Probably Cook.

Your 14-17 will count towards your score. 18-21 will not (DNPs in your squad will change that later in the year)

Who knows, you'll know on Tuesday mate

NRL.com is predicting McIlwrick to be on bench come RD 1. Mind you Staggs was also on bench a few times last year and never played a minute.

Biggest surprise for me was Nene MacDonald in QLD cup.

Must be further punishment for being late to training I'm assuming. If he isn't named for R1, will probably be GGM or Bowen on the wing

Forget about the newb question - found the details on the NRL Fantasy Guidelines page:

"5.7. INTERCHANGE PLAYERS
Each week you should select 4 Interchange Players. These 4 Interchange Players are designated by priority-order numbers 1 to 4 on your Reserves Bench and denoted as ‘INT’ players.

All 4 Interchange players’ scores count towards your Fantasy total score for that round, subject to potential automatic adjustments for Emergencies. Don’t forget to select your Interchange players via the action buttons, accessible by clicking the ‘…’ at the right-end of their player listing line.

5.8. EMERGENCY PLAYERS
These are players whose priority-order is numbered 5 to 8 on your Reserves Bench. These players do not score any points for your team unless they are required as part of an auto-emergency substitution.

Should any of the players in a team's Starting 17 not take the field (DNP) a player from the Reserves bench will be automatically substituted in, based on the following criteria;"

Considering the above - is it best to have a Fantasy INT that's named to start as opposed to a literal Interchange? For example [Raiders], Royce Hunt over, say, John Bateman?

Thanks Liverpool_Bulldog & StormTrooper96!

Yes basically your team is 17 strong. They should all be starting where possible.

On Nene, as he was suspended for his Trial game for turning up to training late i would say the Q Cup game is pretty much his trial to get him match ready.

I have been hesitant on LAM today but i am thinking if anything he hovers around his average and i can change to next best if i need to. Best case scenario he guns it and gets the minutes and pushes his avg to 50

I've recently gone Taupau/Vaughan. I would like LAM just need a captaincy option other than Arrow

Taupau could start in the 2RF.

Quite keen on my Arrow, Matterson, Murray 2RF.

Hmmmm

Anyone below 677k (Surgess, RTS, Vaughan, Ofa etc) + Garner vs Stimson + Lane

For bench spots. Thoughts?? Given Garner is only limited time I'm probably going to stick with second combination

Like that trio. Have them in one draft of a team.

It’s just you......and other idiots who listen to fake news and aren’t up to date with real world affairs. Carry on though.

I doubt it. Total waste. Cook plays 80.

Fuck it. Back to a Trump avatar, to upset the snowflakes

Chris Lawrence suffered severe fractures to multiple bones in his face (per @MichaelChammas) & after arriving back in Australia today will require surgery. Severe/complex fractures of multiple facial bones can require up to 10-16 weeks recovery (eg Josh Mansour last year) nrlphysio

We'll Garner stays in my team.
I suppose I'd rather keep Matterson as well now.

Poor rowdy. Makes Garner almost a lock in my team pending tlt
