NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 4 - A spawning salmon appears

The difference is Elliot is actually good when firing

Same could be said of Seyfarth and Brown.

Brown is a former subgun, has averaged 55 in a season. Much better than Elliott at peak.

Seyfarth is the guy that I have always said if he gets a start he is in my team. Has been training the house down, has a 54 average at starting EDG (I know he is playing lock, but can easily see that translating to great scoring in the middle, given an opportunity).

Salmon looks a new player at lock.

I’ve heard Grant looks good

Its a trial and its hot..theyve been subbing players every other minute

Storm looked to name a full strength starting side so, read into it if you wish

I would put serious money on Leniu making the round 1 bench

EDIT:

Expecting this for round 1

Collins
BSmith
EButcher
Tupouinua
Wong
Radley

NButcher
May
Leniu
Watson

EDIT 2: Forgot Angus. He definitely makes the side over one of Wong/Tupouinua

Facts. Look at the embarrassment of riches the Chooks have in that pack.
This is why I'm avoiding all but Cheese until there's some clarity (if ever) as Robbo doesn't give a rip about Fantasy teams and will keep rotating the starting pack and minutes so long as it suits. Add JWH into that mix and where are all the minutes for Leniu, May or Wong for that matter?

no wonder kpp is so good at offloads he's about 10 foot tall

Cheese falls into the same problem though..watson can play 9 and cheese is usually better in short stints. Which isnt always great for fantasy. BUT if roosters got a roll on he could pump out some scores.

Robbo said a few weeks ago he sees watson as a lock. But why would radley have a dint in his mins.

Theres just so many good players there

I could be convinced to roll on with BS9 again because robson and jmk are uninspiring and im not keen to gun up there

Obvs lussick is the other option pending TLT

On the dolphins:

-Lemuelu is good
-Aitken is Aitken

Read into that what you wish! Ill avatar that lemu starts

Bradley looks like a goer, hopefully he's a smokey R1.

Yeah feels like a 45s guy. I think Tatola is too, but at least he's cheaper.

I’m not sure Tatola is a 45 guy I have him at 42-43 but I’m still very likely starting with him hopefully makes 100k. If Mamozelos is the 14 that’s better for Tatola then yes then could avg 45.

This whole thing is concerning me whether it’ll be worth taking Aitken or not if he starts you could take him I probs will but could likely be a trap with Lemu there

I'm currently running Lussick / Cheese as Hooker combo. No point gunning when the old 80 min Hooker role has morphed into a 60/20 split to maximise attack options. The only 80 min hookers seem to be tackle-bots, and most aren't that inspiring. I was keen on J.Brails (being a Knights tragic) but Phoenix will steal minutes from him (C or not). Only other name I've been tossing up is JMK, but even he's a little pricey when there's real value elswhere.

that uniform is much better than the other one

Who is this Bradley I'm hearing about?
He isn't listed on the site.

I think there is a reasonable chance that Grant is an 80 min hook again, NAS saying that he is probably doesnt mean anything, but still..

Dont think i want to gun at hooker to start tho

What's Mamo doing? Stealing minutes from Cook or messing around at LK? I'm going with Cook and expecting 80 mins every week. Cook, Tatola and BSmith are pretty much locked into my team at this stage and all playing early.

Big fella. Bit of an early days Yeo build. Looks a decent chance to start there rnd 1. If he does, just pick him and dont think about it

i reckon the young warriors fb will be playing so well even when cnk is fit he'll keep the spot...he's younger & faster

Must have some speed, played CTR and wing in Cup last season.

Is he good? I have no idea who he is

Its just so hard to roll with Hynes when a downgrade to Hutchison can turn Cotter + Lussick > Hopgood + Grant. I really do hate all the halves though.

Egan looking so dangerous, pity he puts his head in places he shouldn't
