NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 52 - Tigers 66 defeated Cowboys 18

Far out Hopgood isn't cheap eh

He "at worst" "does ok in 20 mins as a roving lock" and "at best" changes the game in the blues favour. He's more likely to go from #14 to #6 in game to than #14 to out of the squad.

I don't know.

NSW has a history of picking random players for a bench role, giving them no game time, then ditching them after a loss that was clearly nothing to do with them personally

Career fullback average of 50 including all the injury shortened games

knights vs origin depleted manly this week. book a 65.

Who do we like better for the run home? (Rounds 20-26)

TU: Horsburgh
TD: Hopgood

I see them flooding Jamie’s discord already and it’s intense 🫠

If Tigers played this week, how many would be getting Starford To'a?

Thats like the only thing I watch these days fantasy wise (including podcasts)
It's digestable in the background while I am doing something and he doesn't go all in on players so it's a good take without the bullshit
But yes the comments are all wanting to be spoonfed, poor guy

Just get Carty (wasn't that a British gangster film?)

Also strong rumours Connor Tracey to the eels immediately
Think I forgot to mention that

I hope it's not this week, I need Russell to keep his spot for one more game

If Parra ever get their forward pack to full fitness, i don't think Hopgood is a final 17 worthy player

So far its all worked out pretty well for Hopgood, but that might not still be the case in round 20

Fortunately, you don't have to decide now, and the extra trades come in r20, so you can make a call then with your trade top up

I wonder if Talakai is back (Based on Tracey leaving) that Kayal Iro might get some gametime soon

Assume the Arthurs to manly spot was the first domino

Walsh should be fairly sore after his 1st origin, unlikely to back up on the sat

His biggest danger is a fatigued Api.

Keep Haas or keep the lovely Patrick

Edit or keep both and ditch Grant for Cook (may be spewing if Freddy get the regrets for game two)

Been waiting to see Iro get his chance in first grade

WALSH will come back to the BRONCOS on an ABSOLUTE HIGH and will PUMP OUT an 80

Not as good as Hale and Pace

I dont care about this round at all as a H2H player.

However I'm looking at Brandon Smith to Garrick just because he is looking alright and in some ok form.

Teddy Bula Manu my current WFB but ideally Manu swings to Center and I drop alamoti.

Pull the trigger or as a head to head player should I be setting my sights on getting both Edwards and Latrell rather than just one of them.

Edit completely forgot about my original plan of Tohu Harris but now im 20k short so would require a Granville downgrade, basically im only doing a move this week if its better for my long term team.

TU: Garrick
TD: Hold trades

or comment if Tohu really worth it.

Interesting re Tracey. A gud depth player to have in the squad, if not usurping Origin gr8 Talakai. Shame

Also every chance they decide Api can't do it all on his own and bring Cook back forcing Hynes out.
