NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 28 - My name is Marcelo Montoya, you killed my shoulder, prepare for a homophobic slur

MF wrote:One has to go

Mofo or Burton.

I’m thinking of keeping Fotuaka only because he can bash out a high score and everyone has burton

I'd keep Burton everyday of the week over Mofo.

McInnes lover club tickets might be going out again soon

I think those of you licking your lips over a McInnes gun resurgence are waiting for a train that will never come, their pack rotation seems pretty balanced and is working for them, high chance they’re all in the role they’re going to be in for the foreseeable future, save for injuries or major form reversal

How did Welshy Junior pull up with the injury?

After we went back to fracture clinic was hard cast for 6 weeks, so ended up absolute worse case as the fracture was length of his metacarpel in thumb not the original injury they first diagnosed.

Its supposed to be off 27th, but it's coming off next week a few days before our cup semi to see if he can play with strapping. It's only off a few days earlier than expected then.

Looked at his run of scores back in 2020?

He averaged 29 when not getting injured and wasn't playing outside Gagai. Young also averaged 29 last season before landing Gagai as his CTR.

Montoya suspended for four weeks after the homophobic slur

Would need to see him getting 50 in 60 minutes to even consider McInnes.

I had this exact thought on the weekend. Been holding onto my pre sale tickets to the McInnes Lovers Club since February but I'm wondering how McInnes gets 80 in that pack. On the other hand though, McInnes is coming back from a solid 12 month stint out of the game, his minutes have increased every week, and a cheeky stint at dummy half like we saw on Sunday is an easy way for him to sneak an extra few minutes in. I reckon as Sharks draw gets harder the need for a big minute tackle bot increases too.

Closing thoughts: choo choo bitches the McInnes train is nearly here

I don't have Haas also, so wondering if Haas may be a bigger priority next week, but saying that, this is Cleary we're talking about.

Yeah if Haas hadn't got suspended I may have gone him first. But as such, can't go wrong with Cleary. Don't want to hide behind the couch anymore will work on Haas next week

Possibly just 1 trade for me. Coates to Koula to build a bit of cash.

Sexton and Crichton (and maybe Nanai) on the soon to be traded list

Tough parenting decision potentially. Is he the kind of lad who will straight up say he is just not right to go, or will he be trying to play regardless?

Can't spell MoFo without MF. Loves his PODs too. Agree with keeping Burton over him though. Showed enough individual brilliance last year that I think the big scores will come despite being the Dogs.

Mofo's started every game, but still only in that 51 min average where he was last year whether starting or coming off the bench. Don't know that he can rival Burton's potential level of scoring.

One of them lost to Italy in the six nations and the other didn't.

In saying that, you can't spell Matthew Burton without Bream!

Been in cast for 5 weeks by time it comes off mate, missing his review tomorrow as consultant away so was potential of it coming off regardless and next appointment is 2 weeks.

He had hip flexor/hamstring issues start of season, said nothing pulled up in bronco and put himself out for 6 weeks, then found out he had done it kicking in warm up but kept stum. So he knows the repurcussions of coming back too early or not saying if he's injured.

There's no pain when he squeezes the thumb or pulls it through the cast hole anymore when he was in agony previously so signs are good fella

Can't spell Matthew Burton without "a wet butt"

Reckon Kobe gets extra minutes this week?

Feels weird to not have any great inclination to trade, especially as it's not as if my team did super great.

Randall
Haas Papalii Mann
Fifi Nanai
Cleary Moses
Tago Penis
Papy Crichton Koula

Schneider Ming Jones Thompson

Ilias W. Smith Vailea Fifita


27 trades left, 99k itb

weakness is certainly 4th bench and having to play either W Smith or Koula at wfb but thinking I might as well ride the Koula train this week, otherwise not sure.

I guess Nanai is kind of ripening soon.

Des is fairly loyal to his players, is going to take something special from Koula to keep a starting position atm

Reckon he does anything with them if he does? I like Kobe but I’m not convinced he’s a fantasy option yet…

Someone remind Kevvie that this ain't basketball and Kobe can play more than 48
