Is it because you are looking to have them both playing second fiddle in starting 13,
Ie it’s actually a pairing decisions for HLF2/CTR2?
Nikora/Morgan
Or
Capewell/Brown
Something like that?
Can’t see how else this is an “in isolation” decision. Don’t like either for 14-17 if that’s the thinking
Prefer pairing B from above fwiw
Trying to ignore how it effects the rest of the team which I know isn't looking at the whole picture.
More of the fact that they're both around the same price so who do we think will perform better/make more money.

Am I the only one who is interested in Korosau over Cleary?
I don't like to cherry pick statistics, but if you take out a couple of shockers where he missed a lot of tackles uncharacteristically, he could easily be 5 points or more undervalued.
I've never been a fan of Koroisau fantasy wise. He just doesn't have the ceiling to match his inconsistency. Plenty of shocking low scores and the highs aren't high enough

Mate, I can't draw the line there or there'd be no one in the league

Is this as your gun half / hooker? Hmm.. Wouldn't it be better off just picking someone consistent?

Think Capewell will be better bang for buck and we will get more out of him for the time owned

Glad you set this up again mate, and love how you go against the grain with it. Everyone else who does this tends to be able to finish at least Top 8 in their own League.
Appreciate your perseverance in trying to emulate that.

I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast.
In all seriousness, I'd put my $$$ on MS winning this league. Think he's due for a strong year.

Glad you keep forgetting to eat breakfast then! I missed most of the poster Leagues this year, which I now regret. All up I somehow managed to be in 50 odd Leagues last year, only 15 this year thus far. Anyone who needs a spot filled let me know!

High score of 82 (albeit with a try) and a tryless 76, a tryless 64 in in 66 minutes- I think his ceiling is not too bad as long as he gets the 80 mins
He had three scores below 40 (not including his injury game),
-one he made 11 missed tackles (more than double his second worst MT count) and found -30 points in negatives with a shocker (though Ruan Sims gave him Dally M points
)-in another he was sinbinned and played less minutes
-no excuses for the 23 in round 8 against the knights
I don't know if it is just wishful thinking for me wanting a POD or a gut feel pick, but I can't shake that he was just a little unlucky with his floors last year. He averaged 56 and made 120k in his first 6 rounds before the wheels fell off.

This would be my gun half, correct. But you are probably right. With Cleary only 50k more he seems the safer pick. But you are still cherry picking statistics for him also. He had three scores of 30 and an 18 in the 5 games he came back from injury. Do we discount this as merely blowing off the cobwebs returning from injury and look more toward the 63 he averaged in the 7 games after this?

I haven’t either on Bench, have Morgan in the 1/2s with Munster
Capewell could be downgrade for me in the Centre from Holland if I needed the money to pair with Nikora.

Well to be fair, he shouldn't have come back from such a severe injury that quickly. The argument could be made that it's cherry picking, but those poor scores were all post-injury and he didn't have any poor scores post origin. If you look back at his 2017 and 2016 averages you can see he's a consistent scorer. All things being equal, who would you place money on to average more consistently?
In saying that. If you can handle 2 or 3 dud scores a season to pick a POD who can also hit big then go for it. It just depends on how much you value consistency. Is consistency worth $50k to you

Depends if Fainu is named. As a tackle bot hooker, through the season his scoring should be more consistent than that of a half, if Fainu isn't there.

Oh definitely wouldn't be running with him if Fainu is in the 17. Koro needs the full 80 minutes or he will never produce the goods. I'd been sold all preseason but one week out I'm getting cold feet.
Suddenly I'm considering running with double gun halves in Cleary and Koro with Morgan moving to the bench as backup. Need to look into this.
