2017 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 46

I was considering Cotric to Tommy Turbo when he returns but now I'm wondering if Sione should make way.  
They're both averaging exactly the same just about. Upgrading one would just leave me stuck with the other.

The way they are looking, I'm thinking about keeping Cotric over SMat.

Haha never heard of her

Fuck didn't realise BJ was only just over the $250,000 mark....

Last punt I took on an underperforming gun at around that $$$ has worked out okay with Semi

I'm really considering spending 100K and upgrading Ponga to Rapa. Shit byes though but fuck this guy must play fantasy, surely.

Exactly why I'm doing what I'm doing

Keeping Cotric at CTR, dumping Sione for Leilua to partner him..

Might be sideways in terms of points, but the $ gain is too good to pass up.

Cotric might make way for Aitken to finish the season, not due back until Rd 18 with a 79 BE.

Pretty confident SMat will outscore Cotric over rest of season (especially including extra bye), and that's really the only calculation you have to make if you're definitely keeping one of them to the finish.

Random stat.

Widdop average from rounds 1-7: 51.1
McInnes average from rounds 1-7: 55.7
McInnes average from round 9-13 (Without Widdop): 58

Didn't include round 8 because that was the round Widdop went off injured.

I only looked into this because I'm probably dong Friend - McInnes next week

Cotric over Smat

Does anyone know how Lolohea has scored previously when playing in the halves? Any insight into what can be expected going forward would be fantastic. Thanks.

I'm sure TFBB can answer here.

He never played there for the Warriors. It was f/b or wing.

Really? Wow. I was sure he had played there previously for the Warriors. Maybe he can be a solid 40+ scorer after all?

Averaged 37.8 from 5 games in 2015 (kicked goals in this time period, scored 1 try)

1 game last year for 60 points (scored a try, didn't kick goals)

He's not going to get 50+ every week though. I'd be wary about chasing last week's scores, and be clear what you want from him. He's not really good enough for a final 17 player, and probably won't make enough cash for an easy upgrade to a true gun. But he's certainly got better short term prospects than someone like KNik

He definitely played a few games in the halves
