NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 74

For those considering Dave Fifita, TPJ has taken the early plea meaning he misses this week. Assume Glenn (if fit) starts left centre again and Gillett (if fit) is right edge.

I reckon Fifita will probably keep the left edge spot now, bu t its another week where we are missing players, so hard to know for sure.

Expecting the Storm to put 40+ on us as well so might not be the best week to get a Bronco

MTB mate - Pick on. Garner, Surgess, Finucane, W.Graham, Wright

Anyone cheaper than that I should be considering?

That's an excellent trade imo.

I probably take the punt on W Graham. Tipping Sharks to hit a run of form now theyve found a win.

Surgess is risky, but probably my second pick.

Finucane is reliable but there is a risk that Storm manage his minutes a bit in the lead up to finals.

Garner would be good if there was any certainty around his spot, but Id have to pass, on what we know.

With six weeks left youre looking for guys who can pump out a few big scores. Consistency isnt as important

Yeah, I'm expecting a similar scoreline, which makes it trickier to captain Haas. Big Storm wins aren't always the best thing for Captain Cam either.

So, Cook vs Sharks or Tolo vs Tigers... or POD gambles like Ted vs Titans (Roosters should get a cricket score but who knows if it's Ted/Latrell/Manu who get bulk points) or a sneaky DCE home to the Knights (think he's looking super-sharp and could have one of his huge days).

Gillett and Glenn not training with main group. Gillett done after 30 mins with ongoing lower back issues - source Mark Gottlieb

I'd say job security is the most important given it's his last trade. Garner is great but agree JS could be an issue. Wright same problem, a good chance he ends up at centre given we can't seem to keep any of ours fit. Don't mind W.Graham if fit.

Yeah apparently there was a radio ad about “bring your whistle” I think the CEO is being an idiot with it but I reckon something like that will drive up crowd numbers

The CEO is primarily concerned w revenue. He's not a footy expert. Could be a smart play. (Surely a Mt Smart pun there?)

Garner I was set on keeping when I started with him this season if he played 80 minutes in the back row. He is an amazing backrower and should keep the spot. His concussions are the worry though. He took a knock on the weekend again but managed to stay on the field. If he has another bad HIA, then he be sitting out again.

Thanks MTB, Mulvy and Wolfking - I think Surgess, W.Graham and Garner are my top 3. W.Graham could post some big scores with Xerri next to him and SJ in form. Surgess is the same, if he gets a try he posts a 60+ if no try then he will sit around 35-45. Garner looks to be a consistent 50+ scorer if he keeps the 2RF spot. I am a bit stuck on these three.

All 3 have a lot of risk to them IMO. I actually want to see Surgess play a game and see how he goes. I'm very interested in possibly taking a punt on him but will need to see him get through a full game.

What are pearce owners doing with him ?

Stuck with him.

Hoping against logic that he returns to some form.
