    Hey on Ponga, I was tempted, but opted for a cheaper Miller due to his work rate. Ponga isn't crap, he is just a headache I can do without.

    Same reason I skipped Tom Turbo - they could both go huge, but I will wait and see, I don't need them to start the season, but they are on the watch list.

    Pick Ponga - Turbo won't get out of reach after a single game, whereas missing a strong start from Ponga could make it hard/stupid to get him in later.

    Is all this Ponga talk an elaborate honey trap to confuse Rabs??

    Its amazing how perspective changes depending on which side of the fence you are on:
    - last years owners - never again!
    - Casual non owners last season - wow, look how cheap Ponga is this year!

    For what it's worth, last minute changes are often poor decisions. You've had weeks to decide on your team, stop changing it for the sake of it.

    To add 2 cents, I think his scoring has huge fluctuations from tonning up to uninvolved poor,

    Number 6s bar a couple don’t seem to score well, especially when paired with a ball dominant 7

    Newcastle are not normally good,

    So ponga for me was an early avoid

    If he looks like the 2nd coming of Lockyer his price won’t be too prohibitive next week

    I’d love him to brain it cos it would be good for Newcastle (who I have soft spot for) and great for the maroons


    Unfortunately if he looks like the second coming of Lockyer in fantasy terms thats a hard avoid

    I went for Pele and Preston instead based on basement prices.

    I might regret not having them after 4 rounds, but I was too unsure on their minutes and JS.

    I've gone Ford because of the dual and that he's cheaper than Uto - means I can ditch AKP and put I. Thompson back in which should help since AKP has no base
