NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 5

I'm looking closely at Watkins, but seems like he could just hover around that price and score 20-25 each week. Could be good if he's fit and in some form however.

Is he getting chucked into auto-fill teams or something?

He is going to be very hard to watch as an owner, but is strong defensively so won't rack up too many negatives. In a perfect world he scores an early try, makes 100k and gets moved on

Can't really go wrong with either but RTS doesn't play origin so he'll play an extra 2 games at least

One extra game.

Assuming no restings or injuries and Ponga plays origin:

Ponga 23 games
RTS 24 games.

I kinda get it, but that Brailey adjustment is quite obscene in context.

If he’s not guaranteed close to 80 - i.e. Cam King on the bench - I might actually pass on him.

I think that was the point of the adjustment. Players who were previously an auto pick will now be under consideration meaning more diversity in teams

Currently I have Saab, Musgrove and Kepaoa filling those spots but TLT dependent

Very nice mate. Mine is quite similar although I did forego Brailey and Brimson in order to get Haas

Neither pick fills me with much confidence so there is a chance I go in a similar direction

Thoughts on my side?

TBH I'm not a fan. You can gone without two players I see as among the best value available with Friend and Koroisau and I can't really see where you have spent the money. Having 3 centre options(Lomax, Ramien, Best) in the 17 is an absolute no go with it being the weakest position in fantasy

Great work! Is this possible for players benefiting from the FanHub discount?

Cannot see how Cam King gets a bench spot. Signed purely as depth imo.

Magoulis the most likely to relieve Brailey, if he isnt up to 80 mins

The opposite, it’s players who have got subjective price increase

It’s different!

I think JMK’s only value is as HLF2 don’t like him.
Seems your team has taken multiple hits in order to fit Ramien and while a centre that’s set and forget is reassuring, he’s not worth that team.

Would also suggest to try and finish with a bench of forwards/hookers (again Mann not in that category. Like JMK, his value is at backup half.

With all of the games gun scorers at hooker - Cook, Smith, McInnes... you don’t want to fill the position with qualifying halves

Yeah fair enough. I've done a bit of reshuffling to get Cook in at hooker.

I'm looking for a 2RF for my bench at 541k or less, and I've looked at Brandon Smith. In games over 40 mins, he averages 44.2 (3 tries in 11 games over 40 mins in 2019). Do you think he can get over 40 mins? I think he can, especially if Grant does end up at the Tigers
