Seriously considering Rayner with the limited value with the fwd rookies this year. Don't see Ryan, Garlett, Venables and co scoring enough to warrant an on field spot. Starting fwds Heeney, Billings, Petraca, Christensen, Rayner and Fritsch

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF no mention of Murphy = he's not playing

Guess it made sense, the 2017 runners up playing 3 debutantes in round 1 would have been strange

This changes EVERYTHING! I need to find cash to turn Murphy into Naughton or Coffield

Sydney are doing everything that can to avoid playing him.
He was never going to play in round 1, it was just wishful thinking from the fantasy community

Cameron will dominate in the NEAFL, while Sinclair will struggle as the first ruck

Last year they had Tippett and Naismith as first ruck options, this year it's just Sinclair and Cameron

Only a matter of time before he plays

Do you expect them to play 2 garbage truck rucks then or are you expecting him to overtake Sinclair?

I expect them to line up how they did last year when everybody was fit

Buddy, Reid and Towers as talls
Naismith Tippett Cameron and Sinclair as ruck/forwards

Sinclair had an interrupted pre-season as well, every chance he re-injures himself

I have no doubt they'll try different things and rotate around, but I am confident that they'll end up confirming what they already know, that Sinclair is not a good first ruck, and that he's better as a 2nd ruck/forward

Anyway, for $123k I'm locking him in. First Friday night match is in round 5, I'll no doubt have a rookie dropped/rested by then to give me a donut for loophole purposes
