NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 3 - Max or Josh?

Ignoring everything else the reason they ran a 3 second rower rotation was due to the talent of Capewell, Martin and Kikau. Having 3 rep quality second rowers practically forces you to create a rotation that gives them all game time. Sorenson is a fringe first grader and not even close to the same talent as Capewell

Eisenhuth's 58 minute average was bulked by starting in all but 4 games. So yes, he can play big minutes, but based on last season it appears they don't want him to. Yep he'd get the starting big minute role given an injury, but that's not what I was projecting/hoping for Leniu anyway.

Martin only averaged 47 mins off the interchange, the 51 mins comes from some starts. So yep you're right I didn't really factor in the "role" a Martin replacement might play, but the minutes were all factored in. But let's say Sorensen is rated as highly as Martin for the edge replacement, that's an extra 9 minutes for Sorensen (or 9 minutes less for Leniu). But then again, that's also 9 minutes that Sorensen isn't playing in the middle, and perhaps that slots straight back into Leniu's role. Perhaps the change simply becomes:

Martin becomes Capewell.
Sorensen becomes Martin.
Leniu becomes Sorensen.

Bang, 38 minutes average.

Now to answer the question posed in the title:

Max

Pick Max

I think they find Kikau more effective playing in spells rather than staying on for 80, and that's behind most of the 3 2RF policy. But after that, yes, they wanted to give the third second rower (Martin) more than the spare 20 minutes so Capewell's minutes got shaved as well.

I suppose it's possible that this year Martin does get 80 and Sorensen just comes on for Kikau's rest plus a bit of time in the middle, but it's a wait and see.

Max was on nobody's radar until a week ago

He had a decent run of forum in 2018 that would make him a great fantasy pick at min price, but has done nothing for 3 years since then. People are just getting excited about a couple of good runs in a trial match. If he goes well again tonight then even more people will be interested, but dogs still have a lot of forwards so not sure where the first grade role is going to come from

seriously though, I'm picking him and will probably complain that no one talked me out of it

Is there much upside to him?

I think he is probably priced a little too expensive.

My gut feel is a little bit of value but not enough to be worth it. Potential is there though if he gets a really big minute role.

Long time lurker, figured I would sign up.

Does anyone know where I can get some NRLFF NFT's ?

Do people feel that with the change back to penalties that the game will slow down slightly and the workhorses will become more relevant again with the drop of kick meters and tackle busts ?
