NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 10

Hall of fame for players I missed includes Gurgess 2013(later traded in at peak), Ben Hunt 2014, Coen Hess 2017, Kikau 2018 and Bateman 2019(traded in the week he got injured)

Which player is likely to make the list this year?

Papenhuyzen and Leilua are pretty good for 'unsustainable' scoring

I've got them both in my squad at the moment, so hopefully they keep up the unsustainable.

Papenhuyzen is a very good shout though as I don't believe in him averaging above 45

Uhg, I just got PTSD from the Hunt 2014 remark. I was just too stubborn to admit my mistake and went the whole season without. So painful to watch bottom dollar players smash it every week when in everybodies team but yours. It’s a serious health concern!

Edit: I just looked it up- he averaged 57.8 that year. I still feel the butthurt 6 years later.

Who is GK then?

Whichever one of those two is playing.. I'd say would be the GK

That was Bird for me last season

2014 was my first fantasy year.  i remember picking Hunt up for like 294K or something and he then went bananas.  Never really seen that happen again since in my fantasy career hahaha.

2012 was my first fantasy (dreamteam) year. Schoolmates wanted to fill their league, so asked me to join. I was quite new the country as well and had no idea what nrl even was. Used autofill to make my team. Remember getting 2 x Reynolds who were rookies that yr and went on to make a lot of money. Ended up winning the school league and a overall rank in the 400s. Made my trades mostly from stats centre, looking at averages, points/$ etc.

Never ever seen that happen again since in my fantasy career either (rank wise) hahaha. Even after doing research before making my teams.

Rank the best 17th man out of this lot (All positions are covered on 14-21 except CTR):
Tapine, Carty, Aubbs , Williams, Horsey, Stimson, Su'a, Walters.

Only the inclusion of Walters as it would allow an upgrade to the CTR/WFB.

After serving so well as 18 last year he’s definitely my favourite first 17 player this year before a team has so much been listed

2012 was my first year as well and despite reading the sportal forums i somehow missed j reynolds.

I missed SST in his debut year when he was available at wfb.. just had no idea who he was. Guess i drank alot more than i researched back then

Didnt watch games as closely back then aside from Broncos.. how times/fantasy has changed things.

I reckon Papy goes GUN, his metres are RTS esque, he’s always pushing 200+, which is an amazing base for a WFB. We know he has the sneaky TB ability. 48+ is my season average

I went against the grain in my first year and put a pure CTR in the CTR. Picked Inglis as one of the only players I properly knew back when. Went really well, then I started picked up the bits off the big time guys at sportal and slowly built a decent league and fantasy understanding

Yeah fantasy got me into watching nrl. Now I am an avid fan.

Williams, Walters, Stimson (assuming starting), Cartwright, Su'A, Tapine, Horse. Aubo I would only look at to start in CTR in my side since he'll fill a tough position for 5-6 weeks before Morris comes over then he's probably a sell

I don’t get this Magoulias love this season. Bloke’s almost certainly a 20-25min benchy (tops).

Brailey for 9
Williams for 13

As nailed as that comes. What am I missing?

My biggest miss in debut year was rookie Shaun Fensom. Prices didn't change for 3 weeks and I managed to miss a base price 60 average gun

Sutton out round 1 due to suspension https://www.nrl.com/news/2020/03/02/sutton-facing-ban-over-shoulder-charge/

Think he’s just the best cheapie 2RF for 18-21 spot mate

Williams or Tapine?

Hi everyone! Look forward to another year of NRLF here on the forums

I also don't like him as a pick.

Sharks pack probably lines up like this with big minutes going to the starters + Hamlin-Uele

8.Woods
9.Brailey
10.Fifita
11.Nikora
12.Graham
13.Williams
14.Magoulias/Tracey
15.Hamlin-Uele
16.Rudolph
17.Bukuya/Sorensen/Hunt

Rudolph, Hunt and Tracey all looked better than Magoulias in the trial
