I think to start the season Arrow is the most underpriced of the Elite options but his injuries last year are a big concern, he had so many niggles during games last year which makes him a risk! I really like Ofa but there’s a fair amount of value in that donkeys pack, Gillett, Fifita potentially can make some huge gains! Pangai is 50+ potential, role dependant. Macca will also be my starting Hooker mate.

Would love to have the confidence to pick Arrow as my gun fwd and make him captain. Just seems to get injured alot and dont think the big mins are guaranteed like jake t or Critchon

Yeah wishing you all the best mate. If there is anything us as a community can do for you, definitely don't hesitate to ask.

All the best to you, Steve. Thanks for all your work on the game, but put yourself and your family first, mate.

I think I might hold out from picking either Munster/Drinkwater/Hughes for the first 4-5 rounds. I think bellyache will tinker a fair bit with the FB spot for the first few rounds to see how the spine works with each player. He won’t get enough time to do so in the trial games. Only one I would pick is Hughes as he is cheaper than Munster and has more security over Drinkwater, plus he has the ability to bang out 40-50’s whether at 1 or 6.

Reason I'm happy to go with Munster if named at 1 is his floor at 6. Even if he moves back to the halves he is still nearly keeper tier. If he stays at 1 he will end the highest averaging fullback

Yeah all the best Steve. I had some small intenstine and half my liver out as well, six years ago. No chemo fortunately. Scary time, but you just get on with it hey? And there's plenty of guys to do the heavy lifting in fantasy - it kinda ranks lower down the list of priorities, Take care mate.

Glad to hear you're doing well. I don't mind the treatments and surgeries - I'm pretty good at not working!

Wayne Bennett isn’t messing around. Brutal training session out at Redfern today. Cook and GI could not have spoken more highly of the Super Coach. Inglis also confirms he wants to play fullback

Fuck that. Today is one of those rare days that I don't envy NRL players one bit.

Inglis also confirms he wants to be a role model and get his licence back

Lol MTB.

There is pr9bably a solid chance he gets there if AJ doesn't fire the first few weeks. Walker could end up there as a way to get Douhei involved.

I think GI is dreaming. His body can't handle the demands of f/b. All that aerobic running with his knee issues.

Didn't Wayne say that Inglis had first crack at fullback if he wanted it? Seems like he'll be starting there rd1.

I thought the reason GI moved to ctr from f/b was because he said his knee couldn't handle all the running at f/b. But if he's confident that he can handle it then good on him.
