Can't go wrong with those guns, but if leaving one out, personally I'd leave out DCE. So many halves to pick from.

I know a lot of people are keen on Munster. I love him as a player and can see how he might be better, but then he might just be the same. Who knows what effect Cam Smith leaving will have on the whole team. I see the potential in Lam, but I don't want him sitting in my run on 13. Who else are you liking in the halves?

I might have imagined that one.

Munster is underpriced based on previous season and legacy 70/80 minute halves games

2020 avg over 70 mins - 53
2019 avg over 70 mins - 54

I think coupled with some extra attack potential with no CS9, that is the reason he's in my team

Moses, Munster, Brooks, Fogarty, Lam, CHT, even Milf and townsend have had some love.

I've never wanted Brooks in my team. Someone mentioned earlier how he has been slated for 'his year' multiple times and I think of the boy who cried wolf. I think mostly, I like the idea of solid gun halves and then if TLT is kind, I would throw Lam into 14-17. But hey, I've still got time to change my mind about the whole team.

There is a few sub-guns, or as I prefer to call them "mid-rangers" .

I still think Super-Cows has a ring to it

Haha, I gave that post a thumbs up.

Call me Welshy but I'd go Morgan over a few of that lot.

They've had Clifford training at 7, would you still pick Morgan?

won't get his huge KM with Clifford, will need to rack up the attacking stats to return to gun half

Yup, unless its someone of Thurston's calibre who will overcall him I don't think it matters too much who he's paired with, more whether or not he stays on the park and the forwards do their bit.

I think if he's beside Clifford then he needs to be the creative one and use his running game, leading to the attacking stats. If he's beside Drinky then he plays more of an organiser and picks up more kicking. I dunno, to me the biggest risk is him and the team rather than his partner.

I forgot to do this when you mentioned him but there just isnt enough data.

He is playing in what has to be the premiership favourite side and his small sample size last year showed he can score well.

The plus is starting second rowers get a minimum of 60 minutes. Kikau, Yeo, and Martin basically took turns playing 60 minutes. The only concern is while Capewell is set to be starting it sounds like Martin, Kikau, Capewell will all rotate starting on the bench.

So lots of upside especially while starting but questionmarks long term.

Nah, can't get excited about Morgan. Hope I'm wrong and he guns it.

Going huge in the halves sheesh!!

I've had that halves pairing for a while. Cleary for captaincy and Cherry-Evans for being a step above Moses with potentially more points from no Turbo and I think I heard he might be goal kicking???

Rolling the same two super halves.

I don’t understand why I’m in League 6 when I finished in the top 500 and I am a regular poster on here..... I thought a rank of 476 would get me in L3 or L4.....

Damn I wish he had Centre DPP.

It doesn't matter what league you are in at the end of the day. There's no money involved, you don't get a trophy, no ones really cares unless they are in League 4 with myself this season.

The last 2 seasons it's just been inevitable to have him in your team but with his suspension and his price tag everyone is off him. It's gonna be good to see some different captaincy options now!!

Wait you dont have Payne in your team? I thought everyone had him.

Plus you ain't in league 6, you are in league 3? Personally I'd drop you into league 6 for whining
