Don't you think opposition's video sessions might focus more on trying to limit his impact or do you reckon he's developed a new side to his game to prevent that so far under Bennett

In the preliminary final v Roosters last year he was very quiet

Also I kind of feel like I'm being a bit reactionary to the Burns side of the trade

Oppositions might adapt, but big tired forwards are big tired forwards, and Cook can run round them no matter how many videos they've watched. He did run out of steam last year towards the end of the season. He might be managed differently over Origin this year, but don't see him holding back just yet.

Also what’s the code for the Fanatics Overall Group?

Nice team Krump

Me Tedesco + McCullough + Friend + Capewell
You CNK + Cook + Lane + Napa

How many minutes are we expecting from Radley? Last year starting at lock he averaged 43. Is there anything set to change that? I think hedging my bets on Gillett would be more reliable

I feel like if you've played FPL. the Cook discussion is exactly the same as the Salah discussion for this year - highest priced player by a fair bit coming off an insane season where not owning him (or even captaining at times) can kill your rank

Now going to be deathriding every player tonight because I have no Storm or Broncos players

Still need a couple more for mine as well. 6J6NRERT

I totally hear ya!

(Actually, I would be quite willing to do this in trade for mine.)

Given these days origin players only miss 1 more game than anyone else, I don't think there is a strong argument for trading people in and out over origin.

Unless you think they are going to get rested from a lot of club games on top of the origin byes. Last year Cook missed 1 extra game  but still scored well other times

Yep, Cook missed two games more than a non-Origin player over a six week period. I wouldn't trade out eg Ted over Origin, but an 80-minute hooker I would. Cook to eg Taumalolo pre origin and buy him baxk courtesy of some 2nd bye cows could be worth 100+ points. I exactly this last year as part of bye planning and it worked out well.

That is a scarily solid Cook team...

Is Tolman the clear cut best FRF pick under $580k?

Cook + $500k player

Macca + Friend

I am expecting 45-50 minutes and up to 40-45 points a week.

If I could be confident on 45 a week I'd grab him. Less points than Friend who I currently have, but saves $200k, and should make more money

Two spots left for the ‘League of Ordinary Lads’

I caught all the big Salah scores as Cap from GW16 and going another C for his blanks but he's been stinking up the place last 7 weeks only 1 goal 1 assist

I think so. Twal the only other real contender IMO

Maybe Glasby if you want a POD punt, but his scores are a bit inconsistent for mine

The difference is money making is much slower in FPL. They don't really have the concept of cash cows funding future upgrades.

If they used the same pricing system as NRLF you'd stack your team with cheap defenders to make cash to bring in good forwards after a couple of lean weeks.

What's story with Blayke Brailey? Big wraps but going to eke minutes off his brother?
