NRL Fantasy 2020 Part 92 - Fanatics Anonymous Off Season

Mulvy wrote:nrl.com usually do an article at the start of each season regarding each teams goalkicking stocks. But I'll have a guess at:

Broncos - Reynolds
Raiders - Croker, maybe Fogarty.
Bulldogs - Averillo, maybe Burton
Sharks - Hynes
Titans - Sexton
Sea Eagels - Garrick
Storm - Papenhuyzen
Knights - Clifford
Cowboys - Holmes
Eels - Moses
Panthers - Cleary
Rabbitohs - Mitchell
Dragons - Lomax
Roosters - Momorovski
Warriors - Shaun Johnson
Tigers - Douehi, maybe Hastings until he's back

Thoughts?

There's a few guys priced randomly above/below average. More priced above than below. Unless there is something crazy anomaly around the new stats that we can't see I don't know why its happened.
Makes Crichton a good pickup though

Clifford kicked for Knights last year even with Ponga in the side. I'd expect that to continue, although Ponga apparently has the better conversion rate according to the Knights website: 71.4 vs 67.4.

Edit: just remembered that Ponga spent half the year battling a groin injury, maybe they didn't want to risk it. This year, who knows.

Speaking of Clifford whoever his halves partner is won't be a noted kicker of the ball. I know kick metres nerfed and all that but he only averaged 300 kick metres per game last year and could easily raise that to 450-500 per game

Yeah Crichton at CTR averages 37 points. Should be a no-brainer at his current price.

The value is in Clune, not Clifford.

Clune is 10 points under-priced, Clifford is priced correctly.

If you pick all those must haves + Cleary - it leaves you with an average of $383k each for you remaining 12 players
