Cant see it happening this year tbh. Bit far down the pecking order atm. Yet to become a fully fledged 9 in q cup. I think Broncos would have to be well out of the 8 for drastic changes in 2024

Speaking of bingo
You're very close to striking Easy Tiger bingo
Lay off the Matt attacks or you get to win a break from the forum

Just a reminder that this is a fantasy forum. Disagreeing with someone's takes is fine, but this ongoing prodding a fellow fanatic is not

I don't see why that's funny
It's a reasonable take; he's averaged over 60 only once in the last 3 years,  so being priced at 64 he is unlikely to offer value (especially if you hold through to the first bye or beyond).

I think selecting him is not really about making money anyway.
At the top end you mostly hope that they don't lose value

Sione Katoa is an odd pick? Expecting bounce back to earlier years/early draw?

Kinda like Johnston where he scores loads of tries but doesn’t really have good base. Rest seems stock standard minus a few personally I think are traps (Leniu, Arthars)

Strange and Weekes won’t work together. Both fighting for 5/8

He’s a keeper though with keepers I don’t think as much about value as they’re set and forget like you say. . Haas starts the year big often too if you don’t have him and he takes off you could be left behind. No early byes either like a Murray does. Brisbane run isn’t easy early they’ll play Haas big mins

You still want value where possible in your guns

Especially if it’s a gun you may sell over Origin
