Hahaha I think they'll have an inkling something is up!

So Copley and Jayden Nikorima are now facing club suspension for "failing to follow direct directions" in not going home once the clubs shut at 1.30am

Was about to say that's pretty much the best team I've seen, then saw your cap comment. If it's not over then that is very well balanced. No to Slater but could be a great pod if he finds that DT form from a few years ago.

TLolo v Papalii
Papalii played huge minutes last year and what his position is in the Raiders pack is very uncertain.
Taumalolo seems to be getting better with age and is guaranteed to play in the middle. Of the Cowboys forwards only him and Tamou seem to have upside, Scott is getting older by the year while Bolton and Hannant have well and truly peaked and are on the slide respectively. Unless you see someone like Spina picking up minutes instead of him Taumalolo is definitely the way to go out of those two.

If I can get anything like the forwards without suffering too much in the backs i'll be happy!

These are my issues with tour team MF. If I was going to be picky I'd say your bench will let you down as all I see is Lichaa, Tapine, Taylor & ?????. Also you need another option for your frf. If G or S go down you don't have one & you don't have a dpp in your 2fr to cover.

As a rule, the chemicals will last 3 days. More natural banned drugs -  mary jane, charlie., chasing the dragon depends on your fat stores but can be as much as 3 months

For reference you are about $178 000 over the cap. That counts the Cheapish player as an NPR.

I would drop one of Hurrell/Lafai (Then you have Gutherson/Copley/Auva'a all potential people to slot in there.)

Then you could drop one of Tapine/Rochow and still have an incredibly strong core. In fact if you dropped Tapine, you could turn Lichaa into Peats/Segeyaro/McCullough.

Otherwise you could just drop Copley + Tapine/Rochow with a little bit of change.

MF that team is waaaay over the cap lad!

Sorry the cheapish player would be NAS I couldn't think of him at the time.

Im hopeful that Merrin will be named in the front row on TLW to get DPP

Hahahaha 178k over the cap?? Oh fiddlesticks..

To be fair, he is running 10 Cheapies outside of his Top 13. Then he will have Tapine + Lichaa. All he needs is 2/10 rookies to be solid and he is flying, and you think Taylor is an acceptable player in the 17. Well then that means he will need 1/9 players to be solid.

In regards to FRF, I don't necessarily think he needs to have cover there, unless one of them go down with one of those 3/4 week injuries making it awkward to hold onto them. Then it shouldn't be a problem. If it is a long term injury, straight up trade. Short term injury then they can take the hit for the week.

Surgess and NAS are both dpp anyway aren't they?

Hmm.. Its hard because I really want to start with Smith, Lichaa, Graham, Surgess, Parker, Merrin, DCE and Rochow.. Seems like its going to be too hard to do that haha

So much this. Is there a reason they had to stop play while the roof was closing? It wasn't raining yet.
