I may leave Avo out also.  I don't see the appeal of him enough to warrant still starting with him.

Yeah, I've decided on Bird, Roberts combo, with Niu at 21.
swapped Avo out for Croker

Paulo or Tauk? Tauk safer isn’t he? Pretty much guaranteed some extras with GK whilst Paulo extra game time could be bollocks or not consistent

Now I'm back thinking of getting Host instead of Averillo and playing in 17 but that means Alvaro to CTR and can only afford Fusitua but might not be horrible 21st man?

I don't see upside with Paulo. Was already playing some big minute games last season. Priced at what he'll average near enough I think

Just how nuts is it only running with Crichton and Stefano to cover your forward pack?

This is what I've done too mate.  I like the Roberts/Bird combo a lot.

Losing Bird allows for better team but CTR only Roberts and Niu if Averillo out

Paulo is fitter this season. Had the worst drop off in PPM in the comp with bigger minutes last year. Could potentially play the same minutes, with higher PPM in the bigger minute games making a difference.

I think so mate, sometimes players elevate in larger roles, but think Tauk is safer. Maybe I’ll go back down to Lodge

I am taking a punt on Latrell. Looks like he might be a bit of a POD around here.

Pretty nuts. I am the exact opposite. Have 5 EDG, 7 MID but only 1 extra player covering all of HLF, CTR, WFB, with lots of DPPs though actually making it 4 HLF, 4 CTR, 4 WFB.

Trade Paulo for Tauk after round 13

Only wanted a valid argument so I could have an Eel in squad but I’d rather Tauk or go Lodge I think

Where my six-hooker fam at?!?!?

Paulo will play Origin.

Who are the players we think will start R1 with a mediocre score and get put in consideration for a R2 trade out?

Averillo please play you cockhead don't you understand if you don't play now Wakeham is going to cuck you

Is Fusitua worth it as nuff CTR cover to do Averillo>Host and play in 17?

TU: Yes
TD: No

Liddle will be a key man for several reasons this year; his speed and fitness under the new, faster rules could be a huge asset.

"I'd love to [play 80 minutes]," he added.

"I think that's the goal for every hooker, especially with limited interchanges. But whatever Madge wants to do, if he wants to put another hooker on the bench or wherever he wants me, I'll just play that role.

"The hooker is involved in everything. I think a bit of speed out of there really helps, it goes a long way with these new rules. It's going to be fast."
