General strategy notes:
- Regardless of what I take in round one, it’s best available mid in round two
- The top handful of forwards, backs and rucks are daylight ahead of the next crop
- Don’t reach for mediocrity on one line to ignore a genuine gun on another
- Players like Atkins, Murphy, Heppell, Sinclair should gain DPP at some stage | draft accordingly especially if lacking depth back/fwd
- There is absolutely nothing wrong with drafting for trade value
