NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 2 - We've all been waiting for Weekes

Wait for Coates to get cheap, buy him for a run of scores, sell him once he starts with a 4 again.

I suspect AKP and Saab fit the same model, but less attractively because of playing for worse teams who put on fewer cricket scores.

So, Souffs could put on a few points against Manly, probably won't against Broncs/Roosters, then may against Doggies/Wahs.

If that tempts you into thinking Munro will Coates-it, or provides enough cheap WFB coverage to be tempted, then go nuts. I may!

But... probably won't.

You mention Coates, he's actually not much more than Munro and I think a much better winger and more likely to get that run of scores.

That said I don't currently intend on owning any of these 300-400k WFBs with no base, would rather wait until they get cheap as you described.

Sloan is a prime candidate for this kind of thing, he's 465k now but I would think he gets down below 300k at some point (as long as he keeps the FB spot that is)

Coates has 5 straight seasons averaging less than 29

That's why you wait until he gets below 300k, then buy and hold until he gets back over 400k, then sell and be done with him.

To MS on Tom whether it’s a joke or not it’s not fair to call him a plodder he’s played plenty at international level and is a premiership winner and still a key part of our go forward. As much as I hate JWH I wouldn’t say he’s been a plodder in his career.

Congratulations to you and your family!

FWIW we had our first about this time last year and I had career fantasy season. I think there's a bit of history of people doing well in the year of their first kid so look forward to seeing you be this year's Booze.

If Coates times his dip to be just after the Melbourne bye then he'll be worth a look as a cash down.

As for the start of the season, non-base price wingers who aren't workhorses/tackle-busters? No thank you. If Munro was 250k I might stash him in the 18-21 and hope for a run of scores to generate cash as opposed to playing him every week, but can't do that with a 350k guy.

JWH has had spells as the best prop in the world. Tom probably hasn't had a single season as the best player in his family

I’m shattered it hasn’t been a good day.

Yes Tass will play right. First 2 rounds Kennar will play left centre I reckon he’s been training there.

Even if Munro is a bit shaky early on I think we need to persist with him and be patient he’s the future.

To MS on Tom whether it’s a joke or not it’s not fair to call him a plodder he’s played plenty at international level and is a premiership winner and still a key part of our go forward. As much as I hate JWH I wouldn’t say he’s been a plodder in his career.
