My question is what is more important Cameron playing and averaging 60 for the first ten rounds or a donut for a captains loop hole???

Mids are too valuable to have a donut and there is no 102k priced players with D/F eligability to float with Sicily.

So my thinking is it is Olango or nothing in terms of floating donut.

I started Witts last year and it was one of my greatest supercoach picks, barely anyone had him. Feel like i should count myself lucky and not try it two years straight with Lycett hahaha

I thought everyone had him.

Depends if you have set and forget rucks or not. If you do I would just go with Olango to use the captains loophole but if you have a riskier pick like Lycett then Cameron becomes very important

My question is does this even mean Cameron gets a game or does Sinclair just become the #1 ruck and have others pinch hit?

Don't think Sinclair will play in it with his ankle injury so we might not get the full picture but hopefully Cameron has a big game

Sinkers #1 with others pinch hitting, Reid, Towers, Aliir all capable

Hickey, Lycett, Cameron locked in for me

Sydney are versing GWS which won't really give a great indication either as Lobb won't be playing.

That's true. Still, a big game from him will give the Sydney selectors something to think about for round 1. Especially considering they play Westcoast round 1 and will likely want 2 rucks if they are coming up against Nicnat and Lycett

If Cameron is named u just about have to pick him. Set and forget sounds great in theory but if a 1-2 week injury happens to one of your guns then you'll kick yourself for having to trade or cop a donut when u could have picked Cameron. Last year we had Nank to swing into the rucks, there's no-one this year.
There's Murphy or Ballenden for only 15k more than Olango. Picking Sicily even more worth it now.

Agree with ubeaut. Nothing worse than coping a donut.
