NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 18 - Catchy Thread Title

A few thousand Walsh owners just overtook me in the ranks like Reece lightning

Watch Edwards and the 20+ hard yard runs he takes every week, that Walsh took 2 of today.

And how often do you see people talking about having Edwards in their team lol

Well done…….not that hard to say really is it?

Difference for walsh this year is he’s playing behind one of the best packs in the comp, with an experienced 7, and one of the top teams,

If you can’t see it, your wilfully not,

He is already fully priced, like Walsh.

800+ suddenly seems shaky this week

Jack Bird played the full 80, that's one centre problem solved.

Don't you EVER disrespect the Warriors like that

@mattnz
Using the same example of Walsh, what makes his stats any different to Kiraz?
Kiraz has doubled his career average tackle breaks and tripled his offloads this year along with 2 tries
If we are talking his base stats it’s less than 20pts based on a handful of tackles and 100+ run metres

Point is you are buying him for attacking stats, the only difference is you don’t own Walsh

You can buy him too if you want

Yep, that puts things in perspective.

Are you so salty because Walsh outscored your shiny new (and more expensive) toy Fifita? Who also doesn’t take the tough carries ironically.

631/14c awful round with Warbrick/BMM/IKatoa/Loiero. Post your bad scores as well as your good, people...

Haha warriors this year are a top team

Last year not so much

473/10C

The Good:
Trading in Miller
Trading out Cheese
Sloan making $$$

The Bad:
Changing C from Haas to Hopgood (-28pts)
Playing Warbrick over Sloan (-34pts)

At least the bad things this week are just my own poor decisions and not players getting injured. Just need Doueihi to play now so I'm not down to 16

50 in base. No slapsies requires, although could have done with them.

Yep absolute shocker for me, 599/13c

Tedesco ran for 200m+ average a game last season.

There's every chance Walsh keeps scoring tries like a Papenhuyzen or a TTurbo but there's also a reasonable chance he doesn't.

I think a 40-45 average is a reasonable expectation. I think if you're expecting 50+ every game you'll be disappointed but hey, it could happen.

473/10c

It’s a shame Herbie didn’t get given an English flag or Riki a New Zealand flag for multicultural round

530(c)/10 for me, but given how chaotic Sundays have been so far, I am not liking having nearly half my team to come
