2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 18

The storm have lost all faith in Croft, he won’t even get the ball anymore.
Nail in the coffin for anyone who would give him another week.
Going to have to do something special in the second half simply to break even.....

Smith missing KM also

What a minute that was!

Video ref: "We have a decision.............................................................[must resist urge to say 'Going to the board']"

WTF Smith??

Can't remember seeing a game where one team only has five players in double figures at half-time.

Honestly will never understand the dummy spits over scores before even a half is played 

Smith is on course for....drumroll....a 50-60 and he has been shit

I'd be more concerned over other guns like Munster on 6 or TLolo on 17 Thurston on 12

JT and Smith -18 at HT my god what are you doing to me

Is he? Only remember him kicking once in open play.

Twice, Slater took the ball from dummy half and shifted it to Smith for his second

hehe I wonder if Croft will end the game with a KM stat of one

Welshy with Croft it’s more about how he has simply disappeared in 2018, the more the older guys ignore him the worse he plays.
Dunno what has happened but his confidence has been shattered and is simply going through the motions

Yeah some people wanted to trade Teddy after he scored 29

Yeah pretty happy with a 30 from the captain with an uncharacteristic -8. The old boy still got it!

Croft doing a Luke Brooks. Came into grade labelled as the next big thing and had an absolute blinder of first game. Then went downhill fast and turned to shit.

Fuck Croft, dumped that spud this round!

I was on about the moaning about Smith, if he was having a clean game he would be on 40 odd half time and be getting praised

I would say its part of Storms game plan to take workload/pressure off Croft.

Haven't been following the thread. My thoughts are Hess can bend a line but defence is shit. Lazy mofo.

Let's be fair to Croft, he is replacing a world class 7 in Cronk

Give the kid some time and he will come good, just not* fantasy efficient at present

It is all about money invested verse return. Why keep a player when there is minimal return on the dollar value invested.

While Teddy is a special case if Smith cannot score consistent 60+ the option to sell will be tempting, especially when you take into account the return on investment that Damien Cook is providing.
