NRL Fantasy 2019 thread part 7

I didn't watch the game but reading the last few pages of comments is almost just ss good.  You lads are awesome.

On ya Wolfie, legend mate. Lewis Soosomea is another possibility for the number 3. Is there anything written that says it was Herbert SI? I've narrowed it down to Tom Ale, Lewis Soosomea and your man Herbert

Wasn't Herbert at the Dragons? I vaguely remember seeing his name there before

He was, surprised they let him go.

The warriors have this listed on their website

3. Herbert
22. Tom Ale
17. Soosemea

Sweet so it was Herbert. He was bloody impressive, surely gets a start over Hiku or Kata come round 1

99.9% sure it was Herbert mate. On the Warriors page they had the full number line up, as after 20 minutes I was that impressed with him I started scrambling around the InterWeb trying to find out who he was. When they updated the stream link after the game the numbers list disappeared unfortunately.


Also, when you watch the highlights of that hit on NRL.com they call the guy putting the hit on Drinkwater as Herbert. Drinkwater is pretty small as well, and when they score that try and Chanel Harris Tevita comes in to congratulate them Chanel is taller then the number 3.


I'm actually trying to work out who Number 10 was as well. He was great. They were calling him as Satae but Satae was listed as 8 and no Number 10 was listed. Problem is when I go back to watch the stream he was only in the First Half and the stream replay is showing the full 2nd Half at this stage.

Warriors fans seem to constantly complain about their centers. Do we have a bolter?

He really stood out and it looks like all natural flashy talent. I hate the phrase x factor, but he looks like he has it.

I remember back in the NYC when the roosters played the dragons in the final, Herbert looked really impressive along with Dufty, Manu, Latrell and the rest of those two insane teams. Led the league for tackle breaks and missed tackles that year so hopefully he has improved on his defence since then cos his lateral movement will get him very far in the NRL. He had 17tbs in a game and 14tbs in another game last year playing in the ISP and averaged 47.1. 159.2 metres per game and 5.77 tbs per game as well last year

Something like Roache 50, Tevaga 60, Burr 50 minutes, cash and points to be made all around.

This looks an absolute recipe for disaster.

Why what are your concerns?

Alright guys so I may have lied. I didn’t get the chance to watch the game ???? I’m sorry I have let everyone down! How was everyone game wise and fantasy wise? Not sure if everyone played but out of these guys who played how were they? Croft, Drinkwater, Lil Pap, Lawton, Keighran, Burr, Kamikamika. Anyone else who stood out pushing for a spot in the team?

Kents if you could pop over and have a look at my rate my league thread and provide some feedback/votes in the assistant coach area that would be great. Cheers.

Nice numbers. I can't find him in the Warriors top squad, but looks like they still have a couple to announce to fill out the 30.

Herbert isn't in the game which is a bit weird because I know for sure he was last year

Can’t find my rate my team thread

A lot of feedback when you get a chance to read it over the last few pages. For me:

Drinkwater was great, early jitters but then did everything right bar a last ditch pass into touch at the end.  
I hardly noticed Keighran but I missed the first 10 minutes.  
Burr was solid and looked for work but I can see his Offloads being reigned in by Kearney.
Pap had limited minutes and he didn't do much that I noticed, although he tried to fold a bloke on the ground in half with a shit cunt tackle.
PAtrick Herbert (Warriors 3) was awesome!
Also 10 for Warriors was great, one day I'll find out who he was!!!
