    Wade Graham is out of my side after not passing the ball inside to Barba who scores under the post and cost me my bet of an indigenous win.

    Based on that game, I've brought in Wade Graham, Cam Smith, and Tyrone Roberts

    I wonder how much I should be reading into these Charity Shield/All Stars performances. Hearing Packer's doing well is making me re-consider him but big difference between that level of competition and say running at Fifita/Gallen.
    Oh I guess it's just a roll of the dice at the end of the day. I dump LAM from my team he'll probably get those good minutes and scores, I keep him he'll probably get lost in the shuffle and be a dud.

    My thoughts on fantasy relevant players from all stars
    Inglis- Looked dangerous when he had the ball but did his usual drifting in and out of games.
    Barba- Very good in attack creating space with both running and passing. Took a whole heap of hit ups and looked to get involved off the ball
    Fifita- Work rate was incredible. Followed the play the ball side to side and was running hard.
    Thaiday- Slimmed down a lot and had a high work rate. Could be a cheeky POD
    W.Graham- Dangerous everytime he touched the ball. Didn't make many tackles but as Maloney's body guard he will see plenty of traffic.
    J.Graham- Looked in mid season form. Took plenty of hit ups and tackled everything that moved.
    C.Smith- Somehow looked better than seasons past. Full off-season has definitely benefitted him. Organised the play, kicked well and made a great tackle shutting the gate on Tyrone Roberts.
    Taupau- Probably best on field first 20 minutes. Breaking tackles and had a huge work rate. Gassed at the back end so will still just be an impact player. Looked to spend a lot of time on the edge.
    Konrad- Busted 4 tackles to score a try. Ran through contact with every hit up
    Merrin- Looked very mobile. Arm free every time he went to the line and refused to be taken down. Minutes his only worry

    I shall remind you all that a few years ago, Ben Jones carved up the All-Star Match.

    Rory O'Brien was a big performer in the Charity Shield last year.

    Jack De Belin had a stellar Charity shield about 2-3 years before he became a worthwhile fantasy player

    After the All-Stars game I have decided to bring in Smith.. He just doesn't stop and brought in J. Graham for J. Bromwich. Comfortable running with Graham as he was in everything and hoping to see him play big minutes, and as long as he is named K. Hurrell has pushed his way into my squad.

    That is what I was running with. Ended up Segeyaro to Smith for now. (Which I had the money to do so anyway.) My NPR situation is kind of a mess. I couldn't find any 2RF under $200k that I could be bothered with.

    I planned on having the (C) on Fifita.

    Just finished the first half of the trial and Maumalo was exceptional when returning the ball. I know he's played a few first grade games now but never really watched him. Great ball runner. If he could get the Talanoa out of his game he'd be awesome.

    Johnny B Goode wrote:I really think if they want to play Lolo in the centres then they should leave out Kata instead of Hurrell. Kata can be a ball hog at times and I just think Hurrell has more to offer at his best.

    I don't want to be rude but are you off your head? Kata has the union pedigree and spots gaps that a lot of players don't see. He's far and away a better centre than Hurrell and so is Lolohea for similar reasons

    I swear people are making a case for Hurrell playing because it suits their fantasy teams and ignoring the fact how much he's regressed as a player relative to better options at the Warriors

    Maybe people overlook Kata compared to Hurell purely because he has a man bun. Not sure about others but at least it makes it easier to keep track of him during a game Laughing

    Pretty happy with the games of the three Bunnies in the game last night, I originally had Turgess in my squad but have since replaced him,might have to reconsider that as he looks pretty lean and keen and with his twin out round one he will be needed to do a bit more, also impressed with a few baby bunnies in Zane Musgrove, Jack Gosiewski and Nathan Brown all had decent games in the CS match, I am not sure why Angus Crichton didnt play but will be keen to see him go around soon and is one to put in your little black books Wink
