NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 36 - Battle of Hastings...Jazz vs Cheese

You've got to think Angus comes good at some point but there hasn't been much evidence of this yet.....Roosters attack looks clunky as a whole which is impacting his scoring. Had him, traded him out when he was benched but definitely keeping an eye on him

I mean he may not, get benched and Butcher starts again
The few things going for him is his price is fairly low, his DPP and his previous history
He isn't injured that I can see and the Roosters are still a top 8 team, the halves should be able to put him into a gap
And with the way scoring has gone this year, 40s for edge players is fairly normal he is just missing the 60s
So you probably won't lose money on him (I would hope)

The whole 'he is due' is a bit false like tries and the only reason we are looking at him is based on reputation, but there are worse gambles as long as he keeps starting

THats what he said after the game last week. Has he said it again since then?

Does anyone know where we can find Warriors media stuff? I wanna hear Nathan Brown's media from yesterday as it could have some key points on Tevaga and Aitken

TU: Thompson to Cheese 1k leftover
TD: Nanai to tevaga 88k leftover

Depends on team structure. If you have a strong 14-17 then Tevaga is the option.
If you are playing guys like Ilias and Taaffe, Cheese is a huge upgrade for them.

Comments from yesterdays captains run media

I think Billy will improve at No 9

I'll answer as best I can mate.

1) He got hooked

2) Phillip Sami was a late out so Fifi trained at centre in captains run and stayed there for the game, probs safe to say it won't happen again

3) Non covid illness

4) Didn't get to see that game

5) Most tigers fans seem to think Douehi will come back via the centres

6) Curran did his MCL vs the storm and is facing a month on the sidelines

You'll probably get some better answers from others, but here goes...

1. Form, but probs a one-off IMO
2. Looks like a one-off
3. Virus (not COVID). Don't believe any concerns about him this week
4. Didn't watch
5. Speculation was he's a CTR, but with Laurie out could play FB.
6. Curran went off hurt just after halftime (when it was only 16-10). He's out for a month

1) Hooked
2) Covering Sami, Holbrook said trying thing sounded like won't happen again
3) Non Covid illness
4) 12 base Trap like I said
5) Douehui to FB or Centre
6) He started vs Storm before Curran injured. Brown said many players gave up but some stood up. Was clearly talking about Tevaga as one of few decent Warriors players

Cheers all, that's a big help!

But Fitzgibbon isn't ruling out starting the former NSW State of Origin and Australian Test forward rather than easing him back via the bench at Suncorp Stadium.

"I'll keep that up my sleeve until an hour before,"


I think if Wilton starts I will hold for this week, if he gets benched then will trade now

Will need an edge and while I could play Talakai/Tago there and start penisini I would only be pushing the problem forward another week

Had all the edges and now down to a few haha, but this day would come so will pencil in some players and see what happens

Think Mann/Wilton to TPJ might be an option and his DPP should work great and the bye too
Then have a think about the second

The usual talked about players are in the mix but even someone like ACrichton is 599k who has bottomed out, at worst in his current form 43pts average over a small sample
Looks chunky and uninterested but after a roosters loss and a chance of losing his origin spot and needing a new contract could he finally find some form?

Wilton for Wade, keep the good Sharks times coming.

Nah seriously, TPJ and Crichton would be my top 2.

Think TPJ is great value, only concern is with Jackson out he might get shunted into the middle rotation and play less minutes. But as an EDG should average 50+ (probably more like 55), bang out some massive scores along the way

Just can't believe Crichton is washed, you'd have to think the 50s, 60s, 70s start rolling in and he ends up with a 50+ average. Not sure he plays Origin either, so might be a sneaky R13 player.

I'd be grabbing one of them this week but
- I think I need to prioritise outside back cover by bringing in Teddy (don't want to play Coates)
- don't have your cash gen or cash reserves

Might be looking a Tuilagi/Wade downgrade for similar points and save a bit of cash for the EDG depth instead.

Would also like to know this. Have Shaun Johnson in various drafts across various platforms and want to know for how long he plans to let Reece Walsh do all the general play kicking

I HATE GIANNIS!

The warriors never post any of the media on their website it's frustrating as

Have no clue where to find the media

Based on the Broncos media session with Kevvy, I would say Mam is in the team at 6 for the rest of the season in the next 3-4 games.

Bout to watch the next game, will have to catch the highlights of this (was colouring and making playdoh Talakais with the kid haha)

Nugs fan here, so I'll be nervously watching this too. Not confident...

I have Walsh so hopefully forever

Anyone worried about Doueihi re Hastings don't be, he'll be brought back slowly was the word today.

2) What in the world was the story with DiFi to centre? Has Holbrook said if it was just a one off?

Justin Holbrook tried to copy Craig Fitzgibbon's homework. It didn't work out.

Grizz struggling a little more than I expected, you'd expect them to walk away with the series in Minnesota in a couple days.

Got a little $10.00 six legger on the next game:

Jokic 31+ points
Cousins 7+ points
Green 8+ points
Poole 3+ threes
GSW 1st HLF H2H
Total 225+ points

= $42.01 (boosted)

Kick him home for me boys!

Wade's our captain, pretty sure he'll start.  He has come back from injuries before and gone 80min. Fitzy may have different views.

Think I'm happy with Nanai to Hastings as one trade, for the other one, tossing up:

a) Randall to Starling - wish I'd gotten on Starling when he was cheaper, but he's probably still underpriced. Leaves 0k left, a sign?

b) Mann to Tevaga - how does he manage to make himself relevant every year? Nothing more certain in life than death, taxes, and Tevaga somehow making himself a fantasy option mid-season.

c) Mann to Crichton - he's gotta come good at some point, right? Probably better off waiting until he actually does and doing King to Crichton I guess.

d) Randall to Verrills - haven't seen much chat about him, but a sneaky 57 in 64 mins looks alright. Probably an outlier for him though?

e) Thompson to Lee/TMM/Paix - Happy to move Thompson on, but would leave me without any MID cover and not thrilled with any of the options, probably better off holding, right?

f) Hold the second trade. 26 left before pulling the trigger.

Realistically I'm probably tossing up between A, B, and F.

Anything else you'd look at with this team?

Randall
Haas Mann MKing
DiFi Jones
Cleary Hunt
Tago Penis
Hynes Pap Crichton

Schneider Hastings Tuilagi Taaffe

Ilias Coates Thompson Koula
