NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 55 - Big red and the KP comeback

From the Telegraph

St George Illawarra will rest up Jack Bird for at least the next two games.

Bird won’t play the Panthers on Sunday and South Sydney the following week.

He has had general soreness in his knee so the Dragons plan to rest him to allow Bird to fully recover.

Dragons going to need bird when they make their charge towards the semis

Hmm not surprised, whether it's legit or coaching decision, felt like it was coming.

Thank god for Billy Smith!

Yeah right. Another of MTB's troll accounts

No surprises but CHN out for at least a month. Horse stays on the edge for a bit longer?

Well there's a guy I was going to hold that can now be used to beef up R16 with a proper gun.

It would've made more sense doing it the other way around, but after Cook last week might get Robson this week? I dunno.

Real shame there are somehow no R16 MID options other than Hopgood.

Before he actually played EDG would've thought they just cover him with Young being back from Origin, but that was a pretty storming game by Horse and the rest of the MIDs coverage for the Raiders is pretty decent.

Finished work early so I'm here for my first TLT in a while

Poor Twal

Sorry guys I broke Bird

Hopefully RTS comes in to the system at $250k

Twal and Klemmer just seem like the definition of subgun this year. Same as Finucane, the Kings, JFH, Paseka etc.

Outside of Hops, the highest averaging MIDs currently fit and playing R16 are Butcher (might be benched) and Josh King (the most uninspiring mid MID choice ever). And that's it for the top 20 MID scorers.

Just weird how unbalanced that position has turned out through the byes.

But if Twal can go on a run of tries like Lawrie...

That Bird news if true is incredibly annoying

Obviously great CTR scores but an injury cloud (and however long he’s out) is annoying

So he misses the next 3 rounds, tempted to cash him in.

Bird to RTS.... easy trade!

I'm thinking Bird to Manu, Lomax or Suaali'i at different price points. Avoiding Sharks, Dogs and Tigers with Rd 17 looming. Also takes Kiraz off the WFB list for now too.

Bird to IPAP looks good
