2017 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 27

There's more bad news for the Cowboys with Lachlan Coote missing training due to pain in his calf, after appearing to hurt it last week.
The issue is to do with the scar tissue around the injured area, and not a strain or tear of the calf itself.
Coote is hopeful to train on Friday, but does run a risk of re-tearing his calf.


Hopefully Kalyn Ponga gets a run......................

Hess also listed as being back round 6 or 7 with concussion.

My team is fucked if all this rings true.

Not confident on BT, but might not have a choice.

Also, too late to trade in CHN? Might trade him in for Hess.

I'm no cow but Ray has been absent from the Cowboys ISP teams lists since the start of the year, I don't know why or what has happened to him

Hess has Wests at home so could go large.

When you see CHN named to start again after you didnt trade him in last round as you thought JFH/Carty would be back this week

further more on Ray Thompson, he played off the bench 3 times in rounds 21, 23 and 24 and played 130 minutes scoring 80 points (which included 1 try with associated line break) therefore has a ppm of 0.615

Sione named. Yates on the extended bench..

No fisher harris. CHN starting

Frawley & Farah both named on their respective benches

CHN starting. Im now less nervous about my Smat CHN cash grab, hopefully he gets a few more in the coming weeks. $$$$

No JFH or Carty on extended bench means CHN might appear in my VSDT and SC teams too.

Farah named, James Roberts named.

KNiko in 18 with reports he'll play first grade this week.
Gurgess in 18
Coote in doubt, Ponga in 14?

Ivan Cleary has decided the Tigers 17 is pretty good as is, and has elected for no changes as yet

Hampton replaces Granville at Hooker (broken leg out for up to 6 weeks)
DPP HLF/HK and 143k (21 BE)

Looking at the bench, looks like he will play a lot of minutes
May be a cash out option, will have to do homework but this jumped out at me

Bodene named too.

After trading him in last week, don't want to trade him straight out again, but am concerned about injury.

Ponga number 14???

Yates to CHN seems like a goer.

Cook is such a gamble now.

Hampton is one we can watch to see first. No point rushing in this week.

Yates I will hold for a another week or so, must be the hand injury? Too much cash left in him and not losing anything not playing

What do I do with Brailey having no money for an upgrade?

Regarding Sione, (Day old news) but it just mentions that his welfare will be handled by a concussion 'expert' essentially.

I was just going to post this. Green said it would only be 3 weeks though so it can't be a bad break. Also Hess named on bench again but will they do the late inclusion like last week.
Also Turner named at prop for the Bunnies. That's a strange pick.

Find money. You knew this day was coming.

If desperate give Hampton a try
