NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 71

Jazzy's attack has definitely suffered from playing longer minutes.

Fantasy-wise his points are great but most coaches don't really consider that when they're making their decisions.

If he works hard on his fitness through the off-season and recovers from his niggles, he'll be a gun lock next year but he's not there right now. The problem for the Warriors is that he's still easily the best they have in that position, he just isn't effective in attack when playing 80mins at the moment.

Okay so who will pick up his defence and running metres if he gets benched? Adam Blair? Lol. Just because he's made a couple of mistakes doesn't mean he should be benched, at least he's trying to make things happen. He is always first to make a tackle, that's his energy, I don't see other Warriors forwards bringing that in defence.

Just 1 mill will do me. Cheers mate.

Feel a bit sad for JRey. He was signed by the Tigers as their long term halves pairing next to Brooks but injury and Benji have gotten in his way and now he is set to look for another club.

Suppose we shouldn't bother emailing fan hub lol lots of complaining happens here about a bunch of things. Sometimes too much, but tbh the discussion here hasn't been that bad

There's sending emails to a company when their product does not worked as intended and then there's going through a match and picking out 10+ incidents where someone perceives the wrong call was made.

Referees make mistakes. There are a hundred variables that influence a match outcome. A missed tackle here and there, poor defensive read, brain snaps.

People who say fuck all that, it's the refs fault should just breathe, take a big step back and remember it's just a game.

Can't really stand him.

Have strong feelings about his sportsmanship and character.

Don’t know a single tigers fan who wanted him. They need to play him a bit just so clubs can see a bit of output from him, otherwise tigers will be paying 80% of his salary whilst he plays somewhere else. Titans like over paying, he could go there

Problem is, he is normally the first cab off the rank to fill in at CTR if there is an injury; however, if he can stay fit and playing 2RF/Lock for the rest of the year a normally 45pt average second rower is fantasy gold at CTR.. especially one that is 398K. Has a pretty big ceiling and Panthers in good form. Only problem is Kikau has a magnet installed in his hands that forces every single Panthers player to pass him the ball.

Haha yeah where was this Kikau when I brought him in!!

Yeah agree with the first cab of the rank. Just feel like a Xerri > Yeo could be a useful trade. Even though it leaves me with 2 trades.

With the current shuffles with the squad it probably favours Xerri a bit, every chance he busts out another 70 sooner rather than later. Trade would be a decent money grab and probably more consistent 40+ scorer; however, as you say you only have 2 trades left so money isn't what you need.
Xerri = 25-70 point scorer with 40pt average.
Yeo = 40-65 point scorer with 45pt average + DPP.

I would probably go Yeo with his DPP and PODness in your position if you want to climb some ranks, which is only necessary if you have other CTR coverage.

I'd take JRey at the broncos in a heartbeat. Especially if Tigers will 600k of his salary. He'd drive our young fellas around the park nicely.

Maybe we could do a swap for him and Darius?

Tohu Harris will come back in to his 80 minute edge role and Blair will more than likely move back into the middle.

Jazz has been less effective in attack with the extra minutes IMO.

Awesome.

Anyone know when we'll hear about Ponga?

Harris isn't back for like 3 weeks so no reason Jazz shouldn't be starting until then. He should still keep starting after that anyway if form warrants it, just 60 minutes a game or something.

No but it's a big time match against the Roosters who have Teddy back. They'll want Ponga playing if at all possible.

Friday 3pm should at least provide a clearer picture with the two reserves.

Final fitness test tomorrow for ponga.

Yeah I'm not saying he'll lose the starting spot, but you would think his minutes may decrease once Tohu is back.

Hopefully we know before the first game.

I'd call that a binding contract right there

I'll take half a mil hey, I ain't greedy like the rest of you lot.

If he's playing 60mins which is probably about what he should be playing imo, I think he's more effective coming off the bench after that first 20mins. That's where he's damaging against fatiguing forwards.
