NRL Fantasy 2018 Thread Part 23

Hard to believe that those of us with Kodi aren't as stressed about halves for now.

He's only gotten better each week after the 14, then 42, 47 and 52.

Hopefully he continues improving by 5 points each week from here on out

Who would have thought during preseason that Kodi would have been a better selection over Croft.

What is the better HLF pairing?

a) Thurston & Townsend (one trade to get this)

or

b) DCE & Maloney (two trades to get this)

<-- This guy.

But then I succumbed to the thought of Croft bagging a 60 week 1 and having to move mountains to bring him in..

Still can't understand how FailHub priced him so high with only 4 games.. Around 350k above base?

Most of us still bought him though..

Being somewhat generous, I'd expect about 90 combined from both.. But option A doesn't have Maloney and only costs 1 trade.

Isn't it because he averaged somewhere between 40-50 last year?

Seems like a fair pricing

What clubs do you reckon would be chomping at the bit to have a guy like Nofo in there team?

Rabbits maybe

Knights

Any chances Raiders have a complete overhaul? Mordikai, Naden Knight and Kennedy could get their chances.

I think Papalii to prop with Tapine, Whitehead and Bateman in the second row

He averaged 55, 220 points from 4 games.

A player at 212k scoring a 60 straight up would go up around 57k. Another 3 games with lower breakevens would see the price rises jump, but I don't see how an average of like 85k per week is possible.

Plus I thought they get discounted for having so few games anyway.

Ripen them for there next club then ?

Early mail on fox sports has ARey returning and coach likely to put Doueihi on the bench, coach saying so himself.

Bj to the car park, wighton to centre Cotric to fb abbey to wing.

Austin and Sezer in halves. Havili in starting hooker.

When Havili is benched, Sezer to hooker, whitehead to centre wighton to halves.

Might not be as attacking but wighton and whitehead are two of the teams best defenders. So maybe won’t leak as many points. Probably won’t score any either.

I think Austin will be back but there’ll be a host of changes

60k short of carty to Townsend.. Don't really want BBQ ahh

I did. I made a post that said Niko would turn into a top HB under Bennett. He is an improver and definitely worth consideration.

Ah, no.

Easy for me to suggest as I don’t own him

He was priced according to the same formula mist players are. Last year's average with 3% discount for every game less than 10 games played.

Priced very cheap compared to potential, just couldn't replicate his 2017 form (except in the WCC, which doesn't count)

Not even that, he is one of their best defenders if not the best, he'd be a waste in the centres.
