NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 62 - Captain Grant hype-train edition

706/11(c) . Koro, Luai, Crichton, Cleary, T-Molo & RTS today. (First time in a few weeks ive had more then just the one player playing on sunday, Thanks largely to the Panthers i guess)

Fermor is most probably benched next week hey ? Given Holbrook loves Hipgrave.

Rookie error not checking team before game 1 lockout, forgot to switch Havili and Brailey on my bench, Now I’m hoping Brailey gets more than 30 with Connor Tracey on Sharks bench

bit below par for me, 667/11(c) with cleary yeo koro taumalolo rts to come, plus im in the enviable position of taking Fogartys score or playing HTF

Man selling Crichton a few weeks ago was a real dud move. My WFB line-up is stacked and set, CTR's well I have one competent one at least but I see a lot of people above me playing him and he's actually become a worry now.

Hopeful of a big game from what appears to be a POD these days in Katoa !

801 with Koro, Lolo, RTS and Katoa to come !!

Hard to say but at least it gives you something to look forward to at 4pm Tuesday. Fermor is awful in defence but has some attacking spark. Hipgrave misses tackles and gives away penalties out the wazoo but he's got 'Aggression'.

Guess it's down to what he'd prefer to deal with.

Anybody know how Brown pulled up?

If Proctor is ready to play, yes, it's either the bench or a spot in the CTRs

I’m at 187 atm with 4 to come

Most of you guys worried about your scores have plenty to come so should end up similar

I’m lucky this week as if tevaga was starting I might have moved Lucy on for him already. Swings and roundabouts this game

Norman up to 64! You lil beauty haha

Also obviously I’m as one eyed as it gets for the knights and we are the most hard done by, and handsome team in the comp but bloody hell manly have copped it this year. Not just the odd meaningless mistake but what maybe 3-4 at the business end of games influencing the results

Not a ref bash just sympathy for an opposing team for once. Straight back to hating them again now

Not too sure how he pulled up. You'd have to imagine he could be in some doubt though due to the short turnaround Parra have

This would shit me. He is the only cheap 2RF I am interested in and it could be a blessing that he only played half a game to stall his price rises. I thought I had heard he only had a cork, in which case he should be good moving forward but maybe it was something worse :/

Also anybody going to take a punt on RCG? He is a real hard one to interpret. Extra minutes in the last month for sure, but even playing 55-60mins is putting up gun scores for a good value price

Having a shocker this week...634 13c I have Lolo, Cleary, Koro, & Luai to come.
Copped Niu, Talau, Fog, BSironen, Mofo, ACrichton injury, & Friend.
At least I banked 2 trades this week. They will be very useful next week.

713/11C seems ok with Lolo Yeo Cleary Scritt Koro and ahem Hetherington to come. As usual my Sunday guns probably blank. Hope Hethington jags a 30 odd which he should've done with fair challenge on Titans player last week

Yeah mate Brad Arthur said it was a bad cork and with a short turnaround it could be touch and go so hopefully he's sweet

I'm fully aware there's no vendetta against Manly (at least I hope so), but it seems like we've had our fair share of unlucky calls this year. I've noticed a few other teams have copped it this year as well including Canberra.

I think the overarching problem with all these calls is the lack of strict consistency between decisions. Lots of calls can go one way or another based on differing opinions, which in certain circumstances can create the illusion of a 'biased' ref, even if it isn't the case. It would be nice to have all the refs on the exact same page so these things become less of a common occurrence, as every game nowadays seems to have controversial calls, big or small.
