NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 72

Its ridicules that the NRL would allow a bloke who was clearly concussed 2 weeks in a row to comeback so soon. It should be 4 weeks minimum, if not 6. Even if players have no after effects/symptoms it has been shown that it is easier to be concussed again after you have recently suffered a concussion. The NRL needs better and clearer protocols around this

Cheers lads. I think I'll hold Fifita. But with Fusitua also out, any more outs mean I've only got 16, so fingers crossed.

Pretty sure Green said after the game that Morgo won't be playing this week.

I can't look past Cook again, Dragons defence is actually reserve grade standard.

1 Blake is being rested again this week and the other Blake is likely to start for his new club.... Fergo still recovering after having surgery on his knee and Waqa Blake is expected to start for the Eels this week.

Other Injury News:

Niko was in a moon boot and Feki suffered a back injury after the Warriors and Sharks game on the weekend. Montoya out for up to 4 weeks with a medial knee injury

I have $740k and need to bring in a 2RF to partner Murray and Taumalolo.

Is JTrbo going to be the best scorer between now and the end of the comp? Who else should I consider?

I’ve got LoLo, Matterson and Murray.
Jurbo is the one I’m looking at bringing in.

Yeah with Tommy T back (as long as he stays back), I reckon Jake will jag some meat pies. Almost did yesterday but was intercepted.

I also like Matterson. Good ball player, so can get tries and assists.. just that Tigers have a habit of being ass, so I'd trust Jake a little more.

Get both if you can though

For a team that has basically had the same spine all season (apart from a fullback shuffle), their attack is horrible.

How long till lomax is back?

Panthers/Kikau are fighting his charge at judiciary.

Due back this round from nrl casualty ward

Question is where does he actually fit in back 5 - winger is probably their weakest point with Pearson (though their whole backline has been disastrous recently)

If i keep fif means i hav to play tapine in my 13
Should i trade him to matterson?




only have 2 trades left


Leaves me with no cover for frf and 1 trade left.

Could go with sst instead with his dpp

Id just play Tapine. Scoring over 40 pretty consistently

Just play Tapine. Won't be a terrible score and 1 trade is too few going ahead.
Look what happened in just one weekend!

I've only got the one trade left but I have heaps of cover!!! So Klemmer to FRF SST moves up a spot on the bench. I am also chucking Burns in my WFB spot against the Dragons and looping Drinkwater and Mann in my EMG. Burns might even ride out the rest of the year in that spot. 56 without doing much is great

Yep roll with Tapine. That's what a decent player like him is for - saving a trade when a gun is out for a week or two.

Sometimes your back-up scores as well as or better than the guy you were gonna trade in anyway and that hurts to see on your bench the times you do burn that valuable trade.

I think SJ has proved to be a decent scorer for the run home.

Not surprising, he's been training the house down.

Coach has big wraps on him.

I couldn't imagine having the trades to be worried about someone like SJ. Same with guys like Murray and Nikora who killed it this week after heaps of people benched or traded them.
