NRL Fantasy 2023 Part 26 - Tries are base stats

Ugh. Blaize and Chan dropped along with Rapana injury really fucks me.

My options are:

Hold Sitili and play with a full 17 but cop his inevitable price drop and awful score or trade him out and cop 16 players.

I'm leaning on the side of Rapana & Sitili > Stewart/Iro & Hynes and just running out 16.

My other option is Rapana & Teddy > A Crichton & Hynes giving me 17, but holding onto Sitili for another week.

Want rid of Sitili. Limited options that I can afford but could do with a cheap half. Not convinced on TMM but Mam seems cheap and Arey could be out a few weeks. Worth a punt?

And don't forget the milford party is just around the corner

I don’t mind it. Watched the WC last year - was far less clinical and more take a chance / attack the ball. Seemed more entertaining for more of the match than a prem league game (prefer to watch the highlight reel for those)

I really enjoyed watching the good teams. Watching NZ team tonight if I had a dollar for every pass to feet in attacking third I'd not have enough to buy a beer

May aswell load up on some new potential shittos

Probably same ins and Chan/Blaize out instead of Sitili (traded out last week)

Why are the cows never easy.

Iro: Looks the goods with a good score in the bank, could be gone in 2/3 weeks.
Chevy: Trials didn’t look flash so no idea if he scores well, should have decent JS

You’d have to think Blaize comes back in at some stage, maybe just getting him out of the spotlight for a week?

He looked great last round. No Howarth to spell him?

Hmmm....the only people with a spotlight on Blaize are us. Not sure it's that.

In theory all the shirt is are an HIA away from a recall

Reserve stats:

Iro: 47.9 in 40 games at Centre
Chevy: 42.2 in 21 games at Full Back

You could argue both have great potential, Iro has the lower BE, Chevy has the better security.

Read somewhere on Twitter that it’s possible Hopoate coming back moves Kris to FB. So Chevy might be a two/three week prospect too

I'm gonna keep the faith with Bliaizae. Asi hasn't ever nailed a starting role and Balalalaiiiizzze is the subject of a bidding war. Eels want to nurture the lad, and he'll get more games soon. Holzd.

Yeah, he can play 80 with that bench. Good chance at 50+ scores.

What are Teddy owners doing? I could trade him to nicho, or just ditch Chan to someone 595 or less

If someone guaranteed me Teddy wouldn’t play origin I’d be happy for fantasy and as a blues fan..

If Ted is fit, he's playing Origin. No way he's healthy and playing for the Roosters at Origin time. I'd trade him if I had him.

Any news on what the Roosters are doing with him or just assume he is out for the one game?

Teddy is gone for me, but that has more to do with Hynes than Teddy.
