NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 49 - Origin is nearly here, it's about time some QLD players got suspended

mrbrownstone wrote:Klemmer has really gone under the radar huh. Gunning it averaging nearly 60, probably doesn't play origin, but only 2.8% ownership. Would have been nice to jump on at 601k in R6.

Got him in draft in rd5, have been keeping an eye on him. If I wasn't such a bye whore, I might have picked him up in fantasy.

Walker or Ilias tonight lads? Gut says Walker, but Ilias due a meatie and decent score.

Settle down mate.

Missing both starting props, best forward 3 games back from ACL.

Only so much you can do with current squad mate

I hear what you're saying mate, but it's not like they were winning with those guys either.

Not expecting miracles, but if ever there's a winnable game, going up 12-0 at home against one of the few teams below you on the ladder is it.

The way they threw that lead away is as infuriating as it is predictable. Dropped kickoff leading straight to a try the cherry on top.

Didn't even know the rules whether they could kick the 2 there and wasted 20 seconds in the process. No urgency. Says it all really.

Hahahaha that about sums it up.

Trust your gut. But I'll say Ilias in case you choose to go against your gut, that way you have me as a scapegoat for your poor decision making skills. If I'm right then I get to bask in my own ego. Win win

Billy Smith my loop will need to decide fast whether I take Ilias score or play Max

Ilias. Walker is a sook this season. Ilias will be ready for a 40.

No, I agree with you. The coach creates a culture where sloppy mistakes are not tolerated. Players should be almost fearful of making mistakes because they are letting their team mates down. With the Warriors, there are no consequences for poor performances. Johnson, Harris-Tavita and Walsh have all been poor today - but all will be in the team again for the next match.

Agreed.

It’s frustrating mate. Brown has to go, they need an influx of young bucks. But can’t see where it’s coming from.

CHT, Pernham were the hopes to steer us around for next 5 years but one gone and one not good enough. SJ running game is gone, sad to see so he’s predictable now.

Pack start of season with a fit Tohu could of matched most

Too right. Will remain a POD for next week at least.

Will take the 40 off from Walsh but still not sold on the trade from an involvement point of view

Pretty annoyed at Ponga's 29, but that's part of owning him. I don't think I'll be trading him but I hate how lazy he is sometimes.

Tohu doing Tohu things. I'm extremely whelmed.

I’ve told myself this every week hahaha,

But yeah, keep expecting him to ice a few plays, break the line and get a few points

Still wfb is a troubling position and he’s consistent if not spectacular

Yeah that's the annoying part, if they could have got it on the field, Walsh & SJ playing off AFB, Lodge, Tohu, Aitken, Curran etc. looked fairly promising on paper.

Hopefully Volkman or Metcalf can add a bit next year.

He stays around until after Rd.17 for me and then becomes Pappy.
I hope Slater chooses Walsh as FB for SOO. Ponga's involvement and form just doesn't warrant selection.
(speaking as a desperate Knights fan)

I feel the same...55 one week, then goes missing the next, and you know if you trade him out he might banner..painful.
