NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 20 - Who needs halves ???

Lam and Moylan to Sitili and Schuster good trades?

Ash Taylor out for several weeks, Tanah Boyd taking his place. Should be great for Fogarty. Hope they put him next to Fifita now.

Schuster only temporary at 2RF until Sironen returns round 6, am I missing the hype?

I doubt they will change sides, especially due to the fact that Tanah and David already have a really good connection due to playing beside eachother throughout high school.

They make judgement calls based on why a player is playing there. Looks like it's primarily due to injuries so I would guess not for this round. But if he keeps it when players are healthy, then he'll likely pick it up in the next round

3 weeks at 2RF, BE of 5 this week, if he averages 47 like he scored last week he makes a quick $150k in that time. Willing to bet he outshines Gos in that time as well, wouldn't want to miss that train and something happens like Foran getting injured. Could easily be this years Fogarty.

Cash grab? 40s until rd 6 is 120k

Ok thanks m8

He's a naturally good footballer, so I guess people are assuming he'll stick around now that he has a shot, either in another position, or ousting Gosi when Sironen returns.

For those struggling to find a 2nd cash cow, Tanah Boyd is worth looking at, $275k. Hopefully puts Fifita into a few gaps.

Gos was dropped for Davey initially so every chance he keeps a starting role when Siro returns.

not only that, but nobody will get DPP until after round 6

Even if Schuster is still at 2RF after round 6, he may not get DPP then either, if they think he will make way for Sironen when he returns from injury.

Fk me I've got no clue what to do after that TLT now. Still feel like I need to get Cleary in somehow. I could go Tino and Turpin to Schuster and Alvaro which would be fairly risky but would leave me with enough to go munster -> cleary next week. I don't really see another way I can get Cleary in. Need some serious help here boys

Yep this , passes the eye test not sure I want a Manly player in my squad but hoping he goes on given his chance now .

Is Tino to Jackson sideways?


I'm worried about reading too much into that 71. 64 tackles is huge and he won't get that every week. Panthers dominated possession 59-41 in horrible weather. A perfect storm for Jackson to rack up the tackles, but can he keep that up?

Don't expect 70s every week, but still priced at 44 not crazy to think he could elevate to 55?

I’ve got Turpin on my bench, and a few other hookers already but I need a bit of Edge depth. After going Davey to Schuster I have enough for Turpin to Jackson. Certainly tempting with Jackson having good start, playing 80, a low BE and seeming to make more tackles now that he’s in the middle. I imagine he’ll make a similar amount of tackles to Turpin each week but get a few more run metres. Thoughts?

If Jacksons 50 was a 45 would everyone be jostling for a piece ?

Care more about 74 and 80 minutes than the scores.
He is their captain, without him on the field, what leadership do they have?

2k off Averillo to Schuster is really annoying.

I don't rate him as a footballer and it annoys me that I put him in my side.

Great point here. Didn't think of this as an option.
