I would go Simonsson to Davey and bench Riki. You have Hoy as WFB cover

Only $5K bank

Not owning a Panther swayed me haha! Can’t wait to watch Cleary scores 80s and the Cats putting up 40 pointers with Leniu scoring 20s now

Fortunately own Cleary, so hoping he provides a short ball to Leniu close to the line for a 2 TB, 1 LB Try haha

Are you guys really playing Leniu though?

I agree an exciting prospect and good watch, but he’s still a 35min bench/impact forward. No place in fantasy 17s for that malarkey surely

Think Wolfy got the most of it, low banks, no Crichton or mid cover or not trusting Stefano and Needing a cheap mid.

Did score a 40 in low minutes so scoring is there, plus kid looks special. Good to watch at least and potential to throw together a big outing

Losing Crichton and Lodge with limited coverage I don't have much choice. Expecting a 30 from him with anything else being a bonus

Is also a fantastic real life player. Late footwork to hit inside shoulders, lands on his front and it's shocking how many big attacking plays come directly off the back of his quick play the ball. Similar kind of player to Mofo if he gets the minutes

One of the problems is that none of the things you have described give fantasy points.
I just have concerns about minutes. I think Eisenhuth more likely to get big minutes from bench players and Leniu will be used more for impact. He'll get a great PPM but not sure if his points will be enough.

Great for team performance which should give solid job security but will probably be a slow burn in terms of fantasy points. Leniu will jump both Eisenhuth and Leota in the pecking order this year, it's only a matter of time

It was like the Asiata injury when they named every player other than him

Speaking of Asiata he will probably score well in the next two weeks with Lodge out. Should be the main bench man holding the middle together. That will continue for a few more weeks when Pangai gets man of the match tonight + a 4 week suspension for a late hit.

Unrelated, Kevy said Asiata will be wearing the Brent Tate neck brace in games from now on. Should help the comms figure out who he is.

Stefano assessment. He's a busy player in defense but he looks like he hasn't realised his size yet (understandable given his age). Seems to coast a little through the middle. Will be a gun in 12 months. Probably unlucky to be down for 3 MT's, I only saw two, the second one was the head knock which he went off. Doubt he's worth bringing in, but may still do it because I'm somewhat forced to.

Well considering 55 has a greater numerical value than 51 one would certainly hope it looks better.

precursor wrote:Anyone tempted to punt on Corey Jensen? Lolo out could be a good thing for his minutes? Bit more pricey than a Leniu or Alvaro though.  

I am not a fan of Alvaro and Leniu is one of my trade ins... At the moment I have gone Jensen as my other. Reports are the Lolo spends no more than 4 weeks out... to me that signs like 4 is absolutely premium... BE is low already so hoping he can keep going 40+ for a few weeks then ride a few more scores off the bench. Feel the upside is greater than an Alvaro and I am worried about LAMs minutes

Curtis Sironen out for 4 to 6 weeks with a knee injury. Gosi to start


Sucks for siro, but also, this cracks me up that Gosi survives.

Holy shit hahaha I don't even know what to make of this as a Gosi owner. Does this make Davey a must have? Can still flick Gos -> Davey

I'm fairly certain the Hutchinson will play utility role as middle forward/hooker/backs well before Walker. Hutchinson has been training in that role for 2 years trying to replicate Tyrone May

I hope not off field stuff though!

My word that Manly side is going to get towelled. Siro big part of that already depleted Manly team. Gosi for 29

Haha, are you kidding me?! Looks like I might be flicking Croker instead. In fact might even bank one trade. He'll probably score 18 fantasy points in 60 minutes though.

*Adjusts margin in tipping.

Davey and Gosi should play close to 80 as im not sure who else manly have. Haumole is injured.

That is likely good news for Daveys scoring. Probably outscores Gosi by 15 to 20 lol.

Wonder who switches to right edge?

I might wait a week

Does the handicap slider go that far?

Davey should get 80 minutes.

They don't seem to have another 2RF in the 21. Wonder if they will get permission to elevate Haumole.
