    What’s the consensus with Radley? Is a Radley/Mahoney combination too risky?

    Any thoughts on what Moylan and Wighton might realistically average.

    Looking for a bit of variety at WFB? Mainly interested in Moylan

    Imagine there was no unlimited trades before R1

    How screwed would we be

    yeah i'm not sure mannnnnnn. It's tempting, but honestly i think Lane is a better option. If he gets 80 at least.


    I like Lane but I can't afford to move Gillett into him without downgrading elsewhere.
    I definitely need to find a better WFB than Mansour.

    Thats if you count rd 6 where he finally came good. If he takes a while to warm up again then you'll be second guessing yourself for weeks because you've paid a premium for him. I know this because I started him last year and traded him after rd5 Embarassed
    He did start well the year before though so maybe it's my own confirmation bias warning me off him.

    I don't think there's a consensus, but I like him. Averaged 43.7 at lock last year, priced at 33. Seems like safe value, even if he only averages around 40.
    I have Radley and Mahoney in my 17, but I also have Macca.

    At this stage I have no Broncos, Storm, Raiders or Roosters. Not really that surprised given the depth in the forward packs of these sides it's been hard to choose a sure thing.

    Forgoing Teddy and CNK may be a mistake but happy to run without in the hope that Watson, Dedwards and RTS

    Tapine and Chricton will come into consideration no doubt.

    Tapine and Munster are on the "I wish I could get them in" list.

    I have both of them in supercoach though, and Radley

    You did say look at his first 6 rounds. I'm just not sure he gets much cheaper than $821K this year, last year he was $914K to start the year so passed but I see locking him in now as saving a trade. Plays round 12 so whatever he gets that round is obviously a bonus.

    Yeah that’s it. He will play edge when Pangai comes in.

    Who is Chris Garry and why do i care about his opinion?

    Not trying to be rude, just gauging the quality of his comments.

    Tempting. I think there's enough value around to wait and see on him coming back from such a serious injury though.

    Even if Gillett does not start the season at full fitness, he'll almost certainly start at better than his breakeven.

    So if you want him best to get on him early, even if it takes him a while to get up to speed.

    Thoughts on Moylan this year.

    Thinking of running Edwards, Moylan and CNK?

    Has basically been the #1 Broncos journo for a number of years. His info on them is generally correct (doesn't tend to deal in rumours like the Pete Badel's/etc)

    Why is this so funny? I struggle to see how he scores more the 45-47 being on an edge. You just have to look at his stats.
    What I find funny is you saying that you will pass on Mahoney and that he's not value. Now that's funny.

    I’ll bet you whatever you want that James gets more total points than Arrow this year. Again. To say that James will average no more than mid 40’s is simply lol! Sorry if that offends you. Every year they say James is playing on the edge and he invariably ends up playing middle AND edge. People don’t watch games, that’s the problem. They listen to shit on the media. He averaged 52.5 last year and, guess what? He started in the 2nd row. He’ll outscore the low minute Arrow for sure.

    Mahoney is too expensive and will put out what he’s priced at imo. People are getting him for a backup hooker, but he reminds me of my Pritchard pick last year, which was admittedly shitful. He’ll have big boppers running at him all day and he misses tackles like a champ. There is far better value elsewhere and without him I get a front three of Cook, Tapau and Fifita, plus an extremely strong second row, whoever I want in the halves with Brown, the same centres and FBs as everyone else. No biggie. I’m pretty sure they’ll make up for no Mahoney. If I’m wrong I’ll bring Mahoney in later on. Good luck for the year. I’ll remind you of James V Arrow later on in the year Basketball
