NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 33 - Don't listen to Your Guts, they have Sludge for Brains

I'm hoping he's taking a backseat early in the game and letting a Lussick who knows he's not playing 80m do the early hard work. Can see Hopgood playing big minutes and getting a lot more involved later.

Eels were still in the match at half time last week, but it must be said across the board that they look quite different, not playing in 35 degree warmth. Didn't seem to trouble the Dolphins, so it's no excuse, but it seems apparent.

Nice Gutho

Whenever you're ready to touch the ball at any point, Turbo, fucking hell

I hope so, I wouldn't be concerned if he was a 70-80 minute player like most other locks, but maybe he will get more minutes tonight.

Whether it has any effect long term, is yet to be seen, but publicly calling them out for basically being soft was always going to get a response of sorts imo

Community team traded him out this week, so there's a bunch of people around the site who weren't fans of him

Yeah not surprising given they have thr Bye next week. I’m just curious as to whether they held or not

Lussick (and Levi) is Schroedinger's fantasy scorer. He accrues points fine if you aren't thinking about it. But as soon as you start watching his score, all fantasy output stops

Because of the City of Compton song? I was hearing that thinking wtf are they playing that in Manly? Or anywhere, in Australia, during the footy.

Is Turbo going to shit the bed worse than May and Liddle? Did they mistake Gutho injury issues for Turbo?

Gutho getting the goal kicking is a nice bonus
