Speaker 1: Hello, super coaches, it is time for some mid range madness.
Speaker 1: Everyone thinks about the keepers and the cheapies, and we've
Speaker 1: talked about them a lot on this podcast, but the
Speaker 1: mid ranges there are some seriously good options on off
Speaker 1: of this year, We've got some seriously good a seriously
Speaker 1: good lineup here as well, with the super Gas Whisperer
Speaker 1: here for his podcasting debut.
Speaker 2: How's your team shaping up?
Speaker 3: Good Man?
Speaker 4: Good, very very fortunate to not open the app for
Speaker 4: a couple of days, which is our first for me,
Speaker 4: it's normally every couple hours, so it's going to be
Speaker 4: settled for maybe until teamless tonight.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I cannot get into that app.
Speaker 1: I just have to avoid it as much as possible
Speaker 1: otherwise it to do my head in jet. Good to
Speaker 1: have you back, mate. How are your tips for Partners
Speaker 1: dot Com on the weekend?
Speaker 5: Good mate, tip to winner on Friday night eleven dollars.
Speaker 5: Didn't tip one the rest of the weekend. But it's
Speaker 5: all good. There's racing every day, so fine, you.
Speaker 1: Can make it up mid range madness, as I said,
Speaker 1: But to start off, we're going to hit you with
Speaker 1: our hot take our part of the year from the
Speaker 1: mid range price bracket.
Speaker 2: Who are you.
Speaker 4: Thinking Tiger's Voyd, No surprise, Alex Safer four hundred and
Speaker 4: thirty five k He's he's a big one. Two point
Speaker 4: five percent ownerships are quite low average forty four last year.
Speaker 3: But he did play four games on an edge.
Speaker 4: Over sixty minutes where Tommy average sixty nine point three
Speaker 4: in those four games base of forty nine and a
Speaker 4: half as well.
Speaker 3: So good floor average thirty eight.
Speaker 4: Tackles a game outside of Lockie Galvin, which I think
Speaker 4: is oppositive. People are going to about Luai, but you
Speaker 4: expect more defensive pressure to be going to Lewis side,
Speaker 4: which could open up a spot for Safar.
Speaker 2: Very good. I don't mind that at all. And your
Speaker 2: sneaky pod comes in at what zero zero?
Speaker 6: Now do you there?
Speaker 5: Two and a half zero per cent ownership from the
Speaker 5: Warriors Ali Leott Tower, He's just like it.
Speaker 6: He's a big, powerful outside back.
Speaker 5: He debuted against Penrith at Magic Ground last year when
Speaker 5: the Warriors got the win, scored a try pints out
Speaker 5: sixty five. Two other big scores that year a few
Speaker 5: outside backs leaving Roger positional change. Maybe he's obviously a
Speaker 5: wait and see to see if he gets named. But
Speaker 5: a zero p cent ownerships.
Speaker 6: One I want.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I really like him. I can't believe he's actually
Speaker 1: at zero percent ownership. My one's a few a bit
Speaker 1: above that zero percent ownership bracket. It's Tyrone Munroe, so
Speaker 1: big season with injuries last year, but in games where
Speaker 1: he played eighty minutes, he averaged almost sixty scored a
Speaker 1: try a game. They've got Cody Walker back at five eight,
Speaker 1: which I think suits what suits all the rabbit os.
Speaker 1: We've got Wayn Bennett back at the club. They've got
Speaker 1: Latrell Mitchell hopefully fit and firing, so I think it
Speaker 1: could be a lot of tries for Tyrone Monroe this year.
Speaker 4: You've also got Alex Johnson. It could be out for
Speaker 4: the first month, so if he's played on that left
Speaker 4: which we know south to just hammer that left hand side,
Speaker 4: that sixty could could very well be surpassed.
Speaker 1: Yep, That's what I'm hoping for. And they don't have
Speaker 1: a buy it till pretty late as well. Also, your
Speaker 1: mid range no go the guy to avoid from the
Speaker 1: start of the year.
Speaker 5: Yet mine is cooler Kefu Finny fool Archy. He's very
Speaker 5: popular at the moment, and there's just a lot of
Speaker 5: our of edges there At Recliff. You've got Felicie Cathusi,
Speaker 5: who's gonna switch from the middle to the outside backs.
Speaker 5: You've alsoly got Cannelli Lemouelo, who's done a job at
Speaker 5: Redcliffe the last few years and apparently they've been switching
Speaker 5: at training.
Speaker 6: I worry you with cooler kefe Is.
Speaker 5: He comes off the bench in that twenty minute role
Speaker 5: just an a nightman that you can't get out of
Speaker 5: his side.
Speaker 6: So he's the one I'm going to be avoiding.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he'd have to be starting and playing eighty minutes
Speaker 1: for me to consider him because he's PPM and work
Speaker 1: rate well, I love watching him play. You're not really
Speaker 1: a proper super coach player. A huge word crate. Who's
Speaker 1: your no go?
Speaker 3: Mine's at thirteen percent, so quite popular.
Speaker 4: Neurocup Blaze Ta Lenge five hundred and sixty two K
Speaker 4: no doubt he's a phenomenal talent.
Speaker 3: Let's not get that. You know, mistaken.
Speaker 4: But Jerome Luay in his last five seasons has gone
Speaker 4: sixty two, fifty nine, fifty six, fifty eight and fifty
Speaker 4: nine Blazers priced at that Louais arguably is the best
Speaker 4: six in the world. You're gonna have to, you know,
Speaker 4: surpass Lewis's output by a fair way, and I just
Speaker 4: don't think he's going to get that role to start
Speaker 4: the season. But he could be a guy that we
Speaker 4: talk about after the Buyers when he's bottomed out at
Speaker 4: say three eighty to four hundred k.
Speaker 3: I reckon once he gets famil with that pendusyst and
Speaker 3: he could be picking it up. But no, go for
Speaker 3: a round one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, no going for a round one on him.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure five eight might be his best position
Speaker 1: in NRL. I don't think it is his best position. Coach,
Speaker 1: he'd probably want him at center, maybe even on the wing.
Speaker 1: Certainly our fullback would be good, but that's going to
Speaker 1: be hard to happen with Dylan Edwards there.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I only played the two games last year at five
Speaker 4: eight through a forty eight and a thirty. You're still young,
Speaker 4: but it's just a really unknown role with him in
Speaker 4: his panthide.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll be avoiding him and just wanting to see
Speaker 1: how things unfold there at penoth what's question Mark's there?
Speaker 1: My no go you're speaking of Jerome Lui before, I
Speaker 1: don't know if you're.
Speaker 2: Going to like this one. I'm saying no to Leui.
Speaker 1: He goes from the best team of the modern era
Speaker 1: to arguably the worst. I know that people say that
Speaker 1: he is better at half back and he's better when
Speaker 1: he's running the show, and that is true, but he
Speaker 1: ran the show for basically half the season last year
Speaker 1: when Cleary was out injured. So I just don't I
Speaker 1: don't get this, going from the best attacking team to
Speaker 1: the worst.
Speaker 2: Jerome Leui, don't even go there.
Speaker 4: Love, I love the content, I love what you put
Speaker 4: out every week. I can't get behind that.
Speaker 3: I can't get behind the LOUISLANDA Tommy.
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 1: I just think that, like five eight is a very
Speaker 1: flat position. Even go with no guns there. I think
Speaker 1: half back into the position to target in the halves
Speaker 1: because you've got Cleary with a red hot start to
Speaker 1: the season. In terms of the schedule, you got Nico
Speaker 1: Hines with probably even better schedule to start the season.
Speaker 1: So a load up there. I'm going to load up
Speaker 1: at fullback and then at five eight. I don't want
Speaker 1: to spend too much cash, So no Lui. I think
Speaker 1: Luke Metcalf's a good option, and there's a lot of
Speaker 1: good mid rangers. We'll get to them later in the show,
Speaker 1: but for me, no, LUI might even go a sneaky
Speaker 1: Dylan Brown. At some stage, I was thinking Cody Walker,
Speaker 1: but then he picked up that cart. Yeah, it could
Speaker 1: be in doubt for around one. All right, let's just
Speaker 1: go through some of the most popular mid rangers. Terror
Speaker 1: or may do we even really.
Speaker 6: Need to talk Aboutnock him in?
Speaker 2: You were just saying before he's at what fifty?
Speaker 3: That's low, that's just ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about him too much. We move on
Speaker 1: to Corey hawse Bro.
Speaker 2: I like him.
Speaker 1: He's looking really fit. He's kissed and made up with
Speaker 1: the coach. We'll see how They've got a trial this weekend.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if he'll be named, but we'll see
Speaker 1: how trials unfold. But he just needs a slight improvement
Speaker 1: in minutes and we should see some big sid coach results.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're talking about hot takes earlier. My hot take
Speaker 4: Corey Haws right back in maroone this year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I don't even think it's that much fun.
Speaker 3: He looks good.
Speaker 1: I just think if he's got his head screwed on.
Speaker 1: Now I think he could look, I mean, he can
Speaker 1: do anything.
Speaker 6: Has he meant that he relateship with Ricky?
Speaker 2: You think, well, that's.
Speaker 1: By the sound of it, they've kissed and made up
Speaker 1: talk for the entire season. How great coaching from Ricky
Speaker 1: show just not talk to a player.
Speaker 4: Look, he comes back in the best shape his career,
Speaker 4: so maybe maybe it.
Speaker 2: Let's get on to Tino.
Speaker 1: I've looked for full disclosure, I've got Tino in my team,
Speaker 1: but I am looking for someone else.
Speaker 2: I don't like the buying around one. I don't like
Speaker 2: the A C. L.
Speaker 1: I'm looking for someone else, maybe Lindsay Collins, maybe Leam
Speaker 1: Martin running off Nathan Cleary. But I do actually have
Speaker 1: him in my him currently.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Tino is an interesting one with the buying round
Speaker 4: one and the uncertainty with the ACL. I think it's
Speaker 4: actually a blessing because we can extra week to look
Speaker 4: at him. Come around three, Jet we're going to be
Speaker 4: scrambling to get all these cheapies that we've missed or
Speaker 4: the mid ranges that we have to jump off. We're
Speaker 4: not pressure to back it in the Tino in round three.
Speaker 4: We can wait the extra week and pick him up
Speaker 4: just before that price rising round four.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm keen of avoid him early, especially with the
Speaker 5: round one by I don't want to spend up at
Speaker 5: front row Ford. I want to throw a may in
Speaker 5: there and then the rest just sort of cheap guys
Speaker 5: like Corey Hawsbur and the like.
Speaker 6: But do they sort of easy him back in?
Speaker 5: You know, they got Read and Kenill Gillard there, so
Speaker 5: they don't really need Tino to be that Alpa male
Speaker 5: early on.
Speaker 3: No fight awaker as well.
Speaker 1: Ye yeah, yeah, I mean and he was only back
Speaker 1: to full training quite recently, so yeah, it's not like
Speaker 1: he's had an incredible run this off season into this.
Speaker 1: I think they do eas him back onto Jack Bird,
Speaker 1: who I've been on and off about four different times
Speaker 1: this season. I don't like the injury history, but when
Speaker 1: you actually look at the stats, he's quite durable. He
Speaker 1: doesn't get injured that often. He's just got the touch
Speaker 1: of the Dugans about him where he gets hit from
Speaker 1: somewhere and he's down, you think he's gone for the season,
Speaker 1: and then he comes back on the field fifteen minutes later.
Speaker 1: His record at Lock is pretty good, averaging around seventy
Speaker 1: at lock recently, which is predamn good.
Speaker 2: I think I've done a backflip on him. I think
Speaker 2: jack Bird's in my team.
Speaker 4: I am obviously keen with the stats are really good.
Speaker 4: The only concern to me is those stats basically playing.
Speaker 3: Eighty minutes a game. Is he going to get that
Speaker 3: with his body now? I'm not too sure, But you
Speaker 3: talk about his injury record, He's.
Speaker 4: Actually played more games in the last four years Nathan
Speaker 4: Cleary has, and everyone's jumping at the bit to get Cleary.
Speaker 4: So if you're gonna be kem Cleary, I think you've
Speaker 4: got to have a look at jack Bird.
Speaker 3: Sanawing is obviously the great duel for him as well.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that's the best thing about him.
Speaker 5: I've had Benchaboy, which is my ten last few years,
Speaker 5: and he's been in valuable, just been able to switch
Speaker 5: him up and down just to make trades. It's so
Speaker 5: flexible on a snakey paying apes for jack Bird. He's
Speaker 5: what three hundred and seventy eight K twenty twenty two
Speaker 5: when he was healthy and playing on the edge at
Speaker 5: the Dragons.
Speaker 6: He obviously went to the centers last year.
Speaker 5: Flanagan came in a four week period he had scores
Speaker 5: of one hundred and thirty one, ninety eight and eighty eight,
Speaker 5: and he was doing a lot of offload and during
Speaker 5: that he.
Speaker 4: Can definitely look for work as well, which we talk about.
Speaker 4: You know, Finifi Wearcky, you're going missing in out of games.
Speaker 4: Jack Bird's a guy that wants the ball and wants
Speaker 4: to be in and around it. So it depends. There's
Speaker 4: a couple of Tigers options that we're going to chat about.
Speaker 4: How many of those do you want from apparently the
Speaker 4: worst team in the Comforcoy.
Speaker 3: This time, but not too sure.
Speaker 1: You'll be going Alex safer than Jack to Luke Metcalf,
Speaker 1: I like him. I've got him in my team. I
Speaker 1: think he looks there's about four guys going for those
Speaker 1: half spots for two half spots at the Warriors.
Speaker 2: Shawn Johnson's obviously left the club.
Speaker 1: I think Metcalf gets it and I hope kicks goals.
Speaker 2: That's probably the key. He's in my team for now.
Speaker 4: Yeah, in my team as well. The only concern for
Speaker 4: me is if they pick Adam Pompey in the centers.
Speaker 4: I don't think they have always too much of a
Speaker 4: threat for round one. Adam Webbs has spoken about Tanner
Speaker 4: bringing a lot of depth to half back, but if
Speaker 4: Metcalf kicks, I mean we started, we saw him last
Speaker 4: year yet start of the season he was great until
Speaker 4: that injury.
Speaker 3: We're getting him at that reduced price as well, which
Speaker 3: is great.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's got that tryscurring ability too, does and he
Speaker 5: scored maybe the first couple of games of the season,
Speaker 5: he scored a try and they'll.
Speaker 6: Straight through the middle.
Speaker 5: He's just he's a quick guy. The only thing about
Speaker 5: him is he can pick up an injury. That's the
Speaker 5: only concern, and you don't want to be spending trades
Speaker 5: on him early to switch him out for it.
Speaker 1: Still, he's quite under price, so I'm pretty happy to
Speaker 1: get him in. I've got him in a position where
Speaker 1: I don't really want to spend too much cash start
Speaker 1: the year.
Speaker 2: Ont far who White. I like him so thirty three.
Speaker 1: Minutes last year, No Jared Hargraves, No to Bernua and
Speaker 1: no mate. Yeah, so I mean you'd think he can
Speaker 1: improve on thirty three minutes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just by how much? Though?
Speaker 4: My concern is Radley can play eighty, Crichton can play eighty.
Speaker 4: You've got nap Butcher who's got a good motor in him,
Speaker 4: and some of like Lindsay Coins is going to command
Speaker 4: big minutes kind of Watson seems he tipped to play
Speaker 4: nearly eighty. So it's like, where are the minutes coming from?
Speaker 4: If you can get them? You know, his PPM has
Speaker 4: been fantastic. He loves, he loves and loves a tackle
Speaker 4: break and good jewel as well. You know, he could
Speaker 4: be flexible with guys like Aaron Clark or Corey Hawesbrough,
Speaker 4: but for me, it's just I want to see the
Speaker 4: minutes before I tack that plunch.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's no game breaker for me, but he's a
Speaker 5: solid pick there, like he's going to do his job
Speaker 5: every week. You're not going to want to play him
Speaker 5: every week, but he's got the duel and if you
Speaker 5: say you get ten o n tremain there one of
Speaker 5: them has by, you can easily plug in the file
Speaker 5: hit White in there and you know he's not going
Speaker 5: to get lower than twenty provided at the minutes to there.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Isaiah PAPALII because I'm a little bit
Speaker 1: torn on him if he comes in obviously at the
Speaker 1: Panthers this year if he comes in plays eighty minutes
Speaker 1: to start the year, then you would think that he
Speaker 1: improves on what he did with Tigers last season. But
Speaker 1: they've got a few guys floating around there who can
Speaker 1: play that position. I think the key is going to
Speaker 1: be Scott Sorenson where he ends up this ipap maybe
Speaker 1: starting in the centers and then switch into the middle.
Speaker 2: I think that could be the case. But if he's
Speaker 2: playing eighty on the edge, he'll be in.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Of course, ady on Ag is locking him in good
Speaker 4: tip coach pegery, which is what we always look for.
Speaker 4: But you've got Luke Ghanner, You've got Leam Martin, you
Speaker 4: he's got sirens, and you ain't got guys like Press
Speaker 4: and Ricky and mav guy that probably aren't going to
Speaker 4: get minutes, but they're there.
Speaker 3: So it was like, where as you go, I.
Speaker 4: Paped can play in the middle, which we know he's
Speaker 4: probably going to be great for his minutes, but Jet,
Speaker 4: if he's playing eighty, it's going to be very hard
Speaker 4: to pass him up.
Speaker 5: Well, if he's playing his best footy, they're going to
Speaker 5: play Aim Maydy like if he goes back to what
Speaker 5: he was doing in PARAMOUNTA there's no way they don't
Speaker 5: play maighty minutes.
Speaker 6: And you've seen the last.
Speaker 5: Year or two Scott Thorrenson put up a massive scores
Speaker 5: on that left edge. Even if he plays in the
Speaker 5: middle and plays sixty minutes, he's going to get a
Speaker 5: lot of bass. So maybe we get a duel out
Speaker 5: of him later if he plays in the.
Speaker 4: Pressure, the screens already to be handed.
Speaker 1: I do like Leam Martin actually as well. If Nathan
Speaker 1: Clear is feeding at the ball, he's got a really
Speaker 1: good record with Cleary providing the ball for him. Jerome
Speaker 1: Leuai's next, I mean it's a note for me. Did
Speaker 1: we get your opinion on I don't think I was.
Speaker 5: I was scarred on the wire playing halfback last year
Speaker 5: because he absolutely decimated.
Speaker 6: My sharks at Shark Park.
Speaker 5: I think you put out about one hundred and seventy
Speaker 5: or something. He had the ball on a string. I
Speaker 5: actually liked Drome Lore. I don't think if I can
Speaker 5: have him, but I don't.
Speaker 6: I wouldn't. I wouldn't talk anyone out of get I.
Speaker 2: Just think it a relatively similar price. You can go
Speaker 2: Dylan Brown.
Speaker 6: I think be fun.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's gonna be fun to find I like.
Speaker 6: He's got a bit about him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, one of the guys that hasn't left my team
Speaker 4: since the picker came open. So well, I'm going to
Speaker 4: talk to a brick when it comes a little ay
Speaker 4: with me unfortunately.
Speaker 2: Well, let's move on to Connor Watson. You reckon.
Speaker 1: You said before he could play close to eighty minutes.
Speaker 1: I think that's I think that's true. And he's got
Speaker 1: that dual position where you can switch him around with
Speaker 1: someone or sand and Smith. I'm gonna I'm going to
Speaker 1: run with two hookers, two cheapy hookers, I should say,
Speaker 1: in sand and Smith and marmozellas I've got at the moment.
Speaker 1: So a great guy to have in that back row.
Speaker 1: You can switch him around. Look, I like it. He's
Speaker 1: got at least half a season to play close to
Speaker 1: eighty minutes. Proven super coach, performer, who's got work create
Speaker 1: an attack in him as well. I think that with
Speaker 1: the halves that me short on halves know Luke Keary
Speaker 1: obviously this year and Sam Walker has that ACL So
Speaker 1: a lot of the play is going to go through
Speaker 1: Connor Watson.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and no Brandon Smith for the first you know,
Speaker 4: a couple of a couple months as well. So unless
Speaker 4: they run like a Zach Docker cloff the bench, I
Speaker 4: can see a guy like Watson getting big minutes price
Speaker 4: at five to eighty. We saw Max Plath. Maybe you're
Speaker 4: gonna be coming off the bench of the Dolphins, which
Speaker 4: would rule him out. Then it opens up a door
Speaker 4: for a guy like Watson. Make a good point at
Speaker 4: double cheapy hooker. It can go wrong, You've got good
Speaker 4: cover there for Watson to come in and feeling.
Speaker 6: If need be ye, yeah, form me.
Speaker 5: He's a clear second or third option at hooker, and
Speaker 5: he's one hundred k cheap than Harry Grant, So I
Speaker 5: think he's out probably be pretty similar. I don't think
Speaker 5: he'll clips Harry Grant in total overall scoring. He might
Speaker 5: be missing over the origin period as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the.
Speaker 5: Thing they're considered. But yeah, he's got points in him
Speaker 5: as we saw last year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I don't. I just don't think he
Speaker 1: can touch Harry Grant to start the season.
Speaker 2: Give him. He's got that buying round two.
Speaker 1: So Connor Watson's one of the top guys in that position,
Speaker 1: but you can pick him in another position to start here.
Speaker 1: We'll get some questions in a second before that Finnish
Speaker 1: fur Rearky. We all agree he's a little bit iffy.
Speaker 3: Role is just uncertain for me.
Speaker 4: If he had a stranglehold in eighty minutes we saw
Speaker 4: him at the Cowboys, I think you have reached something
Speaker 4: like fifty five sixty points a game playing eighty.
Speaker 3: But yeah, with Lemonwelu Kafusi or in Keeley as well.
Speaker 4: He looked up in the trials last year and he's
Speaker 4: been back to full training as well, so they've got
Speaker 4: a lot of edges there and I'm just not too
Speaker 4: sure if it if he gets the full lady.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, As I said, he's my wonder a void,
Speaker 5: so I completely agree.
Speaker 1: Questions coming through. We've sent out the put the feelers
Speaker 1: out on Twitter. We've got a question from Hosking, who
Speaker 1: is your hot take my man from last week? Did
Speaker 1: have also news that's just literally popped into my phone
Speaker 1: from Fatima Kadoo. Some early mail out of this weekend's
Speaker 1: trials is that Hosking won't play this weekend, but he
Speaker 1: will play the second trial. He's been struggling a bit
Speaker 1: with a calf injury. So the question is Hosking, who
Speaker 1: you Reckon is the hot take maybe part of the year.
Speaker 1: Would you take him if healthy or Isaiah Papalii.
Speaker 5: Hosking every day of the week. Yeah, he's probably like
Speaker 5: seven sixty k cheaper. He's got a massive work rate.
Speaker 5: He's got points in him. As I said a few
Speaker 5: weeks ago when he was playing at the start of
Speaker 5: last year, he worked out maybe one hundred and ten
Speaker 5: eighty six the first two games start of the season.
Speaker 5: No Eliott Whitehead, I think he's going to be one
Speaker 5: of those out for sort of dogs in that forward
Speaker 5: Pack's Ricky's man too, so yes, I quite.
Speaker 3: Like it if he gets eighty.
Speaker 4: Now they've got young Maddy Nicholson's come over from Warrington
Speaker 4: and he is a specialist right edge player.
Speaker 3: He doesn't play anywhere else and that's Whitehead's role.
Speaker 4: I think Hoskin will start, But does Hosking get eighty
Speaker 4: that's the big question for me if he does. His
Speaker 4: pedigree is absolutely insane. We saw it at Panrith. We
Speaker 4: saw it at the Raiders as well when he got
Speaker 4: the stint when Whitehead was out. But it just comes
Speaker 4: down to minutes with a few of these guys, so trials,
Speaker 4: you know, it starts this weekend.
Speaker 3: It's going to tell us a whole lot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just on Maddie Nicholson. So he will get named
Speaker 1: this weekend for timas telling one, so he will get it.
Speaker 1: Says he's going to get a bit of time up
Speaker 1: against the Panthers, but obviously no Hoskings. Well it's a
Speaker 1: good battle going on for that slot back. On to
Speaker 1: Twitter and we've got I want to wreck this one
Speaker 1: to you. What's the ideal draft position for.
Speaker 2: A twelf coach league? Asking for a friend.
Speaker 1: It's difficult because it depends if you're going snake yeah,
Speaker 1: or if you're playing captain, if if you've got it,
Speaker 1: depends how many people you depends on your leg's settings.
Speaker 3: Really, for me, it's it's pretty clear.
Speaker 4: I want Cleary not just because he's the best player,
Speaker 4: but because he's so much better than the next half back.
Speaker 3: If you look at full back, you.
Speaker 4: Know there's probably five or six guys that can all
Speaker 4: arrival for the best fullback. But if you're not going
Speaker 4: to get in that first, second or third pick, then
Speaker 4: I'm a really big fan of you know, eleven or
Speaker 4: twelve to get that hook to come back around and
Speaker 4: get two not premiums, but two really really good options.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I like going late as well.
Speaker 1: But Nathan Cleary, Yeah, I definitely if you're in a
Speaker 1: captain league, I think Nathan Cleary is is the top guy.
Speaker 1: And you look at the stats in Supergo's draft right
Speaker 1: now and he is the most popular number one pick
Speaker 1: as it currently stands, going off all the mock drafts
Speaker 1: that are currently going on at the moment. Ghoola Will
Speaker 1: he take Mollow's starting spot at the Dragons? First of all,
Speaker 1: I think Gula is a pretty decent signing for my Dragons.
Speaker 1: I know we're short on medals. You know, he's not
Speaker 1: a superstar, but the other option was Matt Lodge, so
Speaker 1: I'll take m Ray Gler. Is he a super coach option, No,
Speaker 1: he's not. Neither neither of the Molos are. In fact,
Speaker 1: I looked at the Dragons the other day. I do
Speaker 1: think they've got a player over ten percent ownership. Is
Speaker 1: a real dead spot for super coach this year.
Speaker 4: And that's surprising because they've had, you know, super coach
Speaker 4: guns in Damian Cook, Valentine Holmes. Clint Gustin's had his
Speaker 4: moments to super coach relevance too. But it's just so
Speaker 4: much uncertainty. As for Gooler great NRL signing, I think
Speaker 4: if you're looking for a dragon, Toby Catchman is only
Speaker 4: to r at the moment, he will get Jill because
Speaker 4: it looks like he's training in the mill.
Speaker 3: So really, if he does a good Jill, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: throw hands.
Speaker 4: But he's training really well and he's about four or
Speaker 4: fifty k great PPM. So if you're looking for dragons,
Speaker 4: I think Tobe Cashman might be the one for you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So the word is that he had been training as starting.
Speaker 1: That was before the Guler signing, so I'm not sure
Speaker 1: what's going on there now, but yes, there is a
Speaker 1: decent chance that he'll get.
Speaker 3: I keep forgeting. I'm talking to the band that does
Speaker 3: the jewels.
Speaker 1: And the other thing with that, I know a lot
Speaker 1: of people think about round six, twelve, and eighteen. It's
Speaker 1: the rounds that we had jewels. We also do it
Speaker 1: before round one, after those round one teams are announced,
Speaker 1: so keep an eye out for that. What do you
Speaker 1: think about Gooler Cooler.
Speaker 5: I think he's a great football player. I don't think
Speaker 5: he's a good supercoach player.
Speaker 6: I really like it for the Dragon. I think he's
Speaker 6: going to add a lot.
Speaker 5: Flunnel will love him, but you know he'll be thirty
Speaker 5: to forty points a game.
Speaker 6: You wouldn't think he's going to be a.
Speaker 1: Superstar With starting two cheap hookers. Should we have covering
Speaker 1: the toro f position to make trades possible. That's basically
Speaker 1: what we're talking about with Connor Watson just before is
Speaker 1: a perfect cover for that.
Speaker 4: So I guess for me, in my personal opinion, I'd
Speaker 4: prefer to have Papolliti, but with my specific teams, ou
Speaker 4: up with having two cheapy hookers. I want to have
Speaker 4: that bit of insurance with Smith because he's my half
Speaker 4: back to.
Speaker 3: At the moment. I've also got kind of what's in
Speaker 3: there as well. So just a bit of flexibility for me.
Speaker 6: I think your man going two cheap hookies, I couldn't
Speaker 6: do it.
Speaker 5: You're going to have to play one of them every
Speaker 5: week and there's a big chance one of them would
Speaker 5: just get thirty to.
Speaker 1: Forty sand and Smith so he mid fifties when he
Speaker 1: was starting in the halves last year, so if I
Speaker 1: can get fifty five from him and the stats from
Speaker 1: mamozellea's pretty good when he plays big minutes as well,
Speaker 1: So I'm happy starting them for let's say five rounds
Speaker 1: to start the year and then hopefully just get to
Speaker 1: Harry Grant as soon as possible.
Speaker 4: Also, people are forgetting that with the new flex edition,
Speaker 4: you can take a bit more speculation with one of
Speaker 4: these players and if they do bomb out, then you've
Speaker 4: got insurance and they're not going to be in your
Speaker 4: top seventeen.
Speaker 6: So a point any consideration.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Next, we've got Camill Graham, so big news on him
Speaker 1: this week. He has broken his hand, but he is
Speaker 1: in contention for around one very cheap for super coach,
Speaker 1: but this preseason injury has me a little bit worried.
Speaker 4: I have to say, yeah, I mean very very underpriced
Speaker 4: considering what he's done in the years gone by, but
Speaker 4: had that Sternam issue. The only player that's ever had
Speaker 4: that has been Jack Byrd, who we've chatted about today.
Speaker 4: We've talked about injury issues and now his hand it's
Speaker 4: sort of like snowballing and I just want to see more.
Speaker 3: Before I take the plunge.
Speaker 5: As you said to Cody, Walker's black at five eight,
Speaker 5: So they're going to go left a lot more anyway,
Speaker 5: So is he going to get all that ball? I
Speaker 5: don't know, but I think he's await and see given
Speaker 5: he's played very little footed in the last few seasons,
Speaker 5: so he's obviously a gun footy player and when he's on,
Speaker 5: he's on. But there's a lot of options there, especially
Speaker 5: at south has a lot of options too, so.
Speaker 1: Nawaga Niawazi looks like he is a decent chance to
Speaker 1: get a center spot. With Joseph Sawyer, Litty and Joey
Speaker 1: Marnhu having left the Ruses, They've also don't have Michael
Speaker 1: Jennings anymore, who played quite a few games from them
Speaker 1: last year.
Speaker 2: He's locked him from my team for now.
Speaker 1: I might even go with two value players from the Roosters,
Speaker 1: with Robert Toyer or Billy Smith or who ends up
Speaker 1: in those sports.
Speaker 4: I think obviously three three can't go into two, but
Speaker 4: whichever should we get, they're both going to present value
Speaker 4: and has been training a favorite at center, looks very
Speaker 4: very good.
Speaker 6: He's a unit.
Speaker 3: If you're sending him down at Couldie Beach, he is.
Speaker 3: He's a monster.
Speaker 4: Obviously, big petigree coming from the Wallabies and impressing the
Speaker 4: right people at training.
Speaker 3: Which is always a good thing.
Speaker 5: We saw him once last year and how good was it?
Speaker 5: It was very exciting. But the only thing I've got
Speaker 5: is I don't think THEO is going to be much.
Speaker 3: Good this year.
Speaker 5: They've lost Suley, they've lost Miney, they've lost Torell May.
Speaker 5: I don't think that I'm the Chad Man. I love Chad,
Speaker 5: but the Chad's no service star. Like, I don't think
Speaker 5: they're just going to have anywhere near as amount of
Speaker 5: points that they did last year. They just don't have
Speaker 5: that strike that they used to have. And I want
Speaker 5: to avoid as many players from the rusters of that camp.
Speaker 2: It's just there's so many of them are so cheap,
Speaker 2: so we.
Speaker 3: Kind of, yeah, have to Yeah, it's the Tigers country,
Speaker 3: isn't it.
Speaker 4: You sit there and I don't want to pick players
Speaker 4: from the Tigers, but some of some of those underforming
Speaker 4: teams produced the best of kh assets.
Speaker 3: So it's like I've got to take it.
Speaker 1: With a take Kobe Heatherington thoughts on him. So the
Speaker 1: chat out of the Broncos and look, Michael McGuire is
Speaker 1: throwing around.
Speaker 2: A lot of stuff.
Speaker 1: It's I guess management one oh one where he's trying
Speaker 1: to fire up players. He's saying, this guy's in contention,
Speaker 1: this guy's in contention. Everyone's in contention for a starting spot,
Speaker 1: apparently at the Broncos this preseason. So how seriously are
Speaker 1: we taking that Heatherington will start at lock and Patty
Speaker 1: Carrigan will move to prop Because if it happens, Heatherington's
Speaker 1: a pretty decent by.
Speaker 4: I mean, there's been a lot of uncertainty over the
Speaker 4: Broncos his presets, but one thing's main consistent, and that's
Speaker 4: McGuire's love for Kobe Heddington seems to be speaking about
Speaker 4: him in such high regard.
Speaker 3: If he plays thirteen at three hundred and.
Speaker 4: Thirty k he's he's humping out fifty five minutes, then
Speaker 4: he's probably at least ten points under price, and that's
Speaker 4: that's what we want.
Speaker 6: He's a mage man.
Speaker 5: He's a tough, hard working player that you know, like
Speaker 5: he just his technique and the tackles is so good.
Speaker 5: He just takes a million runs a game. He gets
Speaker 5: in every single tackle, like his base is going to
Speaker 5: be a normal.
Speaker 4: He could be very similar to Morgan spin his last year.
Speaker 4: Not the most flashy player in the world. But if
Speaker 4: he's putting up forty five fifty points in pure base
Speaker 4: then at THRENDERD and thirty K it's hard to I
Speaker 4: think he's a lot more explosive than Morgan Smith's to
Speaker 4: be fair, which isn't hard.
Speaker 3: I think he'll do a job. He'll do a job
Speaker 3: for manage. If he wants that middle sewn up, then yeah, Coope,
Speaker 3: you could be that guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I've mentioned Tyrone Monroe before that he's a good sneaky
Speaker 1: little pod for supercoach this year.
Speaker 2: Jack Howarth, I look.
Speaker 1: I like pretty much everything allowed about Jack Howarth, except
Speaker 1: that he's got that buy in round two, so it's
Speaker 1: not for me.
Speaker 2: You can get on him later if he kills.
Speaker 4: He's in my team purely down to the fact that
Speaker 4: he's scored. His price is actually quite sub and injury affected.
Speaker 4: I think when he's playing eighty minutes in the centense. Yeah,
Speaker 4: whage is about fifty five points a game second full season.
Speaker 4: If we're going to back in some natural progression, then
Speaker 4: a bit of value there. And if you're having guys
Speaker 4: like a Billy Smith or a Jackson purd Off he's
Speaker 4: named or tamale F and the Raiders, you do have
Speaker 4: a little bit of cover there and you're sending bench
Speaker 4: in round two.
Speaker 3: But he's such a talent.
Speaker 4: We've heard for years and years and near about that
Speaker 4: reported five hundred k year deal. It seems like Bellamy's
Speaker 4: finally give him his crack, and when he gets he
Speaker 4: looks really good.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's rock solid, isn't he. He's going to get
Speaker 5: forty to sixty every week. But I some think he
Speaker 5: has that upside. Like the storm go a lot, they
Speaker 5: go right a lot with Hughes elikatoa warbrick out there.
Speaker 6: They seem to get a lot of the points on
Speaker 6: the storm rather than the left edge.
Speaker 5: Even so that with Monster sort of taken a back
Speaker 5: seat last year. Obviously he was injured a bit. But
Speaker 5: if I on someone in the storm, it to be
Speaker 5: anyone on that right side attack, I wouldn't go left.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the question marks for me is how
Speaker 1: many storm can you actually carry? Given that they've got
Speaker 1: that buying around two, I think he can only carry one.
Speaker 1: And look how if he is probably the number one
Speaker 1: for me because I don't want to go Harry Grand
Speaker 1: or Karen Monster. But still I think I'll be avoiding Blaysterlangy.
Speaker 1: We've spoken about it, and I think he's a risk.
Speaker 1: Casey McClain is an interesting one. So the Panthers team
Speaker 1: is going to drop this afternoon. He's not going to play,
Speaker 1: which is a good sign because it means that he's
Speaker 1: in contention for that round one spot, could have a
Speaker 1: little bit of competition from his brother.
Speaker 4: I think we forget that his brother was first choice
Speaker 4: at this time last year but had injury. His brother's
Speaker 4: also a specialist winger, whereas whereas case he's more of
Speaker 4: a more of a center, has been through the grades,
Speaker 4: and you've got, you know, study to Ruver that's now
Speaker 4: left for the Tigers. So it opens up a wing spot.
Speaker 4: So mcleana be named round one. It's just a question
Speaker 4: of which right. We obviously want we want Jesse to
Speaker 4: be cheaper, very consistent scas he punched out last year.
Speaker 4: It was just because all the base that those pans
Speaker 4: outside backs. Yet they're going to take a million runs
Speaker 4: a game.
Speaker 3: That's just there.
Speaker 5: That's their way, and he's obviously going to get a
Speaker 5: few trials. I think he was playing centerl last year
Speaker 5: when you field him, so you much prefer him on
Speaker 5: the wing. Yeah, I think he's a great choice.
Speaker 4: But there's a lot of choice there at center wing, absolutely,
Speaker 4: especially especially that Matt.
Speaker 3: Founder Key Rangers. We've had about so many guys. You know,
Speaker 3: Tom's keenan on one run keenon on how if.
Speaker 4: You've got other other guys there that we've had about,
Speaker 4: even Jack Bird that can feel in it. That that
Speaker 4: midle age center spot. So we say, very cliche, but
Speaker 4: definitely is a wait till teamless year. He's not cheap either,
Speaker 4: is he's about It's not like he's no spoiler at
Speaker 4: three hundred k. Now, he's not like his brother that's
Speaker 4: two to seven and you see brother gets the job
Speaker 4: of course.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And finally last one, Cameron Monster. He's in the mid range,
Speaker 1: but that's because he was so injured last year and
Speaker 1: he's still struggling with that injury. He had some surgery
Speaker 1: over the off season. I don't see this one with
Speaker 1: the buying round two. I don't even think you'll be
Speaker 1: getting on Cameron Munster presumably he plays Origin. I don't
Speaker 1: think he could be maybe a good pick for the
Speaker 1: run home, but I'm not thinking of getting him in
Speaker 1: before about round twenty.
Speaker 4: I think Monster's saving grace is just how Barren five
Speaker 4: eighters this year on the surface, so that's that's his
Speaker 4: only saving grace For me. I'm not keen on him,
Speaker 4: but I can understand why people would be because you've
Speaker 4: got Dylan Brown coming off pastal acl You've got Lua
Speaker 4: with an uncertain role.
Speaker 3: You've got other guys that are just like sort of
Speaker 3: price of what they're at. Munster has value, but you
Speaker 3: need to have full faith that he gets back to
Speaker 3: the months that we know.
Speaker 5: Yeah, love minus that round two by and Penroth they've
Speaker 5: got in round three, They've got a really easy run
Speaker 5: in Melbourne do so you can almost just get him in.
Speaker 5: You know, after that Penrith game. If he looked all
Speaker 5: right in the first round, you know, if he's not
Speaker 5: injured or anything, no one seems to be going him.
Speaker 5: So I did say just before that I much for
Speaker 5: anyone on the right hand side of Melbourne, but you
Speaker 5: don't really doesn't really matter.
Speaker 3: The company to a league of his own.
Speaker 5: When it comes to score, he could just make yeah,
Speaker 5: and he did have big scores in h last year.
Speaker 5: I think you had a few hundred and maybe had
Speaker 5: one hundred and fifty in there.
Speaker 4: Just bite being injured for probably most of the seasons.
Speaker 4: So he's got the pedigree, he's done it for years
Speaker 4: on end. It's just how's that how's that hip going
Speaker 4: to hold up? It's a very unique surgery.
Speaker 6: Six hundred k.
Speaker 5: It's like you're paying up like eight hundred k that
Speaker 5: you would in the previous season.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And a final question, not even a question, a sledge
Speaker 1: that's popped in on Twitter that we'll finish with the
Speaker 1: Whisperer is hitting the big time. Just don't bring up
Speaker 1: last year's rank.
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, do as I say, not as I do
Speaker 3: when it comes to last year.
Speaker 1: For me, mate, how about you bring up your AFL
Speaker 1: rank though you do better in Super kh AFL than.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean to be fair, it wasn't hard, but yeah,
Speaker 4: AFL was good. I'm gonna be back playing it this
Speaker 4: year and Tim, Tim and the boys did a great
Speaker 4: job down in Melbourne and we'll be handed again this year.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, big thanks, huge debut from you pick.
Speaker 1: Thanks again to Jet. We'll catch you next week.
Speaker 2: M
