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

Watson
Tino, Crichton, TKO
Fifita, Riki
(C)leary, Fog
Averillo, Niu
Papy, Brimson, Laurie

Brailey, Lam, Hoy, Liddle

Leniu, Uto, Hola, Simonsson

$48k ITB

I am running two Titans, the more obvious ones. Nothing wrong with Fog alongside Cleary and Brimson is a gun FB, so no, I don't think 4 is too many.

Out of the 4 I think Tino has the most risk. (imho), but that risk is not problematic enough to scare me away I would hate to watch him tackle busting his way to 80 and I had Welch instead plodding to 52

Damn Welshy, glad I read this, I 'had' Gosi on my bench, I wondered what the lingering smell was.

I did wonder why a guy priced at 288K and (quoting someone else) is 95% likely to get the edge has been avoided by 97.6% of players

Those numbers will change massively if he's named on TLT. A starting edge forward at 288k is hard to ignore. His scores do stink though. I've only owned him once, think it was his rookie year, got about two or three shit scores before getting injured the prick.

That's very nice secret keeping. Spose could do a text analysis to determine if the same language was used in Kennedy's and the Scout's posts, but that might be just a little bit nerdy.

Well Dom's podcast analysis very closely matched the Lone Scout's team last year...just saying.

Word off a Souths forum is that, that team Souths named earlier on our Instagram was the named team for the season launch tonight that we unveiled so that’s the side:

Knight, Sele and Jed Cartwright all injures:

Rabbitohs  Round 1 team:

1. Latrell Mitchell
2. Alex Johnston
3. Dane Gagai
4. Campbell Graham
5. Josh Mansour
6. Cody Walker
7. Adam Reynolds (C)
8. Thomas Burgess
9. Damien Cook
10. Junior Tatola
11. Jacob Host
12. Jayd’n Su’a
13. Cameron Murray

14. Benji Marshall
15. Mark Nicholls
16. Keaon Koloamatangi
17. Jai Arrow

18. Patrick Mago
19. Jaxson Paulo
20. Tautau Moga
21. Troy Dargan

Hmmmn, that does make sense. Kolo nooooo...

Probably end up starting by week 3 and killing it

Laurie a complete unknown in terms of fantasy potential, Laurie ideal for my 18-21 at base price I’m just expecting a little more from Hoy and a quick cash grab

100% this. Also Hoy will be pushing himself to be first guy picked when someone else breaks in the backline.

I can see at least 40 with kicking, probably wishful thinking and....


I can get rid of that flunky Moylan

Is the thinking that Hoy does the GK whilst he's in the side? Still seems a bit short term for me.

Wonder if the same thing will happen with Davey.

Jai Arrow should get himself nice and cheap to tempt us all.

Lol.. I was thinking of him earlier today as well for some reason

Obviously it will depend on how soon Ponga can come back in, If Hoy goes well and the Knights are doing OK to start, they might not rush Ponga back and risk a recurrence.

I have Laurie in the 21 slot. But TLT will be when I fine tune the backline and will run Laurie if Mbye gets 14, but I am not expecting that.

Had a good chat with Graham, Host, Sauce, Cody and Reynolds. Boys are pumped and none of them on the beers unlike last year.

From a Rabbitohs forum. The guy is very reliable with his info.

No beers = premiership

Why did Jai Arrow leave a place where he owned a position and was easily their future captain for years to come to becoming second fiddle to Murray of all people??

Can’t start with him now. I’m not so sure what’s gonna happen with Gosie and Davey yet either and how that’ll play out. There is talk from Manly fans Schuster could play some second row off the bench as well.

Then you have the Dragons how long does Kerr last on an edge.... it means if you pick Poasa or Alvaro their job security and mins could change week to week.

Maybe Waddell is a good option, but then playing RFM for them to me on an edge when he’s back makes more sense. I can see the Dogs chopping and changing as well....

It makes it a bit hard to pick fantasy players so I think I’m gonna have to take a risk somewhere as will others as well....

Too soon, Rhinoceroo- still too soon.

Once he has match fitness up he may start some games with Tatola to come off the bench.

He’s had an injury disrupted pre season so is being eased in.

Interestingly enough, tom dearden will be playing with karmichael hunt tomorrow

I dont have Tino in my team, but dont see him as a risk. Has to be at least 5 points under-priced.

Arrow I think his partner works a lot in Sydney so it suited him to move down here. Also coming to the Pride of the League who are more of a powerhouse club than the Titans helped lure him down as well as Bennett and Demetriou of course. Arrow is close to both these guys.
