NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 23

Jarrow vs Fifi vs Kapow for captaincy is doing my head in a bit. Might just go Nikora.

Thoughts on trading Morgan out and just running with the rookies?

I hate having to make a choice between the two and I reckon I'll get it wrong most times.

I went the other way, scrapped Morgan and added 2 solid mid rangers for consistent scoring.

Interesting numbers, I agree Booze. A couple things on that though. 1) the outlier boosts that C average quite a bit. 2) sample size still not that great and so I do wonder if it would be fair to say that despite the stats would it still be fair to assume there will likely be a decline in output. I mean over a long time frame how many players have maintained their fantasy output when moving from 2RF to C when they are 80 min 2RFs?

34pts avg if you take away that outlier score.
I am a sharks fan too, but where has this been posted as nothing I can find on the forums or news articles?
Is this based on some players not training and assumptions being made?

Some of these things snowball the more that people comment on it, and while it is certainly possible I am not going to worry about it.
I am not saying we should ignore some random facebook person, but I work on facts over rumours especially when I am making team decisions

If Lafai is out would Lomax get a good dig? His Centre stats are pretty good and would be on the dragons attacking edge. surely he isn’t too far away from replacing rava or even Aitken?

Think I would then be in love with my 17, but no HOK cover (just Mahoney running the show), still playing Keighran/Brown roulette and 18-21 of Rava, Garrick, Sivo. Not sure if worth getting to guns for a combined 250k discount?

I would say most people are playing the budget half roulette weather it be in the 13 of for the final bench place. Just the way it is at the moment in the early rounds.

I'm going Fifita, mainly so that every time he runs over the top of Morgan I get his +6 to make me feel better about the -2.

My trades:


Host ---> Waddell. Not sold on Host and his inconsistency/job security? I can't ignore a second rower scoring nine points. I think Waddell has the talent to take a starting spot at some stage (potentially, not definitely) and will still score OK off the bench in the meantime.

Edwards ---> Burns. I can't leave Burns out of my team the way he's going and Edwards is my only real option to trade out. I could do Ravalawa to Burns but that leaves me only $11k in the bank and I feel Rava is going to have a break out game in the next week or two and anyone who sells him is going to regret it.

Team for the week

Cook (c)
Fifita, Lawrie
Garner, Arrow, Waddell
Cleary, Morgan
Bird, Bateman
CNK, Burns, Ravalawa

Mahoney, Tolman, Murray, Nikora

Two weeks in a row with this shit. How about some manners? And more than one post a week just asking for BEs? The nerve of it all, topped off by asking for a sticky thread when there's literally no need for one.

We don't even know if Xerri is even playing. Hypotheticals

Is Nick Meany an option this week.

More of a watch for a week mate. Dogs backs have a big no go sign on them
