Stuff like NRL fantasy, SuperCoach, FPL where you are against the whole field and there’s less rivalry are a harder sell becuase they aren’t as social.
I have some NearlySport comps and most people in them have little interest in overall style comps where every player can have the same team. Its draft or nothing (which is pretty much what the US is if you aren't playing DFS for money)
What I find a little strange is people who play H2H comps with overall teams. There are plenty of draft options available these days, if you actually want to play H2H with your mates, that is the way to go.
Stuff with a financial investment just discourages casuals, and people who might invest might just find getting on the punt easier.
I think there are a few things that make Fantasy/SC not that friendly for casuals. It is as much a trading/finance game as it is about picking good rugby league players which obviously isn't everyone's cup of tea. Plus there is the need to play every single week, rather than the "whenever I feel like it" of sports betting.
