You know for a fact that’s exactly what happened do you?

Was it Napa’s phone that the video was taken on or was it the guy filming? Napa certainly didn’t film himself he was thrashing away like a man pocessed.. on the whatsapp group was it Napa that posted or was it the team mate saying “hey look what Papi got up to last night”

I am assuming he wasnt stupid enough to have had sex with his team mate filming it in the bed next to him?? That is another level of stupidity again. Had assumed he just recorded it and shared it himself based on what I had read.

From what I can work out, in at least one video he was indeed that stupid mate.

Yes agree, that is all part of it for me too. Just forming this as a starting point though as a way to rank players before slotting them into the team. I am finding it hard to make decisions like Tolman and Haas vs Stimson and Capewell in my reserves.

Definitely the second pair out of those two options. Tolman and Haas will both make money but the more I look at them the less I think they're worth it.

That's another simplification though. It could be that three of those options, or even all 4 of them are worthy. I hear you say, but you can't afford it? But you could if you downgraded elsewhere, and on it goes.

Honestly i can make such a better team without cook. Probably will stick with McCollough for round 1

The Sri Lankan wicket keeper is gold

Yeah but both Stimson and Capewell don't play the first bye round, will need to trade out both by then. Tolman is very playable in round 12. Can just trade Haas by then and have a good player that should score well in the bye. Haas is the guy that most concerns me not having him in the team. Could get 40+ round 1 in 40 minutes and need to get him in quickly at a higher price point.

Unconvinced on Capewell as a fantasy player. Because both him and Stimson may be like 40 points per game, and you want to be playing them each week initially, they will also be first traded out when you need to upgrade to genuine guns. This is also more likely to leave some of their value unrealized as they may not have peaked before then. I am inclined to do the 50 point / 30 point combination instead of the 2 x 40 points. Finding leaving Stimson out of the side very hard to do tho.

FFS I need a permanent team name I guess.

If JDB is out at start of the season, any chance Tariq Sims or Frizell get Lock and Leilua lands starting 2nd row?

I suppose it is a chance, and I've no idea what Mary will do, but probably more likely that Korbin Sims comes into the starting side.

Frizzel was NSW lock not to long ago. I expect him to go lock a leilua to jump into the starting second row. I see mary using Graham off the bench to lift the team and Korbin starting.

40 points for capewell is probably keeper level

Good point thanks. Back to the drawing board. Feel like I am getting close.

If I had a CTR scoring 40 points a week, I certainly wouldn't be trading them out before origin

Just reshuffled my team to get napa out. And i found myslef putting cartwright back in my team ffs

Even then sideways trades for origin would be better spent on a position other than centre.

I found myself having a nice balanced team and fairly strong bench, until I started trying to fit Cleary in. I just don't if it'll work. But there's bound to be more cheapies pop up, so who knows.

Yeah I am currently $140k over the great balanced team that I really want. Already have 4 x $230k or less players in the NPRs and a $212k starting as well.

Don't want to drop anyone that I have. Have time I guess for something to change, had Barba in earlier draft versions.

Anyone have Daily Telegraph premium to see the article from Bennet about Johnstons potential move to Cowboys?
