Fuck the Chinese government.

Will be awesome to ave the footy back hopefully sometime in June.

I must say I have missed fantasy as well but my side will no doubt like many have quite a number of issues that can’t be fixed in 1 week alone.....

Yeah the news on Watkins really screwed me. Will mean I need to replace both Kennedy and Watkins this round, but also need to get Grant in.

At least my only other real players needing attention should be Musgrove and probably Walters.

How is everyone else looking?

I'm kind of hoping for a few more fires to put out, burning brighter than Kennedy. Of course the fewer fires the better, but you'd have to assume Moylan gets injured soon enough and then Kennedy becomes relevant again. He's not really the kind of player you'd trade out and back in again, so it'd be kinda nice to hold onto him if possible.

Oh shit, just looked at my team for the first time since shutdown, to answer your question, and noticed that if Kennedy doesn't play I'm going to need a good replacement WFB option... unless I put Williame in there.

Yeah I am looking at bringing Brimson in for him.

Nice swap, though not sure I could afford that one.

I’ll just go back into my side now and tell you my issues, hold on a moment..........

Knight
Williams
Watkins

Potentially Walters, Katoa and JTB as well.

At this stage I have 74k spare and 32 trades.

Also Carrigan could soon be an issue with Lodge, Ofa and Glenn back.

What happens with Aubusson is worrying me too!

Just looks like probs too many fires to put out for me.......


If Magoulias got the starting lock role that’d really help me.



I know Bradman Best doesn’t look like a very attractive choice but it may be worth the punt of Watkins to Best!

What is wrong with Knight?

Also will Croft be back from his injury, assuming we start whenever it is slated for?

Yeah easily it was like a 2 week injury

The way things are going De Belin will be back

rugbyleagueproject.org has all super league games. Depending on timeframe, the specific websites for reserve grade (qrl.com.au & nswrl.com.au) might have what you’re looking for re reserve grade

You can also switch tabs on nrl stat page to get reserve grade stats like nrl (point scorers, try scorers etc) back to 2014

Excellent, thanks mate. Will look into these now. If anyone on here is interested in getting involved feel free to DM me.
Just over 5 weeks to go!!

He’s only getting like 40mins a week and not scoring too well.

He’s not getting the 55mins I thought he’d get.

The money tied up in him is valueable, especially for myself when I need a Cleary or Tolo. If he was 100K cheaper I reckon you can ride him out. Looked good in the first game but a bit underwhelming in the second. He was my target to trade but once/if we kick off again, there's not reason to give him one more week if need be. Might have to now with Watkins out.

If Pay goes with Wakeham as his dominant hlf meaning Wakeham dominates km's then I'll bring him in for Watkins even though it's not a straight positional switch. It means I'll have to play Wiliame in the ctrs though.

I already have Wakeham, I think Foran coming back in round 3 or 4 will be better for his kicking meters than either Lewis or Cogger next to him.

The problem with Foran is he'll last 2-3 weeks max before he breaks down again. It was noticeable that when Lewis got dragged at half time in round 2 & Wakeham became the main half the Bulldogs & Wakeham played better with Lewis not on the field.

I guess it’ll also depend on how many trades we are given.

Watkins and Williams are the more pressing issues for me and then I’ll worry about Knight.

I’m hoping Aubbo still gets 80 with Crichton playing a middle bench rotation role.

I don't see the NRL playing a 25 round season and if they do it will mean no byes, no split rounds. Either way a total reboot of the fantasy season will be required.
