    Res: I Papailli Leota Stimson Elgey Idris Scott Python Suli

    Wallace, Sezer and perhaps Brailey (unknown quantity) who will rise significantly in value.

    One more questions you should ask is how many points you expect Talakai to average?

    In your NRP Papalii, Stimson and Scott are unlikely to start so of you want 25 starters you may have to reconsider some of your gun picks.

    Year experience under his belt, finished the year strong, major feature in Knights forward pack, potential to hit gun statues, quite possibly undervalued.

    Ignore NPR. That's why I said TLT dependent. Ideally I'd like Talakai to be Smat. Most teams are running Idris in their 17. I think he'll flop but so many own. Don't see much difference running Idris Talakai or Scott as 2nd CTR

    On current lineup (unlikely to change greatly before rnd 1) i have 7/10 of my starting hok/frf/2rf playing on Thursday and Friday inc (C)

    In a big shift from last years initial squad i have no raiders at all (though Cotric is a possibility in NPRs).

    Idris has massive potential, and for his price, it's almost silly not to. But nice balls for not going with him.

    Anyone else thinking that running two gun hookers and two gun halves is the way to go? Just feel it is a lot more safe to do this than get in the likes of Lamb, Maloney, Hodgkinson, Moses, Brailey.
    A lot of these guys could have value but they could all do the same as what they are priced - and stay midpricers.

    I feel its easier to pick forwards whom have a role change or minute change e.g Ofahengaue (still think he starts alongside Blair with Sims on bench), Sironen (80 mins possibly and should improve), Wallace (increased role and could be lock 45-50 mins), Mata'utia (80 min second row) than pick and hope with a mid range back?

    No. 2nd gun hooker not jumping out and assuming Brailey gets +40 mins would rather him and Maguire than a McInnes + cash cow 2RF FRF. Sironen is fine. Ofa won't start according to nearly every Bronco fans opinion I've seen and you had Winterstein in 17 who is the worst

    I have two gun hookers

    and then sezer and norman. Not sure if sezer qualifies as gun, but he was the last 2 - 3 years

    It will be Ofa or Easy E, i think it may have swung in ofa's favour due to Easy E's lackadaisical performance in the WCC. Either way, I don't think he gets the mins to be worth worthwhile at his price though.

    Sims will be on the bench to start the year. How long he stays on the bench will be determined by performances.

    Next question on 2rf.

    JDB and McGuire or,

    Surgess and JTurbo.

    I feel like they are very similar and it will come down to a gut call. I'm not sold on McGuire or JTurbo. My main concern is an increase in minutes on the field for McGuire will just lead to more running to the line and throwing a ball out the back. Which is what Jturbo did flat out at the end of the season.

    Surgess and JDB i'm comfortable with either way.
