NRL Fantasy 2021 - In my opinion, this is part 8

Turpin
AChricton, Watson, BSmith
DFifita, Riki
Cleary, Brooks
Averillo, Roberts
Tedesco, Isaako, Hoy

Welch, JBrailey, ADavey, Liddle

Laurie, Leniu, Curran, Croker

Ive been toying with the same back 3. I really wanted RTS but he'll prob end up being my 22nd player that I couldnt fit in.

thumbs down - brandon smith

torn on this one see smith making some decent price rises fast and could end at quite a good price for when he needs to be traded out and help with coming out the blocks with some decent scores but idk if i want to burn that trade if tino becomes a keeper or performs similar

I'm personally going smith as a believe he has more chance to pump out an 80 plus to get the cash going. Will hopefully be my stepping stone to Hass when his back. Just trying to figure out who will be my stepping stone to ponga

To be honest, if I was confident of him starting in 2nd row all season, or even for a decent stretch, I'd probably consider him.

He's got some crazy scores like the time he missed 12 tackles, or a few where he got moved to the backline. But should be able to average 50 when priced at 38.
It's just job security that worries me

I remember seeing reports that Broncos were keen to sign him for next year. If he does sign elsewhere during the year could also affect his starting spot.

I had Capewell in for a little bit but I can see shake ups. I think Martin looked better there anyway

Yeah chris garry confirmed last week negotiations still ongoing. Basically capewell (well, his manager) wants 600+, broncos only want to offer around 500 a year

500 is a good offer imo.

MS hot take is that Brenko Lee doesn’t play round one AND Ierimia still doesn’t get the wing spot.

Reimis centre, Jennings wing

Also think there might be a hooker on the bench to spell Brandon. Only other one in the top 30 that looks any good is Tyson Smoothy

Might be a Tino vs Welch battle brewing

There might be a retired hooker that they could sign on a short term contract. I think he knows their set plays

Aloiai was saying Saab is by far fastest at Manly and could be the fastest in the NRL

They’ve got a young winger called Koula who does the 100 in 10.58.
If Saab is quicker than that I’ll be impressed.

I know right? I have three theories. Someone fat thumbed it. Someone saw the quoted text about thumbs up, thumbs down and got confused. I also dropped my mouse on the floor around the same time, probably unrelated.

Its an outlier. The titans had their biggest win of the season. Unlikely for that to continue in 2021

Why you talk about your team like dis?
