Captain Fifita had a quiet one by his standards today. Should of known when this guy in my league was bragging about having him as a POD captain he was going to be below his usual score.

What do you do if Scott is dropped next week?

Surgery for Billy! Bit farken late to let that out!
Billy Slater (shoulder) is out, replaced by young gun and potential SuperCoach cheapie Curtis Scott. The injury is on the same shoulder that saw Slater miss the second half of the 2015 season. Following last Monday night’s game against the Dragons, Slater pulled up sore and was sent for scans on his left shoulder. As a result, he will undergo an arthroscope this week to determine the extent of the damage. Ben Hampton replaces Christian Welch on the bench.

Start Latrell and leave Scott as an NPR, which is what I would do anyway. But the arthroscope news means he might play on.

Apologise to anyone that retained Cooper on my call. Minutes and work rate down today. Looks like no Dragons forwards are fantasy viable

Not sure what McGregor is doing with Cooper. He made great fantasy points last year when he was playing mostly at prop. Without looking up the stats, he never had huge minutes but seemed to score a point a minute when he was on, mostly through tackles - leading to several solid 50s scores. It helped that the Dragons had a good defence last year and spent a lot of time tackling.
This year, he has been named at 13 but seems to be playing less minutes than at prop. The tackles and hitups don't seem to be there. He'll shed $25k or more this week. If there was any chance he would return to last year's form, I'd keep him and not worry about his price. As others have said, the Dragons pack seems really unstable fantasy-wise so I think Cooper has to go next week.

I'm looking at the list of players, there are only 2 averaging over 30 (Tedesco & Inglis) who you could expect to maintain that week in week out, the rest are wingers with inflated scores due to tries

Anyone watch the game and can give a rundown on LAM and Mann, not too worried about Barba

At the Sharks game.
Ah mau is out of my team next week, just isn't getting the minutes and doesn't seem that involved.
Barely noticed him out ther other than the start, but seems to be used sparingly..
Mann can stay put for now, terrible game but so did all the dragons and was put under huge pressure so could bounce back and score ok. Not a lot of options at his price and worth another week or two to see how he goes. But hard to see how he will be long term but a fantasy fullback almost needs to be a tackle breaker(ie big) to pull the scores up.
Anyone who makes the last tackle on a try scorer or gets pumped with bombs seems to struggle with scores as reflected in the games so far this year.
Ie your tedescos,Inglis type players but also cost $$
Barba seems to be getting more involved and his confidence back. His score doesn't really show his impact but think for his price he scores ok and they will improve
Bird was heavily involved again,goes hunting for the ball and breaks a lot of first up tackles so could be an aubo replacement once Cordner is back.
Hoping his price drops a bit.

Re: 2016 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 13
My problem is if Mann stays in my side and the dragons are still rubbish how much will he lose. He wasn't a cheap addition that will lose penny's like the others cashies.
On second thought i don't know why I bought him now lol, who's idea was that?

Look there aren't a lot of backs scoring consistently so going to have to ride the roller coaster.
If you trade every week then will run out of trades soon
