NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 43 - Measles

Another fiddy from my man Katoa. What a machine.

Damn Hughes.. was hoping to pick you up cheaper after the bye

Fa'alogo more poor decsions. Pass the ball, lad!

You would think a guy like Fa’alogo would break more tackles, but he’s just so incredibly small that even his insane speed isn’t enough to turn his diminutive frame into any kind of force. He goes for the gaps but defenders can hook him with a pinky finger.

Pretty happy with 38 for Fa'alogo tbh

Will take a 40 from Wishart, especially forgetting he was up against Olakau’atu

413/8 and all of my outside backs and shitto's (minus Iro) have played. Looking forward to seeing what chaos I wake up to tomorrow morning

Good night for new recruit Hughes

He looks good but raw.

Draws defenders to create an overlap then tries to go himself.
Runs towards a potential gap then does his silly jump in the air giving defenders time to adjust.
Doesn't seem to look for support when he makes half a break.

His TA was a nice subtle double pump so hopefully see more touches like that in the future rather than going for the hero plays.

Intending on captaining him through origin period, it's going to be a roller coaster ride.

Nice one for pulling the trigger early. I wanted to but the bye and the high BE put me off. Got pretty close anyway

Can I just say fuck Tommy Talau

No

Not sure what I've done to appease the fantasy gods, but not immediately kicking me in the nuts for trading Blore to Hopgood last week is much appreciated.

5/296 with everyone except Plath in action tomorrow. Probably take Shoes 22 for Matto, not really worth gambling on Tago unless someone else is ruled out I think.

Andrew Johns just said on ch9 that he's hearing that Hynes may not play tomorrow night.

Brave to say that before Hopgood plays

Tricky still in the 19... Is alarming

Fifi VC and Mikaele points to come in I could live with it

I thought it may have been for Atkinson but guess not.

He's like first-season Walsh, with time he'll pick the right option more often.
