NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 14 - Game Day!

Luai or Walters for my starting 17?

https://www.nrl.com/news/2020/03/12/seibold-backs-isaako-at-no.1-and-farnworth-on-bench/

While Isaako has played most of his NRL career on the wing he did have a full season at No.1 in 2017 for the Souths-Logan Magpies, the same season he was Intrust Super Cup fullback of the year.

"How much time he plays and what position he plays will be guided by where the game takes us but Herbie gives us great utility value off the bench." - Seibold re Herbie

Nothing on whether Isaako gets GK

Might put the C on Coronavirus this weekend, he looks unstoppable

I'm convinced within a month games will either all be off, or cancelled in certain parts of the country. Its just a matter of time...

hey, perhaps the travel issue will come full circle and all you buggers will have to play your games in NZ, rather than the Warriors travelling each week - ITS OUR YEAR!!

If this was to happen, how good would it be be for you guys, you might even finish 14th or 15th!

Stuck on this one... starting CTR and last reserve

A) Watkins/Shibasaki + Levi + Su'A/B Brailey
B) Lomax + Su'A + B Brailey

Which Fijian winger had a defence against a tripping charge or something a few years ago where it was they didn’t know it was illegal?

It sounds dumb but not knowing all the rules isn’t really a problem if you’re not in the spine. He played the other rugby, he gets the basic idea. He’ll know to play the ball and find someone to kick on the last. Play to the whistle for the rest. Nobody is going to be asking him to determine a differential penalty

All the great fantasy players have alphanumeric monikers: CP13, PG13, CS9....COVID19

Islanders only know 2 rules or ways to play = smash & bash so run hard & hit hard.

Bring on tonight (Well until the season gets cancelled)

Wow, do you have a team made up of reserve grade players? Impressive to fit that back 3 and Haas

Probably something like this

Friend
Haas Carrigan
Williams Leilua Stimson
JMK Mann
Watkins Shibasaki
Tedesco Ponga Papenhuyzen

Koro
Brailey
Levi
Walters

4 x cheapie

If he starts I'll swap JTB out for him. But unknown warriors forwards never go that well.

John Palavi warns never again

Dragons, Tigers and Warriors to make the top 4 if we end up with a shortened comp

Wow! Must be thin in the halves and centres! I think I had 8 hookers at one point, down to two!

Very stuck on these final team decisions

a) Nathan Brown, JTB(NPR) and Kennedy (Upvote)
B) Jake Friend, Kennedy(NPR) and Aekins (Downvote)

In my SC team, which is a wiser choice D Fifita or Kikau?
