Ahhh yes I do remember this list. I agree that Walsh is a better option than Perham in the long run but I’m also interested in making a bit of cash in the short term. If I go with Perham I’d hope he can average close to 35-40, that should make a suitable amount of gainsChewie wrote:
I like MS's fullback tier list:
Tier 1
Teddy, Turbo, Papy, Latrell, Ponga
Tier 2
Edwards, Brimson, Gutho, Walsh
Tier 3
Drinkwater, Kennedy
Tier 4
Laurie, CNK, Savage
Tier 5
Hammer, Miller, Ramsay, Sloan, Perham
I think Walsh could be a good WFB3, other options outside the FBs are Kiraz and Garick
If you don't have any other fires to tend to, I think Walsh is a good shout

easytiger wrote:Just some curious stats I was wondering about with regards to a selection of topical fullbacks - I was curious as to their fantasy averages when they score tries vs when they don't;
The sample is generally the number of games they have played in the 2022-2023 seasons, with the following additions.
* HTF: I included three 2021 games as they seemed to be appropriate, boosts his sample size (and not doped by Vlandy's ball)
* Turbo: I included six 2020 games, again to improve a representative sample (and also seemed appropriate to his 2022-2023 stats).With Walsh I have removed his GK from his averages (-4.2 pts per game, and dropped his average kick metres points down from 3 to 2), I have boosted his try scoring rate from 11% to a high-rate of 50%.
Sample Try Rate NoTry Ave Try Ave Try vs NoTry diff Cost Priced @ Proj Try rate Projection Tedesco 25 40% 43.8 66.5 22.7 $ 707 50.5 40% 52.9 Miller 6 33% 37.0 63.0 26.0 $ 451 32.2 35% 46.1 Turbo 14 43% 32.4 53.2 20.8 $ 631 45.1 50% 42.8 HTF 10 50% 28.6 50.0 21.4 $ 452 32.3 50% 39.3 Walsh 22 11% 32.9 42.8 9.9 $ 545 38.9 50% 37.9
I'm using Tedesco as a sort of benchmark.
Obviously take the projections with a grain of salt.
The things it maybe illustrates for me;
HTF is still undervalued, but possibly by only 5 points - his real value is that he's a decent floor average with a good ceiling available at CTR (pretty much what we knew).
Walsh needs significant improvement in Fantasy stats to offer value. It's possible, but always an increased risk when you're aiming for that to be the reason for improved scoring (rather than a change of role or minutes).
Millers sample is too small to take too much away, except his style of play (slapsies) suits fantasy points - if he can add a decent try rate... who knows...?
Anyway, a somewhat interesting curiousity more than anything...
Additional note: I removed any significantly injury affected outliers from the samples... (i.e. no 10 minute games that drop averages etc)

Probably same as last week tho, around 70 mins with a break during second half

Just a gut feel?

Not really, not if his form from last week keeps up. Had a good game. Looks playable, high energy/involvement type player, solid base around 40 to 45 probably.
As with any young forward they might struggle to maintain it week to week and get a rest mid season, but not worth worrying about at the moment.

Trades looking like:
Boyd + Butcher OUT
Preston + Walsh IN +234K ITB

Walsh just wanted to be in everything, he looks like a real spark from Broncos. 54 with a fair chunk of attacking stats, but I think he finds a lot of those this year. 45+ seems to be a decent expectation.
234K will get me a good upgrade from Trindall, Carty, etc.
