2017 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 60

N. Brown is now becoming a legitimate captaincy option playing 80 minutes.

That win basically cements our first finals spot since 2009! Coming into tonight I was worried we'd miss the 8 altogether, now I'm thinking we're legitimately top 4 chances. What a difference a game can make.

I know there is a few Broncos supporters on here, so I hope you ain't feeling too awful. The no-try call aside, we definitely got the rub of the green and a few 50/50 calls tonight.

That said, definitely our best performance in years. Our forwards showed up in a way they haven't in forever. Would have been difficult for anyone to take us tonight at home tonight.

GO PARRA!

Parra clearly wanted it more. I don't even care if we didn't get the rub of the green, our second half performance makes me sick at how fucking shit it was. Norman and especially Moses shat all over Milford and Hunt, it was embarrassing.

Dream run home will give them confidence.  Only 1 top 8 team I think.

That's some relieving news on NBrown. I didn't look anything really seious, but you just never know.

I think Nathan Brown is okay;



Just have to hope he doesn't get pinged for the high shot.

It was a bit high and warranted a penalty, but not sure any further punishment is warranted

Edwards shoulder to the head of a player on the ground is the one that should have been put on report

I agree just a penalty is sufficient. I don't see him getting done for it really. Edwards, well we've all shared our thoughts on him.

203/4, captain to come. Dropped a couple of hundred spots but I'm thinking there would have been a lot of top teams with Mannering or Gal as their captain.

Self imposed exile. I'm back. Not letting a few lefty wankers win. Climate change is a hoax.

Great to see the Bonzos get flogged last night. Their season is over. Straight sets again.....nothing for over a decade and nothing likely in the next either. It's beautiful to watch.

222 from 4, no c, but McCullough and no trades means I play either Scott, Fui or Jensen for the run in. Any more injuries and goodnight Irene.

That plus I notice I always drop rank after a Broncos game which suggests there's a few Broncos in teams. Currently 286/6 with captain Crichton to play. As a D. Edwards owner his under scoring didn't really upset me but RTS did. RTS was on 29 at half time & scores 6 points in the 2nd half. Also I feel sorry for those who purchased Fifita. As an owner he's been scoring below average since origin which is not what I expected.

Do you have a second hooker?

Good to see you back mate but I didn't realise you exiled yourself. I'm sure if Taupau & Fifita who I both own had Trump as their manager he would make them great again.

The other Macca.

222/3 for me (captain Gal) and have slipped about 100 spots in the rankings. Looking to gain some of that back in the next 2 days

Not sure if I'm imagining it, but there seems to be a bigger variance of team numbers played at this stage than normal.

any news on where hayne will play will be welcome. i think i would start smats over hayne at centre, but it is the tigers hes up against so its a tough call

I can't recall where I read it but there was talk that Hayne could switch to center with Roberts at fullback and Elgey slotting back into the starting side.

yeah thats what i heard yesterday, and its the same news today reading from their website http://www.titans.com.au/news/2017/07/29/rnd_21_coach_s_last_.af_news.html.

dont think we will get any news till at least 4pm today which is after the knights game.

Juat the Broncos again. So as long as we don't drop easy games, should be good finish to the year.
