For him to stay in my team he will need to post 40+ scores for the next two weeks. Warriors and sharks. If he doesn’t score 40+ in those games, he is later Mitchell!!my tv broke wrote:

He is just too hard to work out.
25 tackles in 38 mins week one.
45 tackles in 55 mins week two, coming off the bench.
52 tackles in 42 mins week three
Priced at 42, not much value if he scores similarly to the first two weeks.
One of the most underpriced guns going if he replicates his last game more often.

I said this a few days ago-I had him in my Draft team last year and was pissed every time he was named to start, NOT on the bench. Just one of those few players that score better on average from the bench.

I really want to bring in Alvaro, but I just can't with those minutes. Parra usually have a strong forwards bench and with Mau, Moeroa and Brown usually playing big minutes they're is not enough minutes for Alvaro so I can see a few games where Alvaro only gets abt 40 mins to score low 30's............

He really doesn't miss a huge amount of games these days to be fair
Yeah I tried to look up how many games he's played the last few seasons, then realised stats centre is a POS.
Thanks to wikipedia, games for the season:
2017 - 17
2016 - 17
2015 - 22
2014 - 18
2013 - 10
2012 - 17
and so on.. I'd avoid.

I love this reasoning. Alvaro is scoring really well, but he is scoring too quickly for you to care about. Better to get someone who acquires his points slowly. The anti-PPM choice

Dugan is a 45-50 point scorer at fullback, priced at 35.
BE of 36, its a good time to bring him in if you are keen.

Re: 2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 20
Anyone else think Mbye was rather fortunate to have Panthers missing their tackles for no reason? Seemed to always be guys in front of him and they just fell off.
https://www.nrl.com/news/2018/03/23/bulldogs-stave-off-panthers-to-notch-first-win/
First try was the infamous Maloney taken out by the blocking player that was still awarded a try.
2nd try, 2 players should have tackled him at the same time, but somehow bounced off without Mbye doing anything special.
Scored him lots of points with multiple tackle breaks, 2 line breaks and 2 tries in these 2 plays, but in reality shouldn't have got anything for them.

Double trading for the 3rd week in a row
Nicholls --> Rochow
Carty --> TMK
Feel these are sound moves? Would then have 'most' the cows and barring injuries can hold tight for at least a few weeks (heres hoping).

Inconsistent minutes are a killer, whenever someone has more time on the park, there is extra chances for a better scoring output
Sometimes all the play goes down the middle so smaller minutes for a guy like Alvaro might not matter because he can rack up base stats, but the week later in limited minutes penalites and the ball getting moved the edges limits his involvement so he scores poorly
At least with consistent larger minutes those spells above, don't produce spud scores because he has an extra 10 minutes to get some points on the board

Re: 2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 20
Haha some players score better in small minutes then start to lose points the longer they stay out tired.
As long as they get 40 minutes consistently then you can rely on them.
It’s the 15 min, 35 min, 10min, 60min players that kill you
Classic example is TPJ or NAS last year and now this year

It was worse than I thought haha. Those numbers would be all games started, including games left injured and probably some finals games. He missed a game last year because he was late to the bus and missed some origins due to injury.

He scored 41 & 45 in the previous 2 rounds which is a more accurate gauge on his scoring.

Yes that is how I am justifying not getting him in.

Purely comes down to time on the park for Dugan, if he remains out there at fullback he should average considerably more than his current price, but is injury history can and should play the largest part in whether anyone takes the plunge with him

Re: 2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 20
On a week to week basis, minutes played are not necessarily a useful gauge of anything.
In a 15 minute stint, someone could have 7 defensive sets or 2, depending on how many penalties, tries, errors happen in that part of the game.
And many players don't benefit from longer game time. Nathan Brown is a good example, his 60 minute scores are pretty much the same as his 80 minute scores.

Half your starting 13 were Guns last year mate It could be killing it very soon.
I like the trade, with your 500k bank that gets you close to 700k and potentially the same points.
Let Iapalli rot there for loophole purposes.
If you are feeling brave you could upgrade Carty to Matterson and still have 450 odd k in the bank for next week. It's a risk with Matterson but the rewards are good if he continues to start. If you want to hold Carty then maybe upgrade Sao, still leaves you close to 400k next week (if my maths is right).
You could also fuck Nicholls off instead as will need injuries to start again you'd think, just eats even further into your bank is all.
