There was a post by Supercoach that around 2000 people picked the wrong Bateman

0.30% in Fantasy it seems like.

arrow-> Bateman

Garrick -> Lawrie

thinking i wanna hop on bateman now as he wont be any cheaper and he is a keeper in the centres for the season
lawrie well we know why and with arrow i know he is a gun, rate him high as a player but 80 min lock who has a rep as an unbelievable offloader and we saw he can break a tackle compared to 55 min lock. also if arrow does step up with more points as the season goes on im looking to bring him back in when upgrading one of my maxed mid rangers. Trades not being an issue

anyone have any thoughts?

One trade locked in. I guess like most will be pondering Holland for Bateman as my other trade. Then there's that Garrick bloke too. Could dump Garrick for host/Mikaele and miss Bateman this week. One to ponder for myself.

If anyone is on the Lane train it’s me, but those trades look great.

It’s a pity he didn’t get a ta for Jennings try. All the defenders were watching lane.i can see that being a go to play for the eels, lane as a decoy and out the back to Jennings.

Wow. Dead set, we need to cut our losses with him.

It seems every year he gets talked up as a future star nothing really comes of it eventually. Mind you Brooks is coming into his own

Cherrington, Luani and Politoni were all talked up as being threats to Robbie Farah. Bloke outlasted them all, and another half dozen “genuine first grade” Hookers we’ve signed as well in that time.

Liddell gets added to the wonder kids list that never made it.

I brought Radley and Macca onto my bench versus having Fifita........... Fml

Bright side, I captained Friend

Ahh yes Cherrington was the one I was trying to remember! You never know he may impress all of us by the end of the year

Did not realise he didn't In still happy with his 47 though. Might be on the chopping block if Bateman is the 80min man... About 40x better me, hay yo

Whose the halves partner this round boys Keighran or Brown?

It was Macca all preseason until a day or two before and most here were leaning Friend over Macca... Not getting that lucky with my Captain picks from here haha

I think Keighran is going to flourish in first grade. Looks so confident.
6 goals and 200m kicking doesn't go astray either.

Keighran > Brown. Safer pick for sure.

Is Sele a buy? How long until Kikau back?

If you'd asked at halftime last week I'd have said Brown but Keighran took a lot more control as his confidence grew.

He did get it for the try where he offloaded. He means the try where he ran a great decoy line.

I might give Brown a crack and hope the Dogs are woeful again.

Keighran 17 tackles 0 missed Brown 27 tackles 1 missed. Very nice both

Oops my bad he did get a ta. Reckon he’ll be see more ball on a dry track.
