2017 NRL.com Fantasy thread part 12

Fractured thumb, what time frame we looking at? Have to look what DPPs i have as my FRF stocks are rubbish in fantasy. Can hold him in VSDT and SC but pretty screwed here

Fantasy aside maybe Jason Taylor won't be the first coach to get the sack this year. Rabbitohs are in trouble with Reynolds and Inglis out for a few weeks. AJ to fullback, Burns onto the wing?

Wallace hasn't even played yet and already you are thinking about trading him out?

Why did you pick him if he is going to be gone next week?

Cash for Fifita upgrade obvs.

He's a bit under done as he never played the last 2 trials. I think he played about 40 mins approx. He's only going to get better & as he gets more match fitness his mins should raise to 45-50 because as you said he'll will be the alpha prop.

KBrom my lowest scorer on 38, but a bit disappointing as a lot of scores in the 40s where I was after 50s

Didn't get Talakai in the end, which I might regret. Musgrove did well too

Wish no injury to anyone but always wanted a decent opportunity for Welch to get decent minutes...

Come on down lad!

Tigers sent everything down the left side to attack Inglis and his dodgy knee, so Moses got a little bit less ball than he might normally get.
At least he got the try to get his score up

Anyone think the J-Brom injury will have an affect on Smith's scores. Smith picks up a lot of points when he skirts from dummy half & hits J-Brom resulting in tba's, lba's & ta's.

Me too mate, lowest score 38 for KBrom and Brailey. gotta be happy with that even with npr of suli.

Learned my lesson starting with him last year

Cheers for talking me into Musgrove, mytv also, he's a great player.  best prop in our awful forward pack.  I'd expect him to keep his starting spot without a doubt.  Hopefully he does build up to more minutes.

I don't know why Madge has some sort of loyalty towards the likes of Tyrrell, Clark and Turgess, they are awful.  Turner sucked but getting moved out didn't help.  Rochow is adding nothing and Sutton was okay but needs to lead more.  Surgess just getting the cobwebs out I think.  I'd expect Gurgess to come back in and Angus definitely should get a bench spot over any of the 3 assholes on there.  Finding a balance between Farah and Cook will be tough too. And Luke Kelly never should have been in the team, he is just terrible.

I guess the old saying so far of 'you get what you pay for' isn't really ringing true except Teddy which I didn't really give a thought of bringing in.  I finished the year with Nofo too, wish I started with him, but those backs won't be doing what they did tonight every week.

Musgrove was on 14 at h/t. I think he played about 22 mins in the 2nd half resulting in 25 points. He's a bit of a beast in size & reminds me of a mix of the 2 Saifiti bro's.

2 common picks there so you won't have lost out if they scored less than you would have liked which is good, and it would have been a bold move to start with Suli although a few on here did

You POD princess you! 

Great luck TBH with JBrom injury but masterstroke now 35-40 most weeks with 50 minutes for $189,000. Bargain

Sutton went well scoring 58 points. He actually looked quite good.

Starting the season with Jacks and Suli looking good so far. Hoping they stick around for a bit.
Please Kelly continue where the majority have left off.

He came off at either the 18th or 19th minute. And yeah spot on, came back in at 57th-58th.

It was him or Danny Fualalo as I expected them both to pick up this year. So glad I went with Welch
