NRL Fantasy 2019 Part 47

Even three weeks of 40s would make you some mad scrilla. I think he's worth it and sweating on Tapine isn't the way to think.

Pretty confident ARey will play a lot of players fail to finish training and it was only Wednesday still a few days to go yet, but a cold Canberra night won’t help anyone’s injuries.

Tapine could come back via the bench in the forwards. Ricky I think wouldn't want to start him 80 minutes off the bat.

Saying that, that Martin video makes me want to bring him in too.

Definite possibility. With Papalii playing origin, if Tapine came back in round 12, he might play middle anyway. Lots of different ways things could still work out well for Young I suppose.

Pros and Cons List has helped me decide between them so a vote might help

Upvote for Tedesco, Downvote for RTS

Teddy:
- 700k
- BE 37
- Season average 51.3 thanks to last week. 2018 Average of 53.1
- Likely to miss 3 games without injury
- In a dominant team

RTS:
- 722
- BE 69
- Season average 52.3
- 2018 average 43.7
- Likely to miss 1 game without injury
- Already 1 game back due to hamstring niggle
- Dominant in a poor team. Scores likely to fluctuate with win vs loss

Likely the cheapest I can get teddy for the rest of the season and likely RTS drops this week. Tempted to get teddy this week as H2H is more important to me than overall and wait on RTS. Can't go too wrong with either though.

Does anyone see RTS dropping back to historical average of in the 40s?

Remember that this season, Origin players only miss one extra game (definitely). Obviously the coach may rest them in post origin rounds.

I can't remember what Robinson did last year. Was there are round where he just rested all origin players? Or was that Storm?

EDIT: Looks like last season teddy missed rnd 13 and 17 per bye rounds, and was rested in round 18. So round 18 was when Robinson rested all his origin players and the Roosters still beat the Titans (Sean O'Sullivan's only NRL game).

Both Teddy and Latrell were rested for at least an additional game from what I remember.

@ Ponga - I would go Tedesco mate as he's set & forget. The problem for RTS is when the Warriors are up against the top teams he will be nullified because they will just kick it out of touch similar to how the Knights did when RTS had a quiet game.

Won’t they miss 2 for sure? Or have I not noticed that there are 2 weekend origin games now?

Missing 1 likely 2 with a rest would make teddy the choice for sure

I think Teddy gets rested at least once, so if that was the case he only misses an extra game. I'd probably go Teddy mate personally.

Origin 2 this year is on a Sunday - there's no NRL that weekend, standalone weekend.

If Roosters continue on their current way, I would think Robinson would rest them all again this year at least one game, probably similar to last season, in the round after game 3. That's just a guess though.

Both will be keepers but I agree teddy scares me not having more than RTS does

But still misses games for 1 and 3 no? Then potentially 1 extra for a rest. That’s where I got my 3-1 from

Argh - yeah I stuffed up. Meant to say origin players miss 2 games. They only miss one *extra* game than non origin players*

*pending coach decision to rest/injury/etc/blahblah

Reversed my cs9 trade for Martin based on that video.

Anthony Seibold confirms James Segeyaro will make his Broncos debut against Roosters tomorrow night. Decision on whether Alex Glenn (illness) plays will be made after training this morning.

I would be scared too but I already have him. Tedesco is in top form for the top club which has scored the most points in attack.

Its simple really. If Teddy and RTS suddenly swapped clubs, you'd bring in RTS over Teddy.

I reckon Tedesco outscores RTS even with the additional games missed, although it looks like both will be in the top 3 wfb. I'll probably look at CNK to RTS after round 12.

You reckon? Teddy was still pretty good at the Tigers. Although the Warriors aren't the Tigers lol.
