Who are we really hot on that has low ownership, and who is in lots of teams that we are cold on?

AKP 32% pretty sure we are much lower ownership here
HTF 29% much lower here
Teddy 26% expect we are lower ownership here - Dolphins and Warriors first up, could come back to bite us.
Stone 26% - surprised so high still
Boyd at 21% is probably the first that we would have much higher ownership of here, other than Hopgood and Smith who everyone has.

E Butcher 4% - Are we wrong on him as higher owned here
Trindall 3% - We would be higher here
Douehi 7% - In many more teams here
HSS 6%
Carty 9%

Certainly creates some interest in punting on Trindall and shifting to a Sea Eagle or Panfer after their byes if it goes to shit.

Big names like Teddy will be higher ownership amongst casuals (but also somewhat popular with diehards)

I'm struggling to find a gun back other than Teddy that has bonus of Dolphins and Warriors up first

Read whatever you want into the coach's comments about the four backrowers named in the 17.

This doesn't just go for Boyd, but for any player where you find yourself asking  "why do people like him"

Go to www.footystatistics.com
Select the player you are interested in
Filter by the position they are playing this year (restrict to 2022 only if there's enough data)

Look at the average and compare it to the 1st round BE

In this case you see Boyd has a 47 average at halfback, and is priced at 33.

To be a fantasy supremo you don't have to be that good at football if you can kick, tackle and goalkick enough

Boyd can theoretically hit his BE just on tackles (minus missed tackles), kick metres and conversions. Any attacking output is a bonus

I think picking on fixtures can easily back fire, especially when we are talking about only a 2 week period.

Latrell is the same price as Teddy, can average around the same, and you don't need to trade until origin.

One theory I am toying with is starting teddy, and thinking of the option of trading him to Trbo/Walsh/whoever looks good just before his bye.
Don't really want to have too many pre-planned trades going into the season. But if it turns out Teddy is going too well and I don't want to trade him, that's hardly a bad result.

He also expects Doorey to become an 80 minute player for them, but not necessarily in round one.

What's the story, more of Doorey?

Guess anyone who didn't get a PM can ignore any future questions as their advice isn't appreciated...
