Not a bad team for only $7.25M!
The Outside Backs are a particularly good hunting ground for bargain buys this year. Other players to consider are:
Bjorn Basson (BUL) - $880,000
Gerhard van den Heever (BUL) - $805,250
Lionel Mapoe (CHE) - $795,250
Phillip Burger (CHE) - $577,750
Alfie Mafi (FOR) - $560,000
Kade Poki (HGH) - $860,550
JP du Plessis (REB) - $595,250
Rod Davies (RED) - $800,000
Luke Morahan (RED) - $725,000
Afa Pakalani (WAR) - $500,000
And the most overpriced player in this year's comp? That'd be a straight tie between Bryan Habana at $1,190,550 and Stirling Mortlock at $1.2M - respectively the most expensive OB and Centre. Fantastic players in their day but both now sadly well past their best. I doubt either will make it into the top 10 performers in their position (I'd lay money on Habana not even making it into the top 20).
Awesome bargains, particularly as I think many of the established players have started out higher priced this year. A few of these puppies though, and suddenly Matfield, Du Plessis, Spies, Carter, Nonu, etc are all affordable.
