NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 82 - TPJ's punishment not getting sacked

Might be a handy sideways trade for a H2H GF or a 'roll of the dice' rank improvement move

If you think Brenko can hold his spot for 4 weeks he's not a bad choice, but he's been a bit in and out of the team this year

I'll be going Hoppa or MBye
If Mbye can stay at fullback for 4 weeks he has a nice base. Othewise go Hopoate, but the dogs are hardly inspiring this year (not that Tigers are much better)

Olam is useless for fantasy unless he's scoring tries, so depends on if you think he can get a few over the last month or not.

thoughts on adam pompey?

Currently have no centres.  I can't believe I'm seriously looking at Parker and playing him as my only centre this week. [Let's me get Haas this week].

Geez that’s a pickle.

Didn't think I'd get to round 17 and be tossing up two Titans: Peachy vs Brimson. Still can't decide.

In isolation it's Brimson, but for team structure it's Peachy + Siro vs Fui + Brimson.

I think the first option is safer but the second has more upside.

1hr until we find out if Randall is cut from the 19 or not.

AOB said in todays presser that crossland is back in, randall is not playing. Crossland was just given a rest last week

Could Peachey's scores/minutes drop when Arrow comes back. He still scores pretty well for a CTR off the bench and Siro has some decent scores in him too. Fui could get shit all off the bench plus Brimson does have a sub 30 score in him like any fullback.

If you feel like rolling the dice then go with Brimson, otherwise safe does it.

Is Brenko’s JS solid?

A guy whose last 4 starts on the wing include a 3, 10 and 13. Not even the recent high of 26 makes me tempted

As solid as anyone who missed round 16, and before that rounds 12 and 13, and before that rounds 7 and 8.

The 3 & 10 are from 2019 & 13 is CTR this year

He seems to be better on the wing, but recent scores are boosted by tries (41 with 1 try, 66 with 2 tries)

You're right. still not good enough to make me want him over someone with a better base.

he's $100k cheaper, so if that lets you do something with another trade then it may be worth it.

personally I am on my last trade, so saving cash means nothing

Milch, if you weren't going to hold your trade, I didn't mind your MBye pick to be honest.

For this week's stats article we look at the Eels & Rabbits coping without Dylan Brown & Latrell, strike centres in the comp & the strength of schedule for the last month:

Also we've made some bug fixes & sorted some data issues for our data hub. Includes an odds checker style try scorer comparison tool (for ATS & FTS) and info for draftstars as well as radar charts to play around with:

Literally launched yesterday so very much open to feedback on here or via PM!

PS. @rabbits21 - great point re the thumbs up/down thread - I got on there straight away. Also great point re going someone other than cleary/haas if you're desperate and want to do something different. I'll be going McInness. Averages over 70 and theoretically shouldn't let you down. Hoping Cleary has a quiet game as the Panthers dominate the Broncos and he doesn't need to do much kicking or tackling.

What is AOB thinking?? It's clear the Knights have played there best with Mann at 5/8 and a tackle bot at Hooker.

Same for Madge. It's clear that Talau should be starting centre. He's the future of the club and that's his best position. And the Tigers have gone down hill since Liddle started, so he should be dropped and let their best player (Grant) play 80.

And don't get me started on Holbrook. Damn rookie. Not only should Mofo be starting, he clearly has the engine to be playing 70 every week. Make it happen Justin.

I would’ve been more keen if he was still at centre but not now that he’s back on the wing.
