NRL Fantasy 2022 Part 69 - for Toast

Just Angus and Teddy for me so far 2/147.

Apparently at Storm captains run, Munster FB, Johns halves.

That would put the cat amongst the pigeons

Not really keen on Munster at FB - obviously still has potential to gun it, but I think it lowers his floor and likely his average quite a bit. It’s the kinda situation I’d want to look at first, but I need someone this week. Think I’m going to Dylan Brown instead

Probably enough to turn me off Munster. Just looking at MTB’s site, career average of 47 at fullback vs 52 at five-eighth. Hasn’t played there since 2017…

Edit: what Rob said

Meaney should be back next week right? I think I'm ok with 1 game at fullback and 4 in the halves, think he's still probably the best option. It's close though.

Rabs, sorry to hear about your Nan mate. Fingers crossed for you and your family.

Oh I thought Meaney was longer than 1 week for some reason.

I'd imagine that 5 point difference in averages is fairly easily offset by the addition of things like 4 points for a TO, plus an increase in game tempo (set restarts etc), 5 years more experienced, and lower blood alcohol, less gambling etc

I'd expect him to still be heavily involved in attacking plays.
Caveat: I don't have Munster and so have no skin in the game

Yeah, they’re all good points. Plus he is playing the Titans. I know match-ups don’t matter but…

Wont he be the Goal kicker ????

Munster to fullback is interesting. Fortunately I have the option to reverse it but not sure I’m to keen on any half below him so will probably run the gauntlet this week and hope he is back to the halves next week

Another good bloody point

All this munster talk is really not helping my tbought process considering I locked him in as captain POD for the week

Yeah I think I’m keen again

Still less keen than I would be if he was playing HLF, but he’s probably still the best option in the position I can afford

Fairly confident now that Murray, Munster, Tapine all score within 2 points of each other.

Worst ground in the country to watch as a spectator for rugby league IMO. So far from the action, seats are spread out and not all covered so sound doesn't travel

Weak defence? Not sure I agree on that one mate.

Ball playing up there with Yeo. Kid is an animal

I think Radley is probably a better decision maker than Yeo (who seems to pass when he should often be running) but Yeo is a much better passer. Radley has a couple of shockers a game that go behind his playmakers or hit the ground which stops the attack. Probably because he is tired from trying to kill people in defense

I reckon Munster is a better fantasy player at fullback than 5/8

Would be my first player picked if he played there regularly

When did he start passing the ball before the line, more often than taking hit ups?

Right about when Carrigan got suspended
