NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 70 - the Happy Birthday Random thread

Ideally, if VTW is dropped, gives more option if they cut him from the 19 this afternoon.

Rank based on score so far and EMG not added to score yet

I jumped quite a bit with Ponga Bateman and Blore

Didn't realize Skelton was in game as CTR. Might get with JAC injury update and may get Tago as well and then should be covered for CTRs rest of season

Currently looking at Ramien, Staggs, Montoya or Valemei.

Phillip Sami

Edited: YTSB makes a fair point and his suggestions work
If you need a scorer this week then averillo, if you don't then kris

If you're playing them every week, I'd probably go Ramien. Had a peep at the draws and I think the Sharks have a run that's better than the Broncos for CTR scoring. If you're whacking the player in EMG I'd go Avo or Kris, bank the cash, and grab a fallen gun (DCE or Murray top picks for me)

Emergency and rank is counting on desktop if you have bye players in your line-up.

So it is. Oh well. Had hoped for more of rank boost later

He is named for his first start on the wing and has been playing wing in NSW cup too
So every chance he gets dual CTR/WFB next week in the updates which could be handy for the dirty pool hoopers
Or he kills it and stays in first grade so its worth a dice roll for people looking for a cheapie

Jim Lenihan said the Titans bench is far from settled upon, ther are figuring something out today.

i would order them ramien (plays for the best team out of the 4), valemei, montoya, staggs

And we thank you for your sacrifice to the Fantasy gods.

As above, another vote for Ramien.

Probably optimistic that Randall gets Dpp next round.

Could be the difference between 0MTs or 10MTs

Could get him an early shower too, move Turpin to half to sure up the defence.

Nephew of Tony. Interesting to see how many of these guys are still floating around in ressies

I think Sandon plays right side so will be on Loiero side

Also Turpin last played half in 2019 lol

This is where you learn Matt still owns Turps.

Matterson last played in the halves in 2018 before the need arose.

Drinkwater was also the best junior halfback I've seen in the last 10 years, starting for Australian schoolboys over Nathan Cleary

Few familiar names in that team and Drinkwater was the main man

Nice, love looking at stuff like this.

Drinks issue also been more defence, which probably only becomes a huge problem at NRL level. Think that rep will be hard to shake but he’s easily one of the most creative players in the comp.

Interesting to see Keighran on the edge, unusual for a player to go from forwards to backs. Unless they were just trying to shoehorn in another half.

Also Ray Stones Dolphins doco spiel about never having any talent and working hard just seems hollow when he’s on the bench for Aus schoolboys hahaha
