NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 22 - I don't cope well without Capewell

A bit of a mixed round so far I’m 7/387 C played.

Teddy 52, Schuster 63, L. Croker 29 (not bad at all), Angus C 54 (108), Alvaro 26, Leniu 38 and Macca 71.

Not going to get nearly as much work against that Dogs outfit either

This might be the post that confirms a Turpin to Egan move for me. Get some much needed cash in the bank

Yeah I'm the same. Bank the cash and outside of injury, I think Egan is a much better option

Looks like you will be able to get away with spending very little on halves coming up. Could easily play Schuster and Walker there, spend money everywhere else to have a gun team pretty early

Man what an ugly game. Haven't seen Roosters in that kind of state since their 2016 season. Roosters will need to show some resolve to pull through with all their injuries

I'm a fan of Manu coming into the halves. I think a big mobile, hard-running 6 would be great, and Walker there to direct traffic. They'll still be a competitive team

Walker would score great with Manu next to him

Brutal injuries in the second game last night
Though like many things this tests depth and provides opportunities to others to shine

Woke up to a score of 7/375 so going ok with Bird my lowest scorer at 36
(Smith,SST,Tupouniua,Kenny,Tedesco,Schuster,Bird)

Got captain Brailey, a bunch of cheap hookers , some fill in backs and a milf banner to come
What could possibly go wrong... Regardless doesn't mean much with 5 games still to come

Anyways the joys of fatherhood is being awake at 5.45 on a Saturday, but did get to catch up on the fantasy pages haha

Enjoy the weekend everyone, sunny and looks to be a cracker

Bummer that Latrell's performance didn't translate well into fantasy in that game, he had some great touches, he'll probably get a few points in the updates (A TS maybe? you never know with these stats people, so inconsistent)

Most will be playing spuds at WFB, so a 43 from Latrell could be a big boost (I know someone playing Niu, Simo, Laurie lol)

Wow, sucks for both and the Roosters...

Who takes my 17th man. Averillo, Utoikamanu or Simonsson?

Utaikamanu but Simo could jag a try this week

7/417(c) - Angus captain bit meh but to be expected when his name isn't Cleary or Haas (Macca VC as well )

Nice scores elsewhere though with Schuster, Macca & SST. Alvaro bit underwhelming but should be back to 18th man for me all going well

I find your lack of faith disturbing @rapture_NRL How is Simo going to get a try when it will be 54 - nil to the Warriors!

Lets Gone Warriors!!!

4/198 with 1 CTR played so pretty happy so far.

The regret of not grabbing Schuster is starting to set in this morning.

After losing a couple in training this week I told my boys to do their bit and aim for a 50average to keep in touch with the table leaders. They’ve stepped up so far currently tracking at a lovely 300/6

Papa don’t let teams get 9 unanswered tries.

It will be a good game, I’m taking the 8 year old out. I think the availability of hot chips is a definite benefit in his eyes.

I’m 6/319 (c)

I had Welch and Lam but thankfully had Schuster in the 17.

Lol by a length .... Are you talking NRL or a local league team named the Panthers?

If you are talking NRL, they have played two genuine bottom 4 teams in the Bulldogs and the Cowboys, and won by a margin of 2 points against Melbourne with a try in the dying stages of the match and a pretty dodgy penalty decision going for them in final minute of that match which avoided a golden point game. Your heads in the sky son!

If this was the basis of how u interpret form half the comp could be declared the winner. Takes some longer to see. Time will tell. Strange post. All the best though.

Tbf they were ahead by the length of the straight last season, until the last game

True that, all we can go in is what's in front of us when we make a call.

RTS for the Hat trick, put the House on it now!

Play Roberts or take Lam 30?
