2019 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 2

Being basement price, starters and halves (see plenty of ball) you'd be silly not to have them at least somewhere in your team. CHT looks like a bit of a ball runner and being beside Green who generally doesnt do much kicking should get a fair chuck of kick metres. Also, with RTS more than likely needing to run the team, CHT will have him running inside him all game long looking for that short pass LBA. Plus Lil Pap and Tohu outside him there is plenty of potential there for him. Downside - a bad run of losses could force the coach to try his hand at Keirghan or Perham.

Not sure on Dylan Brown haven't seen much of him.

I didn't realise there was another option.

From what I saw of CHT, he’s a very attacking half. He’s not going to be kicking much. Just my opinion also but I didn’t get the impression he was NRL ready.

Never heard that turn of phrase Milchy?

I was just trying to make a joke Alfie.

Both Moses and Green kick a lot, so I have some concerns over the base stats for Brown/CHT.

Depending on what other cheapies emerge they'll probably be in my team somewhere, but preferably not as scorers.

One thing i am thinking is i would rather run Morgo and a cheap hlf in order to give me more balance in my HK, FRF, 2RF as it seems there will be a fair amount of cheapies arising in the CTR/WFB/HLF sections this year and not so much in the HK, FRF, 2RF.

Just IMO, please dont hate me

Fensom’s been training the house down. I’ve had another look at Mahoney. Here’s draft 1 lads. No copying.

Not bad Rabs. Nice foundations there with some options to tinker before seasons start. Love the halves pairing. Short on spare cash >.<

Ok rabs I'll give it a go. Fensom, will he even be in the team? Taupau will start the year the highest price he's ever started as far as I'm aware. Matterson concussion concerns? I like the Pearce pick, I haven't figured out how to fit him in. Macca too I've already commented on. Munster? If he's fullback or take him anyway? Moga looking at assault charges and has stiff competition at centre. Will Ponga go as well in the halves? Probably, but a wait and see for me. Staggs - take him if he's on the bench or only if starting? Cartwright are you taking him as a non-player, on the bench or only if starting? Just some random thoughts to generate discussion. Cheers.

How would people rank Vaughan, Ofa, LAM, Tolman, TPJ and Twal/Eisenhuth (if one of them starts at lock)?

Where are you going to fit Nathan Merritt in for the origin period?

James Segeyaro has confirmed he will be playing Rugby League in 2019 and is not retiring. Segeyaro confirmed his future is to be announced soon.

Rabs what did you say about Mahoney and Pritch yesterday?

change of view?

(RUMOUR from some FB page)
Talk going around that Euan Aitkon is on the outer at the Dragons. This wouldn't be the first time with speculation that he was on the outer back in 2015.

Mary is likely to play Lomax and Lafia in the centers and give Mikaele Ravalawa his debut with Jordan Pereira on the other wing

Eels, Panthers, Bulldogs, Knights? #cashcowwatch

Crazy how quickly things changed for Aitken. He was the form centre in the first half of the season, narrowly missed out on origin selection. His form faded for the second half and all of a sudden lomax might start and as you say he might be ousted

My vote is Knights or Panthers, both team still have quite a bit of cash to spend from what I am aware and in desperate need of a rake.
