Sorry mate. Wasn’t joking, I just don’t look at any of the SuperCoach stuff. Thanks for sharing, and now making me nervous.

I only saw the rumour on twitter then posted the links. I look at the SC articles on the DT every day even though I don't play the game. It comes in handy for me personally for any extra info.

Like someone else said, I knew he had minor surgery in the off season. Then watching him in trials thought no more about it. I'm not worried in the slightest based off some guy's tweet.

Looked as good as ever in the trials so it’s twitter being twitter?

I think so, just make sure you have 5 spare centres in your team to start the year.....ok?

I have a glass of the stuff atm

Holland had both ankles cleaned out in the off season. He is in my side.
Montoya is also interesting starting at centre for 287k. Should be dual position? Others given it why not Montoya?

So back to talking not talking about fake news again.

Is Burr worth a punt on the bench to start round 1 over a Keighran/Brown or is this classic Warriors where they start a cheapie for 15mins round 1 and then they disappear.
Kinda hoping he scores well for a couple weeks then a few more weeks on the bench gives you a nice little earner to start the year..Not alot of options at base price other than Host/Sele etc
He did look good in the trials I have to admit. Tackled everything

As someone mentioned earlier, Keighran at home is probably the calculated gamble over brown, but Burr could be worth a shot in the 17 perhaps.. Thoughts?

Sorry mate. The gist is put a link if you have hear a rumour. I personally would trust you without a link but you need to at least name the source of said rumour. 
I’m not having a go at any particular person and certainly not you but in the past people have posted rubbish injury rumours thinking it was funny. That may seem like a joke 2 hours before lockout but if the site freezes after you make a change based on it and the website dies it’s not funny.

Looking closer at Maccas scores last year...

The following scores from 80 mins:
36, 41, 42, 45, 29

Then there's 33 from 71 mins.

I like the idea of him but that scares me. Especially if relying on his as captain.


Looking closer at Lane...

9 tries last year from 7 games. In those games he averaged 60 from about the same minutes.
My concern is the 36 he averaged in his other games (from 52 mins).

Priced at 40, he needs to be playing big minutes if he's not scoring tries.

The below isn’t aimed at Milf!
Fantasy has a website known to shit the bed so a joke post two hours before lockout may not end up being a joke. Don’t make in appropriate jokes folks.

Slated for 80 potentially so need for tries offset by extra game time?

Will papalli push Blair back into the middle at the expense of Burr? (i have Burr and hope he will make enough cash even if coming off the bench)

I just keep coming back to Burr not being a very good footballer. If you have him this is the week to play him though.

No worries mate. I definitely don't want to be that kind of person and never have been. I was just curious if there was any truth to the rumour basically.

has there been a Sivo v Ravalawa conversation that I've somehow managed to miss?

Ravalawa has the DPP if you need any more centres, but Sivo looks pretty impressive on the surface.

Is one better than the other?

Possibly, but if he can score a 40 this week then some 30's off the bench then maybe he might make something
Hopefully not another Nicholls, but vs Host at least he plays in the middle so can make some tackles and a few hitups.
