NRL Fantasy 2018 Thread Part 35

Seesaw'ing between fifita and matterson. In a vacuum, i prefer fifita. But matterson may suit my team better as i have JMK in my WFB and maloney + mbye in my halves. So, if i had matto i could shift mbye back to wfb and leave JMK out if i need to, without having to trade immediately. (If he gets dropped etc)

Hmmm...

I am in the exact same boat. I have gone with Matterson initially because he makes my team stronger if I put him in the halves (JMK to WFB, Isaako out). Hate passing on Fifita though but Matterson completes my halves.

Captain Cook hasn't let me down yet.

I'm buying at entree price

Thoughts on Guerra?

Cook captain is locked in. At home, no McCullough, in great form, no reason to ditch him as the C.

my stubbornness has probably cost me points this season but i'm sticking with Captain Cam until the wheels fall off

Captain Smith for me boyz. Good luck everyone!

So I didn't realise how close Aitken and Latrell are in price to Dugan. Who would you take from all three.

Also came across some stats to please @MilfordTheMagician on NRL.com today

Broncos are only ranked 10th of the 16 clubs on the Storms "bunnies" list with 30 losses and 14 wins. Their 30% win ratio is nowhere near the worst in the league- the Storms biggest bunnies? THE BUNNIES! 24 losses and 4 wins for 14% games won

Only the bulldogs have beaten the storm more often than they have lost (21 wins with 18 losses) and only three other teams are higher than 40% of wins (Sea Eagles, Warriors, Roosters)

So it is not that the Broncos always get pantsed by the Storm, it is pretty much the norm for the whole comp.

Hurrah!!

Who to drop to EMG out of Soro/Su'a/Gosie

Ive had latrell since the start and perfectly happy with his scoring but he gives me the shits to watch. You just want him to get involved more. Makes one or two big plays per game for 20 odd points a play then saunters out on the edge for the rest of the game.

Nice stats. I'd like to know our record against them since the 06 GF though, I think we've won like 3 times since lol.

Captain Cook for me

Really considering Fifita as captain. I hate having a captain that spends big minutes on the bench but I have a feeling he goes large

Up Up Cronulla!

Should be a tight game today (Based on history) so reckon Matterson is worth a captain punt.

Cook or Fafita as Captain for me - not sure yet.

I've captained Cook the last 2 weeks & the Broncos without the tackling machine Macca could be vulnerable through the middle. However I might go with CS9 this week against an under strength Warriors team with no SJ & Harris.

Basically that same under strength Warriors team that beat the Dragons last week though...

Didn't realise matto has a BE of 22 might jump on and derail everyone haha
