Risk is it’s the Roosters, so they might not need him to consistently play the required 45-50 mins.
I think that's the risk, Robbo seems to spread the minutes around.

Watkins is an interesting one, could actually be some value there. He only played 6 games last season and Titans got thumped in all of them. Didnt score less than 20 including a 20 and 23 that were both reduced minutes. If Titans can find any form, he could do ok.
He's been in Welshy's drafts. All aboard?

2016 was the year that Pearce pretended to fuck a dog and Friend had to everything with two rookies halves wasn't it?

Have to agree. Lomax and Best are pretty shocking starting options. Also don’t rate Brailey at 0.5 PPM while we are putting shit on highly owned.
Agree on all of the above, none of these 3 are in my team.

Dont think you can take a lot from that. He was playing 3 positions at once because our halves were Boyd and Turpin, neither of who can kick for shit.

B. Brailey had a PPM of 0.61 last season, surely that slightly improves, so even if he plays 60mins surelily he can average 38-40 points a game.
You would expect he would run the ball a bit more with a few more darts too, he barely ran the ball last season when he had chances too.
I guess that’s why I don’t like him...PPM invariably doesn’t go up, with more minutes. His sample is 1 admittedly. 1 80min game for 40pts
Don’t get me wrong, he’s fine as a 14-17 so needn’t spend too much time on him. Benching luai for example is letting me get an extra gun

Angus Crichton is in a moon boot which could mean he misses the WCC. Keep an eye on it

I really wanted to get Taumalolo in as well as Fifita in my back row. If Fifita is names on the bench though I could opt to go with Williams instead and use the money on a Fotuaika or someone like that.mattnz wrote:
What turned you around on Tetevano? I had him in my first draft team a few weeks ago and you had advised then that you werent convinced on him.
Just lack of mid range options at prop is what changed my mind.
I’d have to see the Panthers interchange though first and then assess if Tetevano does get 45-50mins, if he does I see no reason why he can’t average around 35.
Still I’m not fully certain he’s not gonna be a trap as others have said. My side will change again by tomorrow mate.
If Tigers have Mikaele and Twal at prop with Packer and Musgrove on the bench I can see Mikaele getting 40mins and averaging around 34 or so which would mean he’d make 120k, maybe 150k if Tigers get a couple of HIA’s in games. So if that’s the Tigers prop rotation I would pick Mikaele.
Mikaele had a PPM of 0.88 last season and he can bust tackles too with a high workrate in defence.

How many minutes would you see Musgrove getting then. Might become a must have cheapie at $246k. Already has 9% ownership.

Who are the players that havent left your team throughout all your selections to date?
Mine are:
Friend
Haas
Leilua Fifita
Mann
Burns
Papy Isaako Brimson
Koroisau Rudolph Magoulias Luai
13 in total that are close to set in stone, just 8 moving slots.

Yeah, because what choice did they have?
But Croft, unlike everyone else in the Broncos, can actually kick.
Maybe Milford still wants to take some of those long kicks when his team is on the backfoot. No biggy, I’ll swap Croft out for a Brimson or C.S’s main squeeze Hughes. Or maybe the game plan will be simplified to help Milford focus on running the ball: Croft kicks, Milford runs. Then Croft will stay. I believe it is why they chased Croft in the first place. That is a Seibold gameplan if I ever heard one.

I can’t believe I’m finding so hard to put Mann back in my team. Was in my drafts before Grant was an option. I just have a grudge after he was useless for me last year, still remember him being on 28 at HT in R15 and then getting 26 at FT when he was playing FB. His versatility is a bit of a curse in fantasy but could be less likely to play FB as Watson could fill in as isn’t starting
It’d be a straight shootout of Brailey vs Mann for me as I’m pretty confident in JMK and haven’t removed him in any draft

Not many, I play around with it a lot (do what you want with that).
Friend, Moses, Papy, Brimson, Lomax, Koro, Brailey, Magoulias, Luai. Actually more than I thought.

A really left-field choice at half for those with big cajones is Keary
I wouldn’t have the guts for such a roller coaster myself, but I have serious déjà vu with his situation- new half coming in that everyone expects to take up the KMs, but instead the established running half ends up adding a new dimension to his game and becoming the main kicker as well, whilst the rookie wilts away from a fantasy perspective. It’s Munster and Croft all over again! I bet Friend hates Flanagan too! (Probably)...

Interesting reliable mid-ranger is Brandon Smith.
He has been given a three point discount on last years average and is on of those tale of two halves to the season characters. Started out with about 10 fewer minutes on average and 10 fewer points.
Over the second half of the season averaged 42 across 10 games. Priced at 35, with the 3 point discount anti-tax. Played a lot of 2RF mixed withe some time at HOK. You would expect that is role is only going to increase from here on in. Very reliable scorer.

I had him last season, had to trade him out as he wasnt getting the minutes needed to make him worth keeping.

If he didn’t have the concussion worry he’d be a much bigger consideration, one concussion and he’ll probably have to sit out for ages

Dylan Walker worth a punt in the centres? Or money better spent elsewhere? I’ve got a team with him and Burns at CTR - a lot of cash in a position that’s so volatile.

Been flirting with both. I think Max King has more of an upside.
KBrom and Kaufusi are pretty much 80min players. So that’s the 2RF on lock.
I think Max fits into the rotation @ prop and gets about 20-25 mins.
