NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 36 - Non Cleary owners quit en masse

Too getting over 200 RM and 5 TBs every week. May not have the 1 on his back, but gets the stats of a gun fullback every week. Averaging over 60 with just 3 tries in 6 games.

It’s just more his position. It’s too easy to freeze a winger out of the game just by happenstance of game flow. For every odd 20 he scores he will need a 100 to keep the 60 average. 6 games is still way too small a sample size to extrapolate just yet. It would make him the best pure winger in fantasy history also, which I guess I could entertain since he’s such a hard worker- but still gonna remain very guarded on this one.

Sick kids and a bunch of work mean i couldn’t watch the previous game, let alone this huge match!

thanks to all the regulars here for chipping in and chatting through matches - it means i still kinda feel involved.

a drink: to high scores, low injuries, and detailed analysis!

The more I watch BSmith the more I think NRL standard roving forward/top benchie yes, NRL standard hooker, not so much

Welch is almost at 1 ppm so happy enough with him. The others, yeah not so much, but highly owned.

Yeah this. Mostly just concerned with Welch, and he's going pretty good. Almost blew my load with his crash play inches from the line.

Been saying it for a while, imo really overrated at hooker. Amazing lock/impact player but doesn't have the brains/service/fitness to be an elite hooker.

The only time I see him scoring low is if the opposition deliberately kick the ball out on the last tackle every time, like they were sometimes doing to RTS. Even then he will still get involved somehow. The good thing is that Cleary must have told the team, if Too is ready for the hit up, give it to him, always gets the ball when he wants it.

Scored 76 this week with no tries, will hit 100 this season.

Your unwavering optimism is commendable- you were also adamant Cotric couldn’t have a low score in him not long ago, but no player is immune from the odd low scores. Teddy will score a 30 this year- maybe even this very game. And if Teddy can score a 30 then you better believe To’o can catch a cold on the wing and post a 20 at some point. It’s nothing against what the player is capable of, it’s that sometimes that’s just football

Cotric stopped running the ball in attack, don't see Too doing that.

Storm must have an extra special ingredient in their smelling salts. None of their HIAs stick.

Does Ikavalu get both a turnover and an error for that?

How did roosters end up with ball in that set?

I missed what happened after where the Roosters got the ball after that.. another scrum fuck-up by Storm?

All good mate

It happened so fast I dunno if there was even enough time for a scrum.. maybe the pass was ruled forward or obstruction.. Very weird.

How good is Andrew Voss?!

Worth 10 Blockers

That Harry Grant isn't bad

Great run by Pap, but nasty looking twisted leg in the tackle.. Soldiering on for now.

Good day to own Munster.

How the hell is Papy still moving?
