NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 67

Nice solo try here from Coates back in May in one of his two games for Tweed. Lots of Inglis about the run. Hopefully we see this today even if we lose by 50.

Real life performances do not always correlate with fantasy scores. There are many examples of this including Cooper Cronk, Sam Burgess, Boyd Cordner, Addo-Carr are all real life guns but not fantasy guns
There’s also the reverse, Moses, Bromwich, Mahoney, Cleary all average higher than the reigning dally m player of the year

He has already played big minutes at lock this year and many people have said that he is the warriors best forward so I would think they want him on the field for as long as possible

And there is only 1 player in the game averaging more than 65 (Taumalao) so I don’t know who are the guaranteed players that will average higher

I never said anything about real life vs. fantasy scores. I'm talking about minutes. Murray and Arrow are two examples of origin level players that play LK for their respective clubs and they play in the 60 min range. Throw Finucane in there too now. That's pretty much the max for every team's LK except Jake. Tevaga isn't that good to think he'll go anywhere close to 80 mins at LK. JFH isn't either and that's come to an end now.

The guaranteed players that will average more than Tevaga are too many to list. The people who traded in someone other than Tevaga this week (Twal or Matterson) or are saving their trades to pick up Cook, Jake, Tom, Klemmer, Teddy, Hunt, Munster, Moses, Fifita and Ponga back in if traded out certainly aren't dumb for passing on a gamble with Tevaga and going for a proven gun even with 1 less game.

Broncos will win this.

I’ve already written a fair few posts on why Tevaga will average 55+ starting lock and I don’t want to keep repeating myself

You know, you don't have to keep repeating yourself, everyone is pretty clear on where you stand with Tevaga. People don't have to agree with you though. He's played two games starting at lock and your already comparing him to Jurbo and Lolo, which is why no one is taking you seriously.

Took Sharks 1-12 only a small bet

Quoting myself I said something about Tevaga won't surpass Jake's 54.6 average even if playing 80 and I'll stand by that. Jake offers more on attack and is a fkn robot. My main point was about minutes though and Tevaga won't be suddenly playing 60+ regularly, especially if he can't stop breaking down.

I mean you never know he might become an elite gun, but it's a bit early to call just yet. My prediction, averages about 50 in 60 minutes.

If Tevaga averages 50 (which I personally think is unders) then a non-16 player would need to average 55.6 to get get the same points
There’s only 10 players to average more than this including Drinkwater and DCE who will drop below 55 before the end of the season

And I’m not sure about the comment saying he isn’t that good to go anywhere near 80 minutes when he played 73 minutes last week.
He played 56 minutes this week including time on the bench due to injury and still matched it with Arrow, Murray and Finucane minutes-wise. I think I saw somebody saying he missed 15 minutes with HIA (but was actually ankle injury) so without that break he would’ve got 71 minutes

Because both games were injury affected it's hard to know what his actual minutes will be. Everyone's just guessing I reckon.

I wish you could bet on Dugan going down.  Would only pay $1.10 though.

Thoughts on Tevaga?

He's injured. I wouldn't trade him in.
