2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 57

Can't believe I'm considering Isaiah Papalii in and never again Brabbey. Papa 46 avg in 80 min games priced at 36. Brabbey cheap cashout that could surprise in one off

@ nrl physio - D. Walker suffered a partial dislocation of knee cap & Manly hope he'll be fit by round 18. If minimal ligament damage then recovery is 1-3 weeks.

I think I'll keep DCE now.

There was a nasty elbow from a Filipino first, then the elbow from the Aussie in retaliation, then all hell broke loose, turned into a street gang fight.

Haha the Aussie went down like Neymar or any other big name footballer at this World Cup.
It was a push and the elbow has been raised but the Aussie is heading to the floor long before it gets near his head.

The Aussie however caught him bloody good. Like watching origin in the old days.

It was pretty horrid seeing the guy being attacked on the ground and the punches to the back of the head.

Gotta commend Norwood, he was one of the few who acted anything near professional.

What about that photo of the non-player getting Sobey.
Seemed like the only punches that connected were on guys being held or not seeing it coming.

After his outing last week, what does everyone feel about Niukore?

In terms of trades - Jensen to Tolman, too lateral?

57 avg 3 games Walker started half before last. Not sure how no Walker is a good thing. DCE no missed tackles last game and only -2 in negatives and only 37. Was considering selling last week and running SJ Arey.

DCE's involvement last week was a little odd. It seemed like Tommy T was running the show, DCE sat out on the right hand side alot in attack and didn't come in demanding the ball.

The Bonzos won’t make the 8.

Souths flogged the Cowboys again, even with the refs aiding the QLDers as usual.

Souths are your Premiers. Get on, but gamble responsibly.

6 points clear of the Raiders, Titans and Tigers with 9 weeks to go... I think we'll be ok.

We won't win the premiership, but the Rabbits are looking very strong for another shot at it.

The most amazing thing about the basketball was the Philippines players taking a selfie afterwards.

And that the game continues until Philippnes only had 1 player left because everyone else had been ejected/fouled out.

Thank you - long time listener, first time caller!

I have 7 left, so figured if I made 3 or 4 this week it'd leave me in a relatively good position for the home run to cover any injuries.

Brisbane are clear favourites, and you'd expect them to make it. But Tigers get a free 2 points this weekend. And if Titans can beat the Broncos it will be a 4 point gap.

Tigers look shot and won't make it, but I wouldn't be surprised if they dangle the carrot of mathematical possibility in front of their fans for a few more weeks.

Edited.

Soooo.....how bout dem bunnies aye!?

Pick two for the run home:

Taupau/JTurbo/Farah

Atm im leaning towards JTurbo and Farah

lol

you're the only wanker

I'd probably pick Taupau and Farah from those three, but its a tough split. Farah could lose mins to benji/liddle as well.

I'm more worried that by going into Rd19 I'll possibly have two trades left

Finding it hard to choose between Holland and Lewis.

Hollands DPP surely has to be the clincher? Even at the 60k premium on Lewis?
