NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 44 - Magic Saturday

Took a punt on JDB despite being named at prop. Did Bird get subbed?

What’s happened to him?

Nervous about origin selection

On JDB I was really disappointed he got selected at 8, but I thought meh, he is a tackle bot with an off-load and a huge engine.

Plus I had only brought him in two rounds ago, so decided to keep him for R13 and just suck up his 45s.

Gotta say very happy with how it's looking so far, but I think he gets 15 mins off the second half unless the Dragons are close to winning.

Bird getting lock minutes 60 odd.

Have they awarded anyone an EFIG this season?
There's been few clear ones, but I haven't seen them awarded yet (not in this game)

Hopefully Robson isn’t

Hope Talau does something in the second half, not playing him but would be nice to get some price rises out of him.

They’re not shown on MTBs site but are included in the score

that's what you get when you don't wear shinguards

He was an easy hold but enough uncertainty with new position to not buy this week

Hook impending sacking may change things

Thanks Camo!
I'll see if @SI can fix it up for us

JDB 50 points with 35min to go.

I reckon he goes off for a short spell when Bird comes back on.

Roosters: A couple of changes for Trent Robinson's side. Billy Smith comes into the centres for his first NRL game of 2023 with Drew Hutchison moving to the bench and Jake Turpin to 18th man.

Cowboys no late changes

Bird back on.
JDB still on.

Sullivan is GUN

Seems to go alright

10x better than amone

Sloan - Sullivan on the menu perhaps

Just play Hunt and Sullivan in the halves. I've been watching the game but had to look up whether Amone was playing in this one.
