    HOK- Smith (Brailey)
    FRF- Fifi, JBrom, Wallace, Kaufusi
    2RF- M.Barnett, ET, KBrom (F.Winterstein, Yates, Stimson)
    HLF- SJ, M.Moses (Elgey, Jacks)
    CTR- Whare, Moga, Idris (Kelly)
    WFB- TTrbo, RTS, Hayne, Phythian (Cotric)

    With Whare looking to play wing this year I am not sure he is worth the gamble.

    In the games last year he got big minutes he was VERY average.  In saying that, the price is worth the risk.  Just not for me.

    In games where he played over 40min last year he averaged 37 in 47.5min. If that's "very average" for a 200k player, i'll take very average every day of the week.

    Fuck, didn't read it properly.  No, McInnes/Suli then I reckon.

    Have you de-Cammed?

    Will probably run a Cam/Mac attack.

    Just working out 2nd hooker. Not risking Brailey.

    I think I will go Maubbs black widow cousin in Sauaso Sue. If he stays 2nd row there is clear value

    I'm aware of that, but you could also surmise that he's a more attacking 2rf who will score more tries with more minutes

    Can I just say thanks to Random for doing to reviews of everyone's team, thanks to everyone else for their input too.

    Imagine if we only just found out about the Jack's news when Hooper started tweeting about it, there would be even more panic!!

    Kaufusi is a real worry if he doesn't start, plenty are playing him as a starter or a reserve

    Not sure if it's been mentioned here but Riley Jacks will partner Cronk in the halves and Munster will go to fullback.

    For those thinking it may have been the case (few going by team lists) Young-T will not be playing any fullback this year and therefore is unlikely to be any use in fantasy.

    thats being a bit selective. he scored 4 tries in the 6 games he played more than 40 mins.

    i am playing him though.

    But he has not played since last year, so how did he get his concussion.

    The injury list says he is indefinite and he has had some serious concussions in the past last year and in 2015. To me it seems like the indefinite may mean a bit longer than 1 or 2 weeks, and Kaysa has been pushing it for quite some time. I think it is worth the risk and much better odds than Brailey. If Segeyaro comes in I have the choice, and Pritchard is an easier upgrade than Brailey and is capable of scoring more.
    Not worried about Brown potentially filling in at Hooker to give Pritchard a rest?

    De Gois played in first trial v Titans not sure if concussion happened there or at training

    He seemed to be favoured as a starting 2rf even before Tohu's injury, so I'd say he's pretty safe for the first 8 weeks

    Kaufusi is now a regular starting second rower in the Storm system at a bargain price, so IMO he is worth a try.

    Yep, fair call, I understand why he is so popular at that price, I just don't like the look of him in my team personally.

    Yeah, I clarified that comment-his scores were okay but his base stats were very average. Completely understand why so many people have him.

    Loving the Faufusi talk! Personally I am steering clear of both him and Kromwich, so they will hit 100 between them tomorrow night.

    You're welcome Very Happy
