Cheers. He'll be priced at 42.9. If you pick him up, you'd be punting that he can improve that to 50 otherwise there's no point. Certainly possible.

I think the broncos bench will be rotated a lot around haas, staggs, cardigan, Fifita, gibisaki, o’sullivan. This will all definitely be based on injury and opponent.
PS. Seebs has expressed his want for an out and out half back so I expect an early/mid season trade involving nikorima

Jack Wighton has said he will be playing 5/8 this year. Leaves a spot open for abbey or Cotric at fb full time

Sezer the KM then? But seriously how annoyed must Hingano be.. Left the warriors for opportunities then Johnston skedaddles off and he misses a half spot to Wighton of all people

Hingano's injured. Out for six months.

I bet Lino is most annoyed because he was in front of Hingano. So Lino goes to the Knights to play reserve grade & then SJ leaves. Life like fantasy is all about timing.

If they wanted to ease Croker back in after his ACL and take some pressure off, Sezer could find himself with the kicking tee, add in dominant half with bulk KM's and would be a great pick. Lot of ifs though.

In 2017 when Morgan had his good 2nd half of season, his five-eighth was TMM who doesn't kick much. Clifford has a great kicking game both short and long. If TMM gets the nod Morgan is straight into my team, but if it's Clifford, more thought will be required.

doesn't Sezer usually injure himself if he has to sprint more than 20 mtrs

Is there an easy way to determine what positions a player was named at each round last year?

What DPPs will you have for the four emergency players... I’m thinking:

1. 2RF/FRF
2. 2RF/FRF
3. HOK/HLF
4. WFB/CTR

Won’t be over thinking it but how would you structure your whole interchange (bench + emergencies)

Hello and Welcome

Hard to say really. I lot of people would argue coverage is over-rated and picking the right players is more important. It also depends on what cheapies are available which we won't know for a while yet. My intention is to focus on getting the right players and probably no more than two WFB/CEN in the emergencies preferably only one with dpp and at least one for every other position.

It really depends on the cheapies available and how heavy I go with guns. Ideally I will have FRF/HOK/2RF covered in the initial interchange bench. Meaning I just need a CTR/WFB DPP and maybe a HLF.

My positions 14-17 I have all forwards & as many dpp's I can fit in
My positions 18-21 are my cash cows & I like all backs there because usually a bench forward gets 20-30 minutes whereas as a rookie winger for example will play 80 mins so you make more cash this way.

Try this, last year it showed positions but so far this year its not fully up to date

There might be other sites, I don't know. I keep my own records and update them 5 min before kick-off

CHT, RTS, and Lil Pap look the goods here. Pap priced at 38 according to NRL.com so that means the magic number is roughly 14,500. Its weird pap is 14,868 and tevaga is 14,260 so yeah 14,500 if you're wondering what a players price is points wise.

Have they got smart and assigned a different magic number for different positions ?
