Fantasy mirrors performance. If he is playing 60 minutes and scoring 70+ his on field performances can't be ignored.

Well I guess we won't be seeing Grant and Cook in Origin this year based on their averages
Looks like the hookers will be Mahoney and JBrailey

Better call the chad and let him know he is partnering Cleary this year
That is if he isn't dropped from the sharks in the next week or 2

Of course I am. Cleary is the best half in the game and his fantasy scores reflect that, same with Fifita on the edge. If Haas is beasting in limited minutes, he is making lots of tackles, not missing tackles and getting lots of run meters.

Chad Townsend for his NSW debut incoming !

How close is Chad Townsend to origin selection?

I wish Freddy’s selections reflected Fantasy because then I’d put Wighton in my CTR and not have to deal with Roberts

Yeah with all those kick meters that Haas gets, like Chad, of course that is a like for like comparison.

Lucky DCE had that blinder on the weekend, Milford was about to take his spot at halfback for QLD!

Well done mate I knew it wouldn’t be long til you went flying past me. You got Peachey too didn’t ya? Bastard

It is a like for like comparison, he is fantasy gold but close to being dropped IRL
Same with Milford, Brooks to name but a few

I think people are hugely optimistic about Haas not playing origin. I would still be targeting him but he would not figure into my bye coverage plans

Saw a post the other day about the guys in front of him and there was quite a few. Plus his little incident with the cops won't do him any favours with selectors.

If Haas is showing that in limited minutes he is going to take at least 1 run every set, if not 2 and tackle 2 or 3 times most sets, then he plays Origin, due to demonstrating his worth on the field. As a side effect of that great on field performance, he also gets strong fantasy scores. No point being silly about it.

I’m likely to have to play Alvaro and Uto in my 17 next week but it is what it is. Myself missing out on someone like Papali’i hurts but I couldn’t get him in as I had other issues 2-3 weeks ago.

Looks like Riki might be close to peaking soon.

Liddle getting 80mins was very positive.

No idea if I’ll trade next week yet but I’d rather not. I’d love to bank 2 again like I did this week. Will wait and see after lockout then re assess.

Do we think Laurie to a Tommy T could be worthwhile in the next 2-3 weeks once Laurie has peaked? I know it’s pretty risky but what other options are there of quality around 500k? Probs not many.....

I’ll be very shocked if Jet wasn’t dropped, he was so so bad! Even with BJ injured they still have options!....

I’m not gonna rage trade Jet out though as in 2-3 weeks he could be back!

Thanks mate. Yeah, I got him last week for a 31 but stoked with his performance this week. Probably should have went with your pick in Momo but it's all good.

That and you know freddy will run a weird bench with his favourite players and try to fit them all in
Will probably see Radley,Murray,Papenhuyzen,Walker bench or something weird like that

Yeah, no kidding.

Haas playing lower minutes this season and getting to demonstrate what a great runner of the ball he can be, instead of just a big minutes work horse, it will definitely work in his favour for Origin selection.

I think Laurie is almost a keeper at the back. I think he's a luxury trade, at the moment anyway.

Liddle also only played 80 cause MBye came in for Joey but it's a win for us.
