NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 2

Fifita, Haas, Lodge are probably the Broncos 3 best players and Seibold will want them on the field for as long as possible. Outside the regular 80 minute players (backs), these 3 should be seeing the most minutes with Haas and Fifita probably as close to 80 as possible.

Wouldnt forget Pangai.. averaged 60 mins last year and is in the leadership group this season. I don't think he will be scaled back too much if at all.

People avoiding Brimson because he plays for the Titans, ignores the fact that his current average of 40* at fullback comes completely from games where he played for the Titans. His tiop 2 scores came against Melbourne and Manly

*45 if you ignore games where he didn't get 80 minutes


Tedesco was also the top fullback in fantasy well before he left the Tigers, who are hardly world beaters

Assuming he locks down fullback, which seems a good bet, Brimson seems hard to ignore

Yes forgot Pangai. Anyways, those 4 are probably their best players. I would chuck Isaako and Croft in that group also; however, they already play 80 minutes.

Isaako - I believe has the potential to be a great fullback, maybe not quite Tedesco potential but probably 45 avg potential. He is definitely a fullback over all else!

Croft - Broncos fits his mold. He needs to run the team. He mainly shone at the Storm when Smith and Munster were on Origin duty. He is in the leadership group and will hold a lot of the reigns here! I am expecting a big year from Croft and the Broncos.

If Fantasy doesn't open today are we all thinking "Week after Australia Day" now means Feb 3rd?

OR

FailHub are just lazy/fixing an issue and will be released later this week.

If they're just fixing an issue, the game will never open

Indigenous and Maori squads for All Stars look awesome. Hopefully there arent too many withdrawals.

I have a first dratt forming... No Haas or Cook at the moment hmmmm

It'll be interesting how the cookie cutter team pops out. I'm still very big on the cc as a start point to maximise the chances of a strong season. There are a fair few around here that I'd back to make a few % better decisions anyway... just need a little luck as well

Guys I use IPAD, on google and google chrome last season it kept stuffing up and not letting me make trades on Fantasy site, so I got Fantasy App and that comes up so small couldn’t use it could barely see it so then I tried Puffin browser and that worked but I can no longer use that for some stupid reason.

Anyone know what else I can do or another browser etc.... for IPAD which works for Fantasy?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers!

Vox pop:

How many players over 700k do you have? I've currently got 4. Cook, Fifita, Brown, Moses.

No Haas or Cook?!
You don't have top 10 aspirations this season?

I have just 1 which is Haas but he's like 3 people.

Been there, done that

Haha, of course. Just have a different feel at this point. Love the look of a gun halves combo and some other options. No pressure this year

Am I over thinking it- or does it make sense to start with 1 or 2 origin players max, or maybe none, and not pick up any untilll after origin? I dropped so much in the origin period last year and carrying them is just painful as is trading them out and back in and buying trades. Only thing I haven’t tried is avoiding origin players altogether-
This year might be the year! So hard not to pick hass and cleary though

I think it's open lads

Fantasy is open on Android app

I'm in!

Looks like it for me.

Immediately realised there is no benefit to it actually being open..

I just had an an amazing idea:
What if I created lanyards and badges that said “I haven’t watched the game yet” so if you were planning on watching a replay or recording of the game people would know not to tell you who won
