRL and if he sends a dick pick to someone or whatever he's out. I think he's cleaned up his act though and if it goes bad everyone will have him so it doesn't really matter.

Yeah I'm hoping Farah will be named on the bench round one to reduce his ownership. I don't expect it to last for long.

OK new question... Is this a decent joke?

So after Steve Irwin's untimely death, the QLD government eventually had to take over the management of his animals as the place was going backwards

Unfortunately the decided to sell nearly all the assets (the animals), which continued until the place only had one animal left, a dog.

It was a shitzu!

I've heard that joke before with a different setup but same punchline. Pretty sure it was actually on footy show or Matty Johns.

Yeah i was thinking about this in our draft his year. Will certainly change a lot of things, obviously 1st pick might not be so obvious any more, but added to which are the hookers even lower in depth and so become more important even at the cost of missing out on higher scorers (Lolo etc) in other positions?

I prefer the short and sweet version. "I went to the zoo the other day, only had one dog, it was a shitzu".
Much like "Two nuts went walking in the forest, one was a salted"

Predictions for 228k or 212k players:
Highest round 1 score?
Best long term job security in 1st grade?
Who makes the most cash by season end?
