Until I purchased him at the end of last season as a POD and he shat the bed

Gutherson is very cheap as a starting FB.

Tempted, but leave me very thin back there.

Eels are likely to be complete dog$hit this year too.

I read he was linked to the raiders from 2020 on a 3 year deal?

They’ve already pulled out from chasing him.

Ive picked Fitz up in the draft for this reason

Picked it like a dirty nose

Anyone know of a nrl draft cheat sheet like they have for NFL??

Wanted to get my head out of work so I tried to come up with a team with a gun hooker and Fifi and Kapow;

Macca
Fifita Taupau
Stimson Arrow Murray
Clifford Brown
Holland Capewell
Edwards CNK Drinkwater

Mahoney Radley Burr Egan

cow cow cow cow.

If Clifford doesn't start, perhaps I'll swap Edwards for Mansour and Clifford for Morgan. Looks stronger than I thought was possible, although a lot of unknowns on the bench.

I'm thinking I'll run with this up top

Macca
Fifita Taupau
Arrow Matterson Murray

Really keen on Vaughan as well.

Segeyaro has signed a one year deal with the sharks

As a backup? Or is he an option?

Both Brayleys are still there so I’m guessing the younger one might have another year in the reserves.

He will still come off the bench.

Aren't they still over from signing Johnson? My god the NRL is a joke.

Shame, Segeyaro is such a strong player I was hoping he would get a crack with the Knights. At least he has a steady paycheck for another year.

@Krump IIRC they aren't technically over the cap yet. They are waiting for a punishment to be handed down from the NRL in regards to that. Which people believe will push them over the cap, which you could think Segeyaro at this point isn't making that much anymore. While Johnson's hefty price tag could most likely clear the debts. That or it is a vanity signing to lose the Last in, First out headlines surrounding Johnson and they will drop Segeyaro when/if the punishment happens and some other fringe talent.

Turn Clifford into Keighran and upgrade Macca to Smith for a safe C option ?

This sort of explains it.

It says they still haven't hit the cap and other than Fifita, Moylan, Dugan, and Johnson. I doubt many other guys are on big contracts.

Woods, Graham, Townsend, Buyuka and Prior wouldn't be on peanuts i reckon

If he is named to start then Ferrero Roache will be in my team.

Really undecided on wether to go Gun/Cow or Cow/Cow in the halves.

Think I'm leaning towards Gun/Cow with Pearce for a POD
