"Nic Nat is expected to be out for the first 2 months of the season as he struggles to recover from his surgery."

Hello Cox? Don't know where I'm going to get the money to afford him though  :-\

Put him in your forward line over Buddy/SJ. Does make Cox almost a must have

I would never consider NicNat for DT but Cox is a big yes atm. Might even find some room for Lycett or "other ruck for WC"

Would prefer Callum Sinclair from a fantasy perspective as he is a rookie priced mature R/F!

would love nic nat to get a few vests to bring his price down, cant see that happening now.

I just cant fit cox into the squad even with him sole ruck.  Sandi Goldy Burger are ahead of him

Eagles fans... who will be NicNats replacement? Lynch isnt there to pinch hit anymore and have seen quite a few times reports that Lycett isnt ready yet...

don't exactly think Goldy is ahead of him... Goldy was sole ruckman from Round 7 onwards last season, and only averaged 85

Sinclair im thinking. Mature age R/F, would fit into most teams nicely but will he get enough games to get an early price rise with Nic Nat expected to return around rnd 2-3.

i guess the other question to ask is that will Cox play all 22 games or will they look to rest him for one or two??

averaged 99 the year before.  Goldy also pick up a concusion and was sick for the last few games. he shouldnt have played but we have no backup. Without those expecting 95+
