NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 10

Nice dart out of DH by Brailey

Whinger of the year is definitely Loomer

This weekend's trials have not inspired confidence in the playability of any Min price players.

Musgrove/JTB might be good as 18-21 but that's about as far as it goes

What did I do to deserve that? Did Rabbit hack your account?

From what I've read, he is considered the future. How long before that happens is another question.

On Manly, is Metcalf considered a fullback or half these days. He'll play first grade at some point this year, imo

It's not being televised. Stream only

I’m planning on making a play for that once the season gets going. My knights were the best team in the comp last year but the refs hate us and the comp is rigged

Impressive ball runner Jack Williams

Jack Williams oh my he's quick

Was it that good, or just a really poor missed tackle from Levi?

Q1

Taupau vs Fifita - Marty looks the fitter man. Considering he’s had the knee clean out, he looks his same old self fifita with that hobble in his step. That said, great as always in attack, finding and looking for an offload. Most disappointing for me in scouting him is no 3rd man flop tackles! Maybe just due to being warm and a trial. No knock on Taupau but not really explosive either

Levi vs Brailey - Brailey looks the more composed and controlled and very solid in defence too. He’s impressed when I had little to no expectations from him. Unfortunately for him, Tracey is going OK, and playing himself into a Jersey 14. Levi looks the more dangerous and central to everything, but hit weaker defensively.

Metcalf vs Kennedy - these boys both look solid. Look to them to get their chance this season with injuries

Outside backs - Katoa looks clearly the one to make something happen

Williams - won’t compare him to Keppie as haven’t really noticed the latter doing anything. Jack Williams is good for early set hit up, late set line break and in tackles. All action and looks an absolute steal

Edge - Nikora energetic as usual but Wade Graham by a country mile best backrower on the field. Just looks a different class even though not overly involved. Should make money at his 2020 price.

Danny Levi try! Beautiful

Wade a decent pod to start with imo

I think Frizell is a better option for 2k more

I’m torn with my second half. I’ve got Moses and Hughes at the moment. Tossing up Taylor, Brimson or even cheaper with Drinkwater. That would leave money to upgrade one centre position, one WFB position, or 4th bench spot

Toby Rudolph having a blinder

That brings me to my next question Brimson (upvote) or Drinkwater (downvote)?

Streaming has dropped out for me now, bugger!

Geez Rudolf is killing it what a beast!

Keppie been disappointing in defence.

I'd go BrimGUN, he's proven that he can score well at FB, even in a shit team, while Drinky's fantasy output at 5/8 is an unknown. His stats at FB weren't great either.
