Mistake?

Initial fantasy team picks are based on how cheap players are priced compared to expected performance, not just on how well their team will perform. If all the Souths players are priced at the level they are expected to perform at, then its fine to not have any.

Cook is probably worthy of consideration, and some people think Latrell will be worth it.
But other than that and the afore mentioned potential edge pick, I am not sure any souths players are crying out to be picked.

I think ARey has been overlooked behind new toys like Fogarty. Doesn't fit in to my team but the better Souths are the more he'll score.

TLT watch:
Storm: Who gets the wingspot? How will the fwd pack line up?
Rabbitohs: Host or Lawrie Koloa?
Knights: Will Watson play 13?
Bulldogs: Is Cotric fit? Waddell on edge? Where will Averillo line up? Wakefield in the pic?
Broncos: Riki on edge? Lodge starting prop? Dearden or Croft?
Eels: any surprises here?
Warriors: LAM starting prop? Who will cover for Egan? Is BMM starting?
Titans: Tino or Peachey at 13?
Roosters: No real surprises here, Lam at no 6?
Sea Eagles: Croker at hooker? or are we going to see something different? Gosie or Davey?
Panthers: Capewell or Martin?
Cowboys: Drinkwater or Holmes?
Raiders: Not many surprises here due to drunk driving issues
Tigers: Mbye or Laurie at 1?
Dragons: Bird at Ctr? Ford on the edge? Feagai inclusion?
Sharks: Magou at 13?

Great summary. I'd add Alvaro watch to the Dragons. Bench hooker questions for Brailey / Turpin / Rein etc.

Given the access that fans/journos get to training, the only real question at the Broncos is who will partner Milford. The shoot out is on.

Toohey's strike rate with newcastle team news is about 99%.

The rest, surprises would be welcome

Do you mean Farmer silly?

If you had to pick 2 out of Lodge, Hetherington and Hoy who would you pick?

Team structure im still tossing up is whether to partner Teddy with a second gun wfb like RTS or pappy and have someone like Lodge in mid, or go stronger in mid with Welch or BSmith and Isaako at wfb

Yeah Toohey is solid.

I'm curious to see if the Dragons are going ahead with Kerr on the edge after the disastrous trial game.

BREAKING: Brodie Croft training at halfback!
Appears he will be no.7 in round one unless Kev changes it up again. Interestingly Corey Oates is training at left centre.

@ChrisGarry7
Doesn’t appear Herbie is fit for round one. Was always touch and go for it.
