NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 56 - Adelaide, home of the dark blues

No way you had all that info on hand and just wrote all that out MS.

Fantasy Amateurs have been on Meaney over Edwards.

Im moving out Bird and Brandon Smith and have $1.412m to spend I Need a WFB and then just the best hopefully Keeper I can buy.

Im a H2H player but im down to 12 trades so really need to bring in Keepers or guys who make loads of cash.

Edwards + 670k guy (ARey the only one who looks decent)
Meaney/Drinky + Tohu/Tapine/Bateman (struggling to work out which for H2H)

alternatively, I can also go Nikorima to Fainu early and then can go Edwards + Anyone

Someone needs to hit Jarome Luai with a "scoreboard champ".

I wouldn`t be saying anything if my team had two tries scored on it in the dying stages of an origin game against 12 men.

Nothing he said was wrong

I think if you're going to wear your hair over your shoulders (so players arent able to grab your shoulders/neck line of jersey), then you can expect to get your hair pulled every now and again.

i dont know if walsh grabbed his hair "just to grab his hair and stir him up" or whether he wanted to grab his jersey by the neck, saw the hair, and went 'well fuck it, thats on you'. i'm also not going to bother to watch a replay of it.

its all a bit silly, but also all a bit fun, bit of a laugh really.

"we are still in this" - doubt

"still really faithful in our side" - doubt

I do remember when the ABs had a bet amongst them to see who could rip out one of George Smith's deadlocks.

Seemed like a real cunt thing to be doing.

I'm sure Kimmorley could still throw a long ball

Tpj second stint was 8 minutes, he was hooked after the offload went wrong

How about give him a chance to redeem himself, billy didn’t hook cotter for his massive error

In fact he caught the tpj offliad that put us in good position

I've always said Roosters fans are alright

Your original comment is great gear, you've got my vote to replace Freddy. Blows my mind that NSW has won 1 of the last 3 series (and the one we won was with 2021 Turbo) and we still think Pantherball is the best option

Willingly selecting TPJ and getting surprised when he has a rocks moment rather than a diamonds one is bizarre. But Freddy also has a recent history of picking those types of guys and then hooking them (Staggs last year, Talakai when he got picked out of position, CWalker in 2019)

I genuinely cannot believe TPJ was picked, and he played accordingly. No further chances required. He did what he does. There's no gud to come from it. I'd much rather Uele qualify, somehow.

Post origin late mail from NRL

Looks like lots will backup if they pull up OK.

Also think NSW should've moved Murray to defend at centre when Turbo went off, Fifita on Hynes was a ludicrous mismatch and Qld found space there so easily for Hamiso's 2nd try even though we had the man advantage

Main advantage of Turpin is he plays R16, and he is over $100k cheaper

That’s what might sway me to Turpin as I need funds in the run home to get Hynes, Fifita and Grant. So yeah need more cash gen.

I domt like bringing in Reyno, I’d go the second option mate. Tohu or Tapine look good options.

Mitchell Pearce did nothing wrong is quite different to Mitchell Pearce did things right... just sayin'

It was a lot of words, and tbh I only got up to Jamie Buhrer and curled up into a ball, but I broadly agree

Qld mainly won because the entire team was better, not just because Mitchell Pearce was not as good as Cronk and Thurston

The other aspect is it's not like anyone else was being constantly overlooked to go back to Pearce over and over and over. He was mostly the best of the limited options available.
