Would be interesting to compile a list of players better than their fantasy scores vs worse than their fantasy scores.

I think he has definitely played better than his 3 game average of 19 would have you believe

Wait, are you saying he scores higher or lower than his ability?

Well I am saying he is better than his fantasy points
But i didn’t set that benchmark so it’s up to the reader to interpret that

I think rather in points we should compare him in Milford’s

0.86 of a Milford

That would make an exciting fantasy pairing, edge of cliff seat stuff that is

Still patiently waiting to bring Sexton in but round 13 is fast approaching

How many Milford’s would you say the following players are?

Cleary
Taafe
Latrell
Cotter

It's the worst. Matters for a few WFBs (but not as much as people think), and very little for anyone else.

Remember a month ago when Walker was a buy due to matchups?

Linking a few things from this arvo though:

1: ynots stats show on average you score about 20% more fantasy stats playing a team like the Dragons than playing a team like the Sharks

2: the linked article about the Sharks being #1 in push plays also talked about the Sharks aim to isolate defenders to 1-1 a lot more, and noted they had caused teams to have a much higher missed tackle rate than average.

Based on that, there’s possible at least some evidence opposition matters.

Of course, lots of caveats re data etc. eg it doesn’t say whether it matters to every position or certain positions.

So.... CNK anyone? A bit of a gross pick with his form and injuries but he's super cheap at 378k, priced at 27.

Haha get what youre saying but at this point it doesnt matter too much to me. Im not claiming it as some bold move to win the comp with my busted ass picks. Id pick milford for the lols (if he was cheap).

I doubt hes cheap enough so it wont matter

That’s worth half a dozen Milford’s I reckon
Can you be the first nominee of the 2022 Kieran Foran award?

Robelgordo explained it perfectly in the previous page

Largest ability between fantasy scores and ability

Foran has stolen the award that should rightly be named after Darren Lockyer

Hitro okesene award wants its award back

Does anyone have Butter’s trade ins for the week?

2022 captain hindsight nominee :  Boozecluez
2022 Kieran Foran award nominee : MTB
2022 Tom Humble award nominee : Mattnz

We need some more I reckon

Just realised I can get a sneak peak at Koula's score before committing to a Papy WFB trade (don't tell Finch )

Just rules out Ponga and Turbo as possible guns

I almost don’t want to trade in Turbo for this reason… my brain is saying “maybe just have a look and if Koula doesn’t get (really high score he’s never made before) you can trade (fullback of lesser ability). You genius”

Yes, I know......am leaning towards a mid priced non origin WFB but can't make up my mind.

I would rather have a premium priced forward in for Papy so I can even up my scoring potential......I really want Tohu but I also really want to wait a week

This allows me to procrastinate for another day

Haha just checking. I really want to have a look at Lee, but then I really want Ponga.

They are not compatible
