Next year how would you rate the 3 premium fullbacks. I'm excluding Ponga assuming he's in the halves:
(a) Tedesco 778k
(b) Turbo 716k
(c) Holmes 614k

The late season surge of Holmes with gk & cheaper than Tedesco & Turbo by at least 100k makes him the one to start with. Lucky that Holmes' price is based on his season average because if had of based it on the last 10 games he'd be over 800k so you could say he's undervalued. Holmes does start each season slowly but I think that's because he's usually on the wing & has the odd game at f/b. But this year he's really made the f/b position his own & has now fully adapted to it so I think his inconsistency is a thing of the past.

I prefer Edwards over all 3 as far as value for money is concerned. Tedesco I see as pay for what you get, Turbo inconsistent so price will be lower at some point in the season and Holmes is reliant on probable unsustainable try scoring form

Threw together a 13 but it would mean my 14-21 would be full of base price players lol

Friend
Surgess Paulo
Crichton Murray Difita
Matterson Clifford
Ferguson Capewell
Holmes Edwards Hughes

Who do we reckon will lose or gain DPP?

I think Matterson will lose half
Mann, Walker, JMK, Gagai WFB
Surgess, Kikau, Arrow, Papalii, Tolman, Rochow FRF
Mitchell centre
Korisau Half
Griffon, Marsters. Wallace, Bolton, May 2RF

Surely they have to raise the salary cap of $9.4m in fantasy because the way the prices are it's pretty impossible getting a decent team. You'll be relying on putting 7-8 bottom dollar players in your team or else not getting any guns at all & having mainly mid range players.

Does anyone know the fantasy scores for this weekend ?

I think you have to go to a stats site & add them up yourself but I don't know the best stat site. Unless one of the boys on here has done it already.

I haven't had a look at how the pricing is stacking up for next year, but what you suggest sounds pretty interesting to me. Looking forward to all the talk of Evans and Moeroa being good buys

Would just make those first few weeks so much more crucial though, to get the right guys in.
