NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 17 - Crack'a'Corona Sunday

One of the scenarios I foresee is some clubs folding or merging.
12 team comp is a real possibility out of this though I really, really, really hope it doesn't come to that :/

Doubt many clubs could absorb more than a couple weeks of delay.

Doueihi 6, MCK centre would make sense hey

Unlikely walters has the fitness for 80.

Do players see lock as a 'better' position than edge back row? Or is that just a fantasy projection

Some players have a personal preference, I am not sure what Murray's personal views are but he is a good lock

Looks like this year was a midrange minefield
Wonder how the last few go today

I would they get paid more at lock.

I wouldn't have thought so. Someone like Fifita is more valuable than pretty much any forward in the game not called Taumalolo. A lot of the locks in the comp are middling players or extra FRFs

Actually scratch that Musgrove switch for Walters. Ambiguous wording in Maguire article just means starting in the 17

I dunno what I’ll do with Knight, it wasn’t a disaster at all by any means but not quite what we hoped for. I thought he would get 52-55mins.

I think I’ll hold Knight another week

How good is this Kerr guy?

And what are we expecting from him when he returns? I have him at 17 atm. Wondering if there are better options around. Have Musgrove off the cows that are left to play

Didn't see much reaction about Aekins score.

Was he as bad in real life as his fantasy score suggests?

45 is solid, I wouldn't be trading him unless there is a guy you simply must have to replace him.

For me I have Stimson and Burns on the block.. Thinking of dumping Stimson for Katoa (think he'll do really well for us this season as an attacking second rower, and the spot is up for grabs), and possibly Burns for Isaako.. Thought he looked really good on Friday, and GK is a handy 6-10 points a game on top.

Sloppy game with 28 errors between the teams. Not much time for either team to find their groove

Which Katoa, the Warriors Katoa?

Whose starting spot does he take?

Anyone thinking of moving on Jack Williams?

I think I’ll hold still.

Not really my type so you go for it, buddy.

Yeah Warriors Katoa. Blair was playing prop/lock most of yesterdays game, moved in when he came on. Could keep happening, saves an interchange. Don't think Katoa would be able play 80 mins.. Yet.

Jack Williams had a pretty big game, 60 mins for 36 tackles and 127m. Just lost too many points with MT's and Errors (6 No). Just needs to drop half of those and add a TB or 2 to be a 45-50 point player. You got to keep him for now.

Lower grades will be impacted too with the new restrictions.

Yeah, they wont be staying for more than a week. Family is quite big for the Warriors, and as we have quite a few Polynesian players, it's even bigger.

Nrl conference this morning (5 hours ago) said all those teams and games are put on hold. It's the NRL team only right now, not the lower grades.

NRL is finished now. Warriors can't play.

Do you want to expand upon that one?
