I perceive Crichton and perhaps Murray to be a better captain option then Arrow and Taupau. Why I am wrong?

Murray is still unproven, likely a breakout year for him, but not a captain option yet

The warriors are in all sorts without SJ this year.

They haven’t been a beacon for success with SJ in their team. Now they can disappoint their fans and save themselves a million $$$ a year.

Weiland wrote:The thing with SJ with me is I am a little concerned he will get more injury prone as he ages. He missed a few games here and there last year and that is the kind if thing that annoys the hell out of me with a keeper.

I posted it earlier but he’s very consistent in his six games missed per year except I think 2015 where he played the whole year.

After cs9 retires Murray will be the new God. Might start calling him Jesus

Why are people thinking about captaining Murray? I have him because I expect 48-52 from him with his likely minutes.

Who are most people pairing Fifita with? Who's better, Ofa v Tolman (does the other get a bench spot?)

Is Matterson worth going cheaper at WFB and having 2 sub-300s on the bench?

Murray has to prove himself before I consider him a captaincy option. Want to see his role before I risk it.

Also not game to captain Arrow at the moment either. Everyone seems to be working on the assumption 'he looks fit = 60 points" but although I am convinced enough to own him, he has to earn the (C)
(he is no Isaako)

Cash in the bank

I think it pays to have a little something left over. If we think back to Croft et al., some people hung on for a couple of games. If you finally decided to cut your losses, you have to hope a decent cow pops up otherwise you're downgrading elsewhere meaning potential opportunity cost and a double trade. I quite often see "I'm only $x short of x player to y player" followed by "got z shitty player instead"

I reckon $50-100k is easy to do and useful. Each to their own

Its official our community team is in the celeb teams lads. So if you need a filler for your league throw it in. If you want to get involved in the community team follow the link.

Are you going to pop the community team into one of our leagues?

Also with Murray he may be in for a blues jersey this year if he proves himself, already on Freddy’s radar

With all that Munster talk from earlier on in the thread I'm considering putting him into my team instead of Cleary. It will give me an extra 90k to strengthen my 14-17.
It also gives me the flexibility to move him down to the WFB if one of the cheapies (dbrown, keighran) score well enough in the halves

We have on spot for league 51 if @Showbags doesn't show up we could. Definitely adding it to the overall.

Oops double post... now it will take less time to get to page 51

It would be a good filler team for those empty spots in the leagues. Hopefully everyone who signed up shows up though.

We definitely need a commonly mispelt players names 17:

I've seen the following players names spelt as follows in the last week:

McCullough - McCulloch
Crichton - Chrighton
Tevaga - Tevanga
Fifita - Fafita
Taupau - Tapau
Fitzgibbon - Fitzgibbons
Gallen - Whinging Cunt
McGuire - MacGuire
Surgess - Sam Burgess

Go hard boys haha.

I've noticed my team has become much less flexible in terms of DPPs recently, only 3 in my 21 - Nikora (starting CTR), Host (bench), Ravalawa (emergency)

Any talk of the auto fill starting team this year?

When looking at people's starting halves, I have seen all sorts of crazy spellings of 'Morgan'
