No way Xerri starts the season, but as soon as there is an injury and he is named, people will be on him like a rash.

Do you really think that the most breakable centre combination in league history, will make it through pre-season without picking up an injury?

What is the Sharks Backline??

1. Moylan
2. Katoa
3. Dugan
4. Morris
5. Gray/Feki

So once Dugan goes down RD 1 Xerri will start Rd 2

You forgot Medicare Matai

Adam Doueihi is just over 5 months post surgery after suffering an ACL rupture & cartilage injury last season. He is straight line running & will progress to direction change in coming weeks. Presence of secondary damage (cartilage injury) can restrict rehab progress initially

Jesse Bromwich all but confirmed the vacant fullback spot will be filled by either Jahrome Hughes or Scott Drinkwater. Trials will determine who gets first crack for the Storm

I always feel thirsty after seeing his name. Jahrome Hughes

West Tigers have signed Lauri Daley to their coaching staff to help mentor Luke Brooks

Also seen something on the Fantasy Rogues page saying Taumalolo has expressed his interest in playing for QLD this year.

@my tv broke Just noticed Thurston in your planner. Not sure if there are any other retirees filling the ranks.

Who will be most likely Sharks right wing? Should be the big winner outside Johnson. He gave pinpoint passes to Fusitua all season to make him top try scorer.

Pretty sure Duges and Katoa are on the right. Wont work. Duges will find a way to hog the ball.

Johnson swerves around his opposite then sends a bullet cutout pass to the winger. Duges won't see the ball.

Funny, I feel thirsty when I see Drinkwater

Fotuaika is an absolute machine. Probably has to move clubs before he becomes fantasy relevant but shows all the makings of a future gun. Plenty of big name forwards ahead of him with James, Arrow and Jwal taking big minutes along with Boyd and Proctor

Lol, the player list is straight from fanhub site

So, Roberts gets early ball, makes 50m break, brought down on 10m line. Bronx quick shift left from PTB and bird scores walk over try +8, lb +4, and TB +3. Sounds good

If the jet makes a 50m break he's not being brought down.

Unless he is up against the fox ????

Have learnt my lesson from last year spending on centres/wfb

Due to squad balance it made me miss on the likes of Fonua/Issako/Corey Thompson

Likely to start Capewell and a cheapie in the centres with atleast 1 cheap wfb to partner Edwards

I reckon Momirovski will go well for the Tigers this year. Unfortunately he did well in his 1 game last year so is too expensive for fantasy

Hodgson's best scores were in the month after his return. So on that basis you'd want him returning from injury all the time.

I feel he had better scores in 2016...
