I thought this was a joke for sure hahaha.
*Mind blown*

MS

Great team, but with only 2 trades between rounds 1 and 2, I don't think you'll be able to replace all your injured players.

Cheers haha, I thought i should have a new one for 2021 season

Looking at what I can find of BMM's international stats.

Two games for Tonga in 2019 vs GB and Australia. Starting second row, average 68 minutes, 34 and 26 points.

Three earlier internationals I can find without full stats. Presumably off the bench, averaged 19.

Hmm.

He is $246k in the system

I'm looking at Twal, thinking he could play big minutes without Eisenhuth at the Tigers this season.
Any Tigers fans have any insights into whether he is expected to go back to the big minute role he started last season with, prior to injury?

Potential captains with 2020 AVGs over 60. Who are you leaning towards?

PLAYER---------- PRICE----2020 AVG---AVG X2--POSITIONS----CONCERNS

CLEARY------------- 973K---- 72.6---- 145.2---- HLF---------- Can he repeat?
MCINNES------------972K---- 72.5----- 145 -----HOK MID----- Is he staying at Dragons?
HAAS---------------- 967K ----72.2----- 144.4--- MID--------- Will he get less minutes?
CHERRY EVANS----- 866K ----64.6----- 129.2--- HLF
COOK ----------------856K ----63.9----- 127.8 ---HOK
TEDESCO ------------850K ----63.4 -----126.8--- WFB---------Would you captain him every week???
CRICHTON -----------833K ----62.2----- 124.4 ---MID EDG
TAUMOLOLO ---------827K---- 61.7------ 123.4--- MID-------- Will he get better?
GRANT--------------- 823K ----61.4 ------122.8 ---HOK --------Will he get better?
MATTERSON--------- 807K ----60.2------ 120.4 ---EDG
HARRIS-------------- 807K ----60.2------ 120.4 ---MID EDG
CARRIGAN----------- 807K ----60.2------ 120.4--- MID
KOROISAU----------- 805K ----60.1 ------120.2--- HOK
PONGA--------------- 804K---- 60-------- 120 ----- WFB

I assume he'll be changed to $405k for launch. But who knows, is Fanhub so anything is possible.

Hope he goes to $0 like Kurtis Rowe was back in the day

So much value at MID, EDG and HOK, hard to know which ones to choose.

Initial team draft (assuming BMM is at the higher price and doesn't start).

Friend
Twal Tino Watson
Crichton CHN
Cleary Lam
Peachey Mbye (assuming Mbye is fullback)
Turbo Holmes Staines

Riki Brailey Davey Liddle
Averillo LAM Timoko Suaalii

$52k remaining.

Includes 5 DPPs and at least 2 cover players for each position, except for HLF, which would only have 1 extra.

Working fine for me

Here's my current top heavy draft... 14k remaining

Cook
McInnes(c), Taumalolo, Tino
BMM, CHN
Brooks, Milford
Averillo, Bird
Ttrbo, Holmes, Oates

JBrailey, Lodge, Hodgson, Riki
Watson, Niu, Lam, 246k

I actually wonder if it might be worth having a loop early on given you can stack EMGs somewhat and there's potential for a high score to be stuck in EMG

In comparison, last year it was just fill your EMG with Luai + cheapest players possible

Thats my plan with Suaalii.

Loop guys like Averillo and Staines that are going to put up huge scores and stinkers.

I’m just going off Warriors prices posted on nrl site this morning.

Very risky mate.

I only think Suaalii will play 2 or 3 games this year.

Won’t let me in I typed in please let me in 8 times and enter enter enter!

On another note apparently Liddle is training in a knee brace.

Not sure I can take the gamble on him as he may only last 1 or 2 games.

He's on $500k+, they haven't committed that much of their salary cap for him not to play.
