Which option do you like. Thoughts & thanks:
(a) Moses & Dufty or
(b) Cronk & Hayne
Cheers.

Anyone ballsy enough to go without Tedesco. I've seen a few teams who have.

I'm thinking about it. Now I have, Nofoaluma, Ponga and Inglis as my back 3.

I'm going Dufty, Ponga, Hiku atm. Can't see Tedesco getting as much ball as he did at the Tigers. Extra tries though will probably see his average stay the same

Will Manu be on the same side as Cronk if he gets a run?
If so might he be a POD with those attractive opening fixtures
for the chooks?

Friend always scores better when Pearce is not around.
Lock him in for the season.

I am tossing up whyether to have him or not.
Conflicted between more tries at the Roosters, vs Less involvement in attack now that he is playing in a team that won't rely on him.
Plus frees up lots of cash to go without

If you wanted the highest possible projected score (ignoring salary cap for now)
Cam Smith 62
Fifita 59 Ryan James 50
Cam Murray (c) 130 JTrbo 62 Mannering 62
Croft 55 Pearce 53
Gagai 47 Latrell 44
Tapana 53 Mansour 53 Tedesco 52
Gallen 58
Brown 57
Taumalolo 56
McCullough 54
1007 points - but you'd need a Roosters level salary cap for that
Might work out best possible projected within cap.
Will look nothing like our teams - Milne projected for 13, Garvey for 9

I agree with Milchow, IMO Teddy will be a lot less relevant in a stacked full of talent roosters team and he could be better value later on in the year perhaps, but over 750k for a WFB is intense when you could allocate funds better to secondrowers/hookers etc.
Just got that feeling Tedesco could also get injured too, nothing concrete but he has had knee and concussion issues in the past and he seems to be about due for something soon perhaps. However I could just be trying to convince myself to save money and play a low risk game

Stopping bothering to read at broncos. Clearly wrong.

takaraingi at number 12
337k centre (23 avg). very tempting if true. even if the eels carry 4 big men on the bench

If Brad Takarangi does get a start in the 2nd row, he makes a great centre option at $337k
Some of their logic is strange
" Bryce Cartwright’s departure pushes Corey Harawira-Naera to the backrow"
Bryce Cartwright's last start in the 2nd row was back in round 2 last year. His departure doesn't open up a 2nd row spot
"That means Elijah Taylor will need to spend time at hooker, and Matthew Eisenhuth comes onto the bench."
Matt Eisenhuth started the last 7 games last year. if he comes ont the bench it is a demotion, not a promotion as suggested here
They also leave Lachlan Fitzgibbon out of the Knights 17 altogether, which I don't think will happen. He'll be bench at worst.

If that is the Broncos round 1 side ill eat my hat
Issakko isnt a winger and wont play there.
Oates would not start the season ahead of Alex Glenn even if he does play second row.
Tommy O will start the season in the centres.

Its Foxkids at work again tbh. I do find it funny to see other areas of social media taking them as gospel
