Nofo could be in for a huge year, his tries were well down and he played the majority of the last year around 70% fit. He’s said he’s back to full fitness and with Teddy gone he could get some massive scores.

Daily Tele has Paasi starting at 2nd row. Cheap and has DPP but not a particularly strong fantasy scorer. Thoughts?

G'day all.
A bit different this year with a new format, but will be interesting.

I'm surprised there's no Cook/Lichaa on that ownership list as they are quite popular on our site.

Great bench, but not sure about some of your starters. I wouldn't start Hiku personally, Lodge and Evans is a pretty weak FRF, great second row though. Halves are an unknown. So hard to pick a half at the moment.

Has anyone looked more into Chad Townsend next to Matt Moylan, when Moylan went to five eighth in round 13 Cleary's scores shot up by 12 points on average (have excluded all games Cleary scored a try in). Wondering whether Townsend can go from a 35 average to a 45 average if kicking goals and getting more kick metres without Maloney.

810 people banking on Hayne returning to form shown 3/4 years ago from the CTR spot. Sheesh

I think I read Holmes is tipped to kick goals

If Cartwright is named on bench, do you still take him? I can turn Graham, McGuire and Cartwright into Harris, Alvaro and Murray and I think I prefer it.

Harris and Murray = Graham and McGuire for much cheaper in my eyes. The other two are a hunch.

I was keen on Townsend a while ago with the thoughts of his extra kick metres, but i went cold after i saw his missed tackle counts in Milches spreadseets

Thoughts?
