2016 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 37

Even when he's played well in real life, Brett Stewart has never been a good scorer in fantasy.

So its no surprise his fantasy scores are rubbish when he's out of form

He's made good money but his time could be up now with Tapine being favoured and Paulo joining the club.

Bateman didn't get injured he actually had a good go. he stayed off because ricky is experimenting as usual. can't blame him with so many damn forwards to pick from.
I reckon the unpredictability will continue. And im also wary of how this impacts whitehead. Without his try his score is quite poor. matches his 39 from last week...

113 from just Parcell and BJ and dropped too.

Is there any reason why Parcell can't be a keeper?

If DCE didn't get injured Parcell probably would have had a rest when Koro came on.

If injuries/form/whatever means that he can stay as 80 minute hooker, then he can stay in your team.

He's definitely in my team until Manly's next bye, then I'll reasses

Team will be, only relevant players:

Parcell, Smith (r)
Graham (c), Surgess, Tolman (r), Grant (r)
Whitehead, Thompson, Mannering, Taylor (r), Carty (r)
Milf (vc), Barba
Holland, Lolohea,
Munster, Mitchell

So will give Smith the r if he plays and get Grants AE this week, also if Milf goes huge can then swap Grant and Graham and get Graham as an AE and double Milfs points???

Am i right??

If Milf goes big your AE needs to be Graham, if you have anyone else on the bench that plays, they will be your AE and you'll get nothing for the captain you subbed out.

This is the correct answer for any questions around the Raiders pack. Although I'm not sure its Ricky experimenting, as I think he isn't trying to find the right formula to repeat week after week but rather see's our pack as something he can change each week or even as the game progresses to what he thinks is needed at the time.

I was waiting to see how long into the second half he'd stay on for before he got subbed for Koro but obviously got excited when DCE didn't come back. Then Lyon going down, it's just hard to see the team staying fully fit, and the more Koro has to play other positions, the more I think Barrett will keep Parcell as an 80 minute hooker. I may have just gotten over excited as players were going down haha. Time will tell but will definitely reasses too if anything changes. He looks good for round 15 though which was what I was hoping for.

You have 5 reserves listed there. So that will not be your team (I think you realise this when you say you'll get Grant's AE, but I'm just making sure)

But if Milf goes big,  you can sub grant for Graham. 
Then have Smith, Tolman, Taylor, Carty as reserves. 
And Graham will be your AE (providing none of the players not listed play this week) 
Also be aware of a potential late Curtis Scott inclusion to stuff you up.

Fuck, Parcell losing 4 points.

Won't see me disagreeing. Out and out gun. Papa is the other guy who won't be threatened, having a big year.

Like wolfking said, this isn't quite set up right I don't think mate. You needed to C a player in a position that had at least 1 NPR. I may be wrong because I may be hammered, but I don't think it works?

Dam those updates came in fast.

Whitehead up to 60
Leilua up to 52

Nice updates

Nice 9 point update for BJ.

Ramesh and Sandeep got their rosters right this week and updates are in at quick time:

Croker 27
BJ 52 dollars
Rapana 44
Hodgson 58
Whitehead got what was owed 60  
Bateman 25

TTurbo 44

Certainly did. Making up for last week's tardiness.

Great game. 229/4.

Anybody else have DCE + BLaw?

It hurts...
