2017 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 62

Should be a high scoring game involving Tigers and Panthers so hopefully plenty of points for the backs

I have a back three of Teddy, Edwards and Mansour. All I ask for is minimum 50s haha. Would be nice if one can go 70+

So is that two or three people whose teams can't make the eight and/or have run out of trades and fake ragequit the forum until early next year?

Anyway I'm 617 with the following to play:

Taupau
Cleary
Pearce
Dedwards
Tedesco

If any are last minute exclusions then it will warrant a trade or I'll get Chanel's 12 as AE

Really tempted to burn a trade and go Mansour > Watson. Gets rid of a potential game changing matchup in my h2h semi final. Watson I think will finish the season really well.

So torn

Will basically mean my opponent has Lolohea, LBrown and 87 points vs DCE, TTurbo, Teddy and Edwards

Bugger Watson is HLF/HOK, my mistake. Well guess I just have to hope. 

3 Rd averages have me winning by 20 points.

I'm hoping Mansour can have a big game today. I'm talking 70+, probably needing 80 really.

I'm with ya there.

Is Taupau > JTurbo stupid?

Yes

Fair call

615 with Taupau, Lolo, Turbo, Cleary and Edwards to go.

713 with DCE, Cleary, TTurbo and Lolohea to come.

I'm back in the top 200 in live rankings and want to see if I can stay there.

Go Milchy!

Hopefully Taupau and Edwards go big so I can beat you in L51

633 with Taupau, SLane, Cleary, Edwards and Lolohea to come.

Since I've seen all of yours

610 with taupau, dce, Cleary, marsters, tturbo and Edwards. Hopefully at least a solid 8xx score

That's right, DPP not likely for Hunt with Bennett planning to use him as an impact player of the bench after the first 20 mins for the next games. Pretty smart coaching by Bennett.
Would have been a nice option having Ben Hunt available in the HOK position at the start of next season

Anyone keen to do a poster profile today?

What happened to Brian Kelly?

He is shit.

This was on the Manly website.....................

In team news, Brad Parker replaces Brian Kelly in the centres.
“Brian has a few things to work on in his game,’’ said Manly Coach Trent Barrett.
“Being so young, he has done a tremendous job and played in every NRL game this year straight out of the 20s,’’.
“I’m not expecting Brian to be out of the side for too long.”
