NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 87 - Kotoni Staggs is now a half so he'll move a few feet in.

I might just take Herbie's 26.
Averillo will have about 20 points in base stats, but I can't see him getting much extra against the Panthers

On the other hand, you wouldn't see him getting much lower you would think.

Apparently Averillo wasn't doing much running because he had a quad strain, but played through the full 80. Could have gotten over niggle now and get more involved potentially

Don't know how this impacts your decision

Been doing some rough calculations using same starting MN as this year (14528) and discount of 3% for each game below 10 games played

Riki comes out at 373k (priced at 25.7 average). Though no doubt he'll probably get a price bump

I'll try and get time to fill out full watchlist of underpriced players after the round and upload it

With the Cowboys and Broncos seasons done and dusted, some tribute is in order.

My favourite Cowboys game of all-time is the 2005 grand final, where they lost 30-16 to the Tigers. My second favourite Cowboys game is the 2005 qualifying final, where they lost 50-6 to the Tigers. Last night became my third favourite Cowboys game of all-time. Awesome job guys.

My favourite Broncos game of all-time is the 2005 semi final, where they lost 34-6 to the Tigers. Last night became my second favourite Broncos game of all-time. Congrats on the spoon, dickheads

@quicksand fuck, you sound like a bitter old fart. Wouldn't be surprised if you booby trap your front yard because of those damn kids

I'm a little more balanced than you. I have 3 favourites for both teams. You're missing the 2015 grand final on your Broncos best games of all times list.

I know a few people that still haven't gotten over that GF haha.

Paul Green
Michael Morgan

Those guys will never get over it and are still getting paid millions for it.

His shit talking about our shit talking is way shittier than our shit talking.

@Chewie With the Haas captaining has made this competition a little more interesting.. Off my current calculations I have it 464 - 411 going your way. If Yeo/SST/Fogarty go -50 and guys like Api/Twal/Matterson can go +60 with Cotric and Randall going +40 it makes it a very close contest.

The L5 final could be interesting too. Bootlacers captaining Haas and having to run Hammer could make things close if Nofo can get some ball and DCE can beat Haas' score. Only a few player differences after I trade Moses in to cancel him out.

More the merrier mate! Give the rookie (me) more data!

In a similar boat in L12, captain Haas has given me a lifeline. Match-up stands as this:

Cook vs CM9
Haas (114) vs Mofo
Matterson vs Siro
Murray vs Jurbo
Farnworth (26) vs Lomax
Pap vs Peachey
____ (playing 16) vs Fog
DCE vs D(C)E

Tonight will go a long way to deciding it with Cook and Murray on their side and Fog, Mofo, Peachey, Siro on mine.

113/2 (Carrigan, McGuire)

Tonight: (6) Fotuaika, Peachey, Ponga, Sironen, Tedesco, Friend

Tomorrow: (6) RFM, Averillo, Cleary, Luai, Grant, Moses

Sunday: (3c) Papenhuyzen, Tevaga, McInnes (c)

Randall to loop in over Siro if he guns it tonight.

That's great.
I was trying to work out what MN they might run with - this year it seems like it has averaged a shade over 13000, but that's probably irrelevant as last year it averaged under this years starting amount (14528).

I suspect they decided to run off the top average (Haas) set as $999K and worked their way back - (plus the system doesn't seem to handle number formatting very well for when players go over the $1mil).
If 2021 was calculated that way it would be Cleary's 73.7 that has him top price $999K and a MN of about 13550.

That would put Riki at about $353K with that discount (Unless he looks a popular sure thing - in which case he may get the Blayke Brailey tariff).
Interestingly, it would also put Haas at $977K and Taumalolo at $833K - making a similar conundrum to the start of this year.

YEP! Hoping to see a late change to the Knights with Randall pushing Mann to 6... probably won't happen but hoping Randall gets at least 30 minutes.
Praying SST gets another early shower, Titans collapse and Fogarty is quiet tonight.

I think our final will be decided tomorrow with me having Api, Twal, Matterson and Cotric... If these 4 put up some good scores it'll make for an interesting Sunday.

I think Haas is an auto-pick next year. Slap the C on him and leave it their. Fill the rest up with supporting cast (Riki, Paseka, Tino, Fifita, Dearden and co)

Raiders pack may have some nice gems next year? Ryan James, CHN, Hudson Young, Horseburgh
