Couldn’t agree more for both players, both could be considered if this plays out.

Averaged 43 when starting, decent increase

Friend is $$s I don't have and last season Hodgson was coming back from injury. His upside for me is consistent scoring to start the season at a handy price.

$40,000 odd K difference can you not find that elsewhere? Regardless of injury Hodgsons best fantasy season is 48.

Friend been over 50 in 4 of 5 last seasons

Couldn't agree more. I'm convinced that Friend scores significantly above his price. I just feel Macca will outscore his price by slightly more, but Friend's a decent shout.

I got lost, who averaged 43?

Must be Radley... there’s only two players in the convo lol

Well there was Radley, Hodgson and Friend now that I think about it, but I agree both Radley and Friend are decent shouts. It's just that there's some doubt about the rotations. Robbo tends to go for fairly even splits so I don't know who benefits the most. I do like watching Radley though and as analytical as I pretend to be I often (slightly I think) lean towards exciting players.

I've started trying to put Friend in but my last jump shift got Crichton in and i'm unwilling to send him packing again

Radleys like a young bull at a gate (am I the only one who thinks he looks like a young Slater?), good thing about him is unlike Napa he actually has efficiency in his shots which equates well to the excitement and fantasy aspects of the game. If he’s named at 13 he’s in for me, nothing better than being able to watch a bloke like that and cash in fantasy wise.

Would you say he's smiling the house down?

I’m clearly not as high on the statistics as some of you gentlemen but I would like to pose a question for the really committed....
Has there ever been a Rabbitohs game where the last name Burgess didn’t have an error and the team lost?
Completely random question but it’s one that I would love to have answered if anybody has the statistical know how (and time).

Clearly games before their time don’t count

Haha, I would have to agree with GW though, always looks so serious.

He’s not in real life, I see him at least once a week and outside of footy he’s a lighthearted bloke who smiles a lot. I think it’s just business tbh. Lord knows I smile a lot less at work too.

I'm sure that's true. Do you know him personally or just in the same sphere?

How the fuck do you do that so quick? I am not worthy.

Rothfield on twitter saying all three of Sorenson, Capewell and Nikora will get a go on the edge.

No not personally, I have met him and spoke to him but we’re not buddies or anything. But definitely in the same sphere. He’s a really placid bloke, has a great family too.
