Really makes me want to target the sub 500k bracket for my WFBs (Mansour, Moylan, Gutho, Wighton, CNK, BMoz) and then there's the possible cheapies.

Gives me the money to get the guys I want everywhere else.

At the moment I’m with Moylan Gutho and RTS

Would have liked to have seen the Raiders again more to get a look at wighton at 5/8

Not bad that mate. I'm so far looking at Mansour, CNK, BMoz. At the very least they hold their price.
If I get lucky they can jump 100k and be easier upgrade to guns.

Would love CNK to have C dual position too, match him with Capewell, sort a few headaches.

Or Gutho, he is dual in SuperCoach

No holland at centre mate? Atm I have Holland/Nikora at CTR. Think I have talked myself into going sub 500k in the backs

I’m with you boys. Have moved right away from spending big in the backs. Teddy quiet pre-season, Turbo injured, Ponga out of position is helping the cause.

Too many points I want to buy in the forwards and at hooker!

No Holland, Nikora bench at the moment

He definitely looked sharp as and keen.

Yes boy!. Now the key is finding the right balance of points and money making ability.
That will be tough.

I think CNK, Kahu, Moylan/Gutho could be interesting if you wanted to go cheap FBs

Trials feel a bit like a first date. Guys pull out all the stops to impress the boss. But when it comes down to the hard grind of the season they tend to let it slip a bit.

I have a few questions regarding my team, thoughts?

Mahoney
A Fifita, LAM
IPap, Murray, Arrow
Cleary, Widdop
Holland, Nikora
RTS, CNK, Lomax

Hampton, Stimson, Paulo, Keighran/CHT

DBrown, Allan, Ravalawa, Xerri

$120K ITB

Notes: Once Widdop gets dual, I'll likely play DBrown over Lomax and put Widdop in my WFB.

My questions are:

- Is Hampton a good enough backup hooker to Mahoney? He looked pretty good last year at centre and fullback and seems to have a centre spot locked down, and if not that then it'd be fullback.

- Is LAM worth it as a 2nd prop? I really rate him at the Warriors, he seems like he'll get more minutes there and he's a PPM machine. Other options if I don't go with him are Joe O, TPJ, Vaughan etc.

- Is Junior Paulo a bad idea for a depth prop and bench player? He runs hard and from what I've heard, Parra are running a 3 forward bench which really helps him (and considering Mahoney didn't go off when Smith came on, it shouldn't affect him).

Cheers lads

It involves some high ranking officials and gambling. The extent of the fall out is yet to be seen but we are talking possible jail time. All pretty confidential at the moment but not a good look for the game we all love

It's usually the guys at the top that are the most corrupt.

true but RTS is beyond trying to impress the boss at this point... i think you are 100% correct tho when it comes to cheapies but.

RTS was Dally-M player of the season last year. Is there really much upside there?

SJ not being in the team you would assume the plan is for RTS to be even more involved in the attack.... so i think there is yes.

He could win it again with a 50pt fantasy average.

That’s pretty much me right there. Will have Morris though

L9 codes have been sent!

They should all average north of 30+ points.
I think due to price CNK and Kahu will be in there.

Who would you take out of Moylan/Guthrie/Wighton*.

*I do like a half who can defend

I love league code day!!
