NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 65 - Phoned in thread title

I swear I saw him on sidelines and looked like he was good to go back on if needed?

By season averages (at least a few games, not currently injured) it's

Grant
Haas, Yeo, Hopgood
Fifita, IPap
Hynes, Cleary
Gagai Bird
Dedwards, Marzhew, Isaako
Johnson Moses AFB JDB

Cover isn't great with this though and there's probably some form picks that could outperform (Drinkwater, Bateman, Nikora, Garrick at FB?)

I think it’s easier to judge cover if you include a somewhat playable 18-21 specifically for cover.

Unless to maximize the team they’re 4 red dot 220k NPRs

Yep, was still in his kit and standing up looking eager.

Wonder where Schuuster ends up, because it won't be in the halves at Manly now.

Nat Butcher & Crichton will probably sit on the Casualty ward as TBC for the next month, sounds like it's going to be a coin toss on who is out longer.

Sounds like Crichton's head isn't in the game anyway.

Roosters have put out a medical up date.

Turps had his ribs rattled, but has escaped injury.

Walker has resumed full training.

Ethan Butcher out rd 18

Nate Butcher sounds in better shape than crichton (4-6 wks)

Comments from supporters, disregard.

Ribs are tough to read though, remember Cheese coming back and playing the next week? Hopefully works out better for Turpin..

Nah ribs are just like tea leaves, once you get the knack you'll be telling fortunes left, right and centre (Unfortunately you need to finish the cup first so I'd have to put poor Turps down before I could tell you how long he's out for)

Just looking at his aura though (and taking into account the fact that I don't have him) I'm predicting that they needle him up and send him out next week.

My take on Ribs (aside from BBQ sauce (from the fridge you heathens)), is that they seem to be more of an issue with getting tackled.

As you generally need to run the ball to get tackled, I'm going to go out on a limb and say Turps should be fine

Piakura on the menu ?

Shame he misses rd 19

Yes

Do you think Jed finally gets the start if Host gets suspended for a couple of weeks?
