NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 1 - Game on Mole

Can't leave Watson out at that price, kid has averaged close to 40 in 40 minute interchange stints.

If he gets longer or starts he's a gun

I tend to not get too excited at the start of a season, especially being a Warriors fan but it's hard not like what they have done with the signings.

If BMM can get fit he can be an absolute weapon this year, we should get some good go forward with that monster pack, anyone taken a stab at the warriors pack rotation?

I really like CHT this year behind that monster pack providing plenty of go forward plus he's gk

He's priced on a 5 game season that included 2 injury scores.

If he's at all fit its great value.

Given most will start with Liddle and Trbo, it could be a stressful first few rounds hoping noone gets injured

Yea CHT is definitely on the radar behind a potentially emerging pack for me. Likely an early season second half with someone like Moses

For sure, including all the injuries from players who have barely missed a game in 4 years to go along with the early season shit pick carnage haha! Love it

AFB
Egan
LAM
Katoa
Tohu
Tevaga

Lawton
Evans
BMM
Sironen/JTB/Afoa/Murchie

Lot of depth. Probably Siro for the last bench spot because he could cover half/centre for injuries as well as spell Jazz with Tohu switching to lock. Still a weak spot at hooker but imagine it with BSmith there.

India did it having to play 20 players as well which is pretty unheard of for a test series these days.

What they did today is pretty much unheard of!

I know how effective Tevaga is off the bench or at lock but I'd love to see Egan shunted and play Jazz there, if only to get better players on the park, Egan is such a dud. Offers nothing

Has the BSmith sweepstakes been decided?

Brooks could be a good option too!

Leeson Ah Mau would be pretty cheap you’d think!

I won’t be starting with Egan if Lawton is on the bench Egan is a trap!

That win and the series win by India was one of the greatest things in sport I have witnessed

Yeah, it's possible he'll be on the bench but even then at 310k he's set to be a no-brainer. Can see people having a lot of players round the 300 mark like LAM/CHN/Watson/Averillo/Liddle/Alvaro/Hetho/Leniu rather than complete basement rookies.

nrl casualty ward has Lawton achilles, indefinite...so he may not start the season

I saw someone mention way earlier about increased trades? What are the chances of this because I’m still considering playing SC/VDST instead this year but if they increase the trades it might sway me

LAM is a plodder who was injured last season basically for the whole season so it's going to take him a while to get used to the intensity of the game.

Egan is an absolute cabbage

i'd put it down to injury last year and being dragged down by Warriors ethos. Guy was a gun, hopefully with additional talent he will revert back to norm. Cracking player on his day, no plodder

Is liddle an option with Grant now back at storm. His injury background is a worry, plus who are the 9 options now at tigers. Also Josh Reynolds has left for hull so this is one less option.
