or

Cook @ $969,000

By Downgrading Munster to Croft and Holland/Hampton to Bird can get Cook in. Can keep Holland/Hampton and get Crichton or anyone under Smith

I think both Bird and Hampton are traps. Hampton's centre run was a small sample with quite a few tries. Bird was so so shit last year and it wrecked me. I think it is the new normal. Crichton could be worth a look though instead of Taupau

Macca
Tolman Napa
Arrow Kikau Murray
Cleary Morgo

Watson Edwards Sauce

Stimson Egan Keighran Brown/Burr/etc

I think I've had better iterations I'll go back to

I like Holland at same price mate and his scores at CTR sre very. very promising  especially if Martin doesn't start and he gets GK on top.

Hampton slated for possible No.1 shirt

Mulvy wrote:

If Hampton is FB it'll be hard for me not to pick him at centre. I like cheering Cowboys, he so much better and quicker than I realised (I never really rated what he did when spelling Granville). Who know, he could have a break out year like Morgo in 2014.

Buramada wrote:

Could be right, but if they want him a FB why are they trying to sign Gigot from superleague and everyone else as well. I suppose TLT will tell.

Sivo -- could be a bolter on the wing to start the year -- would be a secret anymore if he was in any case

With Fergo as well, the curse of the little wingers would be over

(C)mith was going to be my Captain. But I do reckon they cut (B)mith a deal to say he would get some hooker time. The days of him being such a fecking hog are over.

So well anyway, I got in Mahoney and gone lite in hooker. But my big call is that Mahoney will score on par with McCullough for heaps less. I am predicting somewhere in the 43-48 range (conservatively). With all that DOP talk, didn't we decide it was all about value. Mahoney allows quite a balanced team

Mahoney
Taupau Tolman
Radley, Murray, TPJ,
Croft, Morgan
Capewell, Holland
Drinkwater, Tedesco, Edwards

Sorensen, Brown, Egan, Keighren

Sivo, Salmon, Lomax, Haas

Point of note

- Radley will start at lock right. Does that not make him well undervalued
- Tedesco and Taupau rotating captain until I can get something better
- My backline is to die for because I have Mahoney
- Get on Sivo!! I expect him to start wing for the Eels at base price and be Mansour like in his output.

Just be aware that last season Tapau started really slow on limited minutes in the first few rounds, in the heat. Was so painful watching him on the bench getting 36 minutes, when his team was killing the Eels.

Thanks for the Sivo tip!

If I went Cook and I wouldn't go Macca and I've bigged him too much now to back out

Can't believe I've overlooked Angus so much, error potentially
