    I think it does, if sharks are prepared to get seggy in they will intend to play him, it would prob be better for brailey in the long term if he played a season in nsw cup. The step up from 20's to nrl is huge for a forward.

    Also Cotric and Suli have been in and out. Cotric a good pick?

    At least while Croker is out yeah Cotric is good.

    Anthony tupou signed for knights?
    Ben barbs was meant to be on 800k for this season with broncos 1/2 payments stopping end of 2016.
    Perhaps they were able to keep the transfer out of cap and that was the sticking point

    Money wise they have the development money to fall back on.

    Because I love you.

    HOK: Most common pairing here.

    FRF: I am not a fan of Wallace when you could have someone like JWH. However I and others have touched on that a lot recently.

    2RF: Who is he who must not be named. Sironen or Aubbuson? Either way solid 2RF.

    HLF: Taylor could definitely go massive to start the year with Roberts playing from HOK. He should do a large amount of kicking.

    CTR: I personally would start Talakai, but 4 cheapies is a common theme around here.

    WFB: Dugan has been talked up for several pages. Aside from that he could be a decent pick as long as you are confident in him.

    Overall: I have no faith in Wallace. That is the only issue in this team.
    .

    Love

    Good Lad!

    People need to be a little more patient as the pages are flying through and a lot are tweaking teams too so glazing over things too.
    Happy to help if you want to message me, I can't promise I have all the stats to back me up like some here as on my phone.
    Up to you, offer is there

    Honestly the best way to get advice, is to ask and when it isn't touched on ask a second time and everyone feels bad so they hop all over it.

    F. Winterstien vs S. Talakai

    Both would be starters.

    Ennis said last night that the Sharks want Brailey to play 80 and he will do it sometime this year.

    Yep, heard that. Now you would assume Ennis knew Seggers was defs coming by last night, but maybe not?

    Cotric is a large human so probably good for a tackle break, raiders fans have big wraps on him too.
    And he is starting as opposed to suli, so it's the whole you don't make money not playing thing

    Saw some meerkats in ALDI catalogue today and instantly thought of you.

    They are taking over the world

    Got Tupou confused with leaving the Sharks.

    As far as I know the NRL wasn't budging on the transfer fee being included in the salary cap ala Sam Tomkins.

    The actual cash to pay for it isn't a problem as the NRL grant is more then the cap

    Apparently Seggy has been training with the Sharks for a while already so could be ready to go.
    Anyone know how much he will cost?
    Would be nice if he was available to select this week.

    Gallen Surgess KBrom Smat, Siro Stone
    Norman LambElgey Hingano
    Trbo Idris Suli Kelly
    Guth Hayne RTS Cotric Python

    Idea is if Lamb bombs can move Guth up there, Trbo to WFB and SMat to CTR. I know the perception is Hingano is a trap, but I just see him having more games in the future.

    Just tossing up between Gallen + Surgess + Lamb vs McGuire + Buhrer + Johnson.....option 1 seems better but I want to get SJ in somehow

    HOK: Most common pairing.

    FRF: Solid picks, no issues. Got Stone and Yates so hedging your bets is a good call.

    2RF: Solid picks across the board.

    HLF: The starting HLFs are my HLFs so they better go good. Higano could get more games, but could not. Considering the other options are guys of the bench it is a risk either way.

    CTR: Stronger than most with Trbojevic.

    WFB: I dislike Gutho, but hey he could be nice and he gives you some flexability which is more why you seem to be picking him.

    Also I like option 1 a lot more.
