Didn't do anything in trials and has to have the worst centers and wingers in the comp to try to set up.

Camo knows his stuff, and is consistently not shown enough love (upvote him!)

Camo has a cabinet full of NRL Fantasy trophies from competitions on this forum
it wouldn't surprise me if he takes out the overall crown one of these seasons

That’s why I’m not revealing my full team

It’s going to be this season

I’m still kinda surprised I finished 139 last year after a garbage start

I guess TMM's low price tag makes him a worthy coin goat

He's registered mate.

Great at fantasy and great at avatars. What more could a man want, maybe a handicap in single figures..?

What was all that hullabaloo last thread then! What a dupe

Feels similar to me but Amone started last year at 350k in comparison to base price for Katoa, who is more likely to be EMG rather than starting

Think SOS is a bit less dominant than Hunt, SOS in 2021 at Warriors wasn’t that dominant

Also SOS isnt very good

I am having so much trouble filling up the centre position. I have to go cheap there and currently my centres are I. Thompson and HSS with Alamoti as backup.
Is it possible that Taane Milne, who is back in round 2, comes straight onto the wing, leaving out Thompson?
And I've read where Jordan Rapana won't be covering the fullback spot, leaving him and Cotric as the wingers. Doesn't sound good for HSS to gain a spot.
Who do we expect to cover for Savage and play fullback round 1?

Hopoate?? Idk really. But if it was, he’s at that same awkward price as HTF and CNK.

As mentioned earlier, I didn't see any of the trials (which may have shone a light on this), but have read a couple of things that suggested Kris might play fullback with HSS to Centre.
A Canberra fan might be able to confirm if this is plausible?

CNK isn't a playmaking fullback, makes points through his running game. So generally he should be a solid point scorer, rather than up and down relying on tries or try assists. I can see him being a 35 guy, but I have WFB's stacked in my squad already so leaving him

BTW I don't think there is anything wrong with the Warriors wingers, but badly need Vailea to deliver on potential in the centres.

TMM will be 6 all season for the Warriors, and already a leader in the squad. I think he's decent value for good security, hopefully he'll make enough coin to be a worthy guy in the squad.

Can't see Jackson Ford getting more than 40 minutes if he's in the side, pretty sure he's a trappy dude. Nuiokre and Curran will be getting 60 mins+ each in the second row. Barnett might have a tonne of work to do though, but can see him getting 60 minutes because of it.

I'm really struggling with my forwards, and centres. Battling this off season, bring on TLT.

He's aiiight!

I just have fond memories of him making me money that year I suppose..

I’ve heard the issue facing the raiders backline is they are mostly to stupid to learn structures, a change of position isn’t going to be easy for kris. However not many options, Schiller and hopa maybe?
