2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 40

So Will Smith (481k hlf/wfb) will be at hooker for the Eels with no bench hooker but King is in the reserves. This is a bit of a left field selection but it does intrigue me.

Panthers have 1 Hooker, 1 2RF, 1 prop and 1 Hlf on the bench

Hmm just saw Maloney 40+ BE.

Maybe he should go first and Havili go next week

Nikorima could be a good RD 17 pick up soon. BE 59 and if he stays around his avg he will base out at about 420K

Need some cash generation, but can't look far past trading in Taupau and Fifita... Any decent cows (even mid price range) worth picking up? I'll have to forgo Fifita to do it but will help other upgrades (already have Martin)

Maloney has scored 38+ in 5 of the 6 games he's played without Cleary

I don't know about decent, but I've been looking at:
Watson
Lamb
Brimson
Lane
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Toomaga
Gower
Uate
Rapana
RTS

These are the players with the biggest gap between their current price and their season average. 

A lot of these guys have all played 1 game this season, so its up to you to think if they can maintain that average or not

Name	Avg	Current	Profit
Rhyse Martin	63.0	$284,000	$610,600
Karl Lawton	62.0	$368,000	$512,400
Tyrone Phillips	51.0	$269,000	$455,200
Mahe Fonua	37.5	$294,000	$238,500
Campbell Graham	32.0	$246,000	$208,400
David Gower	42.0	$428,000	$168,400
Mitchell Cornish	29.0	$245,000	$166,800
Scott Sorensen	37.0	$376,000	$149,400
Mason Lino	46.0	$514,000	$139,200
Jonathan Wright	26.0	$242,000	$127,200
Justin Olam	24.0	$221,000	$119,800
Matt Frawley	44.7	$516,000	$118,740

Murray to Arey, or DCE? Both round 13 players, ARey has low a BE, Bunnies are finding form where as Manly are floundering. Gives me an extra $100k in the pocket as well as a bit of a POD. But, injury..

That $100k would go towards upgrading Maloney or Rein to a $700k gun, rather than a sub $650 player.

And what the hell is happening with Arrow? Do we have a time frame?? If it's 2 weeks I'm going Fifi.

Cheers Milch,

I wasn't saying he won't make it, just trying to figure out who goes first out of Maloney/Havili.

One goes this week to Surgess/Taupau most likely Surgess and the other becomes Tolo next week.

What are your thoughts on Brock Lamb?

my tv broke wrote:Pretty concerned about Brimsons job security. Elgey reportedly had a very good game in q cup after being dropped. I think hes rubbish, but there's every chance he comes back in to the team in two weeks time. Especially if the Titans keep losing.

It’s fine if he’s just a cash out which at this stage I would assume him to be.

Only really a worry if he’s needed - ie a lone backup half. Otherwise you’re pretty much just doing your best in the sub 128 cashout stakes. I’m still tempted by Segeyaro simply because the game keeps letting me buy hookers now, and Brailey still a young lad big ask to see our full season of 80mins

Mbye>Martin see how Thompson goes first game if bad can bring in a better WFB ahead of Thompson for Gosi or Sorensen with Katoa in 13?

Alright so after being so certain I’m not trading Arrow out

Campbell Graham and Mahe are intriguing. If bunnies are winning don’t see them changing much when kennar is back

The way debutants are going this year AJB in the starting side over Thompson?

Trading out mbye?

The way debutants are going, Renouf Toomaga is going to score 60 points off the bench this week.

So will Zac LomaX

Lamb or Brimson, how would you seperate them?

Lamb - better job security, main playmaking role, kicks for days. Probably stable 30-40 point scorer. Playing for a tough Knights team who can still win.
AJ - not sure about security. FB ball running half. Basement price. Not sure about kicking but will take lots of runs. 5/8 not a big scoring position for the titans. Probably 25 point avg with the chance of having a higher ceiling.
