The pricing of some of the players in this format is so different to SC lol.

Loving my fwd line, prepared to take a risk on Milera in this game with him being such a bargain price.

Quite happy with it overall, any major issues let me know (y)

Looks pretty solid for now, only 4 different to me on the field for backs, mids and rucks which is no surprise for us.
Forward line a lot more differences.

I am finding the R2 spot a lot harder in this comp, do you pay up for Gawn even thou he seems way over priced with Jackson cutting into his time, but then there's such a clear cut from Gawn and Grundy are over the 3rd best scorer.

I think gawn is a very iffy pick in SC, but understandable. In DT I see him only as a last resort. Just doesn't have the same upside to cover the risk of a dropoff. Don't have any answers about where to go instead but I will be exploring all alternatives in preseason.

Looks really good to me...not far off my side too. A few pods here and there but I can't fault this starting team at this stage of the pre season

I like Witts a LOT more in this format where he's not punished for his trash midfielders and incredibly mediocre directional tapwork and just rewarded for getting his hands on it a lot. One of those rare rucks who is generally better in DT than SC, even on raw score!

Need to see him play and make sure he's alright but cheap enough to place hold at 69 pricing with 3 consecutive 92+ (incl 104) seasons and good durability in prior to the ACL last year. Always looking for a better pick but he has a lot more keeper range here where neither of Darcy or NicNat is a proven premium scorer and Gawn has the same concerns as in SC.

Gawn was still at 105 though over the last 9 in DT, so still on that higher level but if Witts were to hit mid 90s you'd at least have a debate that he could be kept for the season if Gawn sustains that.

ROB also very much in the equation, his 2020 was elite and his 2019 was right up there as well in this format.

Darcy also undervalued here, averaged 102 over the last 14 if you remove round 23 where he stood in a forward pocket for 3 quarters on one knee and didn't do a damn thing after being injured... of course injury is a repeat story with him.

OMc can also have a case made as could Lycett without the ruck share.

They're the two I keep rotating through R2 at the moment.
Witts, if he can stay on the park for the first third of season should be nice stepping stone to the best ruck.
Darcy, can he bridge the gap enough to the top 2 that you won't be leaking too many points in the back half of the season and the cash saved starting him is used right.

Almost an impossible task this late but yes I'm gonna "attempt" one last league ....

- The SCS RDT 1 league doesn't seem to have enough uptake for now (7/18) ... but a strong core to start with ..
- so I've exited ... and will invite all current members to come across as a starting point ...
- trust me a lot of invites will be sent out in ensuing days to fill it with competitive coaches ...

- Any SCS member is able to join and I will boot those that I don't recognise ...
- If too many I will filter it but doubt that will be required ...

Team name will be SCS - Power Surge
@Snatch .. you better join or I have wasted my time ;)
