    If Titans direct a lot of attack through him like Raiders do with Wighton, you might see the halves just giving a lot of early ball and Hayne getting most of the TA's/LBA's etc. for the last pass.

    Sure that could take the odd few attacking stats off him but with added bulk km and gk duties with no roberts big potenial there

    Won't Hayne likely take a fair chunk of the KM's as well? Not saying he is a bad choice at all btw, I'm going to pick him up, just setting expectations a tad lower than you Razz.

    interesting year. i'm all about the value and this year seems to have it in abundance! some place holders here. and guys like farah are interchangeable for whichever hooker (farah, seggy, mcinness etc) looks likely to get 80 bar smith. also the prop situation will have to be sorted pending TLT - will have the cheapest possible 2nd prop that i think will average at least ~30 and downgrade elsewhere to make up the money for him.

    thoughts?

    haha fair enough mate. After looking at Taylor closely, with no Roberts I can see him getting very close to his 2016 avg from base stats alone

    The 2R guns are good options - are you worried about Cordner's origin prospects?

    Any love for Kahu if he starts in the centres? Corey Parker kicked on average 2 goals per game, so he should get those. Should score better in the centres than the wing although his limited stats don't back that up. Concerns are Broncos tough opening draw and one game where he missed eight tackles. Probably better options around. Thoughts?

    Interesting team, and very different to most posted. The only pick I really don't like is Ferguson. Better WFBs at that price, or move Hayne there, downgrade Ferguson to a $138k and upgrade your second prop or Farah to Smith.

    I've been thinking about Kahu. From memory in 2015 he averaged pretty much the same in the centres as wing or fullback, but goal kicking should be worth a few more points. Injuries are a problem though, and I want at least one of my centres to have the potential to boom into a tacklebusting gun like BJ did last year, which I don't think Kahu will.

    Of the ones that might, Idris and Hurrell are the obvious ones. Who else at around 300k and below? Dylan Walker? Aaron Gray if he plays centre?

    Not so much a TB CTR but Chambers heavily under-priced for what he has previously produced, Milne 80 min starting CTR avg is in the 40's but only a small sample size

    Yeah would prefer Hurrell, just finding it hard to fit him in. Clutching at straws trying to find someone else
