Out of personal interest I tried a Burton and Aitken draft quickly and came up with

Randall
Haas Uto DWalker
Capewell Aitken
Cleary Burton
Crichton Suaalii
Pap Paulo Coates

Hastings Ilias RFM Blore
1.1m spare for reserves

Backs are weak for sure but it could definitely be done, especially with a favourable TLT

Whats the story with Savage at 20% ownership? Autofill or am I missing something

He has scored over 70 in 50% of his first grade starts.
And he has a cool name.

More seriously on Savage - his price is reduced because of the game where he was put on as 18th man incorrectly so subbed off again shortly after.

Only 2 games sample size but 26 and 73 are good scores for a guy priced under 30.

I thought we were all just waiting for @moanaman to select the autofill team, and then we were all going to steal that team  

Autofill team is set, mostly.....

I wish for my fantasy team perspective but I think it will be CNK. I have CNK pencilled into my team at the moment as I think he is a bit underpriced due to shortened games returning from injury.

It was is my first draft and I’m sure there will be 15 more, so I’ll see if he makes the cut.

Happy New Year all, excited to be back.

CNK definitely on my shortlist. Clearly 8-9 pts underpriced

Savage is on my shortlist for the Macho Man GIF value:

We've had a Carty thread, we've had a Milf thread. Can we start a Savage thread ??? For no other reason than the gifs

That seems a bit ambitious to me.

With 2 point TBs he has never averaged over 40 for a season. There's a bunch of guys $80-$100k cheaper who I think are just as likely to match his scores.

Yeah my bad, was thinking he's 44 average on the old scoring but its more like 42

Anyone here rate Josh King as a cheapie? 319k is a bit more than most cheapies but by all accounts he's been killing it in pre-season training and there's a huge hole in the Storm pack with Finucane gone, Kamikamica being stood down and NAS being an antivax idiot.

Round 1 I would imagine King plays lock, then back to the bench in round 2, but going off his scores last year, he only needs 35ish mins to average 35-40, and is priced at 28. Given our lack of middle forwards, I think he's a good chance to get those minutes, or potentially more since Cheese would be taking Finucane's minutes so someone would have to fill his own spot on the bench.

What’s the magic number again please mate is it 12452?

Anyone jumping on the Leniu train again?
