NRL Fantasy 2019 thread part 7

mango wrote:Hi everyone,

Almost wasn't going to play this year but decided to put a team together and see what happens. Probably will only play for fun this year and not join any leagues.

C. Smith
A. Fifita, TPJ
J.Arrow, C Murray, M. Gillett
M.Morgan, D. Brown
K. Capewell, J. Bird
C.Watson, D.Edwards, Z.Lomax

A.McCullough, J.Stimson, W.Egan, L. Burr
T.Fuimaono, B.Nikora, A.Kieghran, A.Hopoate

Pretty happy with the forward pack and I think that there is plenty of value in Gillett, hopefully he won't be lacking in confidence after his injury. Not happy about Lomax being in my starting 17 but no other option really. If Mahoney is confirmed as an 80min starter I'll downgrade Macca to him and use that cash to strengthen some other positions.

I really wanted to start with Teddy as well and as much as I tried it left me too light at the back. Not much cash left in the bank either, around 10k which isn't much for emergency upgrades.

Thoughts would be appreciated.

Parra play the 2nd last game of the round. If you wait for their team list before making a decision, there may not be many options for you if team isn't named how you'd like.

Going to have to have a bit  of a gamble on people like him and Egan (hopefully we can have some confidence in what final team will look like to make decision easier)

Cleary is better, in a better team, with an edge of Kikau Blake Mansour that looks a rich scary.

Pearce is slightly cheaper and doesn't play origin. Unless Cleary is injured, in which case Pearce is better as Cleary is injured.
