NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 1 - Gates are open, come on in

If Iro can score 47 on the wing with no tries and 5 errors, sky’s the limit.

Strange is a slight concern

Agree I would have more faith in Iro than Strange.

I know nothing about strange but his competition for the halves spot seems to be weekes & he is shite so strange is an easy pick at ctr

Yeah, pretty sure he beats him out. What's the story with Savage? Word is that it could be Weekes FB

on a pod they said he had bad attitude & unlikely to be in the team rd. 1

weekes is very short & can't jump high he's a liability at fb

I still think if Weekes starts he is worth stashing in your emergencies

Hahaha oh boy, never seen this before

If he starts fb it almost seems silly not to have him, despite how he has looked previously in the NRL.

I dont actually want to pick him

Agree with the above. Talking hookers, a JMK/Robson combo looks good, or could be exactly what's on the tin.

I might take Munro as my 3rd WFB I haven’t decided fully yet.

Avg 39 in NSW Cup last year priced at 25. He’s so fast too so half a gap he will take advantage.

You would think he can avg mid 30’s or slightly higher to get into the high 400’s.

I remember last year Thompson early on had a few chances but wasn’t fast enough to take advantage or he bombed them. I see Munro taking more advantage of such chances.

Only concern is does Tass go to wing when Wighton is back.

I am not fully sold on JMK priced at 47 I get the appeal and he plays all major bye rounds I believe but I have him right bang on a 50 avg. He will still have those games where he scores some 30’s inbetween the 50 and 60’s scores.

I think I would like Grant or Robson and then hope for a cheaper hooker. We all know Grant will probs avg around 60. Robson I think can avg 53-54 first half of the year he’s done it before.

If Clark starts at lock for the Titans I’d imagine he will be very popular for 14th man in many fantasy teams

Randall at Lock could be great. twice played 77 minutes at lock last season for 65 and 72 points.

I’m gonna start with JMK because now hooker feels like a position I have to fill, not a position I want lots of players and I don’t have enough space for

i've heard that both Savage and Weekes are on the outer.

Happens often with new recruits.

Low 50's would be worth it, as you say plays all the byes.

Cotric would have to slot in somewhere surely you would think or has he dropped off the radar these days ????

Talakai is going to keep the Sharks centre spot and everyone is going to have clear their pre-season teams though

Talakai will be a bench EDG and score rubbish and Harper will be a GUN CTR

I do not even have Iro in my latest draft as I’m expecting Talakai to start at centre. Obviously I’d love Iro starting of course.

I have Lomax and Strange as my current centres.

If Kiraz is centre though and gets DPP I’ll be interested.
