Starting the following:
Mahoney, cht/brown, Holland, Capewell, lomax, Bmoz/charizad
Allows me to also have:
Fifita, TPJ, jurbo, arrow, Murray, arey, turbo
With a bench of
Carty, Stimson, fotuiaka, Egan.

Similar story ran one pre-season about Teddy's running style and how it was the cause of his injuries. Hasn't been injured and killed it ever since. Put down your glasses, take this as gospel. We have a new FAC !

There is a real law firm named McGuireWoods, they probably made a lot of money last year.
Also a FRF possibility

Stuart talking about his forwards. Another year where he seemingly has no clear plan about how to use them. It does seem to suggest Bateman will get an edge and Tapine in the middle, but it also clears up nothing. Sounds like players are training all over the shop.

Seems like a lot are going cold on Matterson. Is there anything driving this or just purely because of the value in the second row?
2018 average of 51.6 when starting second row in 72 minutes. Similar in 2017 with a 50.5 average in 78 minutes. I see him as an under priced keeper which is the kind of player we are all looking for

He's definitely on my watchlist, but if James misses round 1 I won't be taking the punt, no way.
I think James is a middle forward, but they have a fair few middles and Brennan seems to like playing him on an edge. Even if it isn't James, it could be Hipgrave (although we'd know that in round 1).

I think it’s the value in second row mixed with the uncertainty of how he finished last season. You could also throw in a new club for some more doubt too. With no options in the frf and having to pay a premium to get a gun hooker, 2rf seems to be the place to spend less for more return this season.

Currently decided Arrow and Murray are better value, and can't afford Matterson on top of them.
Arrow out and Matterson in is probably the move I would most likely to consider if I thought I needed the cash elsewhere. Assuming Murray starts lock he'll be better value than Matterson.

I've got them, with Keighran (CHT) as a back-up if Brown fails to deliver.
If both Keighran and Brown fail I'll have Drinkwater as a backup.

I read a write up on him at Renegades. If he plays 80 mins he could bump up to mid 50's. I agree with you mate & atm I'm weighing up Matterson v Kikau. Base stats consistency v attacking stats high/low ceiling. I like the certainty that Matterson provides but he's come off a season experiencing severe concussion problems. With the Panthers nice early draw & Kikau now outside Cleary he's going to get a few attacking stats.

The concussion risk for Matterson is too much for me. That shit is no joke, and he struggled towards the end of last season. If he's back to 100%, he's certainly a good pick. I just don't follow the tigers close enough (at all) to know how he's progressing

I read an article on him about a month ago & he was still having problems even after the season finished. He was passing all the tests but 1 knock on his head & he was having problems. I'll counter that by saying Wests would of ensured there was no issue with him or they wouldn't of signed him. Also he could be sweet now & ready to rip in. I peruse the Wests forums for any update on him but there isn't any so I suppose no news is good news.
