I need a 130k NPR in the 2RF. Anybody got a rookie they have big wraps on?

actually, couldn't pass up Leuluai for his DPP. Hopefully my lottery pick is a good one

Yeah I was thinking him or Mataora? Noone else really wets the whistle, and I'm not keen on punting on Pauli

I like Turner in that comparison, only worry is Carter! also check your inbox mate RE VSDT

B. Henry is starting over Welch who is named at #17 with Kaufusi and NAS outside the 17.

JWH could return in rounds 4/5 How much cash can Evans make by then?

Good question. Evans or Grant is a bit of a toss up huh

Evans has leapfrogged Moa in that rotation anyway. Even on the bench he should be getting 35-45 rather than 20-30 minutes and be decent value.

Grant has better long term job security surely? Should make cash but maybe not as quick as Evans will i wouldn't of thought

I just know that the one I don't pick will make a mint and I will pick the dud. And I can't have both lol sigh

Actually I could have both, that's a blatant lie lol but I don't want both

always the same mate haha! Will be the same for me with which 2 from rochow/whitehead/turner

Im seeing reports that the NRL want to put Pearce on the sideline for 12 weeks, hoping they dig their heels in about it, I feel like that's a long enough period to be able to dump Lichaa so I can move JNiko to Hooker, so I can move Feeney to HLF, so I can move Gutherson to WFB, so I can move Green to CTR, so i can afford a 2nd gun 2RF to make me feel a bit more secure about all the mid-rangers I have kicking around in that position.

I'm also tossing up between Grant and Evans. I've got Evans in now, but could change it. Both could ave around the 40 mark.

1 bench spot to fill but only $122,000 left and i refuse atm to alter my side haha where can I get the extra $8,000?  

I think bringing in Slater for Gordon/Mansour. I only need Slater named for me to have confidence in the selection. Though I still like Mansour and Gordon as options.

Gee mate sounds like you'll have a whole lotta dpp going for ya! Dpp can be a good thing for your team in the early days when you're relying on more players with lesser job security, relative to later in the year when you have more guns (still important then too so you can cover positions and not cop auto-e).

I also get worried about mid-rangers. But there really a handful you should consider, there's a good 5 or so in the second row.
