That's epic @Mulvy
I went back thru and there's a few Fanatics in each of the previous months top 50s, but June was definitely the strongest month for the boards
I think 13 in the top 100 for the month by my count
July with the R17 bye could be a strong month for Fanatics as well

There are some notable players missing from my team, DCE, Teddy, Murray, Haas, and Grant. I won't be able to get all of them.
Ted is scary to not own, but with Hynes, Pappy, Mitchell I could probably risk going without.
Murray is expensive and I might be able to get another one of these guys in if I get say Haas instead.
I don't really need DCE with Cleary Moses Hughes, but I want him still.
Haas should be a bargain soon. Grant will be relatively cheap and with Cheese possibly missing seems compelling as well.
How would you guys order the importance of these players? Cheers.

DCE always destroys on the run home, so I think he's a must. Souths played alright so I'd wait and see what kind of minutes Murray gets first. Ted is indeed scary not to own but seems less dangerous with the Roosters not firing like they normally do. I'd rate them;
DCE
Ted
Murray
Grant
Haas
I may be rating Ted too high though. You could easily make the case of Murray and Grant being ahead of him. Broncs playing well, Haas doesn't need to be flogged each week.

On the other hand, is Latrell still a trade in at his price? Or just skip and aim for DCE/Ted etc.?

Purely vibes-based, I'd go:
DCE
Grant
Ted
Haas
Murray
Think you can probably get better returns with Haas + 140k than Murray. Grant I reckon (hope since I own him) is set to gun it without Cheese. Ted I think is nice to have, but maybe not quite must have with Hynes, Pap, Latrell (again, I hope so at least, because I have the same 3 and no Ted).

Yeah I'd probably lean to Grant and then Murray above Ted. But not too much in it.

So as a Kiwi I dont really have much skin in the game when it comes to the Dolphins. I also know very litter about where they are based out of.
From those more knowledgeable, and ignoring their real lack of marquee signings (had to LOL at the Nikorima signing), do they have much of a chance of attracting a fanbase? I assume they would need to convert a fair few Broncos fans? Would anyone actually just change teams? Seems unlikely from a team as popular as the Broncos in Brisbane

Early mail indicating Hastings to 13 with Brooks/Doueihi in the halves which will have implications on Hastings and Tigers forwards owners. Implications on tigers fans still unknown but probably not great
(not much else important in here other than Lodge set to debut for Roosters)
(not much else important in here other than Lodge set to debut for Roosters)
- Spoiler:
- Interim Wests Tigers coach Brett Kimmorley is considering a shock reshuffle with halfback Jackson Hastings to move into lock for Sunday’s match against Penrith.
If Kimmorley confirms the move, Luke Brooks would revert back to halfback with Adam Doueihi to start at five-eighth.
The switching of the club’s three top line players is certainly being considered but is yet to be confirmed.
Wests Tigers trained on Tuesday morning with the team to be formally announced at 4pm.
Doueihi told Kimmorley last week that he desperately wanted to play number six while Brooks has always seen himself as a No. 7.
Brooks even came forward last week to suggest Doueihi’s best position was five-eighth.
Hastings will accept the positional switch but may not be entirely happy.
Kimmorley has not won a game since taking over from Michael Maguire, who was sacked by the club in early June.
Wests Tigers match against Penrith kicks off at 2pm this Sunday at CommBank Stadium.
SAMI SET FOR RETURN
— Travis Meyn
Titans winger Phil Sami is set to make his return from injury in Saturday night’s derby against the Broncos, giving Gold Coast coach Justin Holbrook a near full complement of players to choose from as he fights for his future.
Sami hasn’t played since round 11 due to a persistent knee injury which has limited him to only seven games in 2022.
But the former Queensland Origin winger is expected to be named in the Titans’ 17 on Tuesday afternoon for the Cbus Super Stadium showdown with the Broncos.
If Sami returns, fullback Jayden Campbell will be the only player unavailable for selection out of the Gold Coast’s best 17.
Campbell is nearing his return from a hamstring injury and is expected to hit the field in the coming weeks.
Holbrook desperately needs a win to drag the Titans up from 15th spot on the ladder and secure his future at the club.

MANLY SWEAT ON COVID CASE — Dean Ritchie
Manly coach Des Hasler has Covid – but will still coach his Sea Eagles this weekend.
Hasler contracted the virus over Manly’s bye weekend and will return to Sea Eagles’ training later this week.
There were fears Hasler would miss Manly’s important game against Newcastle this Saturday afternoon at 4 Pines Park.
But Hasler quietly entered isolation late last week and will emerge from lockdown to take charge of his team for the Knights game.
Hasler preferred not to comment when contacted.
Other NRL coaches to have contracted Covid include Trent Robinson (Sydney Roosters), Craig Fitzgibbon (Cronulla), Ivan Cleary (Penrith) and Mick Potter (Canterbury).
STAR ROOSTER NEARING RETURN
Sydney Roosters playmaker Luke Keary is edging closer to a return from his latest concussion after training at Moore Park but there was one notable omission on Sunday morning.
The Roosters had a ‘light’ training session in the wet ahead of Saturday’s must-win clash against St George Illawarra after being given the week off during the bye round.
Keary has not taken part in any contact training but the Roosters are confident the 30-year-old will be back this season, with suggestions he could make a return as soon as this weekend.
“He was training, he looked good,” fill-in five eighth Joey Manu said.
“I don’t know what the team (will look like) this week but he has been training and looking good.
“He had the week off but he’s back now and training hard to try and get back to playing. It’s good to see him out there.
“He’s important for us, he’s the dominant half and he manages the game well. He’s a big part of this team and hopefully he can be back soon.”
After five concussions between 2018 and 2019, Keary suffered another head knock in round 14 and has experienced headaches since the knock, a delayed symptom of concussion.
New recruit Matt Lodge had a hit out for feeder club, the North Sydney Bears, on Saturday and was given the day off training.
But the prop is primed to make his Roosters debut against the Dragons.
“I don’t know much about Lodge but I have played against him and he’s a strong player, which is good for us, having him on board will bring some extra power,” forward Sio Siua Taukeiaho said.
It’s expected Roosters coach Trent Robinson will name Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, who has been out with a hamstring issue since round 12, as the 10th placed Tricolours ramp up their finals push.
Waerea-Hargreaves put his hamstring to the test with some running drills on Sunday morning and finished the session unscathed.
“If we can get Jared back as fast as we can, that would be good,” Taukeiaho said.
“He has always been the leader of our forward pack. Just having him around, having that voice for us forwards. Everyone knows what he brings to a team, that bit of brutality. It will be good to have him back hopefully this week.”
BRAILEY REGAINS SPARK AFTER DARK DAYS
An emotional Jayden Brailey took time out ahead of his comeback to reflect on his journey – the heartache of missing the first half of the season because of a pre-season ruptured Achilles.
Brailey made a solid return in an unbroken 40-minute second-half stint during Newcastle’s loss to South Sydney on Friday night.
The Knights co-captain was a positive for the Knights after starting off the bench – laying on a try in his first game since last year’s week-one finals loss to Parramatta.
“I was pretty emotional through the week,” Brailey said. “It’s been a big six months.
“Before the game I wasn’t too nervous. I’m not sure if that was because I was coming off the bench. I wanted to be relaxed and have a bit of a spark.
“I reflected on the last six months. The club did a good job in welcoming me back. They made a video for me. I sat back with my girlfriend and took a look at a few of my old (rehabilitation) videos. The mental battles and, of course, the physical battles. It’s a good feeling to be back.”
Brailey has had just two weeks of full training. He said it had been “frustrating” watching his teammates slump towards the bottom of the premiership ladder.
“The first five minutes I felt the worst but once I got my second wind I felt really good,” he said. “It went really quick but it’s just unreal to be back. My fitness will come back.
“We’re a better side than what we’ve tossed up.”
LODGE LAYS SOLID FOUNDATION FOR NRL RETURN
Matt Lodge came through his first match since playing a suburban rugby game unscathed.
Lodge made his rugby league comeback after turning out for North Sydney on Saturday afternoon. He started at prop for the Bears against the Raiders and played about 40 minutes in two stints.
Lodge played an unbroken 20 minutes in the first half before returning midway through the second half during the Raiders’ 30-16 win.
It was Lodge’s first game of rugby league since his messy split with the Warriors in May, where he had been averaging a solid 113 metres from 13 runs in 47 minutes this season.
He made a cameo in Brisbane suburban rugby to keep his fitness up before signing with the Roosters for the rest of the season earlier this month.
Lodge is expected to be in contention to make his Roosters debut against St George Illawarra at Gosford on Saturday.
At his best, the 27-year-old could be a strong addition to a forward pack that already includes spearheads Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Siosiua Taukeiaho, Lindsay Collins and Victor Radley.
Waerea-Hargreaves hasn’t played since round 12 due to hamstring issues, while Collins will be coming back from State of Origin duty with Queensland.
KAUFUSI EYES RETURN
Melbourne forward Felise Kaufusi will return to Storm training midway through the week after being granted personal leave to be with his father in America.
The Storm said the condition of Kaufusi’s father Taniela had improved but he still faces a long period of recovery ahead.
“The Kaufusi family and Melbourne Storm thank everyone who has been in contact with personal messages over the past fortnight,” the Storm said.
Kaufusi missed the Storm’s loss to Cronulla on Thursday night after rushing to Los Angeles to be by his father’s side immediately after the second State of Origin game.
As a result, he was not considered for the Queensland side for the Origin decider, which will be played at Suncorp Stadium on Wednesday night.
Kaufusi’s return will be welcome news for the Storm as they deal with a myriad of injury problems. Back rower Kenny Bromwich and winger Grant Anderson finished the loss to the Sharks with injuries, adding to the catalogue of players who are already on the sidelines.
Bromich will miss at least a week with a knee issue while Anderson’s season appears over after he suffered an elbow injury.
SHARKS FORWARD RULED OUT FOR THE SEASON
The NRL season of powerful Sharks forward Jack Williams is over.
The 25-year-old has undergone a shoulder reconstruction after first suffering the injury in round 10.
Nominated for the Sharks Player of the Year award in 2021, Williams was considered a major part of Craig Fitzgibbon’s forward pack plans this year.
Williams had attempted to rehabilitate the injury over the past two months.
However, after further medical advice Williams has opted for surgery.
He will aim to return for the Sharks 2023 pre-season training in November

Well that sucks as a new ofa & pole owner in sc & vsdt...I have no clue what playing Hastings as a lock will add to the team imo it will weaken them. He won't like tackling the big opposition middles in fact he'll probably injure himself/miss tackles, he won't make any yardage/go forward because he won't do the hard yards/hit ups & even if he does he'll get smashed/injured & he's injury prone & playing in the forwards only increases the chance of injury.
