The Warriors are capable of losing yo anyone, any time. Never underestimate that.

The way the warriors are picking up injuries will be versing the under 12s

Matt did NAS play that role from rd17 onwards last year?

Rounds:
22 - 69 in 65 minutes
23 - 83 in 70 minutes (includes a try)
Finals week 1 - 63 in 50 minutes (includes a try)

Then this season:
53 in 53 minutes
53 in 31 minutes (injured with 20 minutes left in the match)
65 in 58 minutes

So has had a PPM of at least 1 in every game in that role, combined with big minutes.

Was later than that, look at the rounds Kaufusi was out, then playing off the bench. They named Tui at EDG but NAS was playing there most of the time. He also played there in one of the playoff games.

Mmk I see, small sample size but wont argue that its an attractive role for him. $670k is up there though, if he was to go back to just a pure mid role it would be a bit disastrous.

SuperCoach Ofcourse doing it better than fantasy. They have it on their bye rounds that you set a 17 and they just take the 13 highest scorers. Way better than just the starting 13. Really want to bring Robson in but there’s no point since I have JMK

Same boat, looked at Robson but no point since JMK graces the hallways

Does NAS play any edge if Katoa and Loireo are both fit? They are both 80 min players. Katoa went off with an HIA so maybe thats why NAS moved to an edge.
Seems like the storm need him to play big minutes anyway

At least it's protected people from bringing in Granville. I'd probably have done that under the SC system.

Toying with the idea of being my Hynes token

Its very tempting, especially with SJ having a bye in rd 12. The obvious issue is not having SJ for rd 13.

That’s true, i like that you can look at the positives in anything

Believe he is just swapping with Loiero on attack rather than fully playing edge. Gives him more attacking ball, guess it makes sense from a coaching perspective to utilise him more as an attacking option.

NAS plays left EDG on attack mostly, but when Katoa went off, he went to the right and caught a cold waiting for the ball, like Katoa before him.

Yeah that was my thought. Can slot IKat or Niko in R13? They're all capable of hitting a 40, might lose out on a few points in R13 but gain points in rounds 10-12 with Hynes?

Something to ponder

I think "better" is subjective. This arrangement is harder which I personally like. More room for skill expression as it were. (I'm not doing all that well this season for context but in general I think the harder the game the better)

Tough one to get a gauge on

I don't like banking trades but looking at Sele to Tatola for next week

If you played SuperCoach you’d be deprived of my company and who’d want that?

I didn't grab Nofo that year. Had already stacked WFB and bench, didn't have trades left to burn on the cash out. Death rode him the whole way home for a top 20 finish. Might have been top 10 if I used that trade to grab him

Yeah definitely an option in a week or two depending on the scores for this week. If Sele can scrounge a 40 together with an attacking stat or two that would be lovely

Krump wrote:On a fantasy thought. Are people worrying about Rd 13 too much? With how few trades I have left I’m considering kind of giving it a miss and working towards rd 15 and somewhat 18 then fix the mess with my free 8 trades

I'll be running atleast 2 WFB and 1 CTR down. Possibly an EDG as well
I'm avoiding trading in crap players just due to playing round 13
