    without delving too deep in team selection this early there are a few guys who i think i will be building around

    Seggy
    Cooper 100% if DPP
    J. Graham
    DCE
    Lafai
    Mansour
    Tedesco

    some of the standard guns to be added

    not worth mentioning Taylor and Hastings as they are a given

    I know there has been a reduction in the number of interchanges but I just dont see Grahams minutes changing. What was he averaging last year in mins? Surely it is around 60 mins per game.

    not so much for increased minutes, didn't he get banged up a fair bit last year? i thought his avg was slightly down because of that

    May not see much of a rise but on the flipside he is also not very likely to see a reduction in minutes in some games. Interchanges will need to be more spot on so less likely that coaches will use intetchanges at generally set times and on feeling. Having someone like Graham who you can leave for most of the game while dealing with the fitness and impact levels of your power forwards will huge for a coach.

    Other than Hastings/Taylor

    Sam Burgess, DCE and Tapine are the closest thing to being locked in to my team for now.

    Gutherson and Auvu'a just waiting pricing confirmation but they'll likely be in everyone's teams too.

    I haven't even started considering hookers yet. But pre-research Seggy is early favourite.

    I was thinking 100/0 split in my favor. But I guess if you won the comp you done some work so a 95/5 split would be okay.
