NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 41

Lomax v Dearden is a tough call. Personally I'm leaning towards Dearden because he's 1) a half and 2) could get decent kick metres next to Milford. He is more of a controlling half than Nikorima is so hopefully can relieve some of the kicking pressure off Milf and let the latter play his natural running game a bit more.

Lomax's position in the side is still up in the air I reckon and a 25 with a try and TS isn't great.

He was on the wing wasn't he??

Going to try this Uppy-Downy thing:

Captain Fifi up vote
Captain Batman down vote

I reckon Garner starts. Bit if doubt around Marshall according to Madge which means matto is going to 5/8 if Marshall is ruled out leaving an edge open.

He was but half his scores from a try and TS is still crap. The Dragons tend to go to Pereira's wing way more too so Lomax will find it difficult (like Rava has) to score well.

Good call.  I think I will keep Garner.  MCK back next week is a concern though

Who's everyone throwing the C on this week?

I'll be trying my hand with master bateman. Bit nervous taking it off Fifi . .

Clifford's out?

Saw a rumour that he's in serious doubt. Will try and find which of clarkey, mole, injury updates etc it was from. They said possibly Asiata

I’ve got captain Cook but I’m a bit worried. Might throw it on Smithy.

Shouldn't he be more involved at centre?
Or is he not playing at centre?

I have it on Bateman atm but not sure that's the greatest idea given he will be on kikau. Kikau both giveth and taketh away points as he loves a TB but also a MT. Risk it for the biscuit I guess and will be fun to watch those 2 go at it

Makes sense?

Gillett > Lomax leaves 420k

You've talked me into keeping Gillett.

He can put et on the edge also but I think it'll be Garner if Benji is ruled out.

Wow, no offence to the kid, but Clifford out would be pretty awesome news. Hope he’s okay, but also hope he is out.

Macca is a very popular trade out target this week. Anyone left who thinks he’s going to kill it tonight and finally live up to what we hoped for, in terms of fantasy score? Or is it just me? For a variety of reasons, I just see him delivering the goods, finally.

He spent the last 13 minutes in the halves (or at least closer to the middle of the park) after Hunt went off and got a fair few tackles in that little stint

Captain Cook after the post SI made yesterday.

Won't he be up against Whitehead?

I'm swapping him to Mahoney.

Is Mahoney in your end of year team?

Nah Bateman right against Kikau left I think. I think Bateman did however play the second half at left centre last week but only because of injury.
