NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 34 - Super Saturday

Ironman Tyson Frizell shows Knights officials he's playing for keeps

main points:

- "So impressive has been Frizell's start to the season, it's understood he is back on the radar of Blues coach Brad Fittler and in the mix for a possible Origin recall, along with teammate Daniel Saifiti."

- Temple Kalepo (former Warriors hooker), is on the radar as a potential Jayden Brailey replacement

Brought Hynes in and captained him last round. Brought in Crossland too. Yeo the week before that.
26 trades left. Those extra trades we get after Origin - are they part of this 26? Or are they on top?

Going to go hard this round - instead of going Teddy, I'm considering Manu. Dual position, has somewhat bottomed out also, will hopefully play FB for 2-3 weeks around Origin.
And JDB.

If I was to bring both of them in - it likely means trading out a MID gun & a Keppie. Would significantly strengthen my team around Origin without having too much of an impact week to week till then (Hynes/Cleary would be my captain).

Going to be good fun watching Captain Hynes against an understrength Dogs team this weekend!

First thing I noticed but doesn’t that just negate Tolo being out?

Was very surprised at this one but reading the article "at some stage during the season" is important to note.
Strong little runner and good player but doubt he's knocking on the door of Crossland/Mann/Gamble just yet.

Martin and Koloamatangi injuries have put him a bit closer to contention

Literally though it’s impossible to get into Freddy’s brain. Might be a case of great real life performance (and fantasy scores) lead to Origin selection

Would unfortunately be a sell due to bye schedule if selected

Too expensive for me to keep around as cover. I am a screw depth kinda guy though I've realised. Pouring as much into my 17 as possible.

Grouse wrote:Liam Martin re injured his hamstring according to Fox Sports - makes those who took the Hosking punt worthwhile.

Like South Sydney, Penrith is dealing with injuries up front, albeit not in the same magnitude. Liam Martin looks set for another stint on the sidelines after re-aggravating his hamstring injury against Newcastle. “I feel sorry for Marto because…it’s probably better if you know what it is that you’ve got. We’ll sort it out,” Cleary said on Monday. “I don’t really know. Sometimes when it’s like that, it can be maybe a neural thing or something that’s come from his back, so we’re looking into that at the moment. I think I used the word ‘mystery’, but that’s probably unfair because people know more than I do. We’ll work it out.”

Talking about SOO edges. All those with Matterson are a bit worried now. If he gets picked his avaiability with Origin and byes is terrible. Likely no Martin or Kolo now, as well as Crichton unlikely.

Who would be the starting edges for NSW?

Crichton should be back this week. That leaves 5 weeks of NRL before sides are selected. Tbh that is plenty of time for match fitness and form.

Understand if hes not picked but selections are still a long way away, a lot can change by then
