NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 69

I somehow need a 212 player to pop up that will keep his spot all year. Not liking my chances.

This week or next week??

I noticed Jack Stockwell is starting prop for Titans @ 212k but he'd lose spot when Arrow returns (R21/R22) and/or when Brennan changes his team for no reason

Other than that one of the Broncos wingers might get 4 weeks with Shibisaki's fractured finger

Coates is still 212. Crossland could somehow steal the 6 jersey?. Stockwell starting prop? Wakeham with Forans injuries?

With all day tomorrow to think about them you're gonna use them.

Already have Coates.

I wonder what the go is with Stockwell and why he's starting.

I can probably wait til next week. Was looking at Naden as backup but that extra coin I will need. Only downgrading Lomax but might wait til next week. Lomax also the perfect cover if he gets the return but then leaves me short on coin.

Whitbread shit the bed and Brennan thought, oh a 110KG boxheaded spud will go well at lock.

How likely is it that Cook backs up guys? Really need to trade Brittain to Burns or a cheaper WFB or else I’ll have 16 this week

Apparentely Paix suffered syndesmosis last night and out a few weeks.

Might play reduced minutes. Wayne is likely to rest his Origin players at some point. Always has.

Cook owners: he will be fine to play no need to rest him
Non Cook owners: he needs a rest he got a couple of knocks last night

Haha I'm in the 20 minutes to start each half camp :p

For non Fifita owners - he scores significantly better without Gallen in the side. Coming off a two week break, should do well this weekend. Up against the Storm though so non-owners might not cop an 80 this week, just 70

Arent Storms v Sharks games really bad for fantasy scores?

Earlier this year not one player scored above 50, and in one of the games last year no one score above 50

Who are these Storms you speak of?

7. Arey/DCE
18. Klemmer/Twal/Crichton
19. Burns

1 trade + Martin this week then 18th man comes in next week

versus

7. DCE/Arey
18. Jurbo/Matterson
19. Burns

0 trades + Fainu's 55's from now to R21 when I grab my 18th man

If you have a situation where Jurbo or Matterson aren't good enough for your starting 17, then that is a strong team

Anyone who got on the Whitbread train like me is not going near Stockwell.

Lots of lessons for me this year, but one of the biggest was, don’t jump on unproven/bench middle forwards with unpredictable minutes if you actually want points and/or price rises. Only took me 4 or 5 times to figure that one out.

Could be true. I'm honestly not expecting Fifita to go huge but with no Gallen he should still score well.

Haha the other game that year had Smith scoring 75 and Fifita 68 or something like that so good signs

Yeah, Brennan is a knucklehead
