NRL Fantasy 2021 Part 43 - I met up with the Gambler

So... which one?

I really don’t know. I couldn’t tell you what either of them has scored in any match this year hahaha

Guess I’ll go the one who starts in Sims if Lane is benched. Papi and Matto both 80 minute capable

I have a theory that next week Cleary will do some reflecting and become discontent with winning all the time and privately acknowledge to himself that it bores him. While it will not be deliberate, it will eat away at his existential reality and he will start to make a lot of uncharacteristic errors.

This is my bold prediction

The rest of the forum cares very much @surmo. Please let some more of it out!

There’s no way I’m riding that roller coaster again after last year

One more HIA for matto is approaching career ending proportions

Ha, I remember. Enlighten the forum of the experience

It’s annoying because I spent a fair bit of time debating whether to ditch Roberts this week. It would have made yesterday’s decision making a lot easier. I guess there’s going to be quite a few in the same boat.

Haha was it a minutes thing?

Looks like he’s the type to go either 40 or 60 in 60 minutes

Was he dual last year too?

He was dual but his minutes started to shrink towards the finals........culminating in a 20 minute total in the last game which contributed to me falling out of the top 100 (along with others being rested and my own lousy trade management).

AAAASSSSHHHHLLLLEEEEYYYY BBBBBLLLLOOOOOOOOOODDDDDYYYY KKKKLLLLEEEEIIIIINNNNNN

What a disgrace.




Just kidding.
It was a great game.

Neither will get 80 but both capable! Hope Matto can get through the match unscathed. His head issues are a worry. Such a talent.

Good luck with Sims! They are so weak at edge so he should be no risk!

I am so keen to watch the Eels tear apart the Bulldogs.

That is a crazy forward pack with Lane, as well as Paulo & Cartwright in particular to come on fresh with ball-playing skills when the defence is tiring. Niukore with the capacity to shift from CTR to MID/EDG as well when Dunster comes on. No mercy!

Val might be a consideration if Laurie is out and going to offload him in a few rounds anyway

Reynolds out for 6 weeks.

Reynolds out 4-6 weeks

Nah it was just super up and down scores at the backend last year

You don’t how badly I want to type stand and applaud in caps

Murray also out 3 weeks - was mentioned with the Reynolds info

Hopefully ok for Origin
