Is Aubusson worth the price? I've been seriously considering Bowen or even Inglis.
Just not liking centres this season.

Buhrer should replace Barnett/Fitzgibbon when he comes on. Heighington and Saifiti will be in the prop rotation replacing Ese'ese and Lillyman, Lamb to come on on the halves, Watson to hooker, Griffin to bench but you don't want Watson playing longer than 20 minutes at hooker IMO so Griffin should see 55-60 minutes.
Should I just get arrow instead of griffin? Should get decent minutes wherever he ends up playing

LB I'd choose Whitehead personally, bias comes into it of course.
@Welshy, whats your team lad? I wonder if we've got ANY of the same players...

Buderus on NRL 360 tonight said that the Knights rated Griffins skill level highly, including kicking out of dummy half. Definitely seems like he could be worth it, especially with 5% ownership.

Arrow is tricky because who gets benched when Wallace is back Latu or Arrow? If it's Arrow then Griffin > Arrow

Still am of the belief Arrow starts over Latu when Wallace returns.

Eh, I've gotten by most seasons without picking blokes i think are absolute flogs. I could say its why I've never won the thing, but i think we all know theres plenty of other reasons holding me back.
Also, i just don't think he's the sure thing everyone makes him out to be. Always tends to be one hugely popular cheapy who winds up a flop, why not be that dickhead. Happy enough with my team (you might have missed it earlier).
I took Lodge to the footy a few times when he was approx 12/13 yo. Remember him saying he wanted to play 1st grade. Who doesnt at that age, been interesting though following his ahhh... journey.

He can also play second row if needed.
Honestly if Griffin has got the gig over Levi now I don't see why it will change anytime soon unless Griffin starts the season poorly. Levi really isn't anything special IMO.

Deadset, Gallen gaining ground on Slater in his 1st try ever, replay of 2003 Slaters debut game on fox atm. Gallen looking like a beastly centre.
Anyone remember Beattie of the sharks in this era ? Man he is a blowback...

Plus Griffin has been under the wing of the best, Smith. The apprentice will be a great cow imo.

There aren't too many reasons not to have all three.

Isnt everyone scared of the dual hooker madness which has taken over Nrl teams the last couple of years ? How come most seem calm with thay possibility now ? Its rampant.

Thinking i'm all but settled on a final team
Smith (c)
Arrow Lodge
Brown Carty RFM
Cro-nk/ft
Aubbs GI
Teddy Ponga Katoa
Rochow Griffin Cook Fualalo
Kikau Nicholls Croker Isaako
a little worried i've spread things a bit too evenly, but it should allow me some options to be able to move things around if i've hit some rocks
