I actually don't have any Roosters players
Surely you wait for first TLT then do draft, really uneven through luck otherwise

Its funny because every time he got a run at the Dogs/Warriors he looked good (especially from a fantasy point of view)
He must be a poor trainer or something because they hardly ever seemed to use him, and it took him a while (and injuries) to finally get a run at Manly
I felt sorry for him at the Warriors & I think they didn't give him a fair go. When I saw him play for the Bulldogs before he went to the Warriors he looked a decent player. By the way in 2016 the Warriors & Bulldogs did a player switch RFM to Bulldogs & Lane to Warriors.

Agreed, I really want him to start, bit of a Fantasy crush on him.

Capewell - should start but either as 1 of your ctrs or bench. With Graham injured for a couple of months Capewell will be 80 min edge.
Sorenson/Nikora - L. Lewis retired so one of Sorenson/Nikora/Bukuya will start. If Sorenson doesn't start & is on bench then no. If Nikora doesn't start but is named on reserves then get him as a npr.
D. Fifita - probably starts on bench so he's a no. I think Su'a/Glenn more of a chance to be in the starting 13.
Gillett - will start but will he get 80 mins with all the young guns like Fifita/Haas wanting more minutes from the bench. imo Gillet is a wait & see based on the fact that he is coming off a long-term injury & question marks over his minutes.
S. Lane - The Eels are like the Warriors i.e. players who go there regress. That's right Lane did go to the Warriors & ended up in reserve grade. Lane got a lot of tries/attacking stats at Manly where he had great players like DCE/Turbo/Jurbo setting him up. Will he get the same service with Moses/Gutherson/etc. Plus if the Eels go with a 4 forward bench will Lane get 80 mins because they have a fair few forwards.
Stimson - definite yes.
I. Papalii - Yes I do like him as a player. There were rumours he was going to replace Mannering at lock but now the rumour is that Burr will. I think I. Papalii will be on the edge. I'm not sure if he'll play 80 mins because he is young & still developing.
L. Leilua - yes but only if he starts on the edge but that would require JDB to get suspended which I don't think will happen.
C. Murray - definite yes.
Whitehead - I'm unsure on him because the Raiders have so many forwards but I'd say he'll play 80 minutes on edge. The latest at the Raiders is that Tapine/J. Papalii are training in the middle to open up an edge for J. Bateman.

Is he actually training the house down enough to start on an edge (in which case James takes big middle minutes), or does he play significant bench minutes at 13, or is he barely used? I also wonder how they're going to use Peachey. Looks like he's not going to be half, so is he centre (fine for Arrow) or roving bench backrow (less good for Arrow).
Tl;dr, wait for teamlists.
