NRL Fantasy 2024 Part 60 - Take your downdates on the Chin

I do need a WFB and Hammer with no byes is a nice option but yeah his base does concern me a little, he averaged 43 last year but has obviously been killing it with tries this year, averaging 1.4 a game which is pretty nuts.

He could keep it up, the draw is ok, but if the tries dry up he's not really gun level.

The thing about last year is he was switched to ctr often and even moved about mid game iirc cause phins were so flimsy defensively, which they fixed through recruitment.
Definitely not one for the feint hearted though, without tries the floor can be real low, so I understood why he wasn't popular, just shocked there was practically no ownership at all, I know people like risky punts

Hunting for a gun WFB for this weekend is tough. Was keen on Turbo but would make next week difficult. 

Do I dare turn back to Gutho and his elevated average without Moses?

Taking a punt on Savage as a cash out. <$300k. Seems to score a bit better with Fogarty around. I'd be happy with a 30 average as a back up.

Pity young Panthers fella only available at CTR.

Campbell scoring 40+ in a down game is encouraging. Need a WFB this week and he’s scoring well at half. Quite pricey though

How do you have 1 trade? We just got 8. So is this after three trades this week?

Yes did 4 last week and 3 this week

Young Sharks FB to debut this week. Liam Ison, good reserve grade stats

Yeah, I agree. He’d be perfect to slot in as wfb cover if he was that way inclined.

The other one I’m vaguely interested in is Eel Mulitalo. I thought he looked pretty likely in his debut. Only major issue being that he plays for the Eels, if he’s even named again.

A lot of origin players have been low ownership over the bye period, and we've had plenty of alternatives when it comes to the WFB/CTR position. You can expect HTFs ownership to pick up a bit now, even though most coaches will probably spend their remaining trades on getting the big guns in

Whats up with Kennedy?

Didn’t work for me last time.

Came to the realisation that only DBrown was benefitting. And Eels are crap

1 week suspension for colliding with ref.

Timed labour for the bye just like Mrs. Max King

I got him last week as a cash out, very pleasantly surprised with a 41 with a try. Like you, definitely not expecting that every week but seems to average around 34 with Fogz starting.

Has played every game, so seems *famous last words* relatively Ricky-proof ...
