NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 34 - Centre-free discussion zone

StormTrooper96 wrote:Adam O'Brien is "quietly confident" Kurt Mann will overcome an ankle issue to take his place at five-eighth, with Tex Hoy to remain on the bench. Lachlan Fitzgibbon (hamstring) is also firming for inclusion after "running at 100 per cent" during the week according to O'Brien. A final call on both players will be made after Friday's captain's run.

Good stuff. Now a 60 odd score from the Mann would be nice.

Lomax has to go (or Drinkwater) if I am to get Cleary next week. Lomax has to go if I want Teddy next week. I have the option to do nothing and get nobody in.

Yeah I guess. I think wait this week out, if Lomax is still hitting 40's in a losing side he is a definite keep and possible CTR keeper all year... If Drinkwater guns it up I would say also keep and ride a few more cash jumps?? It's a hard one... Being fantasy though youll probably get an injury or something somewhere else and WFB will be the last of your worries.

Manly hooker Danny Levi faces the prospect of a one-match suspension for an incident in the closing stages of Thursday night's win over Brisbane at Gosford.

He will be banned one match if he unsuccessfully challenges the charge at the judiciary but can avoid suspension if he enters an early guilty plea.

Tyrone Roberts also out again with ankle injury according to NRL late mail

Bit annoying as buying Fogarty and wanted to make sure he doesn't lose his spot when Tyrone Roberts comes back

Few interesting things from Souths training off a Bunnies forum. Could be a big one for Murray coming up.

Roberts training with the reserves, whilst Burns training at left centre. Major focus on him passing to AJ.

Huge focus on going through the centre in all attacking drills. AD spending loads of time with Cook in particular.

They’ve run a single play about 10 times on the attacking line where Murray cuts back behind the ruck on a short pass from Cook and has scored under the posts just about every time. Looks a decent bet for the punters - Murray anytime try scorer.

Gagai is getting hammered with training under the high ball in both attack and defence. He’s dropped about half, his shoulders have slumped, he looks sad to be honest.

Reynolds seems so much more comfortable being able to defer to Cody who is by far the loudest voice out there. Reynolds has been practicing his short kicking game a lot!

It’s wet and greasy, heard AD scream multiple times “these are the conditions we play in tomorrow, focus on maintaining possession, strong hands! Strong hands!”

 Wonder what’s happened. He looks to be struggling to keep pace with the drills, training in a yellow vest… perhaps it’s just a lack of fitness, but he’s definitely looking Le he’s out and burns is in.


He’s just left up the tunnel with Wayne. Somethings up with him for sure.

I’ll watch from in bed tomorrow…

Shame you miss out on the game, Rabbits, hope you feel better, and hope your dad has fun.

Corey Horsburgh is also out for @RaidersCanberra with gastro. Ryan Sutton into the starting side and NRL dispensation for development player Kai O'Donnell to come onto the bench

Chuck Lolo in at 2rf... he is playing tonight. Should've moved Carrigan to FRF but thats all good. Move Katoa to bench and sell Brailey to a cow like HTF/Fogarty and Aubbs to someone like Moses/Teddy/Ponga/Cook/Twal
Full strength team would be
Koro
Haas Carrigan
Lolo Leliua Katoa
Cleary Croft
Best Capewell
Drinkwater Papy Lomax

Friend Grant Rudolf Paix

Luai wiliame HTF/Fogarty and Moses/Teddy/Ponga/Cook/Twal

then next week you move on Croft and Wiliame for another cow and gun?? and you should have a pretty strong team.

Possibly not a factor for a lot on either, but one of the other issue swith Trbos scoring is that he is killing it in SuperCoach

The scoring there just seems to favour him a lot more. He scored 69 last night in SC, just 6 behind Haas, and 9 more than Carrigan.
Much more desirable and for those that play both its easy to get tempted

Late mail says Horsburgh will not play as he's crook with gastro with Ryan Sutton coming into the squad.

That's going to throw a spanner in the works for a lot of players.

In that Souths round up, apologies if I have missed something obvious, but who is AD?

Both trained freely this morning.
