2018 NRL.com Fantasy Thread Part 55

Expectant mothers will be naming their sons Latrell.

Dragons fans just got a look at their future, Ben Hunt will go to water as soon as their season is on the line

Cook copped a bit of friendly fire there too.

Stressful 5 mins. My jaw hurts from clenching!

Need an error from the blues here and they don't look like making one.

silly shit, the moment the jet got binned, we should have been able to set up camp on the goal-line until we scored or the hooter went, but without the calm of the big 4 every-one was going for the big hero play and lost the plot

NSW played well. QLD did not play well, especially when it mattered.

Well done, NSW.

Changes for game 3?

Ben Hunt gone, if nothing else than for that horrendous kick that all but sealed the game for the blues, and while we're talking about unnecessary kicks, Chambers can fuck off too, Gagai into centre, Oates on the wing, and fuck it, if its a dead rubber, why not give Ash Taylor a shot to see what he can bring to the table?

Said in other thread, NSW pretty much the same. QLD maybe Ofahengue but also Ash Taylor for Hunt and a new hooker, Macca been a disappointment but Granville and Friend aren't on form either. But Hunt & Macca could become relevant for Rnd 18.

Welcome to my weekends.

No injuries from either team that I could see. Maybe cordner the only one in doubt for the chooks v storm game

I think Macca is gone as well. Tough decision though

Macca was fine. You gonna put Friend or Granville in over him? Pfft!!

Interesting Wallace didn't come back on. Arrow needs more minutes, a lot more. Ofa could be a good shout.

Again, hard to see Kev dropping Hunt. Time will tell.

You are on the money mate. From what we saw anyway I think.

Walters playing Ponga in the line for 60 minutes was a mistake. Not that he made a lot of mistakes but he's going to be effective in bursts.

If Granville was on the sort of form he was in a couple of years ago then yes - offers something different for defenders to worry about. Friend, no, he'd be an inferior version of Macca. Not sure there are any other options.
