Niukore, thoughts?

Brad Arthur has said its his for the taking.. and the 80mins is his if he can produce.

I have gone Smith. Should be a good game.

I'm an advocate for not choosing based on player match-up

If Arrow was nailed on for 65+ minutes I wouldn't hesitate but that and injuries are worrying me
Smith against the Roosters is for some reason worrying me, and see first comment
Fifita against the Warriors where simialr tackle busting big lads, Taupau and TLolo have gone bananas against but knee worries and game time

Smith the safest so will likely stick with him

Ayshford, Vete and Maumalo dropped from the Warriors squad.

Luke and Hiku still hanging around. Surely they will both play.

Abbeys stats are impressive scoring 12 tries in 12 games in the ISP with 7 TAs. Avging 2.5 tbs a game 102m a game for 37.8 points at fullback.

Seems excellent but that average would include a try every game + linebreaks and try assists which you would think isn't sustainable in the big league

How about you give this one a go instead

Even I lol’d. So would the great man. He’s got a terrific sense of humour. One of the best.

So all the hope for Cotric and he doesn't even get the gig haha.

Don't the Roosters play more down the edges than through the middle. This could affect Smith's tackle count.

Is SJ an option for captaincy or too ballsy?

Never again.

Abbey can just phuck right off haha. I remember his scores of 10 where he looked scared shitless.

He's a CTR in VSDT and Supercoach

Moeroa is back from suspension in a couple of weeks.
Depends if he replaces Taka, Niukore or neither

I think Smith will still bust out a safe 60 odd.

Im captaining Ponga. YIEEEEWWWWS

I’m captaining SJ. He gonna bust out an 85

With no Farah ever again, surely Cook becomes the greatest fantasy prospect in the history of the game? Fuck off Wobbie
