NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 20 - The Gang All Get Injured

An interesting macro point I just thought as I was looking at DBrown and already having Fogarty. Both playing R13 but Hynes also playing R13 if not Origin meaning one is surplus (granted this could be useless with an injury in the next 20 mins)

Makes me think I should go a MID like Carrigan/Tohu who would probably be my best captain

Piakura is an easy trade in later, when he eventually starts again. Very different to trading a Cleary, who will be really hard to get back in again.

Also why is draft not the “popular” form of the game? NFL fantasy player here so just seems a bit odd it’s so behind the classic form.

The draft formats of supercoach and fantasy have always been an afterthought from a development point of view

In ye olden days VNRL was certainly the most popular form of fantasy before Supercoach/dream team became the default versions of the game, and nrlceo and nearylsport have small but dedicated followings.

nearlysport is the main comp I play, but the one thing I like about the overall format is that it leads itself more to communities like this where people can discuss player stats and trades together. With draft formats there's not so much week to week discussion other than just trash talking
So even though my nearlysport teams are my "main" teams, I spend more time talking about Fantasy

It's not that hard to get Cleary back in, simply trade an underperforming gun and midranger to cheapy + cleary

ezpz

If you don't have any underperforming guns just ask yourself whether you need cleary when you're winning the comp?

Crazy - Cotric would have given me 17 players this week - we scored a try and looked OK but gets dumped for Schiller

I am suggesting trade out Piakura and hold Cleary, so it doesn't become a problem you need to deal with to get him back in at the cost of another gun or 2, leading into the origin period

After the Footy and Boxing and Cricket... I started golf at age 30. Great leveller.

Got down to scratch by 35. Have won 19 x A grade club championships at 3 different clubs...Honour board events, if you know what they are. History on the board. Kids, Grandkids, Friends all see it.

Now I play off 3. Blown out a bit but haven't been practising much although I own my own driving range. lol.

If ever you can afford to play club golf, do it. You'll love it. Be good for your character too.

Maybe you'd like to help me out, Rabbit. We can mend fences.

No matter what I do I slice my drive right, 100% of the time. I'm 6'2 and spent my juniors playing cricket and can't stop wanting to cover drive the ball. My chipping and putting is pretty good but I drive as well as Paul Walker.

If you're slicing regularly you're an easy fix. Get that right elbow tucked in at setup and leave it there all the way through impact. You're casting and probably early extending to catch up. Right elbow tucked. Thank me later.

You're trolling, yeah?

What score are people expecting from him as non dominant half. Surely similar to Strange and not massive rush?

If I hold Cleary I’m not super enamoured by Finefuiaki either with 60-65 min role

I'll get to the driving range soon and report back to you.

Thanks, new friend. I can see this friendship blossoming this year. This is a cheapie friendship that's sure to be a keeper by seasons end.
